OUR MEXICAN FLANK

The Providence Journal recently
printed q disquieting story to the ef-
feet that IL We get into war with Ger
many, the first blow against us will
be struck thru our exposed flank
which Is Mexico.
Hundreds OF German army officers
are represented as having been in this
country for some time awaiting such
an emergency. Within the last three
weeks, according to the journals a.
count, 800 Of them were rounded up
under the direction Of Ambassador
ron Bernstorff. supplied with funds
thru the German consulates and start
ed for Mexico, accompanied by 2tO
reservist officers. Subsequently, it is
said, the consulates destroyed all con-
hdential papers relating to Mexican
affairs.
r Many German officers are said to
have been with both Carranzo and
villa for some time. Others have re-
mained in Mexico City. All are now
supposed to be joining one or the 9th
or Of the two chiefs.
1t is suggested that if We become
involved with Germany, we shall be
attacked promptly on our Mexican
flank. And 1t is admitted that Next
can army. whether Carranza's or VII
las or both together. II led by German
cf1cers, could make q lot of trouble
for US. 1t could at least hold our
army on the border absorb large
part of our recruited forces and mill.
tary supplies and thus prevent our en-
tile resources from being used
against Germany.
II doesn't sound at all improbable.
Villa hates us and wants vengeance
for his imagined wrongs, and Carran.
"a has never given US reason to trust
him. Both might rejoice in an ALI
ance with Germany to help them hum
BILE our pride. And recent history
shows no lack OF disposition on Ger.
many's part to play such game. One
Of the things that led US to demand
the recall Of Boyd and Won Papen,
the German military and naval at.
taches. was their attempt to stir up
Mexico against US. 1t would be re.
garded too, as legitimate war meas.
ure to hit at us thru Mexico.
It's WELL at any rate. to take no
chances. And our government seems
to be on Its guard. 1t isn't for moth.
ing that Pershings army and many
National Guard regiments are being
held at the frontier.

In medieval days breaking on the
wheel" a most barbarous mode of in
nicting capital punishment was often
used in France and Germany. 1t con
sisted of stretching the victim upon .
wheel or upon a wooden frame in the
shape of St Andrews cross and then
breaking his limbs by blows from iron
bars. The sufferer was then left to
die slowly from fear, thirst and ex
baustiOn.

FRANCE TO BUILD LINE
OF MODERN HOTELS
Anticipating Rush Of Tourists After
the War, Government to Sup
port Movement.

NEW YORK, January 26-In antici-
patton that after the war ends there
will be an enormous influx of tourists
to France to visit the invaded districts
and scenic points, besides those who go
there as representatives of foreign in
dustrial and commercial houses. plans
are being made to spend 500, 00O, 900 in
the construction and enlargement of
hotels. This is set forth in the fourth
installment. made public today, of the
report of the American industrial COM
mission sent to France by the Ameri-
can Manufacturers Export Association.
A campaign of publicity has been be-
gun through various national bodies
supported by the French government
it is stated. to acquaint the world with
the movement to fnaugurate a first
class hotel system in France and to in
vite capital to take part in it. The
hope has been repeatedly expressed,
says the report, that a considerable
proportion of this capital might come
from America.
The American commission recon-
mends that special study be made of
a central purchasing department in a
parent company, through which each
hotel could buy equipment, furnishings,
foodstuffs etc. at bulk prices. This
same study might include the saving
that might be effected by building a
number of hotels at the same time I'M
der one general contract"
The hotel training schools being es-
tablished in France, in the belief of
the commission, will be as important
as the we'll known industrial trade
schools of France and other countries
The report concludes: I'VE believe that
a study of the best American standa I'd
practice in heating and yentilating, in
electric installation anu in elevator
service, etc, could be made advan-
tageously in the interests of economy
and efficiency"
