leaVen of Revolution
WOrkinq in BeIuiun

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The leaven
of revolution tonight was believed to
be working in occupied Belgium.
Belgian government cables to the le-
cation today told of mob uprisings in
Belgian cities. Legation officials, peer
ing deeper, saw open revolt against the
kaiser an imminent possibility.
Attempts by the German government
begun January so to split Belgium, Civ
ing Flanders political autonomy, have
precipitated a serious crisis, the cables
said. Popular resentment, it was said,
is famed by treachery of Belgian po-
litical group known as the Activists,
which is supporting the German scheme
to cripple the nation by the subdivision.
Mobs tramping the streets of Ant
werp, Brussels and Malines have defied
the authorities. Troops have been call
ed out to maintain order. Three Bel
gian justices of the court which order
ed prosecution of the Activists have
been deported. The Belgian parliament
has formally protested to the German
chancellor. Feeling throughout the ma

at white heat

rising would be, however, was ques-

AMERICAN ARMY'S
RECORD OF HEALTH
IS BEST IN HISTORY
General GOrgaS, at Georgian
Terrace, Says It's Twice as
Good, as Most Favorable
Previously Established

1T would be extravagant even to
hope for better health conditions among
our troops during the war than we have
had SO far" said Surgeon General Will
liam c. Gorgas, talking to a Journal
reported Saturday afternoon at the
Georgian Terrace
The best previous record of troop
health in the history of warfare con-
tinued General Gorgas, by way of ex-
PLANTATION, was established by the JAP
anese in their campaigns against Rus
STA. Japanese deaths from disease
among soldiers while that war was in
progress were at the rate of 81 per
thousand per year. our record since
we begin TO raise the selective service
army ~ a death rate of 10 per thousand
per year. more than twice as good as the
worlds pScvious best
What ] am striving for now" said
the man who became world famous when
he changed Panama from a pesthole to
one of the healthiest places in the
world, "is not primarily to improve the
health conditions in our army, but to
hold them at the remarkable figure
where they stand now"
General Gorgas smiled broadly when
asked about the charges preferred by
Senator Chamberlain. There was a
trace of WEAKNESS in the smile.
Nearly all such complaints" said the
surgeon general, have been based on
isolated cases. Many times the letters
describing them are anonymous. Ere
quently they have been proven to be
grossly untrue. AS for Senator Cham
berlain's horror about the boy whose
body was sent home in a sheet, the
senator should know that his own body
would be sent home the same way if
he died from any contagious disease"
General Gorgas expressed gratifica-
ton with the conditions which he had
found in the Camp Gordon base hos
pital and with the work accomplished
by Colonel Konrad Koerper. chief sur
geon of the Eighty-second division.
I'm the past" said the surgeon gem
eral, "the highest disease death rates
of warning nations have always been
during the preliminary periods. If we
can make that true of ourselves and
this war, We will set a worlds record
and have cause to be grateful"

cording to a Berlin dispatch to the Tijd,
and declarations looking to the active
prosecution of the war against the Boil

The German authorities are anxious
regarding the fate of German prisoners
in north Russia, whom the Bolsheviki
are holding as hostages, and who, Ber-

Bolsheviki are driven to desperation.
Germany has already served notice on
the Bolsheviki authorities that she will
enforce reprisals if the German prison
ers are harmed
Count Czernin, the Acknowledgements

that Austrian troops must not be used

German submarines, which use this
route to reach the open seas.
The patrol was after a submarine,
which, it is believed, sent a wireless
appeal for help from Zeebrugge, when
it was attacked. . According to one re-
porC. the patrol had in the last few
weeks destroyed four submarines and
haG virtually closed this vital water
way to U-boats. 1t was in an effort
to break this barrage that the destroy
ers came out. They succeeded in sink
ing a few small patrol boats and got
away before the British warships could
overtake them,
This mornings affair was a small
one about thirty shells being thrown
into the town. All the casualties were
caused by one shell.

