THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX, PORTLAND, JANUARY 7, 1917. 11 If InHitle the tirrman Kmplre, by Herbert Bayard Swope. 2. IlltiBtrated. The Cen tury Co., New York city. Mr. Swope made a three months' trip fhrouirh war-disciplined Germany in the latter part of 1916. and thia his book is just issued from the printing presses. It is a cautious, searching Inquiry of a trained newspaper re porter of the New York World, as to the manner in which Germany and her allies are sustaining themselves after more than two years of war. The book makes unusually interest ing reading, and frank opinions are openly expressed. One great merit Mr. Swope has as an observer he does not take either side whether for or against German, and makes no hide-bound pre diction as to what nation shall emerge eventually as victor in the present war. James W. Gerard, our Ambassador to the German empire, writes as a fore ward: '"The facts and impressions con tained in this book, gathered 'first hand by the author, whose friendship I value and whose professional equip ment I admire, form an important con tribution to contemporaneous history and possess a referential value for the future. No subject today is more vital or worthier of serious attention." If the German allies win. If the entente allies win. These are the two central thoughts of the entire volume. These extracts show a few of Mr. Swope's observations: "The attitude of the German peo ple toward the big men of the govern ment is curiously mixed. I could not find one single dissonate note in the chorus of support, sympathy, admira tion, and affection that the Kaiser's name always calls out. The people go wild over von Hindenburg he is their Idol. Mackensen is another who Is en shrined. Falkenhayn was always rather distrusted. Bethmann-Hollweg Is pitied, and his good intentions are appreciated, although there is a belief that he lacks force. "Von Jagow, the ex -Secretary of Foreign Affairs, seems to lack the con fidence of the public. He is looked upon as a relic of the old school of Ger man diplomacy, to which the Germans attribute a large share of their present misfortunes. Jagow Is of a subtle, casuistic, indirect Metternich type, and because of the Germans' lack of con fidence In their diplomatic corps, this ultra-diplomatio type Is no longer pop ular In the empire. "On the other hand, ZImmermann, who was chief permanent Under-Se"c-retary of Foreign Affairs, and suc ceeded Jagow as Chief Secretary, is a man of the people big, broad, sim ple, direct, forceful and magnetic. He is the man who will bulk big on the German stage when It is reset by the Liberals, who are now engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the Con servatives for the fatherland. Count von Bernstorff, Ambassador at Wash ington, D. C, under attack by his per sonal enemlej at the outbreak of the war, has now won the approval of his government and the people by his work In this country. TJpon my arrival at the Hotel Ad Ion in Berlin I was provided with meat-and-bread cards. The bread-cards had little tabs on them, each calling for 25 grams of kriegsbrot (war bread made of a mixture of wheat flour, corn flour and potato meal, looking and tasting like our ordinary rye bread). Each tab was good for a slice of bread. A roll required two tabs, or 50 grams. The meat-cards entitled one to a slice and a half, or 75 grams daily. The meatless days are Tuesdays and Fri days. In compensation the days upon which one can obtain butter are also Tuesday and Fridays. Fats for frying can be had on Mondays and Thursdays. "Tn the hotels and restaurants sugar and cream are not served. In place of sugar little particles of saccharine are given, and in the place of cream a thin-skimmed milk. The cream and sugar are kept for hospital use. While it is possible to regulate the service of meats and butters tn a restaurant it is not so easy to do so In households, and so the system for the householders is changed. "Every family Is given a card call- Ins- for the quantity to- which Its size entitles it, and then these cards are used on etated days at the various markets. Every family has a regular day on which it buys its meat supplies for the week. This is to prevent the outcner Demg loaaea aown wrtn an un. necessarily great supply. He stocks ' Just the amount he knows his various customers will require, and for which they present their cards, which he in turn presents to the central govern-? mental supply station on renewing his StOCK. "Throughout Germany today the hatred for America Is bitter and deep. It is palpable and weighs one down. All the resentment, all the blind fury Germany once reserved for England alone have been expanded to include us, and have been accentuated In the expansion. "The Germans have an outlet for their feelings against England. They .express themselves on the battlefields md through the Zermelins and sub marines, but against America they'lack a. method of registering their enmity. And to this bitterness that cannot be poured out, has struck in and satur ated the whole empire. "Trie chagrin and humiliation of their failure to end the war before now through victory is