With the French Armies, March 81
Copies of the Frankfurter zeituna
have just reached the French front
containing joint interview granted by
Hindenburg and Ludendorff in honor
of having forced Russia to sign
peace
Whilst loudly generating Prus
sian militarism from all blame for
the Russian catastrophe, the two
German generals in precisely the
breath threaten France with a SINH
lar fate unless she also makes peace.
Extracts from the interview, pre-
ceded by an explanation by journ-
alist who secured it, are as follows !:
1--WE have been able to interview
Field Marshal Hindenburg. He has
ascertained that thanks to the sign
ing of peace on the east the blockede
of our enemies is now broken.
"It is the excellent moral of the
German soldier that we owe this sue
cess. 1t is necessary that we think
of that and repeat it without ces-
sation. / owe that to my soldiers" !"
said Hindenburg.

much violence in the east"

wants a great many statisticians, ac
