 General Ludendorff in concluding his memorandum points out that by counter-batt work not only is the enemy's artillery destroyed or put out of action, but the opponent is forced to a considerable extent to turn his attention away from the doings of the enomys infantry which is thus able to manoeuvre with greater ease.

FRENCH FRONT Correspondence of Associated Press)-General Luden- dorff regarded by the Entente Allies as the master mind of the German army pays an unintentionai compliment to the accuracy of French artillerymen in a memorandum issued to the troops on October 1, which has just been made available to the correspondent of The Associated Press.

Godfrey Hilton tossed penny on
the counter, caught up newspaper
and hurried into the waiting car. He
opened his paper, and after finishing
an article, was about to turn the page
when he heard a smOthered and dis
appointed "Oh" beside him. He turned
and discovered that he was sitting be-
sports clothes, carrying tennis
racquet. Her golden hair curled about
her face bewitchingly she turned her
head so quickly that Hilton received
only the tiniest glimpse Of blue eyes,
he opened the paper to where 1t was

what had so interested the beautiful
stranger. His search was of no avail,
however. and soon the girl got off.
Nearing his stop, and turning to press
the button, Hilton noticed postcard
lying on the next seat addressed to
the firm of which he was an employe.
He picked 1t up, slipped 1t into his
pocket and promptly forgot all
about 1t.
At his club several hours later while
he was smoking his after-dinner cigar
Hilton's mind wandered to the girl on
the car. Thoughts of her reminded
him of the card which probably she

In German prison camps and include
the crews of German raiders and
prizes, in addition to the crew of the
German submarine PISS. These pris-
oners have been treated with degree
of liberality that has caused adverse
ed contrast to the treatment said to
be accorded prisoners in Germany.
One difficulty in the way of retalia-
ton. it is said, is that it might lend
color to the stories of American cruel
ties told by the German military COM
manders to their troops to deter them
from deserving. That such stories have
been told has been testified to by pris-
oners taken by General Pershing's men.
Difficulty Expected.
1t was said at the state department
that much difficulty is expected in
ascertaining the facts concerning the
condition of American prisoners in
Germany. Former Ambassador Ger
ard, who was charged with British
and French interests at Berlin before
the United States entered the war,
found it almost impossible to learn
real conditions in German prison
camps because he was permitted TO
see only such of the camps and such
parts of them as the Germans chose
to exhibit.
The state departments inquiry will
extend to the charges that American
prisoners have not been allowed to re-
ceise the packages of food and cloth
ing sent Them by the American Red
Cross and which under the rules of
war, they are entitled to receive.
