The best name for the German idea
of government is that applied by for
mer Chancellor Won Buelow in his
book Imperial Germany" He calls
Germany Military State" There Is
no more descriptive name than this.
Germany has a Parliament or Reichs-
tag, to be sure, but the Reichstag has
no real control over the Army. Sup
plies are voted years in advance, and
taxes once levied continue to be col
lected without the consent or Parlla-
ment-its consent is only necessary
for new taxes. The Chancellor is not
responsible to the Reichstag, but is
appointed by the Emperor, and the
Emperor appoints whom he pleases.
The Foreign Minister and the other
officers that in this country would De
cabinet officers. are not responsible to
Parliament but are responsible to the
Chancellor. But the Army is not re-
sponsible to the Chancellor-it is the
strong right arm of the Emperor alone.
The General Staff is the Staff of the
Emperor 1t is the most powerful
group of men in Germany. Their plans
are secret and they cover years-even
scores of years-ahead. No wonder
Military State"
Besides the Emperor and Parlia-
ment Germany is governed by the
Bundesrat, or Council of the Empire,
of which we in America hear very lit
tie. This body is far more powerful
than the Reichstag, of which we hear
a great deal. It represents the var1-
Gus States of the Empire-that is, 1t
represents the rulers Of the twenty
five states which constitute Germany.
The delegates are diplomats, the per-
sonal representatives of the numerous
monarchs, great and small, OF Ger
many. The representation of the states
is as follows. Prussia has seventeen
delegates, Bavaria has six, and there
are seventeen states with only one
apiece. The states vote as unit as
their respective rulers order. The
one-delegate states are, in practice,
completely under the control of the
Emperor. All of the deliberations OF
the Bundesrat are secret. 1t is re-
sponsible to nothing on earth = not
even to public judgment upon the logic
and motives back of its secret discus
siOns. Most legislation for Germany
begins in this body and its consent is
necessary for all legislation. Thus
the Princes of Germany, and in the
last resort the Emperor, have the
power of absolute veto on all "popu-
lar" reforms and legislation.
But even the Reichstag is not gen
timely representative body. The cleo
toral districts of the Reichstag were
laid out in 1871. Since that date there
has been practically no change. The
growth of population has been in the
cities, so that members elected in the
Liberal or Social Democrat centers
are elected by hundreds of thousands
of voters, and those in the other dis
tricts by few thousand. A Berlin
deputy represents 125,000 voters, and
a Junker of East Prussia Is elected
by an average of $4,000.

124 Names on One List.
The heaviest toll for a single day re-
ported since the first American sol
diers landed in France was shown by
the list of April 5, which contained 124
names.
Specific reference is made to twenty
one men having been captured by the
Germans. Twenty Of these previously
had been reported missing and one
previously reported dead.
During the last week correspondents
with the American forces have report
ed unusual activity by the Germans on
the fronts where the Americans are
in the trenches, the dispatches OF. Sun
day referring to the heavy artillery
bomba rdment Of the trenches held by
Gen. Pershings men. A number OF
the casualties reported are belieyed to
have occurred among the engineer
tie in Picardy.
Suspended by Bakers Order.
The issuing OF the daily casualty
lists was suspended after receipt OF
a general order from Secretary Baker
in France that in future all news re-
lating to the expeditionary forces must
come from the headquarters OF Gen.
Pershing.
While 1t was not believed that the
order was intended to refer to- the
casualty lists, Acting Secretary
Crowell and Maj. Gen. March. acting
chief OF staff, decided to hold them up
until a formal ruling on the point
could be obtained from Mr.. Baker.
Pressure still is being exercised In
the attempt to have published the
home addresses and next OF kin OF
each man named in the casualty list.
This system was abandoned by the
war department after Gen. Pershing
had reported receipt of formal pro-
test from the French government that
It resulted IN the enemy obtaining
valuable military information.
object to Dates.
It is believed here that the feature
objected to by the French was the
inclusion of the date on which the SOL
der was killed or injured.
President Wilson is understood to
have this matter under consideration
now, but he is expected to withhold
final decision until he has had an OPP
portunity to discuss the matter with
Secretary Baker on the latter's return
from Europe.
