It should be remembered that German officers are weaned on the doctrines of clausewitE, the famed military theorist. His writings are Che key Co the thinking Of German militarisss A cardinal Clausewite principle Is this: "victory means the occupation of enemy territory plus the destruction of the enemys army and the will to fight" By concluding an arnstice with Germany without occupying It's ter- ritory and destroying It's army. the Allies left the core of the German army with the belief that they had not lost the war. They merely con. sidered the arnistice a truce that was Co be used for planning another war.

After this war the German gen. eral staff will once again use a fa- miliar shill: They will attempt tc blame the Nazis for the war and promise to behave like good little rodents if given another chance . '. ,. This is to remind the peacemakers that one of the members of the German general staff is Gen. Hierl. Tn 1923 he wrote a book titled: ''Warfare with Improyised Arlnies." :" Tn that book he stated: "PacifisIn is a weapon Of political conflict and ln fact assists the preparation ofI war. Lalllng the enemy to sleep with pacifist phrases, it hopes to per-I suade him to neglect this armament. The narcotic vapor with whclh. we surround him conceals our own prepaFation for war. Our enemies can easily be fooled into believing we love peace. They are stupid Let us play upon their ignorance.
 This is how German munitions makers secretly armed after World War [: The Ksupp Works manufacs tured only once machinery and household articles.