visited upon Amer 1ca. The failure gave birth to hatred. Throughout the length and breadth of Germany the belief la certain and un qualified that had It not been for American moral and physical help to the allies the war would long since have been over. With magnificent die regard of the checks and reverses, both military and economic, that Germany has suffered at the hands of the allies, her sons, from top to bottom, say that only America is to blame for the fact that the war is now well Into its third year, and the more pertinent fact that as time goes on the German chances are bound to grow less. "It 1 a commonplace to talk of In sults to those speaking English In the streets of Germany. Whenever the explanation Is made that the speaker is American, the answer comes, 'The Americans are the worst of all." There can be no doubt of the depth of this feeling; it even Invades business. Two enterprising. well-connected young New Yoirkers,- who had gone to Ger many on business, George Axmacher and Reinhardt Koch, were about to have an important commercial con tract signed in Chemnitz, only to have the German merchant tear up the pa pers before them because he had got word that day that a friend of his had been killed "by an American shell." If one is to believe the stories one hears In Germany, every German soldier killed so far has been killed by Amer ican ammunition. ' Major Griesel, chief of the war press bureau in Berlin kee,s three American shells on his desk by way of welcoming the Amer lean correspondents, and then to make them feel at home he adds that he was wounded by one of them. "At the German front one Is told either that every American shell has killed a battalion, or that It is a 'blind ginger' (blind goer, that Is, missed fire). There are no average shell made In America, It seems: either they commit wholesale murder or are utterly worthless. "At one of the biggest of the Berlin I LUKen. tKe fiK-L begins wilhin J A himself A nsmvs woirth J SomeiKirv.!' jl T w-i r fiolreT Brown ingr. W fc ) JZozc2 JWor-fj hotels it is a noticeable fact that all the floor waiters are young, active, highly ntelligent men. When they are asked why they are not serving at the front all have excuses on the score of health. The truth is that they are all govern mental agents whose duty it is to fa miliarize themselves with the details of every visitor's business. That they do well. Every stranger's papers are thoroughly investigated, no matter how securely they may be locked up, before he has been in the city two days, as suming he leaves them in his room. Two members of the American diplo matic corps who. made short stays in Berlin can tell singular stories on this point. The chief of the floor waiters at this hotel and it is illustrative of all the others is a polished-mannered young fellow of about 32 who speaks English, French, Italian, Spanish and Danish with the same facility that be reads them, and he reads them as well as he does his native German. I noticed the chief of the telephone operators, who while discharging the duties of his lowly Job wore livery, attending the races in an English sport-coat, with glasses strung over his shoulders, and he went to and from the course in a taxicab, the height of luxury now In Berlin. One would hardly credit his in come solely to the measly wages he received from his work at the switch board. He, too, as well as his assist ants, was an accomplished linguist. It must not be thought that espion age is confined to the Americans. On the contrary, even the subjects of Ger many's allies receive this attention. Austrian, Bulgarian or Turkish, it makes no difference; all are put under the scrutiny of the secret eyes and ears of the Kaiser. "Germany is re-enacting the story of Joseph and Pharaoh of Egypt, She is storing up her supplies and doling out enough to allow for reasonable living. The state, in seizing the -necessaries, makes certain that the armies will be supplied and that no monopoly will be permitted the wealthy. Rich and poor fare alike. All get the same quantity and get it at the same time and at the same price. This price restriction ap plies to the bigger staples, such as bread, fish, certain sorts of meat, and clothing. With money it is possible to buy the finer grades of flour, poul try, cattle and hog meats, and attire. for there are no restraints put (bout luxuries. The regulations apply only, to the necessities. For example, one can buy silk socks in Berlin today in such quantities and prices as one wishes, but one must have a police per mit, with a careful inquiry preceding its issuance, to buy woolen socks. The same is true of the cheaper grades of clothing, the prices of which have not been much, increased. "The most delicate gifts one can make to one's friends in Germany today consist of meat, butter, eggs and soap. To give up any of these things is like submitting to blood transfusion. On October 1 the empire went on a one-egg-a-week-per-person basis. This was to allow for the feminine vagaries of the hens, and was figured out as the Irreducible minimum of the egg pro duction per week. The actual supply Is really eight or 10 times as large as the