Maine DOCTOR
TELLS OF HORRORS
OF THE GERMANS

The atrocities of the Germans are
wildly pictured by DR.. D. E. Dolloff Of
Biddeford. who is in the medical de-
partment of the United States service
abroad, being at the Manor War Hos
pital at EPSON. Surry, Eng. He wrote
to relatives regarding his experience as
follows.
This is a 1200-bed hospital. and l
have charge of 140 patients. We get
soldiers here with the mud of Flanders
on their clothes. | also have men in
nv ward who were wounded at Nimy
Ridge, Messines, Loos, and in the hell
of fire and mud that is now raging
about Ypres.
Il had a man the other day who was
in Johnson hole for five days up to
his hips in mud and water with II 9TH
ers For three days they had little
food. When found by comrades the
men could not walk their feet were 50
badly swollen. Their boots and put
tees had to be cut off.
There are hundreds of men in these
shell holes they should be called he'll
holes-and they stay in them for days
at time. Some will tell you that the
English are not fighting.
''Frizt en- masse is a good fighter
Fritz by himself is a greasy slob who
holds up his hands at 100 PAGES and
shouts 'kamerad,' and tells Of his 10
children.
THE belief is general among the Ca !
madam troops, and has gained ground
among the English. that Fritz is in the
best possible position for killing, and
they act accordingly. That is the doc
trine that is now being taught our
4 troops, that they may not make the
mistake the Allies did in the early days
Of the war.
The object of the war at present is
| TO kill Germans, as that is the only way
to win. Don't be too gentle with Ger
man sympathiZers or people whose
loyalty is doubtful at home. 4 Hun is
Hun wherever you find him.
| Il have met men who were poisoned
by the fumes of the poisonous gases
and they are thin, emaciated. racked
/ by an incurable cough. / have seen
| the houses and schools where fright
ened crying little children were muir
dered and mangled by the German
bombs from the sky. I have seen
women and babies bivouacing under
hedges. with no other shelter on &C
| count of the raids of the kaiser's men
on peaceful settlements.
The German soldiers. acting under
orders, have cut off the hands of bows
/ in Knockers. | have been told by more
than one soldier of the dead women
found in the deep dugouts OF the Ger
mans, after the evacuation on the
Somme. The Germans are not men
like other men. Let none dream Of
treating them as SUCH"

Furthermore it is imnrobable. the
despatch says. that Germany desire.
the return from Russia of a ma joritv
of her war prisoners. She will get
pack the ohlcers and non commission
cd ofncers In any case. But for Ger
many and Austria. the despatch con-
tinues, it would be a sounder policy
TO regard the rank and file Of these
men as the advance guard for COM
mercial conquest. The correspondent
adds: Allied diplomacy Is credited
with having awarded to Eussia the
right to make a separate peace and
with endeavoring to save its face by
raising the question Of the return Of
German prisoners.
The correspondent contends thct d.
plOmacy would be better employed In
obtaining strategic position in the
commercial and industrial futures OF
Russia
The Petrograd correspondent OF the
Times says deep impression has been
made in Petrograd by the withdrawal OF
important French and British depots
there.
Many Russians regard this move as pre-
mature, believing the present state Of az
fairs cannot last.
The military commission of posts and
telegraphs on the northern front has sent
a notice TO the postal and telegraph sta
tons That severe punishment will be in
nlcted on any person who transmits APP
peals TO French or American socialists,

rialist hirelings."
Notwithstanding the unfavorab.e receI-
