ITfaMt THE ALAMANOE GLEANER. t ' «. .. . •: GEHWieUII urns HI WAR CONDUCT Atrocious Treatment of the Help less Part of Campaign Plans of Military Leaders. POLICY OF FRIGHTFULNESS Terrorism Declared a Necessary Prin ciple in National Warfare—Bru talities May Be Said to Be Dl. rectly Attributable to tha Emperor Himself. The committee on public infor mation, appointed by the president, and consisting of the secretary of state, secretary of war, secretary of the navy, and George Creel, official censor, has made public a mass of evidence dealing with Oerman war practices which shows the kaiser's leaders in the field and in command of captured points to be directly re sponsible for the beastliness which has characterized the operations of the "Huns," in the present conflict. Quotations from the pamphlet fol low: For many years leaders In every civ ilized nation have been trying to make warfare less brutal. The great land marks In thla movement are the Ge neva and Hague conventions. The for mer made rules as to the care of the sick and wounded and established the Red Cross. At the first meeting at Ge neva, in 1864, it was agreed, and until the present war it has been taken for grunted, that the wonnded, and the doc tors and nurses who cared for them, would be safe from all attacks by the enemy. The Hague conventions, drawn up In 1899 and 1907, made addi tional rules to soften the usages of war and especially to protect noncombat ants an(l conquered lands. Germany took a prominent part in these meet ings, and with the other nations sol emnly pledged her faith to keep all the rules except one article In the Hague regulations. This was article 44, which forbade the conqueror to force any of the conquered to give Informa tion. All the other rules and regula tions she accepted In the most binding manner. But Germany's military leaders had no Intention of keeping these solemn promises. They had been trained along different lines. Their leading generals for many years had been urg ing a policy of frlghtfulneas. In the middle of the nineteenth century Yon Olausewltz was looked upon as the greatest military authority, and the methods which he advocated were used by the Prussian army In Its successful wars est 1866-1871. Consequently be cause these warts had been successful, the wisdom of Von Clausewltz' meth ods seemed to the Prussian army to be fully proved. Policy of Frlghtfulneee. Now, the essence of Von Clausewltz' teachings was that successful war ln -volvee the ruthlesa application of force. In the opening chapter of' hl»' master work, "Vom Krlege" ("On War"), he eayßt "Violence arms Itself with the Inven tions of art and science. . . . Self- imposed restrictions, almost Impercep tible and hardly worth mentioning,' termed usages of International law, accompany It without essentially Im pairing Its power. . . . Now, philan thropic souls might easily Imagine that there ls a skillful method of disarm ing or subduing an enemy without causing too much bloodshed, and that this Is the true tendency of the art of war. However plausible this may ap pear, still It ls an error which must be destroyed; for in *uch dangerous things as war, the errors which pro ceed from a spirit of 'good-natured ne*s' are precisely the worst. A« the nse of physical force to the utmost ex tent by no means.excludes the co operation of the Intelligence, It follow* that he who uses force ruthlessly, with out regard to bloodshed, must obtain a superiority, if his enemy does not *o use it" In 1877-78, In the course of a series of articles upon "Military Necessity and Humanity," General von Hartmann wrote, ID the same spirit as Von Clau sewltz : "The enemy *t*te rau*t not be spared the want and wrAchednee* of war; these are particularly useful In shat tering Its energy and subduing It* wW," "Individual persons may be harshly dealt with when an example ls made of them, Intended to serve as a warn ing. . . . Whenever a national war breaks out. terrorism becomes a. nec essary military principle." "It Is a gratuitous illusion to suppose that modern war does not demand far more brutality, far more violence, and an action far more general than wa* for merly tbe case." In 1881 Von Moltke, who had been commander In chief of the Prnwlan army In tbe Franco-Prussian war, da dared: "Perpetual peace la a dream and not even a beautiful dream. War la an ele ment In the order of tbe world estab lished by God. By It the moat noble virtues of man are developed, courage and renunciation, fidelity to duty and the spirit of sacrifice —the soldier glvea his Ufa. Without war. the world would degenerate and torn Itself in material' Ism." "The soldier who endures raf ferlnc. privation and fatigue, who courts danger*, cannot take only In proportion to the reaonrce* of tb* country,' He must take all that ls nec essary to his existence. One has no right to demand of him anything super human." "Tbe great good In war la that It should be ended quickly. In view of this, every means, except those which are poaltively condemnable, rpust be permitted. I cannot. In any way, agree with tbe declaration of St. Petersburg when it pretends that the GRAHAM, N. C., THURSDAY, JANUARY IT. 1918 weakening of the military forces of the enemy' constitutes the only legitimate method of procedure In war. No I One most attack all the reaonrces