the supreme army command hold il
to be its duty to the country, to the
army, and to each individual soldier
fighting at the front TO insist on the
men at home really working hard.
No more men could be withdrawn
or withheld from The army. The fall

The government should have made
especial cndeavors to influence the
working class by full explanation of
the seriousness Of our position, and
should also not have hesitated to use
force, If the end could not otherwise
have been achieved,
The supreme army command knew

return of troops to civil life there
were cases Of favoritism, which of
necessity had the same embittering
effects as the Sinking at home. Often
and often I begged the ministry of
war to nut q stop to this.
