WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES, May 24. One of the "Imperative military necessities" for tho inered Iblo devastation and destruction be ing wrought by the Gormans along tho pathway ot their retreat In France Is to convince the German soldiers themselves that If they eith er desert or surrender to the French thoy will bo instantly shot In re prisal. German soldiers now being taken prisoners by the French along the en tiro front between the Alsne and Saint Quontln declare without ex ception to their captors that they realize they are going to be shot and aro quite prepared ror It. While the Germans manifestly havo vnrloiiB alms in view in their systematic policy of reducing every Inch ot Fronch soil occuplod by them to a wasteless desert, tho French military authorities have been nblo to estubllsh dotliiltoly rrom the Ger man prisoners captured that no', the leust or theRO objects Is to Injoct the morale or desperation into tho Ger man army. . Tho latter aro told not only that thoy will bo Instantly klllod If they fall Into the hands of the French, but that unlesB they right to tho doath In an errort to koop the allied troops rrom reaching Gorman soli tholr own homes, farms and villages will quite naturally sutror tho Bame rate by way or reprisal that thoy have Inflicted on the homoB, fnrtmrand villages of Franco.

One of the most striking evidences of this were, the orders of Hindenburg himself, issued after the French attacks at Verdun last November and December. The prisoners in these two affairs alone totaled nearly 20,000. Hindenburg In his orders to his generals, copies of which have Blnce fallen Into the hands ot the French, scathed In merciless terms the lack or moralo on the part or the Ger man troops which permitted them to surrender by thousands without tho slightest resistance. Impera tive orders that' all responsible of ficers tako Immediate steps to over come this condition w?re given. Since then, however, this tenden cy of the Germans to surrender on rll?Tlb!Z?0," 1,"8J".f8e,!l'nt ot the Commercial clui.. al- so steadily that Hindenburg himself has boon forced to take heroic meas ures to overcome It. Gorman Boldlers now being taken prisoners as well as other sources confirm the fact that it was Hinden burg who conceived tho Idea for the wholesale devastation of all terri tory which the Germans are forced to abandon. It Is under his orders that all German regiments now fall ing back on the western front have regularly appointed crews whose sole business it is to destroy all property and to leave every Inch of the ground that goes back Into tho hands of the French a veritable desert. These same sources confirm that one ot Hlndonburg'B principal objects in this Is to place the entire German army now on the west In a position whore It will realize thnt It la better to dio fighting than to surrender, and whore It will realize that only fighting to the last will snvo tholr own homes from the same fate they have inflicted on Franco.
