German soldiers believe that Germany is not planning any more offensives he- cause 'of the man power shortage, ac cording to one of the German pris oners cultured by the Americans early Sunday east of Fisraes. The prisoner saKV the German soldiers no longer had' any enthusiasm for war. Most of those with whom he came in contact believed the war would end soon. The prisoner had been fighting three years and declared he was thoroughly tired of it. He said the soldiers understand that the German losses during the recent allied offen sives had been very great. These re ports were credited by the soldiers and) were having a demoralizing ef fect. He said he knew of one divis ion of 15,000 which had been reduc ed to less than 1000. Plenty of Germans, he added, would desert and surrender if given the opportunity. Many of them are constantly watching for a chance to give themselves up. Trouble has been threatened In the German munition plants and the army leaders were tightening conditions there. Germany, he said, has plenty of ammunition but the man power ques tion and the actual entry of Ameri can troops Into the fighting are wor rying the military leaders. MASONS ATTENTION.
