right. With deep grief I see my native province faced with period of much difficulty and sorrow.
 On the morning of September fs l arrived in Greslau. A telegram came almost immediately, saying that gen eral headquarters agreed to my pro- posal of the evening of the 14th. Gen eral won Hindenburg, with the, bulk of the Eighth army, was to march immed- lately to the support of the Austrian army in Upper Silesia. This force was to form the Ninth army.
 The following remained in East Prus- sia forming the Eighth army: First Cav. Div. First A. C., First R. C., Third Res. Div von der Goltz's Landwehr Division, several Landwehr brigades, the main Konigsberg reserve, and also <he garrisons of the Nistula fortresses with the exception of the 35th Reserve Division, which had been formed mainly out of the garrison of Thorn. General von Schubert was placed in command
 The Ninth army was formed out of the Eighth Cav. sDiv., the 11th. 17th and goth A. C., the Guard R. C., the 35th Res. Div. and Count won Bredow's Land wehr Division. The line of march had to be settled. Landstrum forces, which had taken up extended positions on the Polish side of the frontier between Kattowitz and Thorn, were able to CONCE lHSlI ElONCulCHlS.
 The army Headquarters staff wanted to concentrate the army somewhere be- tween Beuthen and Pleschen. General headquarters, however, in view of the situation of the Austrian army thought is necessary that the movement should be more directly southeast, so that the fact that we were German reinforce ments for Austria Hungary and the Austrian army might be more obvious.
 Accordingly, the 11th A. C., forming the right wing of the Ninth army, went to Cracow. and the left was brought down further south to correspond. The proximity of the Austrians necessarily had the effect of cramping the move ments of the Ninth army, but no serious disadvantages ensued.
 In the next instaiment Gen. Luden- dorff tells of the serious plight in which he found the Austrian army, how he determined that an attack was neces- snry to retrieve the situation and of the beginning of the combined German- Austrian advance on both sides of the Vhtula.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE ADOPTION OF THE FEDERAL
CONSTITUTION

William K. Gladstone, the great pre-
mier of England. declared the consti-
tuition of the United States to be the
greatest document of its class that
ever sprang from the mind of man.
1t commands the undivided veneration
and fealty of all patriotic Americans.
The mercenary liquor traffic has the
invidious distinction of making the
first organized, determined assault up
on our organic law. The distillers
even assail the constitutionality of the
constitution itsAn. The saloon has
always taught and exemplified con-
tempt for law. and recent events go
TO show that this contempt extends
to and includes the constitution of our
country in their most favorable inter-
probation, The efforts of the liquor
interests to undermine and nullify the
constitution is incipient archy.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1919-09-16

September II is the birthday of the
constitution of the United States,
This document was largely the work
Of the famous convention of 1887. 1t
differs essentially from its predecessor
the articles of confederation--in
that 1t dealt with individuals, con-
ferred large coercive powers upon the
federal government, provided an eff
cieut executive and simplified and
made easier the amending OF the con-
stitution.
The constitution of the United
states is Magma Charta OF the
worlds civil liberties--the Ten Conn
mandments OF popular legislation. Ii
has served as a model for the organic
laws of free nations everywhere. For
80 years II has held the high place
of supreme authority in the deter
mination of American civil rights.
