Whether or not General Won Hin
denburg is dead or alive is not
known. But General Ludendorff is
conceded to be the real leader Of the
German military forces. Albert De
Pouvouryille of the French colonial
council intelligence bureau points
out this fact in a psychological
study of Ludendorff, which has just
appeared. The French author refers
to- the "diabolical genius of the
man" and says the nature of his
war game is irony set in motion"
and that "for him the interesting,
the important thing, is to fool his
enemy, to set traps for him, the
more, scientific the better"
Here are the principal parts of
De Pouvourville's study, translated
from the French:
Ludendorff is the type of general

gist, of an memorable and cool chess
player. have known this man very
slightly in the usual way Of social

He was, and he freely admitted
himself to be, an enigma. But he

Prussian from Stettin, who copied

Wins Socialists

London-"Neo-Ma rxism" is the
name applied by The Frankfurter
Zeitung to the remarkable reaction
undergone by an apparently increas-
ing section Of German Socialists,
whereby Karl Marks principles have
been abandoned in favor Of what is
virtually Pan-Germanism,
The chief organ Of the new school
If the Glocke. Of which the chief
writer is DR.. Paul Lensch. The Neue
zeit, formerly in the hands Of the
Socialist minority. is Following in
the same course, trying also, with
the hearty support Of Pan-Ger-
ings to Marks doctrines. The
Vorwaerts and other official or
gains of the Socialist majority
still profess the international"
idea, although in practice they sup
port the German government.
According to The Frankfurter
Zeitung, much attention has been
attracted to a book by Herr Rem
ner, an Austrian German, called
"MarXism, War and Internationale."
Renner denounces the moral judg-
ment point of view" and regards war
as the completion of historical, and
SSpCC4CSA4S OSOlAO4AAASB p4SSC5SC5' LII
says:
1T is not impossible that in the
future also the world will find or
der through Warlike selection-that
the power which proves itself to be
the strongest organization is also
summoned by history to perform the
greatest work Of. organization, and
to be by right the highest power, the
judge, administrator. and law-giver
OF the peoples" ....
This appears to be the view of
Lensch and his supporters. They say
they are sick of ethical flowers"
and, The Frankfurter Zeitung puts
it, ''ridicule any resolute will to
peace and peace by negotiation, and
declare the right of self determine
ton Of the peoples and parliament
tarism to be barren catchwords."
The attempt, The Frankfurter pa
per points, to reconcile Socialism
with Pan -Germanism is built upon
the theory that the only factors in the
world that really matter are econ
omic.

councils, and on the front with the
troops. Meanwhile in his own SOL
itary and closed office he bends over
maps, logarithmic tables, makes
his calculations and solves his prob
lens. He plays his game Of chess
against an >automaton of his own
against an alienation of his own
fabrication. He attempts to change
destiny. Such is the game played
by this redoubtable and consuming
man who tries to observe the end
before the end comes. who despises
the noise Of acclaim and the USE
lessness of glory.
But the nature of his war game is
unique. 1t is irony set in motion.
To vanguish his enemy by sheer
brute force appears to HIM to be an
inferior and easy conception-good
enough for his general in chief and
his sovereign And with that these
two are satisfied, and in his heart
he despises them for it.
His Idea OF War.
For him the interesting, the i'm
portant thing, is to fool his adver-
sary, to abuse him, to set traps

And this does not, but any means,
apply to military strategy. Austen
litz and Auerstadt were evidently
good strokes of strategy, bu they do
not provoke laughter or even a
smile.
They are not sufficient for Luden-
dorff, who wishes to amuse himself
at his enemy's expense. No, Luden-
dorff is the complete gamester, who
knows and utilizes his every chance
and who, with the same brain with
which he conducts military strategy
and sheds blood, conceives and ma
nipulates diplomatic strategy and
morale and spreads lies and the
poison of words.
Herein we have the curious char
acteristics of the soldier, to whom all
things are useful. Espionage. the

LoqOer, Lignite
Rates In Effect

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 6.-A reduc-
ton of 40 to rs cents per ton in
freight rates on Ignite hauled over
two or more railways within the
state of North Dakota Is effective
today as a result of protest filed
with the United States railway ad-
ministration by James A. Little, rate
expert with the North Dakota rail-
way commission.
When the railroads In North Da-
kota made their rate, advance on
Ignite in accordance with the re-
cent directions of Director General
McAdoo they took advantage of more
boosts than they were legitimately
entitled to in the case of through
rates in which two or more lines
participated, the rate expert claimed
in his protest, upon which the ma
tionaI administration took, immediate
action.
One or two minor matters affected
alleged exorbitant charges Of less
importance are still to be adjusted
but the rail board has won it's prin-
cipal fight, without bloodshed.

Mary Miles Minter In
New Role At Liberty

Mary Miles Minter hits a new
angle Of pictorial comedy and pathos
in her new Americana Mutual photo
play, THE Ghost Of Rosy Taylor,
at the Liberty today and Tuesday
A play with a ghost in it might
easily be supposed to possess a
gruesome touch, but nothing could
be farther from the fact. Rhoda
Sayles (Miss Minterl, is believed by
her employers to be Rosy Taylor, a
char woman, is in reality a very
beautiful young orphan whose faith
er has just died in Paris leaving
her without knowledge OF her Am
erican relatives. OF course the fact
that Rhoda's rich uncle Joseph is
searching everywhere for her, and
finds her at last put the correct final
touch to very delightful series Of
adventures.

The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1918-10-08

Even the people of the Baltic prov
inces are represented in the new
Russian government an Esthonian
delegation having contrived to attend
the great conference at Uffa, where
the new all-Russian government, re-
sponsible to no one but the consti-
tuent assembly and commanding the
allegiance of the whole of Russia,
was formed.
Ambassador Bakhmetieff is in con-
slant touch with the new government
which is keeping him advised of
every move being made in Russia for
the regeneration of the cuontry. its
remittance into the war, the abroga-
ton of Brest-Litovsk treaties and the
restoration of the nations unity and
independence.
All principal differences between
the respective factions and regions
represented in the new government
have been swept away and the over
whelming majority of the Russian
people is once more united in the
cause of building the new free Russia
under the guidance of the constituent
assembly, the parliament of Russia,
representing the viii OF all the people
as against the usurper and bloody
oligarchy of Lenine and Trotsky, the
cables to Ambassador Bakhmetief
show. The ambassador himself would
