Germans Impose Severe
Restrictions in Poland

London, Feb. % (corres pondence) j.,
According 70 a Pole who just arrived
in Amsterdam from Warsaw. says 'Ihe
Chronicle" "the City OF Warsaw shows
scarcely any life. Many zones are made
into prohibited areas. where the gen
eral public are not allowed. Moreover
Jews wearing the long kaitans may not
even enter Warsaw's popular paris
known as Jardin de SAKE. Food Is eX-
tremely expensive. as elsewhere. and II
there is any food surplus in one district
il may not be transported 10 another
district under pain of imprisonment.
Bread is supplied under an official
rationing scheme" says "The Chroni-
cle's" informant ain spite of their
great misery the Polish population en-
dure patiently. never abandoning the
hope of deliverance by the Allies vic
tory. The Polish population under
Austrian domination has much less
reason to complain. The Austrians, !
assure you, are not Germans. and IT is
rot without good reason that the Poles
always say, The Austrian is our
brother All that is forbidden in the
parts occupied by the Germans is al
lowed in that occupied by the Aus
trians.
dublin is the seat Of Austrian con-
troll, but the Germans take great care
to prevent the populations from the
two parts meeting. 1t is difficult for
man Of Lublin to go TO Warsaw, and
vice versa. ! cannot do better than
quote you a letter from a German
officer in Poland in order to give you
an indication of the manner in which
the Germans regard Poland. This let
ter. which was addressed to a friend
in Berlin. says:
"'Of course we shall keep Poland,
which will return to Germany the sums
of money devoted TO the expenses Of
her army, and she will enjoy the mil
itary protection of Germany. The sep
aration between Poles and Jews must
be complete. We will also sacrifice
the Jews, who are so unsympathetic.
"'Poland will constitute an indie
pendent kingdom under the rulership
Of a prince Of the German imperial
family. In this way we shall avoid its
open annexation. The country will be
enlarged by Lithuanian territories.

Problem Of 20,000,000
Sons Abroad

In addition TO the 80.0O0.O00 Ger
mans at home, there are 100000
abroad. How are these sons of the
empire to be strengthened in their love
and allegiance TO the Fatherlsnd? This
is the problem which is being faced BY
the founders OF the institute and
museum. After the war there will be
tremendous changes, and Germany may
reasonably look forward in time to an
almost immeasurable increase of her
overseas trade. No time must be lost
in arranging for the necessary supply
of all available raw materials; equally
urgent is the question Of an extension
Of markets for finished manufactures
The cordial cooperation of the overseas
German is absolutely necessary.

to replace the men, but with the hope
of gain by the nigh price anticipated.
To the dismay OF the rural population
the high prices anticipated were cut
down by state or communal interier-
ence or by downright conhscation.
The consequence was that during the
second summer the rural population
lost its enthusiasm. Women and chill
dren cultivated the fields and raised
only just sufficient produce for their
own consumption. 1t was even TO their
interest 20 raise as little as possible in
some instances, so as not 10 be annoyed

Thus the reverse of collectivism ap-

be driven TO fight by being threatened

Gloomy Over Crop Outlook

plight in an unforeseen manner by the
extravagant application Of military col
lectivism.
During the first year OF the war
much was said OF the admirable organi-
cation undertaken by Germany and imi-
tated gradually by Austria. Everything
was organized, methodized and nionopo-
lized for state and war purposes, with
the result that a military collectivism
was insugursted in both empires when
strongly appealed TO the Socialist ele-
ments. Perhaps IL accounted IN no
small measure for the enthusiastic sup
port which the Socialists gave their
governments.
Collectivism Boomerang
But the disastrous result OF this col
lectiyism applied to entire nations by
state decree was already apparent last
summer. After all allowance had been
made for the calling up Of fresh re-.
cruits ard the diminishing number OF
field labo~ers, there was still no appar-
ent reason why agricultural products
should have fallen off TO such an enor-
nous extent.
The secret Of this may now be seen
in the application of rigid military col
lectivism. The prices of all provisions,
or nearly all, were fixed at a maximum
which left no profit, and very often a
loss. 70 the cultivator.

Wilson as a
Poker Player

Even more bitter are the threats
and insults addressed 70 the United
States by the German papers. The
"harmlessness" Of America as a factor
in the war is the subject Of numerous
articles by political and military writ
ers. The "Vossische Zeitung," in a
leading editorial, rejecting the pre-
vailing official view. assails President
Wilson as "a common poker player
who is edifying the world with an ex-
hibition Of the American national game,
whose outstanding characteristic is
bluff"

German-Am
And Their Allies

Germany still clings to the belief
that the German-Americans will tie
Wilson's hands. In Der Tag Berlin,
DR.. Emil Zimmerman, the German
traveller and writer on Colonial mat
tiers, draws attention 20 the power OF
the Teutons in the United States. This
power, he declared, will be enhanced
after the victory Of the German En-
pire over the Entente" The ten 10

When this characteristic manifesto

All the elaborate activities for lnhu-

brought TO naught by the action OF inc

we could have counteracted those lnnu-

Americans will realize the enormous
sacrifice which the British Empire has
made in a cause in which American in
terests are deeply involved History
will record the fact that no nation ever
entered into war with purer motives
than those which inspired the British
people in August, 1914, and that our in

rope from extinction and, incidentally
guarded the United States from great

AMERICAS OPPORTUNITY.

