WAR FAST SAPS STRENGTH
OF The CENTRAL POWERS

LONDON, June 6.-The drain of
man-power, the fall in the numbers
of births and the loss of the popula-
ton through sickness and underfeed-
ing is felt more severely by the Cen
trail Powers than by the peoples of the
Entente.
Whereas the annual gain of popu-
,lation in Germany, in Austria and in
Hungary has given place to a serious
loss, the peoples of the Entente have
suffered a very small diminution in
comparison.
Great Britain's total population has
so far remained at about the same
figure, gains balancing losses.
The rate of increase in the United
States has not been affected at all.
AS the war goes on, this disparity
in losses of population between the
Central Powers and the peoples fight
ing them is likely to increase.
If the war goes into next year the
population of the German empire
on which reliance was placed for the
enlargement of Germany's prosper
ity and industry and for repairing
the injury of trade and commerce
after the war-will have lost 10 per
cent in number and still greater
proportion of its industrial strength.
The German empire, which in June,
1919, should have seventy-two mil
lion people, will have no more tina
65,5OO,O0OO. Germany as a whole
have per cent less population than
when the war began. OF those who
have been killed, the greater number
were men in the prime of life and
energy, whom Germany could least
spare.
BY deaths in the battle zone, the
German empire has lost at least three
million men. The birth rate has sunk
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1918-06-06

I to such a figure that by next year
the number of births will have fallen
short of what they would have been
had there been no war by three and
a third million of children.
In the same period the annual num-
Der of deaths in the German civilian
popuSation-ow owing to the stress and
anxiety of war and owing to sick
ness and disease aggravated by hard
ships and food troubles-has increas-
ed by one million over the normal
But this is perhaps to be regarded
merely as wedding and no great hi
illogical loss.
Much of this mortality among chill
dren and among civilians as a whole
has been caused by the way in which
the food supply of Germany has been
mismanaged in the interests of the
Iandholders and of the farming class
and to the detriment of the poor. The
landholders and farmers have pros
pered, while the poor in the towns
have gone short of bread and pota-
toes.
On the other hand. because of lib
eral separation allowances and high
wages, the vital conditions of the
working classes in Great Britain have
been better since the war than when
the war began.
By next year the German empire
will be 7,O25,O00 lower in population
than it would have been had the war
not taken place.
The vitality of the peoples of Aus
tria and of Hungary has suffered even
more. This perhaps was to be ex-
pected. The peoples of Austria will
be II per cent poorer in numbers next
year than if the war had never taken
place. They will be per cent. lower
in numbers than they were in 1914.
Hungary will be still worse off. 1t
will have population 8 per cent lower
than before the war and 10 per cent
lower than if there had been no war.
AS the war continues SO will these
losses increase.
Despite the losses which England
has suffered in the war zone, the Brit
ish population has been growing. By
the middel of 1919 this population will
be only 8 per cent lower thaA it would
have been without war Great Britain
in 1919 will have a larger population
than in 1914

THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
IS AMERICA LANGUAGE

DIES MONIES, Ia, June Gov. w.
S. Harding, of Iowa, has issued pro-
clamation concerning the use OF Tor
eign languages in this state during
the war. in which he says that the OIL
fetal language of the United State and
the state of Iowa is the English Ian
guage; that while freedom OF speech
is guaranteed by federal and state con-
stitutions, they do not guarantee the
right to use other than the official Ian
guage. and that while freedom in the
worship of God is guaranteed, this
guarantee does not protect any one
in the use of foreign when he can as
well express his thoughts in Eng
lish
Nor does it entitle the persons VINO

foreign language when to 10 so tends
in the time of national peril to create

He formulates the following rules
which should obtain in Iowa during
the war.
First-English should and must be
the only medium of instruction in
public, private, UNCONVENTIONAL or 9TH
er similar schools.
d-COnversation in public
places, in trains and over the tele-
phone should be in English Ian
guage.
Thitd-All public address should be

Fourth-Let those who cannot speak

TWO AMERICANS
WERE CRUCIF|ED
RETURNING Y. Nj. c. A. WORKER
BRINGS BACK HORRIFYING AC-
COUNT OF ATROCITIES PRAC-
TISED BY GERMANS.

NEW YORK, June 6.-Two Amerl-
can soldiers were crucified by the Ger
mans and were found by comrades,
Herbert l.. Pratt, vice-president of the
Standard Oil Co., who has just re-
turned from organizing Y. M. G. A
canteens in France, told a newspaper
reporter The two instances of Ger
man barbarism we're told to Mr.. Pratt
by soldiers he talked with when he
was on the Toul front and were well
known, he said, to the fighting men
in the American line there.
Mr.. Pratt spoke of the crucifixions
to show the character of the enemy
the Aemrican fare and who the latter
are fighting relentlessly.
Such treatment of American sol
diers, or any soldiers, by the Ger
mans is only what | would expect
from such an enemy" Mr.. Pratt said.
Il refer to these two examples of
viciousness only because they show
what has heated the fighting spirit of
the American men. l am surprised
that the people here don't realize that
the Germans are the creatures they
are, and that things like these force
our men to fight back relentlessly.
American used to bring in a lot
of prisoners. The crucifixion of these
boys on the Toul front changed this.
Now there are few prisoners. The
Americans SHOOT the Germans down
like rats, and they will continue to
shoot them down like rats
Il don't mean they never take any
prisoners at all. One day while I
was on the front they brought in over
hundred; another time 240. But
there are no small patches of prison
ers. Rushing forward, crying Kane
rad, Kamerad, doesn't pay. Germans
are killed, that's ALL"
The Allies waited impatiently for
the second German drive, Mr.. Plat
said, because they wanted the oppor-
tunity to kill more Germans.
THE folks at home should not worry
about the German drives he said.
THE only anxiety is when the Ger
mans are not making drives. In the
last one we got three or four Germans
for every Allied soldier fallen. And
just before | left France there began
to be a real anxiety because no new
German drive had been started The
Allies feared they would miss more
opportunities to kill Germans"
In his report given out yesterday
by the War Work Council of the Y.
M c. A., Mr.. Pratt asserted that dur
ing the first eighteen months of the
war there were as many English and
Canadian soldiers sent back to eng
land because of mental arrangements
as there were because of wounds"
IF the United States is to be
spared the narrowing experience of
having thousands of American sol
diers returned home because of men
tai arrangements, this country must
provide more physical and mental
recreation for the boys overseas" Mr..
Pratt said
The United States must profit by
the experiences of our Allies and
must plan now to enlarge our facili-
ties overseas for taking care of our
men when not actually ighring. The
American soldier is naturally higher
strung than any of the Allied sol
diers. He's always ready ID go,he's
a dynamo of energy, and it IS CT vital
Importance that his energies ne direct
ed rightly.
