Liverpool, where they learned our
songs and our slang. At the Domhof
Hotel, where l once stayed in times
OF peace, one of these young walters
had just come back to his old way Of
life again and seemed pleased to meet
English people, though they had come
in an army of occupation. He had
been wounded in the throat in the
Champagne, but looked none the worse
and was n fresh.colored fellow.
Soldiers Become Walters
There in the Domhof Hotel sat and
was waited on by Germans who un.
til a few days ago were in the uni
form of their army, and who. a few
months or weeks ago, had been fight.
ing against us. 1t was difficult to
believe. That man who handed me a
table knife and waited upon me, with
a starched front. would have cut
my throat If we had met somewhere,
we will say, on the outskirts of Cam.
brai, but today throat.cutting and
bloodIletting seem to belong to the
nightmare that has passed and British
and Germans pass each other in the
streets, sit in the same rooms. go into
the same shops without desiring each
others lives.
God alone knows what hatred there
still turks in German hearts against us.
In Cologne, far more than in AiX-la-
Chapelle and other towns on our way,
there seemed a sense OF hostility to our
presence. and today at least there was
no hat doffirg In the street when British
officers passed, and thousands of men
who obviously were German officers Just
out of uniform. looked stern and cold,
but they behaved with dignity and suffi-
cient courtesy as they have been called
upon to do In proclamations posted on
the walls and bearing the signatures of
Ebert, Haase, Scheidemann. and other
majority Socialists now ruling in Ger
many.
Germany is Free"
"The ban has been removed" says one
proclamation. Germany is free and
ready to take her place as a free people
In the society of nations"
From inquiries l made it seems TO mo
that Cologne has suffered severely from
food shortage, and l have seen figures
showing that infant mortality has in
creased to a very high figure since the
beginning of the war. but hero again
as in all German towns I visited, food
Is a question of money, and if the people
could afford to pay enormous prices they
could live in luxury.
While the poor classes were closely
rationed and had meager fare, in the
Domhof hotel today there was a better
lunch than one could get in any restau-
rant in England. 1t is this inequality
of suffering that has caused bitterness
and revolt, and soldiers returning penni-
less after the privation of war find it
hard to get enough to eat, so some of
them told me tonight.
