SECONDARY MARRIAGES IN
GERMANY.

Germany, anticipating the drain on
her population early in the war, urged
her soldiers to marry, enjoining mar
riage upon the women as a patriotic
duty. The government is now going
further in its endeavor to arrest the
diminishing birthrate which has con-
tinuously fallen since the war began.
Pamphlets advocating secondary"
marriages are being circulated among
the troops with the tacit approval of
the officers. These have been trans
lated and commented upon by papers
of other countries, although the Ger
man papers are signally silent on the
subject. Thus it appears, says the De-
troit Free Press, that the circum-
stances which followed the Thirty
Years War are to be repeated in or
der to fill the empty cradles in Ger
many

financial restrictions as to marriage
imposed upon military officers and the
higher classes. 1t is now proposed to
give unconventional connection a
semi-legal standing One of these
pamphlets says married men should
contract alliances with unmarried
women, who are not only authorized,
but called upon to enter into such
unions That is, to perpetuate her
military traditions. Germany would
make the women of the nation mere
vehicles of reproduction. breeding
animals to provide for the future
needs of a German army, thus dedicat-
ing children yet unborn to the Moloch

Germany, as we know, has violated
every rule of international law and
humanity in the present conflict, car
rying out her theory that any means
toward the designed end is justihable.

undertake anything which will bring
large numbers of children together
and possibly expose some to measles,
mumps or whoopingcough Up to date
these diseaseS have taken a mild
course, but mothers are advised to
keep their children from exposure just
as far as possible. The public will
