GERMAN RANKS
DESIRE PEACE
OFFICER SAYS

(By Associated Press)

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRANCE, Aug. 6-Documents Of the
most significant character, indicating
that recent events have brought about
an extremely marked state Of depres-
sion in the German army have fallen
into the hands of the British.
Most significant of all perhaps is
an extract from a German officers
diary in which he relates he had been
asked by the divisional headquarters
whether the troops in the line favored
peace or a continuation OF the war.
his answer being: Immediate peace
or an immediate decisive battle"
This entry was dated before the
German drive for the Marine began.
Urged to shirk.
Hardly less important is q letter
taken from German prisoner. 1t was
written to him by another German
stationed along the Marne. It reads:
"You will be in the thick Of 1t now.
Shirk as much as you can. Do not bo
stupid. We are risking our lives only
for big victories. New we are taking
the offensive on the Marine and We
will never get out Of this mess at all.
Our regiment has been nearly wiped
out and we have not pushed far. The
war is becoming a greater massacre
than ever. What is going to happen
don't know. Germany is slowly
crumbling to pieces"
Hear Rumor Of Losses.
Another prisoner just captured on
the British front says that the official
figures show that $4,000 OF his COM
Champagne fighting, but that rumor
along this front is that 10000 Germans
and 500 guns were lost.
Adding to the gloom of his division,
which realizes that Germany has suf-
fered a great defeat, the prisoner said
the food given the men was very poor.
He said that poor rations had been
especially noticeable for the last three
months. The only time that good food
is served, he said. is before the Ger
mans are to participate in an Of
fensive.
