a lener irom i or porai
l-!8th field artillerv, a Portland bov, details other in
stances of barbarity and reflects in the following the sen
timent ol the American fj'oops towards the enemy a
sentiment the Hun has created by his own atrocities:
"You say not to havo hatred In my heart tor tho German people, but
rather for tho principles they represent. Now. they themselves are tho

Cross auto onto tlio field as It lo KiUher tho wounded, drop tho sides and

"They deservo no ijuarter and I hey get as little"
(icrmans have been educated for over "0 years to be
lieve in barbarism. The instructions contained in the of
ficial "(lerinan War l!ook." published as instruct ions to
the army in lf)0U contains among other gems the fol
lowing: "In such dangerous thlnits as war, tho errors which proceed from a
spirit of 'Kood-nnturctlnesH' nro precisely tho worst." ... "The enemy
must not be spared the want and wretchedness of war; these are parlieu
larly useful In shatleiiuK Us energy and aiibdulag its will." "Indi
vidual porsons may bo harshly dealt with when an example Is made of

breaks out, lerroriMn becomes a necessary milllarv principle." "lly

In order to assist Ccrnian officers in carrying out the
rpirit of this advice, a manual was prepared for them in
liHHi, called ".Military Interpreter for Use in the Kneiny's
Country," in which were provided translations in French
of proclamations threatening town and villages with de
struction "without pity" unless wholesale fines were
paid. The proclamations were used in clgiuin and
France and show that all the atrocities had the sanction
of (Ierman officialdom and were heartily approved by
the (lerinan people.
.For half a century (lermans have been taught these
precepts from the cradle but. they were religion in Prussia
for a century before in fact the Prussian, a mixture of

oOO.OOO Americans for army duty if needed. An
army of five millions is the present goal ot the war depart
ment four millions in I'' ranee by dune 1 anil another
million in training to fill the gaps.
An army of lour million on the front will be double
the sie of the I'.riiish army in France and a million more
than the French army. It will give the allied forces an
overwhelming superiority in man power over (Iermany,
whose army is now numerically superior to the combined
Fi-ciiclt-and lirilish forces. Should the Austrian army be
thrown on the western front, the allied forces would still
retain superiority.
The supremacy in man power which we are just be
ginning to establish will be further supplemented by the
overwhelming superiority in munitions and equipment.
Our newly built war machinery has finally began to func
tion and quantity production of everything essential is
underway. In any given Hue we will far surpass the
enemy.
There will shortly be registered for militarv dutv in
America a total of over 'J.",0i )0,( 100 men. !,."00.H0 being
registered in the first draft law last year between 'Jl anil

SOO.000 in the old regular army and national guard. 100,
000 in the navy and T'i.000 in the marine corps.
From this number must be deducted the cripples juid
unlit, and enemy aliens, but if n ssary there are more
than enough men over l" lit for military duty to replace
all those rejected. The army will be selective in everv
sense --the cream of the count rv.

ARE HANDLED WELL
UNDER UNCLE S
(By .Milton Dronner.)
WASHINGTON', Auk. 31. Uncle
Sam as manager of l-.e railroads has
demonstrated he can handle oil tank
cara hetter than anyhody else, there
by making it possible to cancel or
ders for thousands ot these cars.
There has always been trouble
about the speedy movement of tank
cars, the result belns that tho eom-
I panics an tho roads had to own
more than were really needed. Last
Juno Director General McAdoo . or
dered that on July 1 nil tank cars be
brought under liniflci. control thru a
central office in Chicago. Records
were to be kept there showing the
performance of those cars.
Tills was tried out first with the
great mid-conlinent lines and is now
being applied in the eastern section.
The result Is that today in the nild
continent field there is at hand at
the refining stations a supply of tank
cars ample to take care of all de
mands for IS hour3 ahead. By this
means the oil Industry is in a position
to supply all needs at short notice

ERMAN MUTINEERS
IJOIN lilll
LOX!HN', An-. :!. Twelve hun
dred tiermuii mutineers have joined
forces with an ar;ned peasant body
ami ati;icked the ( lerinan Oce.- in
the region of lJymera, 24 miles from
Kiev, acr-ordintr to a Kussian wireless
dispatch received here today from
MiM'ow. Tieree l'ihtiny; lias taken
place between the (ierinans and the
peasants and there have been heavy
losses on both sides.
and 1 think of the thousand other
Lood thiii'-'s they are doinr i'or our
boys, too.
When I left France just a few days
ao, as that actual few weeks now
seems, I went over to call on Cap
tain Archie Uoo-evelt, one of tin four
brave sons of the man the American
soldiers asked me most about. And
Archie looked so fine and yet so pale
from the on weeks of sni'ferinu in
Ihe hospital, ( felt I miuhi be wearin
on his strength lo talk too loiiu, and
when I was about to leave a li-ht
came in his fine face and he fairly
shouted to me, 'You tell dad when
you see him that the lir.-t chaii'-e he
tre Is to.be sure and say a jood word
tor tiie Salvation Army. They are
the real thinu ucr here, judtic."
And after hoarinir Archie relate the
tales of their her-d-m as he !uul per
sonally witnessed it with our dead
and dyin-r and wounded and ium-'rv
boys, you couldn't help but take nfl
your hat and shout for the Salvation
Army and, what is mury important,
-jo down in your purse and diir up
all you've i;ot to -pare for them. The
other war charities are all riidit but
the word.- of the boy- e er where
over there rinir in my ear- over hi-p:
"Whatever vou ilo, don't forutt tin
Salvation Army."