Situation in the West

In the west, while the military sit
uation at the front shows few signs for
the moment of passing beyond the stage
Of raids and sporadic commandments
and entering into one Of major opera
lions by the millions of men massed
for attack and defense, there has been
a development of marked importance
regarding the high command of the
forces on the entente side of the bat
tie line.
Thus, London advices announcing the
retirement of General Sir William Rob-
ertson as chief of the British imperial
star, and his replacement by Major
General Sir Henry Hughes Wilson, APP
parently indicate that something APP
preaching an allied general staff was
created by the supreme war council in
its recent session at Versailles. Gen
eral Robertson, it is revealed, would
not consent to take General Wilson's
place as British military representative
on the supreme war council nor remain
chief Of staff with limited power" the
inference being that some higher au-
thority has been set up.
Premier Lloyd George, with the en-
dorsement Of parliament that he receiv-
ed the other day to back him, il would
appear has grappled with the British
military situation boldly and made it
conform with the view So many have
held. and which apparently was endors-
ed by the Versailles council, that there
should be a unified control of the allied
armies General Robertson seemingly
was not willing to fit into the plan, so
without any question having been raised
as to his ability, he has had to step
down and make way for another.
Following up their destroyer raid in
the straits of Dover Friday, in which
they wiped out several British patroll-
ing craft, the Germans sent one Of their
submarines into the port of Dover in
the darkness of the early morning hours
Saturday. The U-boat threw a few
rounds of shells into the city and retired
when subjected to the fire of the shore
batteries. after inflicting small damage
to residence property and causing a few
casualties among civilians.

POLAND TURNS OUT
EFFECTIVE SIVAG FOR
GERMANY'S HOPES
Even Polish Army, on Which
Kaiser Was Depending for
Vast Help, Bids Fair to Turn
Against Him

NEW YORK. Feb. 16.-t Summary Of
European Cables -Germany has sud-
denly found herself involved i'm a maze
of difficulties on the eastern front and
in danger of losing all the large benefits
she was calmly preparing to realize from
her peace with the Ukraine and the Boil
sheviki withdrawal or Russia from the
war.
Poland that land which so frequently
i'm the course of history has proved
thrOn in the side Of military conquerors,
is threatening to constitute herself the
rock on which the German hope of peace
and gainful expansion in the east may
be shattered. Embittered by the tear
ing of of a strip of their territory to
be given the Ukraine for breaking away
from the Bolsheviki and signing a peace
with the central powers, the Poles are
in what appears TO be virtually state
Of revolt
Even the very weapon which Ger
many and Austria were at such pains
TO forge in the hope OF deriving mill
tary benefit-the Polish army-bids fair
TO be turned against them. Reports in
the German newspapers, which express
dismay and alarm over the Polish stu
alton, indicate that the Polish legions,
now an effective military force, are on
the side of the prevalent Polish senti-
ment of bitterness against the central
powers. The situation has grown so
serious that the military are patroling
the streets of Warsaw.
Austria Hungary is particularly in
volved in the difficulties because of the
prominent part which ii was expected
she would play in the future govern
ment of Poland. The Polish elements
and those sympathiZing with them in
the. dual monarchy are up in arms over
the situation and further internal trou-
bles are threatened.
Turning to the north, il already has
been reported that Germany purposes
resuming military operations agains
northern Russia, and this report gains
color by the announcement that the
commission representing the central
powers at Petrograd have left the Rus
sian capital and passed within the Ger
man military lines. The probable Ger
man purpose to attack the BolSheV1ki is
also indicated in a Vienna dispatch de-
claring that if Germany decided to re-
sumo military operations against Rus
STA 1.-THE attitude of Austria" would not
be Influenced thereby. This would
seem TO mean that Austria intends to
leave Germany to fight the battle alone
in north Russia Whether she hopes to
keep Up connections with the Petrograd
government meanwhile is not clear. but

sumed diplomatic relations with Rus

ers are in agreement over the situation,
