Unrest Is Laid To Germany

Atlantic City, Oct. l3.-lhe SenSa-
tional statement that Germany alone
was responsible for the unrest when
had unsettled France, England and TINS
country since the signing of the arms
tice was made Sunday by Br1gadler
General George H. Harris, but recently
returned from a nine-months' stay IN
Ca,man as the head of the United
States military committee there. zen
,eral Harris declared that Germany Is
attempting the conquest OF Russia
and that if she succeeds IN her puf-
nosa she will have won the war, pc
cause of the enormous military and IN
dpstrial power she will have gained.
Relieving that she can best pursue her
conquest of Russia if her enemies are
engaged in quelling internal striIe,
she has put the business OF e
unrest throughout the world INTO the
hands of the man whose master mino
directed all German espionage during
the war. Germany alone was respon-
sible for the trouble at Flume, de-
clared the general, and Germany start
ed the Bolshevik movement Whleh mas
far reaching effects.
General Harris was speaking pc
fore the final meeting of the Amerl-
AN TIetric Railway Association, OF
winch he was formerly head and
which has been in convention here
since Monday. Coming from the man
who has had such opportunity to earn
the German mind through his position
as head of the military mission TO Der
lin the generals statement deeply I'M
messed his audience. He was the hrst
q~enera officer of the American army
to enter Berlin after the signing OF the
armistice and was there throughout
the Sparticist uprising and other DEM
0nstrationS.
Armistice Signed Too Soon
Germany feels that she a more
quickly recover industrial supremacy,
sooner get concessions on the peace IN
demnity she must pay lowered II she
can have her foes disturbed by internal
unrest" said General Harris. "You
NAV think | am going too far in say
ing that Germany is responsible Tor
the unrest which has troubled France,
England and this country, but | as
sure YOU | am not. | know that Ger
many was responsible, although can
not now tell you how l know. For my
mart I wish the armistice had not been
signed on November 18th. 1t is too
had that the men who had the fighting
to do were not consulted IN the pohtl-
cal end of the business of signing the
armistice. If the armistice had not
been signed when it had, Germany
would have found out that she was
whipped, a fact of which she is not so
certain today. l was in Berlin when
German armies arrived home and they
were hailed as the unbeaten army
bands played, flags were unfurled and
there was a great celebration. L
could not help but smile when they sang
'"The Watch on the Rhine" when as a
matter of fact, not n person could
have even had a glimpse at the Rhine
without the permission of an Amerl-
can army.
eve know that Lenine was sent in
to Russia with a special train and
great sums of money to carry on his
work of bolshelvism. Lenine and
Trotsky and the German Government
shake fists at one another in public,
but they sit down and eat together in
private and laugh at the whole world
which they think they are fOoling.
Germany alone was responsible for
the trouble at Fiume and she is busy
spreading unrest everywhere"
If The Above Be So
Consider the politicians who are
blocking the Peace Treaty and League
of Nations Covenant; also those who
cut off appropriations and urged the
withdrawal of soldiers from guard
duty in foreign countries.
