The Romance of Raemaekers

Louis Raemaekers would never
have been heard of outside the circle
of his immediate friends in the quiet
little village Of Harleem, Holland, had
not the Kaiser launched his military
thunderbolt through Belgium into
France in those fateful days Of Au-
gust. 1914. He was then a landscape
painter Of some merit. He delighted
in pictures Of the grey nat country Of
his birth. and an occasional sale in
the galleries Of Amsterdam provided
the wherewithal necessary to maintain
his little household in the simple COM
forts that satisfy the Dutch people.
Today he is the friend and familiar
Of kings, princes, presidents, great gen.
erals. admirals. statesmen and art COL
~lectors throughout the whole world.
He is rich beyond the dreams Of avar-
ice, he is a chevalier of the Legion of
Honor; the highest purely intellectual
distinction that is possible for Europe
to bestow. A public reception at the
sorbonne in Paris. has been held to
signalize his services on behalf of HUI
manity. And he has the additional

and extraordinary distinction Of being
the only civilian upon whose head a
price has been set by the Prussian
military authorities.
A great British general has said
"~Raemaekers is worth an army corps
to the allies" The Cologne Gazette
in a leading article demands that
Holland shall pay an indemnity for
every cartoon that Raemaekers has
drawn when the day of settlement ar
rives." The London Times has said
Of him: HE is the only genius pro-
duced by the war" The Boston Tram
script in a three column article makes
what is probably the finest criticism
of his work: "Dante's mantle has
fallen upon Raemaekers. he leads the
spirit and the conscience of the world
today through al. inferno Of wrong"
1t Is only recently that R~aemaekers'
work has become known in the U. S.
A. The cartoon reproduced in our
columns today shows how the great
Dutchman appreciates Americas ac-
ton in the conflict which is moulding
the destinies Of the world.
