KING ALBERT is PRAISED
FOR HIS BRAVERY

London, Oct. 29.-King Albert Of
Belgium and Premier Clemenceau of
France were apparently so Indifferent
to shell fire recently as to arouse the
admiration of the Belgian soldiers.
One of them describes the incident
thus:
"The scene is laid among the ruins
of part of the Belgian front daily
shattered by shells, bombs, of aerial
torpedoes. In the street parallel tc
the church a little group of persons
are walking. A tall khaki figure
seems to be guiding a civilian and
some French officers. It is Belgian
general wandering leisurely up and
down answring questions and giving
explanations to his guests. From our
dugout we soldiers watch with curl.
osity.
Suddenly a whistle, an explosion
and burst of smoke but 30 yards
from the visitors. Not one OF them
took any notice. Another. Ii falls
quite near. The Belgian general
the civilian and their suits have not
turned their heads, merely continue
their walk as slowly as before. While
the fire continues, the visitors are
getting nearer our dugout and we
stand at attention.
THE Belgian general is King Al
bert, the civilian M. Clemenceau

So many people seem to think the
Germans excel in these features of
modern warfare that depend on en-.
cheering skill that it Is interesting
to find that the Germans themselves
regard the French as their superiors
in this respect.
The German officer, We are told, is
military leader. pure and simple;
he leaves technical matters to civil
ians. Civilians build the big guns |;
civilians also, it is to be presumed,
have developed the details Of such
weapons of offense as gas-generators
and fiame-throwers. Military men
operate them, but they simply fol.
low instructions.
One can not help wondering wheth-
er this may not explain the fact that
neither gas nor flame has yet won a
battle for the Teutons.
The point of view noted above Ia
quoted by The Electrical Review
Nondon), from a report in LIE Genie
Civil (Paris), of a speech delivered
in Germany by Dr. Won Rieppel, pres
ident of the German Society of En-
gineers. The editor Of The Review
believes that English army engineers
are also suffering from some of the
faults set forth.
Discussing DR.. Won Rieppels ad-
dress, the writer says:
The speaker said that Germany
did not foresee that the war would
become an economic and technical
war; the military schools were de-
signed solely to produce men fitted to
command and familiar with the art
of war, and economic and technical
questions were practically ignored by
them. He had been struck by the
difference between their own ideas
on this subject and those of the
French when he visited the Univer-
sal Exposition of 19O0 as a member
of the jury on civil engineering
works, he had several times had to
Judge splendid buildings of which the
architect was French officer, and
he was surprised to learn that large
number of French officers received a
very comprehensive training, and at
the end of their studies had to pass
examinations in engineering.
"These young officers often acted
as engineers, especially in the colo.
MES, where they were able to make
use of their general knowledge and
render valuable service in connection
with economic and technical matters.
There was nothing of this kind in
Germany, and this deficiency had led
to serious results.
During recent years the technol-
ogy Of the arms of war had made
unprecedented progress; industry
had provided the officer with greatly
| improved, but complicated, weapons,
the mechanism of which he did not
clearly understand The German of.
