400 GERMANS
TAKEN CAPTIVE
American Barrage Prevent
ed Their Flight from
Belleau Wood
PRISONERS GLAD
TO BE CAPTURED
1t Is Biggest Bag of Prison
ers United States Has
Had in so Years

With the American Army in France,
Wednesday, June l2,-tBy the Associa.
ted Press The excellence Of the Amer
lean artillery fire was largely responsible
for the capture by American marines of
approximately 400 prisoners in the fight
ing which resulted in the clearing out of
the Belleau wood, northwest of Chateau
Thierry. The Germans, who had been
told TO avoid capture because the Amer
leans would torture them, started to run
after the American machine gunners had
made the wood untenable, but the artil-
lery barrage was so perfect that the Ger
mans were cut off from escape.
Among the prisoners are six officers, a
major, captain and four lieutenants.
All were poorly clad and some had pieces
OF bread tied to their uniforms with
string. The prisoners said they were
glad TO be captured and several ex-
pressed a desire to go to the United
States after the war to live.
All of Germsny's plans, they said,
called for ending the war next fall. The
prisoners were told, they said, that the
Americans had many negroes opposing
them.
The scarcity OF officers IN the Herman
army is shown by the fact that one Of
the prisoners, a first sergeant, command
ed a company. He said this was a com.
mon thing now. All the prisoners ex-
pressed admiration for the fighting quail
ity of the Americans. A barn in which
the prisoners were confined to-day in
the rear of the American lines held more
prisoners of war than the United States |
has had in one building at any time in |
more than fifty years.

FORD P[AuT IS BUSY
PRICE IS UNCHANGED
Day-Richmond Dealers Soon TO
Make Deliveries.

According to efhomas ~ Hearn.
vice. president of the Universal Motor
company. who returned from Detroit
this week. the Ford situation shows
considerable Improvement.
Although the manufacture Of Ford
cars was not resumed until Novem-
Der B this year the plant liz already
turning out 1000 cars a day and ex-
peciations are that within the next
three months the output will be up
to normal, or 5000 cars a day.
The dealers here all have cars on
the road now and will he in position
10 make deliveries some time this
month. However. they will receive
1wst one-fourth of their, usual allot-
ment until the Ford plant resumes
normal production.
. There is little or no likelihood Of
a reduction in'the price of Fords,
despite the many .rumors to this
effect. Labor and materials are Just
AZ high, il not higher, than they were
when the production of Fords was
stopped and until these values are
lowered prices will remain the same
From all indications there will be
r no changes in the Ford models this