of the enemy government, hla finances, his railroads, his stock of provisions and even Ma prestige. . . ." Many other examples might be cited from the writings of German general*. The very best Illustration of this atti tude, however, I* to be fonad la the emperor's various speeches, and espe cially In his speech to his soldiers on the eve of their departure for China In 1900. On July ST the kaiser went to Bremerhaven to bid farewell to the Oerman troops. As they were drawn up, ready to embark for China, he ad dressed to them a last official message from the fatherland. The local news paper reported his speech In full. In It appeared this advice and admonition from the emperor, the commander In chLef of the army, the bead of all Ger many: Soldiers Told to Be Merciless. "As soon as you come to blows with the enemy he will be beaten. No mercy will be shown! No prisoners will be taken 1 As the Huns, under King At tlla, made a name for themselves, which Is still mighty In tradition* and legends today, may the name of Ger man be so flied In China by your deed*, that no Chinese shall ever again dare even to look at a German askance. . . . Open the way for Kultur once for all." Even the Imperial councilors seem to have been shocked at the emperor's speech, and efforts were promptly made to suppress the circulation of his exact words. The efforts were only partly succOMul. A few weeks later, when the lettera from the German sol diers In China were being published, In local German papers, the leading socialist newspaper, Vdfwaerts, ex cerpted from them reports of atroci ties under the title "Letters of the Huns." Many of the leaders In the relchstag felt very keenly the ifhitaltty of the emperor's speech. The obnox ious word "Huns" had excited almost universal condemnation. When the relchstag met, In November, the speech was openly discussed. Herr Lleber of the center (Catholic party), after quot ing the "no mercy" portion of the speech, added, 'There are, alas, In Ger many groups enough who have regard ed the atrocities told In the letters which have been pnbllshed as the duti ful response of soldiers so addressed and encouraged." The leader of the social democrats, Herr Bebel, spoke even more pointedly. Toward tbe end of a two-htfur address on the atrocities committed by tbe German soldiers In China and on the speech of the em peror, he said: "If Germany wishes to be tbe bearer of civilization to the world, we will follow without contradiction. But the ways and means In which this world policy has been carried on thus far, In which It has been defined by the em peror \. , . are not, In our opinion, the way to preserve the world position of Germany, to gain for Germany the respect of tfte world." The consequences of the emperor's speech Bebel aptly described: "By It the signal was given, garbed In the highest authority of the German empire, which mußt hare most weighty consequences, not only for the troops who went to China but also for those who stayed at home. An expedition of revenge so barbarous as this has never occurred In the last hundred years and not often In history; at least, nothing worse thsn this baa hap pened In history, either done by tbe Huns, by the Vandals, by Genghis Khan, by Tamerlane, or even by Tilly when he sacked Magdeburg." , Atrocities In Chins. These atrocities in China or "Letters of the Hons" continued to be publletaed In the Vorwaeria for several years and appeared Intermittently In the debate* of the relchstag as late as 1906. At that time the socialist, Herr Kunert, reviewing the procedure in a trial of which he had been the victim In the previous summer, stated that he had offered to prove "that German soldiers In China had engaged In wanton and brutal ravaging; that plunder, pillage, extortion, robbery, as well as rape and sexual abuses of the worst kind, had occurred on a very large scale and that German soldiers had participated In them." He bad not been given an op portunity to prove his allegations, but had been sentenced to prison for three months for assailing the honor of the "whole German army." The out rageousness of this sentence was made eleae by the revelstlons, made In the relchstag shortly afterwards, of simi lar atrocities committed by German officials and soldiers In Africa In tbe campaign against the Hereros. For the guidance of the officers In case the Inhabitants of conquered ter ritory should take up arms against the German army, the "German War Book" quotes with approval tbe letter Napoleon sent to bis brother Joseph: The security of your dominion de pends on how yon behave In the con quered province. Burn down a dosen places which are not willing to sub mit themselves. Of course, hot until you have first looted them; my sol diers roust not be allowed to go away with their hands empty. Have three to six persons hanged Iv. every village which baa Joined the revolt; pay no respect to the cosanck" (that la, te members of the clergy). NEGRO SOLDIERS MAKE TROUBLE IN MONTOOMERY Montgomery, Ala.—Quick work by the military police, aided by Major John C. Fulton, commander of the Tenth training battalion (negroes), probably prevented serious troable when loma of the negro soldier* be came excited over the report that one of their comrade* had been captured by a mob and via being taken out to be lynched.