allowance, 'but with true German precaution the food dictatorship is safeguarding the supply in the event that the hens go on an egg strike. "The newspapers of Germany are bound to play a big part in the immi nent liberalization of the German Em pire. The government attitude is still largely that of Bismarck toward the 'reptile press." The German belief in the venality of the press, which is the regular theory of operation, was shown only a few days ago when a story em anating from Holland said that some thing like $50,000,000 had been spent by Germany in two years for the sub sidization of public opinion in neutral countries, and It was added that some thing like $10,000,000 had been spent in this country. If that is true, it would account for the readiness with which the Germans believe that all the newspapers in America not friendly to their cause are bought by 'British gold," in which class they place the New York Times and New York Trib une, and also the World, whenever its editorials or news columns say any thing unrnendiy from the -German point of view. "Early in the war Zimmermann (Ger man Foreign Minister) said that. among other things, it would settle one interesting point, and . that was whether it was .better to be a "journal istreally ruled nation like America and England, or a non-journalistic nation like Germany.'- I asked him when I left Berlin in the Autumn of 1916 if he had reached a decision on this point. He smiled and said, 'Well, perhaps a little more journalistic participation In ci'Ye, ytzZhor' of the affairs of the government might be a good thing; for Germany, after all. At the War, by Lord Northcllffe. $2. Geore H. Do ran Co.. New York City. Lord Northcllffe, previously plain Mr. Harmsworth, son of an Irish bar rister, is the meteor-like man and newspaper genius who is the pro prietor of the London Times and other great newspapers. Earl Warwick, in English history, is called the king-maker from the ease with which he overthrew dynasties. Northcllffe has the strongest voice in the England of today, and is known also as the government-breaker from the success attending his efforts in wreoklng British governments. The book of such a distinguished man and publicist is therefore not able, and internationally important.

Lloyd George,' Premier of Great Britain, said recent ly in speaking: of the battles of the new British armies against those of the Germans: "They (the British) have beaten them, beaten them, beaten them;" Northcllffe' a book is not one I depicting triumph over Germany. It I is a business-like book of newspaper I despatches dealing with battle and army iacis as our aumor nas actually seen them. There is no boasting, no threat. In the preparation of this book. Lord Northcliffe has visited, personally, and often, battle scenes in France and in Italy, and has visited Switzerland and Spain. He says that "this assembly of some of my letters, telegrams and cablegrams, and other writings about the war. and kindred matters, has been made at the request of the Brit ish Red Cross Society and Order of St. John. The generosity of the publish ers will permit any profit that may arise to pass to the joint committee of those societies. The list of contents: Our Soldier Boys Arrive"; The Army Behind the Army: The Women Are Splendid: A Civilian's Impressions of the War; Warolanes: Sir Douglas Halg; Joffre; Cadorna: Under the Six Stars; The War Doctors; Red Cross Visits The People at 83 Pall Mall. London, and Elsewhere: How Some of the Money Is Spent, and The Search for the Miss ing; Life in Rheims; Before Verdun; the New Little Belgian Army; With the Italians In Gorizia. How Oorlzla Was Taken, The Corso Battles. On the Border Front, Fighting in the Dolo mites. The Gate to Italy Barred; Neu tral Glimpses The Germans in Switz erland. Our Released Prisoners. Food for Our Men in Germany, Genava, The Germans in Spain; and. A Spanish Tour. It is stated that the relics and tro phies collected by British soldiers are eagerly prized by relatives, and that British army authorities In France are often in receipt of indignant letters from relatives asking why this or that trifle had not been returned. One let ter said: "I gave my son to the war. You have had him. You might at least return all his property . intact. Where are the pair of gloves and zinc ointment he had with bim?" On page 53jtwe read: "Germans are naturally, so far as the Prussians and Bavarians are concerned, extremely cruel. German non-commissioned offi cers when taken prisoners with their men, treat their private soldiers with a bullying savagery that is astonish ing, and officer prisoners decline ab solutely to pay any attention to their men. even though they have been wounded. A French officer, who had been taken prisoner by the Germans, told me that though the Germans treat ed their lightly-wounded men with ex treme care, because they wished to get them back Into the firing line quick ly, the very badly wounded cases were neglected uatil the very last." Our author reminds his readers that the once safe insularity of Britain Is prone, owing to the rapid development of the aeroplane as an instrument of war. He thinks also that