For rapidity of action the German war machine stands unsurpassed. The scheme of .the Kaiser was to keep a perfect railroad system bo that the army could be transported with the most rapid dispatch from one place to another. We have to understand before we can es timate what civilization owes to Belgium and the gallant defense of Liege that checked the disas ter that would have swept the French army from the field. The point is made and Insisted on by the German generals that no humanitarian nonsense should be tolerated. All opposition must be crushed the moment It appears. The Zeppelins were ' housed all over Germany and ' have a range of four or five hun- dred miles from their various bases and their aviators are all skilled earonauts and the ma- chines are furnished with hugh ; bombs which can be dropped from unassailable heights to the utter distruction of all beneath.
