on one occasion having the prisoners

Swiss Writer Warns
 Against German Aims
(BY Associated Pressl

GENEVA, Mar 11.-All Switzer- land is talking about letters written to Swiss newspapers concerning Ger many's military position by Prof. Paul Seippel of the Federal Poly technic College of Zurich. Prof. Seip- pei depicts present day Germany, imperialistic in nature, and insists that within a very brief period Ger many will be able to place in the field a large and menacing army. His letters constitute a sequence to the recent report made by Gen eral Morgan of England concerning German military preparations.
 The professor sets forth that the German universities, both professors and students, are seized with impe- rialism, and that among the German people this doctrine is rapidly mak- ing progress. T do not believe in an immediate war" he continues, "but am convinced that there is de- veloping a situation which will per init the German imperialists to cast off their masks and show all their arrogance and all their ambitions. They have not changed an iota after defeat which they have steadily refused to recognize.''
