Cologne Zeitung argues against Generals Blume and Liebert by citing statistics to say the United States cannot send 806,000 troops to Europe in a month. It notes sunk troop ships and praises the regular army plus volunteers from New England as the core fighting force. It warns that limits appear once 250,000 to 260,000 picked men are used, after which replacement becomes difficult.
