The newspaper thinks, however,
; that the calmcr tone in which Lloyd
George spoke is worth noting, and

me as worse than any individual ex-
cess, any individual outrage, could
ever have been or can ever be; be-
cause these crimes indubitably weL,
instigated on a wholesale basis by
order of officers of rank, and must
have been carried out under their
personal supervision, direction and
approval. Briefly, what I saw was
this: l saw wide areas of Belgium
and France in which not q penny's
worth of wanton destruction had
been permitted to occur, in which
the ripe pears hung untouched upon
the. garden walls; and | saw other
wide areas where scarcely one stone
had been left to stand upon another;
where the fields were ravaged; where
the male villagers had been shot in
squads; where the miserable surviv-
ors had been left to den in holes, like
wild beasts.
Taking the physical evidence Of
fered before our own eyes, and but
tressing it with the statements made
to. us, not by the natives but by
German soldiers and German officers,
we could reach but one conclusion,
which was that here, in such and
such place, those in command had
said to the troops: Spare this town
and these people, and there they
had said: Waste this town and
shoot these people, And here the
troops had discriminatory spared, and
there they had discriminatory wasted,
in exact accord with the word of
their superiors.' Irwin S. Cobb,

To thoroughly know the virtues OF

test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in Bamberg. People who testi-
fed years ago to relief from back
ache, kidney and urinary disorders,
now give confirmed testimony-de-
clare the results have lasted. How
can any Bamberg sufferer longer
doubt the evidence?

backaches and my kidneys didn't act

Statement by Won Bissing.

OCoCCuA~AG ~ SOA DlSS1uSs
Belgium, Gen. Won Bissing said:
Speaking on August 20, 1914, at
Munster, the extreme measures which
the Germans had felt obliged to
take against the civil population of
''The innocent must suffer with
the guilty. In the repression
of infamy, human lives cannot be
spared, and if isolated houses, -four
ishing villages, and even entire towns
are annihilated, that is assuredly
regrettable, but it must not excite
ill-timed sentimentality. All this
must not in our eyes weigh as much
as the life of single one of our
brave soldiers-the rigorous accomp-
lishment of duty is the emanation of
a high kultur, and III that, the popu-
lation of the enemy countries can
learn a lesson from our army
Gen. Won Bissing, after his oppoint-
ment as governor general of Bel
GUM, repeated in substance the
above opinion to a Dutch journalist.
The interview is published in the
Dusseldorfer Anzeiger of December
s, 1914.

ions of the responsibility of the

The System of Frightfulness.

The quotations and the procla-
nations printed above show clearly
the attitude of mind of the German
military authorities. The policy of
frightfulness had been exalted into
a system with every minute detail
worked out in advance. The German
War Book with it's &C cold-blooded
doctrines of the nature of war and
the means which may be employed
in prosecuting war" did it's work in
training the German officials. Of
this book it has been we'll said: 'It
is the first time in the history of
mankind that creed so revolving
has been deliberately formulated by
a great civilized State" The generals
gave their sanction to this policy of
frightfulness. Gen Won Bernhard
was quoted in an interview in the
Neue Freie Presse of Vienna as fol-
lows:
zone cannot make war in a senti-
mental fashion. The more pitiless
the conduct of the war, the more
humane it is in reality, for it will
run its course all the sooner. The
war which of all wars is and must be
most humane is that which leads to
peace with as little delay as possible. -
This interview was produced in
the Berliner Tageblatt of November
20, 1914.

Relief Commission, tells, in the
