Gen. Goethals will have sole di-
rection of the transport of troops and
supplies, and he was present to find
out what could be assured him in
tonnage. The problem of supplies,
warehouses and storage depots al
ready had been considered by the
War Department and the only ques-
tion was that of ships. This subject
was of vital interest to the whole
world, and was discussed at length.
Changes Plans.
An important paper prepared by MIR.
Franklin in which the number, tyne,
tonnage and characteristics Of ves-
sells which should be included in the
shipbuilding program, was read and
discussed at the opening Of the con-
ference.
Gen. Goethals then presented the
War Departments estimate of the
number Of vessels required by the
shipbuilding program, the speed
which they should have, and the time
OF delivery. and this subject took up
the rest Of the time of the conference.
Mr.. Schwab gave to the conference
MS experience in war work and used
the Bethlehem Steel Company to H.
lustrate his point. He said that they
could have turned out guns and
shells more rapidly for this govern
ment If they had been permitted to
manufacture them after the British
and French models which they had
been manufacturing instead of build
ing new machinery for turning out
new types of guns and ammunition.
In view of this experience, Mr..
Schwab said that he was strongly
of the opinion that the less changes
made in the existing plans the bet
ter it would be for speeding up and
carrying out the shipbuilding pro-
gram. His view met unanimous
approval and was accepted as a
fixed policy of the Emergency Fleet

GERMAN MORALE
NOT ASLOW AS
WAS REPORTED
American Officer Who In
spects Prisoners Believes
Reports Exaggerated.

American Headquarters in France,
Tuesday. Sept. 24.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press).-Concrete informa-
ton obtained from thousands of pris-
oners taken by the Americans in re-
cent operations not indicate an
a~ppreciable breakdown of German
morale according to examining off,
Ger. 1t is true that individuals occa-
sionally say they are glad they are
captured and that they are tired OF
fighting, hungry and badly treated,
but officers point out that the same
is possibly true of Allied prisoners
taken by the Germans after several
days of bombardment.
1t is explained that a mans morale
is naturally at the lowest cbb at the
moment Of capture and is usually
shaken by fighting exposure, fatigue
and possibly the lack of food. At
such times men are inclined to say
things which they would retract after
rest and n~ourishment. Great value
utterances rejecting on the r con-
ditions in the German army and
among the people. At any rate the
authorities say that the number Of
Germans uttering such sentiments is
not great.
Many thousands Of prisoners are
now in the hands Of h Americans
and this number is being constantly
increased by incessant raids. Some
of these men maintain silence They
refuse to reply to questions on any
subject or say that Germany is far
from defeat. They usually maintain
a soldierly bearing AND sullenly re-
sent capture. The correspondent has
seen and inspected hundreds Of pris-
oners. Those captured lately meas
ure up well with the usual standard.
Men over or under the normal mill
tary age are found, but the same is
true of other European armies long
at war, whose personnel it is unfair
to by the high physical
standard of the fresh American
troops. From a great mass of di-
gested prisoner information and OBJ
servations from other sources, mill
tary authorities say they find the en-
envy we'll fed and well clothed. While
his morale is not as high as it was
early in the summer, he is far from
losing his fighting qualities n spir-
it. This was recently demonstrated
in the bitter fighting along the
Marine. at St. Mihiel and st. Quentin.
Study Of captured material shows
that the German soldiers clothing is
Of good quality and is plentiful.
Their rations r generous and nu-
T tritious, which is testified to by
American soldiers who ate rations
taken from the dead and wounded
when their rapid advance round st.
Mihiel carried them beyond reach of
their supply kitchens. German arms
ore always well kept and there is a
vast supply.

Risberg Addresses Meeting.

Amsterdam. Sept. 25.-General Won
Risberg addressed the main commit
tee Of the reichstag on behalf of the
minister Of war. He explained, ac-
cording t6 a telegram from Berlin,
that the failure of the German often
sive on the western front was due to-
the failure Of the German army to
surprise the Entente Allies and the
necessity of assuming the defensive on
the arrival of the English home army
in the. theater of war; to the employ
ment OF colored troops and to the in
tervention of American divisions.