British business experts are urging the
United States to make ample preparation
for meeting the demand for American
goods which will set in Immediately after
the war. They point out that many things
which are considered necessities in times
of peace are almost unobtain able now and
England will be unable to supply them for
at least a year after hostilities cease because
the factories of Great Britain have been
altered to produce war requisites French
manufacturers are in similar position and
America will be looked to for needed table
linen, cutlery, plate, carpets, pocela1n and
clothing, together with countless other ar
t;cIes.
American goods were quite generally
used in Great Britain before the war and
were stocked by many merchants in re-
Spouse to the demand created by tourists.
The friendliness of England for its West
ern ally will aid materially in solidifying
the market for Our goods after the war and
everything suitable to the needs of the
British public should find ready sale.
Information gathered by commercial
organizations indicated that the foreign
demand for American products will give
this country an era of prosperity never be-
foe approached, and if we are fully alive to
the opportunity, we will become the fore
most commercial nation of the world

BIG MARKETING LIST.

Those who find a perplexing problem in
the provisioning of an average family can
scarcely comprehend the greatness Of the
task of feeding our navy, which now num-
bers approximately 100000 men. The fol-
lowing items taken from a recent monthly
stores list. show the marketing capacity of
the men who supply on fighting forces.
Meat, 100000 pounds; flour, 4 100000
pounds; vegetables, 100000 pounds;
sugar, 1857 900 pounds; butter, 100000
pounds; evaporated milk, 624, 5000 pounds ;
d1 ed beans, 100000 pounds. Besides there
were such items as tons of oatmeal and cof-
fee and tea and quantities of fruits and
green vegetables purchased for use at shore
stations and by ships in port. the purchasing
bureau of the navy is one of the most per-
teet organizations in America and is
in charge of skilled specialists who are
proud of the distinction of providing for
ten best navy in the world.

READY FOR H|GH
SCHOOL OPENING

Work remodelling the Tabernacle
for use as a High School was COM
pleted yesterday by H. E. Franklin,
the successful bidder for the work.
The desks have been installed. and
everything is in readiness for the
opening on schedule time Monday
morning.
Owing to the fact that the black
boards did not arrive, the boards
from the Classical school have been
installed until the new boards come
This will probably be week or more,
hut in the meantime it is believed that
the others will be satisfactory.
Open exercises will be held in the
building Monday morning at nine
o'clock and it is expected that every
student who is enrolled or intends en-
rolling will attend the exercises.
Music has been arranged, and vocal
selections will probably be a feature
secretary for the Y. NJ. C. A. will de
liver the opening address.
Under the proposed schedule for
the school, work will start every
morning at SIS o'clock, and will close
at l AS A recess of twenty minutes
will be given at Ills at the end of
the fourth period. The enrolment
for the season IS estimated at $50,
though more will probably enter after
the work is started. The study hall
which occupies the central part of the
building has a seating capacity of
more than four hundred, is well light
ed and ventilated, and has facilities
for concerts, stage productions. and
other school entertainments.
By closing at 1 :45 in the afternoon
other work is anticipated in the af-
ternoons, probably home economic
| and domestic science works. Plans
are being made for holding night
school in the building, and electric
equipment will be. installed during the
week.

LITTLE SAVINGS COUNT.

Many housewives will be surprised to-
know that the care exercised in using their
kitchen utensils will have important
bearing on the cost of the war.
Replacement of carelessly damaged
sauce pan or boiler doesn't mean much in
itself, but when it is realized that the an
nual expenditure in this country for house
hold utensils is one hundred million dol
lars. the part which women of the home
may play in national economy is quite evil
dent.
In fact, it is so important that thirty of
tie leading holloware manufacturers have
united in an appeal to the housewife to
prolong the life of her kitchen utensils.
She is urged not to heat pan without
water, not to handle utensils carelessly and
not to use coarse securing powders.
Little precautions like the above will re-
suit in savings which will conserve large
quantities of metal urgently needed for war
purposes.

ALABAMA CAPITALS
|. CITY IS ENJOYING
| BREEZY SENSATION

Montgomery, Ala, Sept. 22.-When
the celebrated case of Mrs. Sadie Mae
DeBardaleben of Wetumpka, Ala,
against the German-American Insur-
ance company, to recover insurance
on buildings burned some time ago,
was called in the Montgomery county
circuit court, Judge Leon McCord
presiding, something of a sensation
was caused when attorneys an
nounced that the case had been settled
out of court.
The German-American not only re-
fused to pay on the policies soon af-
ter the buildings burned but had Ed
DeBardaleben, a wealthy man of We
tumpka, arrested and tried for arson,
the trial resulting IN a verdict of
guilty and sentence of two years in
the penitentiary. DeBardaleben has
been at liberty pending a rehearing of
the case on appeal to a higher court
and 1t is now understood that the
German-American company has not
only agreed to pay $500 on the
burned property but also agreed to
drop the arson charge against the
rich Wetumpka man.
The state insurance commissioner
doesn't like the finale of the case at
all, declaring that the state spent a
lot of money in prosecuting DeBar-
dalben and it sees no reason why the
insurance company should drop the
matter without explanation. At the
trial of DeBardaleben for arson a ne
gro woman testified that he hired her
to fire the property which was de-
stroyed and he was convicted largely
on her evidence.
