Still FEAR GERMANY
:
Nation Potentially Dangerous,
Mangin Tells Correspondent.
Americans as Good Fighters as Any.
French Free From Idea :.
of Revenge. :

Mainz.-General Mangin, at his
headquarters In the palace Of the
Grand Duke Of HesSe, said:
Germany Is still untrustworthy and
potentially dangerous It's army Is
again taking up arms and its officers
resuming their functions, and we must
take no chances. The occupation must
last a very long time"
Indicative of the fact that General
Mangin Is taking no chances, he told
the correspondent that he IS now
working harder than ever, doing war
work until 2 a. NJ. night after night
He added:
at is the same old Germany. The
armistlce came too soon. The war
should have continued at the very
least a week longer In another week
I should have been in Metz and the
following week on the Rhine"
General Mangin praised the. Anrerf-
Cdu lIol, oeSollu anu IiiA - Ntiiiio ~
visions, which fought under him. He
said there were no better troops in
the world. His sole criticism was the
staff work, due to its ineXperlence.
The war ended before the American
army could unfold its real power, he
said, but all France knows what the,
American army would have done.
Pleading for q continuance OF tho
close friendship between America and
France General Mangir warned
against German propaganda. Ger
many's sole remaining hope he saida
ais to drive q wedge between the al
lies"
General Mangin praised the dlscfp-
line Of the troops attached to the
Mainz sector, saying all, including two
divisions from devastated northern
France, had entered Germany without
a thought Of revenge and had con-
dueted themselves toward the Ger
man populace accordingly, stating,
"There has not been a single COM
plant Of mistreatment to reach me-.
He added, however, that the Germans
were taking advantage Of the humani-
tartan Ieniency Of the French.
