prus.Ian Guard LONG Famous.

The history of the Prussian Guard,
cream OF Germany's fighting men.
which was smashed by the headlong
attack of American troops Mt the Sec
ond Battle of the Marine, dates back
to the latter part OF the Seventeenth
Century, when men believed In the
divine rights of kings. and the troops
OF the guard could be depended on to
protect the sacred body Of their SOW
ereign when all other supporters fell
away.
The Prussian Guard was once a
company of archers. known as the
Trabant Guards. II was transformed
into a real fighting force by Frederick
William !. Drill with him was ruling
passion and he lavlshed much .atten-
ton ON his guard; securing Europe for
giants, as no man under six feet In
height could enter his pet regiment.
This requirement was abolished by
Frederick the Great. who cared only
for fighting ability. The stirring ex-
ample of Napoleon's Imperial Guard
caused the Prussian organization to be
increased In size, and 1t now comprises
complete army corps. Into Its ranks
go the cream OF EACH years class OF
Prussian recruits.

HUNS in STUBBORN

PARIS. Aug. i4-While the Germans
nave regalned their equilibrium in Pi-
cardy, at least temporarily, and appar-
emily are determined to make a stand
on the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. line,
they are showing unusual jumpiness on
the whole front.
They are trying, by small raids for
prisoners and perslstant air reconnOis-
ance, to find out where Marshal Foch's
next punch will land. On widely sep
arated fronts they are seeking to as
certain what new dose the Allies are
mixing for them and where It will be
administered.
Meanwhile FOch Is keeping them up
In the air by exerting strong pressure
at vital points In the German line.
Military experts are specializing as to
whether Foch viii exploit his gains in
Picardy TO the utmost by another at
tack or will merely keep the enemy
busy there while delivering another
blow elsewhere. Most Of them are In
cllned to the latter velw, pointing out
that thereby the Allies would retain
the all-lmpoFtant initiative and would
use up a maximum number OF German
reserves by keeping them racing up ana
down behind The lines.
Although in a new Allied drive prob
ably less territory would be gained, IL
would save man power and not give
the Germans a chance to prepare TO de-
liver their autumn death blow to the
ALLIES" Therefore, French military
writers favor a succession Of quick
hard blows at various places.

front. This operation Is now fully un-

which give this section It's name Of

The advance Is careful, because of
the great quantities Of mustard gas
with which the Germans flooded the de-
pressons and their abandoned trenches

The French line Is Of a saw tooth

By The United Press.

WASHINGTON, Aug. i4.-A diplo-
matio break between Spain and Ger
many is held to be probable in Allied
and neutral diplomatic circles here.
but Spain as an actual cOmbatant is
considered unlikely.
Official dispatches from London,
Paris and Rome report a grave crisis
at Madrid and throughout Spain. De-
tails Of the cables widely differ. The
consensus Of opinion at the three en-
tente capitals is that a severance Of
relations between the two nations may
be forced. but that there is little likeli-
hood Of Spain actually fighting.
The food shortage, reported to have
attained the proportions of a famine
In the centers Of population, is declared
to have precipitated the growing dis
satisfaction OF the Spanish people.
Spain has completely exhausted her
stock Of many staple foods. The Span
ish see that the French and Italians.
although actually at war. are faring
better in many respects.
The diplomats point out that this
dissatisfaction has been present in
Spain for months, but that the en-
couragement Of the recent Allied VIC
tories brought It to the surface.
An official Rome cable suggests that
the Spanish cabinet is likely TO decide
upon immediate energetic action"
against Germany. Il is declared that
the ettltude Of the Spanish government
and people in regard to Germanys sub
marine campaign has become increas-
ingly bitter.
Diplomats are inclined to believe that
Spain's first step would be to put all
the ships Of the kingdom now detained
in port on account of the submarine
menace on the high seas to bring food
to the stricken populace. A demand
upon Germany TO spare the ships prob
ably would be made simultaneously.
The Spanish embassy is without ad-
vices concerning the food or the poll
tlcal situation in Spain although II Is
that the Spanish government
hopes TO effect arrangements as soon
as possible TO enable lt 10 make full
