"At present everything appears

Asked what In his opinion, was
the turning point of the war, be
said:
"1 was convinced early In October.
1914. that we had lost the war. I
considered our position hopelesa
after the battle of the Ma me, which
we should not have lost if the chiefs
of our general staff hud not suf
fered n ease of nerves.
"1 tried to persuade the general
staff to seek peace then, even at a
great sacrifice, going so far as to give
up Alssce-Loralne. But I wnt told
to mind my own business, and con
fine my activities to commanding
my armies. I have proof of this."
What finally brought about the
downfall of the German military
power, he declared, wns revolution
induced by four years of hunger
among the civilians and the troops
In the rear, together with the over

tained by the entente powers since
America's entry Into the war, which
had iinderminsal the confidence of

"My soldiers, whom I loved and
with whom I lived continuously, and
who, if I say so, loved nie, fought
with the utmost courage to the end,
even when tho odds were Impossible
to withstand." the refugee prince
went on. "They had no rest, and
sometimes an entire division num

are threatened with citations to ap

failed to live up to the law In regard
to reporting contagious diseases. This
warning bus been sent mil and It will
