account of conditions in southeastern
Europe, where the presence of mill
lion Austrian army deserters who
have established themselves in forti-
fled camps in various districts as well
as of hords of released prisoners has
created dangerous situation, is given
in the report recently prepared for
Col. e. NJ House by William j. Rose,
an agent OF the Slovene government,
now in Laibach. the new capital of
Slovakia. He suggests various meas

affirms is the danger threatened by
the conditions he describes.

Is to be known as green guards This
began in the spring and had reached
by September such dimensions that
their numbers were reckoned at
round million. They wear Austrian
uniforms. They maintain sort of
discipline among themselves and by
their attitude TO the existing govern
ment found enough sympathy among
the peasantry to be able to get food.
Every kind OF pillage of military sup
plies helped them to maintain their
position.
THE people as whole suffered
little and even welcomed them into
their cottages These men were wait

These mon carried their rifles. but or,
being loaded into the cattle trains
waiting for them at either Klagen-
furt or Laibach. they have to leave
their arms behind and, ipso facto,
threw off all restraint. On the way
from Vienna to I.aibach we saw per-
haps twenty such trains, each one
looking like crawling snake covered
with ants, the soldiers. lying on the
tops of cars, crowding the platforms,
clinging to the windows and even
riding on the axles themselves. all
beset with one idea-to get home.
They have to pass through one, two,
three or four belts of hostile territory,
according to whether they are Ger.
mans Czechs, Poles or Ruthenians.
Long before they reach home they
take to plundering.
Thirdly, when the central empires
concluded with Russia the treaty of
Brest-Ltovsk they at once began to-
get their prisoners home from all
parts of Russia with which they had
railroad communications. But not
single train of Russian prisoners was
allowed to return from Austria or
Germany. At least two million Rus
slams were forced to remain under
hard conditions with little food and
no kind of Christian treatment.
"As soon as the crash came Austria
began to let loose untold thousands
upon her eastern boundaries, where
they were not let loose they broke
out themselves and began to march
to the nearest main line stations for
Russia. Germany soon followed her
example, which means that for the
third time in this war unhappy Po-
land is overwhelmed with an army of
invasion"
Mr. Rose suggests among other
things that the American government
establish consulates or missions in
numerous centers and also advisory
or relief committees as we'll as TO
undertake a general campaign OF en-
lightenment to be carried on indefi-
nitely by the press and on the plat
form to prepare the peoples for the
drastic changes the war has brought

says:
Professor Deissmann's statement
as to the present situation is not one

speaks of the European situation as
though all that is needed on the part

nations is mutual forgiveness and
conciliation in order to fight in unison

His letter Unanswered
+ The archbishop calls attention to
the fact that on September 22. 1910
he sent a letter to Prof. Deissmann
pointing out these essential matters
but received no reply, except a verbal
acknowledgment and continues:
I'VE have fought without hatred
and so far as possible, without pas
sion and now that victory crowns the
cause for which we fought we desire
to be equally free from hatred and
passion in the course we follow as
vietors.
"But we cannot forget the terrible
crime wrought against humanity and
civilization when this stupendous war
with its irreparable agony and cruelty
was let loose in Europe. Nor can we
possibly ignore the savagery which
the German high command displayed
in carrying on the war. Outrages in
Belgium in the early months, and,
indeed, ever since; the character of
the devastation wrought In France
including the inhuman deportation
of innocent civilians; tho submarine
warfare against passenger ships, Ike
the Lusitania ana the rcjoicings which
ensued in Germany; the unspeakable
crueltieS exercised on defenseless
prisoners down to the very end, in
cuding even the last few weeks-all
these things compel the authorities of
the allied powers to take security
against a repetition of such a crime.
Germans Never Protested.
"The position would be different
had there been on the part of Christ
ian circles in Germany any public
protest against these gross wrongs or
any reputation of their perpetrators
THE peace we hope to achieve
must be a peace not of hate or re-
venge, the fruits of which might be
further and even more terrible strife
We wish by every means to avert that
possibility But righteousness must
be vindicated. even though vindica-
ton involves sterness.
There is, however as | need hard
ly say, no wish on the part of the al
lied nations to crush 'or destroy the
peoples of Germany. Evidence to the
contrary is amply abundant"

London, Nov. 27.--The freedom of
the seas lis naturally the question of
supreme Importance to Great Britain,
and the coming of the president has
brought 1t into the forefront of inter
national discussion, with the obvi-
ously. amicable desire to prevent a
misunderstanding and to discover a
plan whereby beneficial harmony will
be preserved for the sake of perma-
nent world peace.
Firm confidence prevails that this
is best attainable by an open, frank
interchange of views, not only by the
press. but particularly by a personal
discussion between President Wilson
and the leading allied statesmen.
The first appealing fact put for
ward by all sections of political
thought here Is that in time of peace
complete freedom of the seas already
exists. and that in the war the British
navy prevented Germany from estab-
fishing new sea rule, destructive of
sea freedom for the whole world.
The Times. which has been the
foremost promoter of the Anglo
American entente. says outright
IF what is meant by the freedom
of the seas be a real, substantial
diminution of sea power, such as
would result from the abolition of the
blockade, this country could never
consent to 1t. 1t is well to speak
quite plainly on that point
What matters is substance. not the
name. and it may well be submarines.
mines and air power have substantial
ly affected the conditions under which
sea power will be exercised in the
future"