the war has shattered the reserve and caste that used to separate British officers from the enlisted men. and that when the war is over, British soldiers will go back to Britain not as laborers, or ten ants, but as land owners. in otner words, it seems these soldiers by their votes will dominate British legislation In much the same way as did General Grant's soldiers for the first quarter jot a century, in the United States, after the surrender of General Lee. King Manuel, of Portugal, is classed as "a tireless Red Cross worker. A young man with a future. That alert and hustling monarch." German prisoners were met with who "asked to be taken away from the neighborhood of the 'frightful' Eng lish, and nearer to the kindly French." Many persons in the official Spanish court are estimated to be pro-German. 9; high mass, 10:30; evening service. 7 :45. St. Andrew's, East Ninth and Alberta streets Kev. T. Kiernan.

Topic, lv.io, "Our WOUNDED TARS OF BRITAIN'S FLEET ARE CHEERFUL LOT Nurse in English Hospital for Sailors Vividly Tells of Conditions Prevail ing Fund Contributed for Belgian Relief by Portland Residents Welcome. BT EDITH E. LA XT OX. rOMEWHErE IX ENGLAND." a. Dec. 1. My last two wcks at the hospital have been exceed ingly busy ones. One of the three nurses in the la r pre surgrlcal ward which I was in was taken off for special duty, so the two of us who were left had to do the work of three rather a large order. Our sailor patients nobly did all they possibly could to help us, but, as the most serious cases are nursed !n this particular ward, many of them were obliged to stay in bed altogether. Since leaving I have had the same dream every nlgrhL I dream I have to do ten things at once, all urgent and all Immediate, in this busy ward. It is not at all a. restful dream. . Rest la Needed. I Imagine a large slice of rest In tervened between me and my next three months on duty will not be out of place. I go back again in January. The nurses there seem to be greatly looking for ward to spending Christmas at the hos pital. It is certainly a great pleasure to see how the men enjoy the Christ mas' tree, little entertainments and all the festivities of the holiday. I know how the soldiers enjoyed themselves at the military hospital laet year and the sailors are, if possible, even more buoy ant. I have an idea that the merriest Christmas In England this year will be spent at the hospitals. Although I was so rushed on "A" ward that I believe the name of the letter A will always make my ankles ache, there was an interest In the very rush of things there. Many of the pa tients were most entertaining. One of them thoughtfully laid me out a chart of each ward. Al and A2, so that I might navigate with ease in strange waters. Each bed was drawn in and the name of Its occupant written on it. All shoals, snags and derelicts, such as screens, tables and unexpected chairs, were visibly marked on my chart and I had no excuse for running foul of them. My chart was drawn to scale and the points of the compass properly in dicated on the corner. To get to the bed of the man who drew this for me I had to steer a course directly "south by southeast" from the ward kitchen. Sailor Badly Injured. Poor chap! lie was all done up in a plaster of parts jacket and I steered a course hie way Just as often as I could. His nickname was "Ribs" be cause he was so thin, and there was great amusement because his bed broke down one nig-nt with. a great noise. Xo one could tell why. It was promptly put up In splints and bandages until the morning. He occupied "the flag ship. " the boss bed of the ward, given to the one who had been in the ward the longest. It was proudly decorated with all the little flags and rosettes the men had bought on lied Cross and other flag days. The Australian was also a lively oc cupunt of this particular ward. One day I dropped my pencil there when I was taking temperatures; I went back In a hurry to look for it. met the Aus tralian and asked him to do no. About 15 minutes later I went back and found every man out of bed crawling around the floor and diligently searching. I wondered what on earth they were do ing, and said so. Finally I discovered that the mischievous Australian had reported that I had lost a diamond ring. He was somewhat subdued one day be cause his beet girl had transferred her affections to his skipper, whilst he wns in hospital. It took the combined efforts of every man in the ward to write the scathing letter which he sent breaking off the engagement. This Aus tralian insisted that "Ribs'" bed broke down because the German fleet must have come out at last and the firing did it! Ironic cheers from the other men, but utter unbelief. Susie Patients Aid Norses. Several of the men were perfect treasures at helping the nurses. They were always "standing by," ready to do anything they possibly could. One of them mended my coat sleeve for me beautifully one day and nobly offered to darn my stockings for me If I would let him. He said he would back his darning against any woman's for neat Blessed Dead." followed by New Tear's covenant services; 7::to P. M.. "A New Year's Purpose I Will Arise."

