Provision Trains Held Up.

The pfllaging in the back areas, of
which Won Boehm complains. appears
to have become widespread. Recent
orders issued by the commanders of
the 18th and I'd armies, opposite the
British, have revealed excesses which
seem almost incredible, consider
ing that the German military ma
chine has been notorious for it's iron
discirSSne Trains have been held up
and the guards killed and provisions
carried away by gangs of desperate
soldiers intent upon satisfying their
hunger, even II they are shot for 1t.

HUNGRY GERMANS
LOOT FOOD STORES
Scored by Army Commander
for Not Sharing Captured
Supplies.
HAVE EVEN SLAIN GUARDS

Bythe Associated Press
WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRINGE. Tuesday. July 23-The
claim of the German higher command
that Re retirement on the Marine is
part q a set program is given the lie
by an Eder of Gen. Won Boehn. COM
mander\of the 7th Army. The 7th
Army hal borne the full weight of the
Foch coulter offensive on the west.
and its divisions around scissors suf-
fered heaSly at the hands of the
Americans. while those east of Cha
teau ThierF were thrown back
across the MArne by the pressure of
the French.
For this reaSn the order of Gen.
Won Boehn. written a month prior to
the beginning oNthe battle. is of unu-
sual significance. Vie deplores the lack
of discipline which resulted in the
pil1aging of storeA in the back areas
during the advance in May, when all
edible booty found p the wake of the
retiring French speedily vanished. in
stead of being distributed among the
hungry troops in due\proportions.
Loot Not to Fighting Men.
Inc ofuer continues VII Is neceS-
sary to depart from the Seaten track
which has been followed Nn the utili-
cation of material and provisions and
stores from the occupied territory.
Hopes of the utilization Of captured
food as rationS and Of the distribution
of fixed portion of the provisions to
the fighting troops have proved to be
fallacious, owing to the fact that the
troops have taken these provisions
, themselves and eaten them. without
treating them as part Of the authorized
scale of rations.
have CHANGED to have the opportunity
to capture booty of this description.
have lived in abundance, while others
are suffering privations. Further, 1t
has not even been the troops in the
front line to whom this more abund-
ant supply of food has fallen, but
second line troops. train echelons. and
especially stragglers who are roam
ing about behind the army.
Officers Bad as Men.
TT has even happened that men
have taken food without authority
and by force from the stores in the
military occupation, and in addition.
1 regret to say, some officers have
the guard in the execution of their
duty, and to insult the officials to
whose charge the provisions were in
trusted. 1t appears to be necessary
for the supply officials to follow the
first line troops as closely as possi-
BILE. and to be accompanied by es-
corts of cavalry or police, so Nthat
important stores and depots may at
least be administered by them with
as little delay as possible.
IF our progress results in the oc-
cupation of a new area, this must be
placed under regular system of
exploitation as soon as possible. Or
der must be maintained in the viii
lagos by sentries and patrols. The
troops must be prevented and pro-
hibited from making reQuistions in
the fields and taking the crops. The
people at home are so short of all
provisions necessary to life that
enough can never be done to dimin-
ish the amount which they have to
supply to the army in the field.
Rapid and complete seizure and
economic use of provisions may prove
of capital Importance for the con-
tinuation of operations"
