What has happened In Poland, In Belgium, In northern France and every other country that has been blighted by the Hun's pres ence would happen In America should the allies, by any chance, fail to win this war. It would mean the enslave ment of American men. the starving and death of American women and chil dren. Either the Hun or humanity must perish. BEST R epair WORK OPTICAL SPECIALIST +++++++++++++++++++++++++ : The following Is a statement by F. C. Walcott, who served as an assist- tint to Mr. Hoover during the time America wc, doing all that was pos sible to feed the starving millions of Belgium and Poland and northern France. In this work he was brought in direct contact with German military officials, and saw the conditions which the Germen invasion had created among the civilian population : I went to Poland to learn the facta concerning the remnant of a people that had been decimated by war. The country had been twice devastated. First the Russian army swept through it and then the Germans. Along the roadside from Warsaw to Pinsk, the present firing line, 230 miles, nearly half a million people had died of hun ger and cold. The way was strewn with their bones picked clean by the crows. With their usual thrift, the Germana were collecting the larger bones to be milled into fertilizer, but finger and toe bones lay on the ground with the mud-covered and rain-soaked clothing. Wicker baskets were scattered along the way—the basket in which the baby swings from the rafter In every pens ant home. Every mile there were scores of them, each one telling a death. I started to count, but after a little I had to give It up, there were so many. That is the desolation one saw along the great road from Warsaw to Pinsk, mile after mile, more than two hun dred miles. They told me a million people were made homeless in six weeks of the German drive in August and September, 1916. They told me four hundred thousand died on the way. The rest, scarcely half alive, got through with the Russian army. Many of these have been sent to Si beria; It is these people whom the Paderewski committee is trying to re lieve. In the refugee camps, 800,000 sur vivors of the flight were gathered by the Germans, members of broken fam ilies. They were lodged In Jerry-built barracks, scarcely water-proof, un- lighted, unwarmed in the dead of win ter. Their clothes, where the buttons were lost, were sewed on. There were no conveniences, they had not even been able to wash for weeks. Filth (Daklanns DALE ROTHWELL • i the ; ; Stanfield Auto Co PROFESSIONAL CARDS : :+*+*+++++*++++++++ !
