New-York tribune., 1922-05-04

Since November II. 1918, General
Ludendorff has been 0usy explaining
to his countrymen that he didn't lose
the war. He has written six thick
volumes and scores OF letters and
articles defending himself 1t has
been uphill work, however The facts
are against him. German opinion is
no longer misled by his efforts to
throw the blame for German defeat on
other shoulders.
A few weeks ago Professor Hans
Delbrueck. the eminent historian, a
pillar Of Prussian conservatism, pub
lishcd book entitled Ludendorff's S
Selbstportraet' C'Ludendorf Painted
By Himself'). 1t was scathing
analysis Of the Quartermaster Cen
erals bundering war policy. Luden-
dortf, De)brueck SAYS, was not Mill
tary genius. His talents sufficed for
limited military tasks, but not for the
great strategic combinations and con-
ceptions which the unprecedented scale
of q world way required, especially
not in situations in which he inter-
yered in politics, for which he had no
competency at ALL
Dclbrueck's judgment cannot be
eainsaid. 1t is that of the most in
telligent students cf the war in all
countries. Specifically, Ludendortf
lost the war for Germany by insisting
on renewal of unrestricted sub
marine warfare in the carly winter Of
1917, thus forcing the United States
in. Russia was then on the verge of
revolution and it is exceedingly i'm
probable that after Russia's detection
the Entente powers could have de-
feated Germany without American aid.
Ludendorf has never been able to
justify this fatal move. He beat down
Bethmann-H -Hollweg's opposition to it..
Most Germans now admit that the
Chancellor was right and he was
wrong But the Quartermaster Gen
eral himself balks at admitting it.

New-York tribune., 1922-05-04

In his Atlantic" article Ludendor5
tries to show once more that his
gamble was sound strategy. But he
is less self-confdent and aggressive
than he once was. He used to argue
that the American reinforcement did
not defeat Germany, but that defeat
came through a breakdown in civil ad-
ministration at home He spoke dis
paragingly of the American troops in
France. AS late as October II, 1918,
he told war council in Berlin: ave
must not overrate the Americans. They
are certainly smart. But we have
beaten them hitherto even when we
were very inferior IN numbers. Our
men are not anxious about the Ameri-
cans; they are about the English
Writing for Americans about the
American effort, he is more conds-
scending. He reverses his earlier
Judgment on the value of the Amerl-
can divisions which took part in
Foch's offensive of July Is, 1918, on the
west side of the Msrne salient. "TheN
attack to the southwest of Scissors
which was delivered by the lst and "a
| Divisions. so far as l remember-wss
decisive" he says. Also: The more
during the next months, the Ameri-
cans fought without assistance the
more their tactical and strategical ef-
hciency grew"
These compliments are novelties IN
the Ludendorffian literary output j
is less of shock, therefore, to hho
the General admitting that "at tins
end Americas interference in France
and at the same time the growing
propaganda, made the Allies win the
war"
But if America won the war wns'
becomes of Ludendorff's contention
that he didn't lose it by Sorcihs
America into it? That was his carol'
nal miscalculation. In turning to az
tack Great Britain in 1917 and at 'h0
same time challenging America NJ
and Hindenburg departed from th'
basic principle of German strategy
which was to seek a decision IN INV
East They were "Easterners.' Ihes
lacked the vision to remain Eastern
ers." Thus they lost the war. /.
