LONDON, Aug. british Admir-
atty Wireless).-In February, 1917.
Admiral Won Capelle. Secretary OF
State for the German navy, permitted
himself the unwise luxury OF
prophecy. He said:
From a military standpoint, I re-
gard the effect on our enemies Of the
entry into the war OF the United
States as nil. First OF all, the Oft
mentioned hundreds OF thousands Of
volunteers will have to be found in
America Suppdsing even that hun
dreds OF thousands of men are readily
gathered in America, how caa they
possibly get to England? II they did
contrive to secure the men what a
magnificent quarry they would offer
to our U boats"
The Breslau volks Zeitung per-
forms the unkindly act OF recalling
the admirars words, and adds:
To-day there are many hundred
thousand Americans on French soil,
and Of the American transports
which conveyed these troops not a
single one has been torpedoed
Heaven save US in the future from
these prophets. even II they wear
an admirars coat"
The Arbeiter Zeitung also calls at
tention to the American menace. II
says:
THE Americans are visibly having
more and more effect on the Allies
military position. as well as on the
political situation. From various and
latest sources OF information II is moi
possible to doubt that a million Amer
