LUDENDORFF RAPS Won
BERNS7oRFF, BERLIN PROBE

Berlin. Tuesday. Nov. 1S.-(By The
Associated Press. THE viciousness
of General Ludendorff's attack on
Count Won Bernstorq, the former
German ambassador al Washington.
was accentuated by the manner of
its delivery before the sub commit =
tee Of the National Assembly in
vesiigating war responsibility. He
denied Won Bernstorff's version of
the conversation between the two
previously introduced. and declared
that it touches my honor"
He then continued: "Bernstorq
and I are two persons of wholly diff
ferent temperaments. Our views are
strongly opposed to each other. He
is quite right if he assumes that
1 took an unsympaihetic view of his
work at Washington"
General Ludendorff charged Won
Bernstorq with failure to counterac1
the Entente propaganda and with
falsely appraising and Inadequate
ly reporting the American situation
to Wilhemstrasse.
I'VE took Americans prisoner" he
added, who had an entirely wrong
or vague conception Of what they
were fighting for"
Won Bernstorq appeared much sur
prised at Ludendorff's sudden out
burst. He rose and told the com
mittee that he did not propose TO
answer IN the same tone and man
ner. He added that his visit to
headquarters was the eventual re-
suit of casual suggestion 10 ac-
a1aintances of General Ludendorf.
whom he desired to acquaint with
the situation.

1t will he remembered that the 3G9th

Private Woods stated that one of his

that it will be several weeks before he
will be able to resume active connec

count for the light casualty list, un-
less it was due to the fact that the

Private Woods, who is only % years

President Wilson, Secretary of War