The Admiralty really ought to serve out armor-plated ones to the . nurses. One boy was fussing about his splint one morning. He had a broken foot and it seems that the splint slipped. He said: "This splint is no good at all. nurse. When I woke this morning my toe had gone to starboard and my heel to port." Two men had a disagreement about something and I heard the other men say they "had parted brass rags." It appears that good polishing rags are scarce, so if men are very friendly they lend them to each other; if they quar rel they don't! We had one or two wire less men. One used to lie in bed all day long, poor boy, and make little models. He was suffering from "nerves," as well as other things. He was fond of drawing little pictures for the nurses. I have one before me now, three big battleships steaming away on a nice blue sea and a large "union jack" proudly waving nearly all over the picture. Amongst our other duties on A ward we were "keepers of the gate." After the orderly sentry went off duty the big gates of the hospital were clanged to and locked and the key given into the charge of "A," The men who stayed out too late had to ring the big hospital bell, and then, after parley, the late comers' passes or names were taken and those without late passes were up for punishment next morning. Late Arrivals Punished. It was a sad duty, but once the big bell had rung, quite unavoidable. It was perhaps possible for a nurse utter ly without conscience to let a man In occasionally If he did not ring, but dis creetly hung around and whispered. I have heard that the lock was kept well oiled and that the key never squeaked a warning. It is sad to see pathetic faces looking between stern iron bars and hear Imploring voices whisper, "Nurse!" Nurse!" Then Indeed is duty "duty" with a big D. We had a new and very realous or derly on "A" when I was there. He won my heart the first morning by boil ing over with Indignation because his own pet ward had been served last with breakfast. "They serve B and C and Y and V. before they serve A." he spluttered. "First time I've ever heard A was the last letter In the alphabet." . We have a most cheery paralyzed man In one ward. The other men are most awfully good to him. A nightly joke at supper time is to call out "Xurse, the baby wants his bread and milk!" Ho Is "on" bread and milk. Some men are "on" beef tea. others "on" milk, and still others "on" eggs. The ward jarkets in this ward wete long white flannel coats, which gave a very sporting air to the wearers. Some thing like the one the man who keeps performing fleas at a country fair wears, only without the silhouettes of his little pets. My last few days were spent back again on "B." It felt like going home again. One gifted patient there could play any musical Instrument you gave him. He could even play on a throat spray quite musically. He suffered from aphonia (or lack of voice). He certainly made plenty of noise without any voice. He could play more experi ments on a clinical thermometer than any man I ever saw, much to the detri ment of the thermometers. One of mine burst after being plunged into hot cocoa. Navy Geta CJood Cocoa. By the way, the navy never "grouses" (1. e.. grumbles) about its cocoa. It is the absolutely pure article and the best that can be bought. It is served out In the form of rock cocoa. One sailor told me it was the one and only thing they never did "grouse" about My eiderdown quilt worked as hard or harder than I did this last two weeks. The weather was decidedly chilly and I was glad to use It every night and a shivering night nurse begged the use of it by day. so it lived a busy life. Immediately after supper at the hostel there was always a hot water bottle rush. Every nurse rushed upstairs to till her hot water bottle before anyone could use up all the hot water by taking a hot bath! It was really funny to see the scramble. ture by Rev.
