HYMN OF HATE SEEN IN ANTI-FRENCH EDITORIAL By Carl D. Groat. (United Press Correspondent.) Berlin. (By Mail.)—Something akin to a “hymn of hate” is rising up in Germany against France. So far it hasn’t found emphatic expression in the press. But, every move on the part of the entente which displeases Germany is general- ly attriouted to the influence of Cle- menceau and Tardieu. And, there is an undercurrent of talk which sug- gests that some day—not in this gen- -eration probably, but later—there will be new trouble in which uer- many and France will again fly at <each other’s throats. Theodore Wolff, editor of the Tage- dblatt, a man of sane judgment, and mild language, took occasion in a re- <cent issue of his paper to give France a lecture on neighborliness. While he «didn’t exactly sing a hymn of hate, he did point out quite significantly that, even though France hag been sinned against, she might stupidly stir up new trouble for herself if she did not take a new tack. . The occasion for most of his re- marks was the alleged quotation of the French socialist Albert Thomas, who recommended the ‘‘peaceful penetration of the left Rhine bank;” as well as the recent allied demand for alteration of the German consti- tution as respects Austrian represen- tation in the Reichsrat. Most of his remarks were directed squarely at France. ‘“‘Previously, France and the other entente powers,” he wrote, “through all their measures, conditions and de- cisions have, like the German Inde- pendents, strengthened’ nationalism and the counter revolutionary and militarist reaction in Germany.” The French deputies, he com- plained, had gone on the theory that the treaty was too mild and that it did not offer sufficient security for France. “We have always said,” Wolff con- tinued, “that a great folk cannot al- ways be laid in chains. Since one cannot. exterminate such a people (the Germans) nor drown tnem in the sea, it is always the part of wis- dom to prepare for their living as mneighbors and together. “But Clemenceau and Tardieu, as " -well as most of the deputies, will not 4‘; ! B —————npe go this path. The single idea of these parliamentary critics of the treaty is that the entente has done -wrongly in allowing Germany to exist. ‘Wolft insisted, too, that there was more “Prussianism’ and more of a “‘yoke’’ about the authorities in Paris ‘than in all Prussia. His article was written on a vacation in the moun. tains, and from nature he drew a simile which, translated between the lines, meant that France would do well to proceed carefully, lest she stir up a nation and weld it anew against' her. What he claimed were French- inspired attempts to separate some of the Rhineand regions from France, ky he pointed t, were havi - o out, were having an ad. o, verse effect. ! “Here in the mountains,” he con- «cluded, ‘“one sees the little rivulets which despite all hindrances force their way through and reaé¢h the free valley below, because for powers which constantly renew themselves there is always an exit. That is a spectacle which is not surprising but rather comforting and instructive.” And, from grite another source— the conservative Deutsche Tageszei- SATURDAY EVENING; OCTOBER 11, 1919 tung, an organ of the *right’ side— comes ' the thought that Germany some day wants to use her army as an “influence on the outer policy” of the nation. While the writer caretully avoided all appearance of trying to suggest dodging the peace treaty terms—and in fact wrote to the con- trary—nhis editorial gives the impres- sion that silence as to the army is necessary lest the entente watch too closely what is going on. The writer says that many people want to see the army so built up that virtually all of its personnel can serve later as officers or instructors. But such public discussion says the Tageszei- tung only hinders the building of the new army because it makes the en- tente more attentive as to what is go- ing on. : Exposure. The world's war veterans were hav- ing their reunion down on the corner— the reunion that they have every eve- ning after supper. One lad was telling his experiences and concluded by saying: “I don’t see how we ever lived through it. It's a wonder we didn’t die from exposure.” “We had a pretty tough war of it over here in the camp,” remarked a 1ad who ‘had never been overseas. Then another veteran of the battle of Camp Taylor smiled and added: “Yes, just look at Lieutenant (Hard Botled) Smith. He is almost dead from the exposure he is getting over here.” TRAINED PEOPLE GET POSITIONS The demand for young peo- ple trained for responsible positions by the Dakota Busi- ness College, Fargo, N.
