CROWN PRINCE STILL IN RETREAT
Kaiser Bolsters Up Army and Navy by Tell
ing Them Not to be Frightened as
U-Boats will Win.

| TBy William Philip Simms. United
Press staff Correspondent
WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, Aug. 1.-THE Heart Bowed
Down" Is the German tune nowadays
German officers and men taken pris-
oner near Merris, Morlancourt and
last Of Amiens are extremely depress-
ed as a result of the crown princes
failure and General Foch's staggering
reply to Ludendorff.
After the first few weeks of the Ger
man offensive | declared the German
morale to be hish---highcr than at any
time. They strutted then inside the
prison cages as if they already owned
the world. They replied even to kind
" treatment with contemptuous and
understanding smiles. They sneered
at American fighters and jeered at
American help.
Today, | believe It Is equally true,
that the German soldier afieid is more
deeply depressed than at any priod.
Prisoners admit supplies are low and
that ammunition is not plentiful.
They say 1t is very difficult to OBJ
tain recruits to fill the ranks Of worn
down divisions. Food, they report, is
getting scarcer. Instead Of smashing
victory they now long for immediate
peace. Events are going against them
while the allies are growing stronger
with each week.
Slowly the truth seems to be seep-
Ing into the German lines. They are
beginning to hear that the Americans
not only are we'll represented on the
west front, but are also beating the
best Prussian troops. They have heard
that the crown prince is reirine In
stead Of advancing and that Prince
Rupprecht's offensive against .he Brit
ish was postponed because Of this
and other factors.
From the statements Of prisoners
Come Of them obviously feared that
the British would assume the often
sve. In short, they are very unhap-
py.
have seldom seen the front 80
quiet as it has been here. Save for
British sheIIing and the spasmodic
bursts Of German shells the front re-
,embles Sunday afternoon in a eoun-
ny church yard.
Seven AIrpIanes Lost
