made a study of the American
soldier' while they were fighting
against them, and winnowed the
various reports down to- con
ercte conclusions, and these re-
ports ought to be not only illu-
minating, but- interesting as
well. Here are some of them:
The first observation that the
major read was that the “Amer- . —
icans are very brave and active, to meet with these committees
but highly "tempermental." The
major was afraid that I would
not understand what was meant
by tempermntal. I said "like a
prima donna,", and the major

“Our genera l staff observed

oys. The divisions recruited
-om the cities were quite poor
hen compared to those from

“Your prairie boys as you call
hem, the boys from the agiicul-
iral communities generally and
■om the South and West made
he best soldiers."
The major said the German.,
rrarded the American negro
ldiers as quite inferior to the
'ack troops the French brought
om Africa.
“Our old soldiers liked to light
our American blacks," he said.
"They knew they had an easy

'ere afraid of the blacks. be-
cause they thought the negroes
vould eat them."

which resulted in a severe slau-

skillful handling would have

It was further" noted on the
records that the Americans
"eould be relied on to advance
with the greatest bravery, but
most clumsily. Their waves of
attack would invariably run to-
gether and form a mass, making
" a fine target for the German
guns. Alao, they would race
