Planmaessia and AusneschIossen.
Hendrix Van Loon in the Century.

6eNOFlk van LOON III the century.
During the first four months Of the
war, two words dominated the German
mind. The first was planmaessig, and
the second was ausgeschlossen. Let me
show you their meaning by a concrete
example. o might say to your best
German friend, What a pity that you
crossed through Belgium. You have the
whole world against YOU. You lost two
weeks Of good time in your march
against France. Why did o do it?"
The answer would be the inevitable
planmaessig or according to pro-
gram" The Germans would have liked
to go any other way, but for 40 years
the German general staff has decided
upon this particular route. According
to program. therefore, the Germans
must violate the territory of their Bel
gian neighbors. It is regrettable, most
regrettable that the Belgians defended
themselves and lost SO terribly in men
and cities; but 1t was all planmaessie,
and that Is an n to further discus
sion.
When you heard of this according to
program. conquest of the world. YOU
might say: My dear friend, remem-
Der that seven or eight nations are
against you. Germany might lose, YOU
know" In such cas would come the
tnvariable answer "Ausgeschlossen."
followed by a long dissertation upon
German statistics of imports, wealth.
banking resources, army reserves. gun
superiority. and ending with the EN-
phatic statement that a German defeat.
absolutely impossible, and that n
who was half way intelligent
n one third fair minded must see It.
Therefore. please keep planmaessig and
ausgeschlossen In. your mind: they viii
prove the key to much that Is otherwise
difficult to understand.

RUSSIANS GREAT need
NOW in SMALL ARMS
One of the Fighters Writes to
This Effect - Still No
Thought of Peace.
oVNOEawooo u4oERWooo

That the repeated successes Of the
German invading forces on the Rus
sian front are rapidly depicting the
Russian supply of small arms, is evil
denced In a letter received by Tony
Chepakanus, 30S Fowler avenue,
G%reenville, in a letter received from
his brother, Vladimir, who was in the
cars forces at Brest-Litovsk.
1.-THE little father" as the emperor
of all the Russias Is a~ffectionately
termed by his people, is calling every
man to the standards, and great num-
bers are being trained as quickly as
the military machine can accomplish
it. But there are not enough spare
small arms to complete training, &C
cording to the letter received by the
Sioux Cityans.
"a regiment will receive three days
training with rifles. and Their 1t will
be inactive for six days while two
more regiments are receiving their
training. During the idle time, the
troops are being taken on long forced
marches, sometimes making 26 versts
in a day." declares the letter.
Concluding, the writer declares that
there is no shortage of food to speak
Of, except on the front, where it Is diff
ficult to get commissary trains
through without their falling into the
hands of Prussian m%arauders. The
cars greatest peril will be the short
g of small arms, but there is no
thought of peace until the invader has
been thrown back across the border.
