Count Von liernstnrl'f, former German nm bassador to the United States, be fore the war, spoke disparingly of German citizens in this country, say ing (hey bad run away from the fatherland to avoid military service and were "outlaws," nccording to a. statement made public today by Sen ator l'helnn of California, in con nection with comment on the passage of the war army bill. The remarks attributed to Von Hernstorl'f, Senator I'helan explained, were made during nn interview which he had with the ambassador in Mun ich in 1013 in an effort to get Ger many to participate in the Panama I'acifie exposition. Mr. I'helan urg ed n German exhibit on the ground Hint Germans in the United States would be proud of it. "He immediately resented that," said Senator I'helan in his statement. "Much to my surprise he substantial ly said 'do not talk about those peo ple. We do not care what they think or want. They hnve deserted the fatherland. They have run nwav to avoid military duty. They have been false to the old traditions. They are outlaws,' nnd that was the sentiment of official Germany then, as I be lieve it is today. They regard these good people, who are expected to ren der service to the autocracy now, as outlaws, as men who have fled from their duty. "I think our Germnn American cit izens should know nnd understand that which is the Prussian estimate of them nnd they would be confirm ed in what I believe to bo their sin cere conviction that their duty lies with America in this struggle." CHIEF OF STAFF ; PATHS, April .'10. The appoint ment of General I'elain as chief of staff is generally welcomed as a timely reform which had long been ndvocaled by military experts. Gen eral l'etain, as technical adviser to tho government will occupy very much tho same position ns General Sir Win. lioberlson in London, and will bo responsible- for tho general conduct of operations wherever l'Veiieh troops are engaged. In addition to his appointment it is understood that the government contemplates various other measures of reorganization, based on an ex amination of the military situation nnd tho lessons taunht by tho re cent operations. The Petit Parisien says that certain services whose workings have been shown to be de fective will be overhauled and thai changes will be mado among the leaders whose tnleuls could be more judiciously used.
