the barbarous and pitiless system of
hostages, deportations en- masse, the
carrying off of young girls from the
city of Lille. who were torn from their
families and delivered defenseless to
the worst promiscuity; the system
attic devastation of entire regions with
out military utility; the submarine war
without restriction, including inhuman
abandonment of victims on the high
seas; and innumerable acts against
non-cOmbatants, committed by German
authority in violation of the laws of
the land. Responsibility, at least moral
responsibility, for all these acts are
laid at the door of the former emperor
of Germany.
A dispatch from The Hague says
that the Dutch government has asked
the former kaiser to surrender himself
to the allies, in the hope of avoiding
complications between Holland ant
the entente. The allies request fol