MMUK IS TO Hint TO HOMES ENFORCED FOOD CONSERVATION IN RESTAURANT PLANNED BV ADMINISTRATION. TO CRHTE LARGER SURPLUS Aliiee Need 75 to B0 Million Bushels of Wheat and Want Meat Exports Doubled—America to Export Only Savings. Washington.—Enforced food conser vatlon In reatanrants and exteoslon of anti-hoarding regulations to make them apply to the household are In cluded In the plans of the food admin istration for creating a larger export surplus of food for the allies. This was revealed In a statement by Food Administrator Hoover, setting forth that the allies are In need of an additional 75,000,000 to 90,000,000 bush els of wheat and that they have asked America to double meat export*. Only by further savlag, Mr. Hoover declar ed, can the food be shipped. There is no need for rationing In America, in Mr. Hoover'a opinion, and with the supplementary regulations there will be no shortages. To Export Only Savlnga. "We cannot-and will not export more than our savings, for our own people must also be fed," said ths statement. "The allies have reduced the bread ration to their people sharp ly the last few days and If this low ered ration Is to be maintained we must qave more than hitherto. "Every grain of wheat and every ounce of flour and bread saved now Is exactly that amount supplied to some man, woman and child among the allies. "We are asking the American peoplo to further reduce thelc consumption of wheat product* and use other food stuffs. It Is one of the vital Issues In winning the war that we must maintain the health and strength and morale of their men, women and chil dren over the winter. Further Program of Saving. ' "Our 48 state food administrators have been in session in Washington the last few days devising with us a further program of saving which wo will announce In a few days, in which we count with confidence on public support. »•- "We are goln gto ask the millions of devoted women who support tho food administration to see that our new proposals are carried out on every side. "Legislation is being considered by Mr. Lever and Senator Pomerene for presentation to Congress for some further extension of the Preeldsnt's powers to enforce conservation in manufacturing trades and In public eating places. Although the majority have co-operated willingly and effec tively there Is a minority which patri otic appeals do not seem to reech. With such regulation thero will be no shortagas and equal Justice to all. There Is no need of rationing in America." ONE KILLED AND SEVERAL INJURED AT CAMP WHEELER. Serious Propsrty Damage By Tornado In South. Macon, Ga. —A tornado, followed by a torrential rain, swept down upon Macon and vleinlty, killing one man and injuring several others and doing serious property damage In the city and at Camp Wheeler, near here.

It of which were blown down. It ws* estimated that 150 patients were in the tents but early reports from the camp aald there were no injuries. The collapse of the corral of the 122 nd Infantry caused the only death reported, that of Private Harris, o( Atlanta. After the tornado passed over the camp, Its course turned In the direr tlon of the city. It hurled 14 freight cars on the Macon, Dublin & Savan nah railroad, on a aiding near the camp, from the track* and passed over tbe Central City park, wrecking tha race track and bsmhall grandstand* and demolished a building in which were quartered wild animals belonging to a circus.

WAR FRONTS ME 111 THE 6RIFW HUNTED LITTLE FIQHTINQ EAST OR WEST BEYOND LIMITED ARTIL LERY AOTION. i FRENCH FRONT SNOWBOUND Long Wsitsd German Offenslvs Ha* j Bssn Dslsysd for Wseka on Aoeount •f Weather—Peaee Negotiations Continue at Breet-Lltevisk. Winter has settled down in earneat over all the Important war fronts, and beyond artillery actions, which are being carried out over very limited sections, there has been little fighting either In the west or in the esst. Only pstrol encounter* are reported along the l*h line*, and artillery action at two polnta on the French front. In Italy tho terrific artillery and Infantry fighting has given way to aerial warfare, which, however, though It la apectacular. hsa little direct bearing on tho progre** of the campaign when confined to combats between Individuals or squsdron*. For nearly a month/ now the front In France and Belgium has been al most snowbound. Thus the long waited German offensive, with the heavy reinforcements which Germany transferred from the Russian front to the west, has been delayed for weeka. If not, poeslbly, for months. The peace negotiations between the bolshevlkl and the representatives of the uadruple alliance at Brest- Lltovsk continue, but without definite results. Another delay In the aaaem bllng of the constituent sssembly Is likely because of the lssusnce of a decree at Petrograd, providing for new elections to replace member of the constituent saaembly who are deemed not to represent the Interests of the workmen and peasants. According to reports from the Rus sian capital, northern Russia Is to receive ample food supplies from Ukraine, through the reconcllatlon of the bolshevlkl and ths Ukrainians. Every effort has been made In the last few weeks by tho bolshevlkl au thorities to prevent the threatened famine in Petrograd and other cltlea of Ruasla where the bolshevlkl hold the power. It Is also seml-offlclally reported from Petrograd that the bolshevlkl have taken control at Novo Tcher ks**k, capital of tbe pttovlnc* of the Don cossscks and headquarters of Osnersi Kaledlne, hetman of the cos sack*. STEAMERRS IN DESPERATE BATTLE WITH THE ICE Richmond, Vs.—Steamers battled desperately for hours to break through the Ice In the James river between this city and Cheeapeake bay.
