AMERICANS AS FIGHTERS.
Official Opinion of Germans as Ex-
nressed Before Aruonne Attack.

pressed 6e1ore HF9oH1S HseaSn'
The German military report on the
offensive operations of the American
troops at st. Mihiel has come into the
possession of the American First army
corps. Here are some extracts from
report that the Americans flight to
the last and do not put up their hands
and surrender.
"At least nine American divisions
took part under the command of Gen.
Pershing. OF these nine divisions there
were three-the 1st, End and AID
first class attacking divisions; two, the
4th and the 26th, good fighting diVl-
sions which had already shown their
work in other large attacks.
The attack was preceded by four
hour artillery preparation, in addition
to q short trench mortar lombard
ment. The shooting Of the batteries
was very good, not only on the front
trenches but also on all the communl-
cation and rear areas. The
initial attack was carried out accord
ing to schedules, but the successive
waves showed great ineptitude in fol-
lowing up the advance. Officers as
well as men did not understand how
to make of the terrain. Instead Oh
seeking protection when they encount-
cred opposition they merely fell back.
To crawl backward or forward on the
ground. or to advance in quick jumps,
does not seem to be understood by the
Americans. They return lying on the
ground for the time being and then
lust stand up again and try to ad-
vance. Neither in mass formation nor
individually do the Americans know
how to conduct themselves in an at
tack. They are unquestionably brave.
They are evidently afraid of being
captured. When capture impends,
however, they fight to the last and do
not put up their hands.
The Americans showed themselves
skilled in the use of machine guns
In defense they are very tenacious.
The conduct of the infantry seems to
show a lack of military training. The
artillery preparation was well carried
out,
1.-THE leadership was uaskilled and
The enemy apparently has
many officers at his disposal, but the
elements of leadership are lacking.
Their embarrassment was unmistakable
after obtaining their initial success.
They remained helpless on their line
and were unable to take full advan-
tage of their victory. The French, In
the same position, would have been
much more dangerous. After the in
fantry had reached it's objective the
higher command failed. 1t
was therefore possible for the army
detachment (the Germans), under the
most difficult conditions, to extricate
itself from it's precarious situation In
one night. ." The American is
very amateurish, and therefore not to
be feared in a large attack"

written very shortly before the Amer

Next the deadliness Of rife grcnadcs,
the regular service type used by the

was demonstrated. Then came the dis
play of trench mortars in action.
Machine guns were emplaced at each
end Of the trench section, and these
went into action when the tank feet,
consisting of three monster machines
and six "babies," came down tho road.
AS they approached anti-aircraft guns
began barking, and paper bombs were
fired to initiate shrapnel, with thcil
powder puff bursts.
AS the tanks swung off the road
on to the parade and made for the
trench parapet successive layers Of
phosphorus bombs were set off, screen

blue smoke The defenders leaped over
bombs.
The tanks climbed part way over

Mimic Battle in Park for L0an:
Monster Tanks Attack Trenches

A day and night battle show, with
active. battle sector in France, was
given at Van Cortlandt Park yesterday
afternoon and last night by the Trench
Warfare Division Of the Ordnance De
partment and the Chemical Warfare
Service. There will be rcpetitions,
afternoon and evening, day and to-
morrow, with the climax on Sunday, in
the "VictorW Panorama" when from
the asscmblagc of great guns, tanks,
tractors and trucks now at the park
there will be selected for display down
town a sample of every instrument Of
destruction weighing less than thirty
tons.
The Ordnance Department prepared
for its three day spectacle with much
of the secrecy of actual war For
several days it had been assembling
war material, from hand grcnadcs to
twelveinch howitzers and ninety ton
rifle, one of the monsters with I range
of thirty-six miles. Yesterday the
parade ground at 257th Street and
Broadway resembled the ordnance
park of an army corps preparing for
combat, with tanks of all sizes, mobile
repair shops, big sausage observa-
tion balloon, machine guns, trench
mortars, flame and gas projectors,
smoke screen machines and aerial
bombs. And most of these, excepting
the heavy guns and the balloon, which
was not sent aloft on account of the
prevailing gale, were used in the show.
Tanks in Big Attack
The battle spectacle itself which
began at 2:30 o'clock, might have been
called "Threc Hours at Vimy Ridge"
with the realism lesscncd only by the
fact that some of the fighting men
veterans of the 63d regulars, too
stood erect before machine guns, while
tanks were attacking their strip Of
trench between the ridges that flank
the neck Of the park parade grounds.
These ridges rang throughout the
afternoon with the crack of three, four
and sX-inch Stokes mortars and the
explosions Of the trench bombs, which

crawling down the road. skirting the
