PREFACE

For Il years the kaiser was
my patient. All I know of him
and all that he told me came to
me while the relation of patient
and dentist existed between us.
For that reason I felt at first
that, no matter how vital to the
allied cause might be the infor-
nation I could give as to the kali
sser's viewpoint, ambitions and
plans, the requirements of pro-
fessional ethics must seal my
lips and compel me to withhold
it from the world at large.
When, however, I considered
the grave crisis that confronts
the world and in which my own
country is playing so important
q part. and realized that what I
knew of the kaiser might prove
Of some value to civilization,
concluded that my patriotic duty
was paramount and rose SUI
perior to any of the ordinary de-
mands of professional ethics.
In this conclusion I was
strengthened by the urgent solicit
tation of the leaders of my pro-
fessiOn who were most emphatic
In their contention that my
ethical qualms were entirely un-
warranted in view of all the cir
cumstances.

Freed Holy Land.

London, Sept. 24.-The cleanup eff
fected by General Allenby, which IS
pointed to, here as the quickest and
most complete of the entire war, is
counted as having definitely deprived
the Turks of Palestine. In addition,
besides the personnel of their army,
the defeat has cost them an immense
amount of war material.

This was the first message Of its
kind that i had ever received from the
kaiser. Even in peace times, the pic
ture postals which he had sent to me
from time to time and which were
autographed by him.. were always
signed in German. When, on February
1, the Germans resumed their ruth
less submarine warfare-a move which
was Immediately followed by the
breaking off Of diplomatic relations-I
felt that the kaiser must have fore
seen this consequence and had sent
me the postal as an intimatiOn that
he wanted me to remain in Berlin
nevertheless.
When the Germans sank the Lusi-
tania, living and practicing in Ger

for me. made up my mind then that
would rather return home and COM
mence my professional career all over
again, If necessary, than remain in
country which could sanction such
hideous form of warfare-the wanton
destruction Of women and children. To
that end, I went to New York In the
summer Of 1915 to investigate the re-
quirements for the practice Of my pro-
fession In that state. I had an Illinois
license, but / wanted to be In q posi-
ton to practice In New York, and the
following year I went to New York
again and took the state dental exam

the autumn Of 1915 and later learne2

he is said to have paradcd for the bene-

villas there were delicate electrical IN

French Cannot &c Sent to Germany

LONDON, Dec. 2T.-"We shall not
have peace here until English and AM
erican troops come to keep order" is a
statement attributed to one Of the
riotous German sailors in Berlin by
the correspondent Of the Daily Express
at the German capitol. The correspon-
dent says he talked to the first speak
er, some Of them adding:
Don't let them send tho French or
there will be more fighting -
The correspondent adds that all the
lower classes Of Berlin are willing to
see foreign troops in the capitol feeling
that they have nothing to lose and per-
haps something to gain by the presence
of outsiders.
Richard Barth is quoted by the cores
pondent rs saying that he and his fell.
low cabinet members, Hugo Haasc and
wilhelm Dittman, would not accept tho
responsibility Of ordering an attack on
the sailors. The instructions for tho
attack, he added, were given by Premier
Ebert. Phillip Scheidmann and Herr
Landsberg.
The correspondent considers one OF
the most disquieting factors Of the sit
uation the part played by the sailors
wives and swecthcarts. some Of whop
participated In the fighting. =
