twelve prominent New Workers control 1000 of

the syndicate at least 81 a day for the privilege

all Americans who want the truth

Mr.. Beverage in his concluding

Let us present one statement from
Sven Hedin, the noted Swedish travel
Ter:
THE talk about German militarism
recalls the old parable about the mote
and the beam. Is not Britatn's su-
premacy OF the sea built upon q mil
itary system? Can one imagine a
more widespread militarism than that
which spreads it's recruiting nets over
five continents and which advertises
in every newspaper and at every
street corner the need for more

Mr.. Beverdise went into the

the firing line. He talked with men
and women in all walks Of life
authors, philosophers, socialists. cap
italists laborers, peasants. He inter-
viewed Professor Won Harnack, who is
considered the most renowned histor-
ical theologian in the world; he had
interviews with Emperor William,

very interesting interview with Ber-
nard Shaw, and talks with Viscount
Bryce, Lord Newton, Mr.. Charles
Trevelyan, Sir Gilbert Parker. Gabriel
Hanotaux. Monsieur Bergson and Mon
sieur Herve. All interviews were
verified and stamped with the ap-
prevail of the persons interviewed.
The interviews with Emperor William,
Admiral Won Tirpitz and Field Mar.
shall Won Hindenburg were all official
ly stamped. On the whole Mr.. Bever-

and reliable contribution to the Anglo

authentic data and should be read by
every one who wants to know the
truth.

SPLENDID RAILROAD
PLANNED BY GERMANS

Amsterdam, Nov. iS.-What is eX-
pected to be the finest stretch OF rail-
road in Europe is planned by the
GGerman military authorities to. con-
meet AiX-la-Chapellc and Brussels.
Already line of surveyors posts
marks the route Of the new road from
the German frontier to the heart Of
Belgium, and work has begun on the
tunnel through which II will pierce
the hills between Wonck and Lixhe
The line will be fOur-tracked all
the way, and roadbed and bridges will
be built to bear the heaviest and fast
est trains. According to present plans
the first trains will be run sometime
during 1917.
Tho gains to Germany from the con-
struction Of the new railroad are
largely strategic. Parts Of the old
lines connecting the German border
with Brabant and Antwerp cross
Dutch territory. The new route OBJ
viates this difficulty. establishing easy
connections with all parts of Belgium
A railroad similar to that now under
construction was proposed to Belgium
a few years ago by German capital
lists, but met with opposition from the
city Of Iiege, which would have suf-
fered heavy loss from the diversion
of traffic to a more direct route be-
tween Germany and Brussels.
