‘WEDNESDAY, JULY 23, 1919.» # THRIFTY DUTCHMEN TURNED INTO ~ THIEVING DESPERADOES DOBSPERA Genuine Shock Has Come to Those Who in Old Days Admired Indus: ; trious Hollander Whose Only Occupation Now Is in | as Deeds of Daring and The Hague—To, those ‘who knew the Hollander before the war as. a quiet, well-behaved, thrifty and, indus. trious soul, content to pursué the even tenor of his way and sticking, religi- ously to orderliness. and, good behay- for, his transformation, since thé sign- ing of the armistice last November. will come as a genuine shock. y Crime, in the pre-war days, was at its minimum in Holland. Her stand- ing army of some. 50,000 was com- posed of young men who served their allotted time in the military service of their country wite the minimum of grumbling, returning cheerfully to the plow, or the dairy, oy the fisheries, a3 goon as their term of army service yas over. : i | Except for an ever watchful eye on her frontier, Holland lived a ca!m, contented existence, turning, out her | [world-famous cheeses and her per- haps, more infamous gins, her citizens }, secure in the feeling that theirs was lh land where the law was observed, (wher® their chattels. were safe even though their front doors remained un- |: locked and where the infrequent 6f- fender against the penal code could not hope to get his full name in the papers, much less his photograph with a pretty border around it. Today all this is changed. From, a + land of safety Holland has been trans- formed into a land of. danger and the Hollander—that is, he who is repre- sented in the ranks of the plow boy, the driver of the horse or donkey along the tow-path, the churner of the butter and the cream, the farm hand or the miller’s assistant—has been transformed into a shiftless, lazy, dis- orderly ne’er-do-well, whose principal occupation is burglary! i It Is a New Crime. Burglary in Holland was not a usual |: crime in the pre-war days. That fact makes the present wave of lawless- ness all the more striking. The great truth that has dawned upon the coun- try is that the 800,000: Hollanders who have been doing military service as non-combatants since the beginning of the war have come to hate work and tto hate having to provide for their own living, after enjoying food, cloth- ing and shelter at government expense for nearly five years. When Holland mobilized her young manhood, middle-aged manhood and full-grown manhood during the. first _six months of the war, when there avas momentary danger of Germany suddenly getting it into her disordered brain to invade and despoil the Neth- erlands as well as. Belgium, the Dutch government provided for the support of: the families of the soldiers whom she mobilized as wel! as for the sup- port of the soldiers. themselves. In, her well-ordered house, Holland could not see 800,000 families in want because 800,000 male supporters were jtaken for the defense of the father- Jand. She provided this support ‘as Now Paradise for Thieves. ‘ aes Robbery—Country Is While, of course, it would be unfair to say that every one of the demobii- ized soldiers has turned burglar after receiving his discharge from the army, it is sufe to say that one-half of the 800,000 troops’ has turned its’ atten- tion to either burglary, petty or grand larceny. or highway robbery as a means to keep the wolf from the door |. without an undue amount of physical exertion. The visitor in Holland, although he, is still much in the minority because of the Passport restrictions, | has Hieaxned to keep’ his hand on his’ wal- let pocket and his fingers firmly araund the end of a stout cane when- ever he ventures out into the street or along @ country path, once Hol- land’s delight and the safest prome- nade in the wide world. Daring’ Highway Robberies. The “kwajongems,” who used to stand in proper awe of the well- Iressedl man or Woman in the public ‘horoughfares of: the city, now openly and’ brazenly snatch at watch cha‘ns, ladjes’ bags’ or pocket books that are carried in the hands by the ladies. Nine times in ten the culprit manages to make a clean getaway in the crowd of sympathetic ruffians, who gather quickly at the first sign of disorder in. the. street. Children, sent ta the stores by their j, mothers are often the victims of the. thieves, who, take away their pennies, and market baskets on the way to the |! expectant housewives very often go astray and ultimately reach the dens of the underworld, now a real menace: tn the economic’ and civie life, of the Netherlands, The same spirit of disregard of the .canventions that obtains, throughout the, country, as far as the rights of | others Is- concerned, obtains in the na- ’s parliament—the Staaten Gen- eraal.

The long hikes along the towpaths were not nearly so attractive as the short stretches between sentry posts on the border between Holland’s eastern provinces and the Westphalian 9r ‘Prussian country. It was found @ hard matter to get the Hollander back fnto a civilian job, not because the job. ywas not there but because the erst- ‘while thrifty Dutchman no longet eared for the job. Food Shortage a Cause. For many months now life for the ‘law-abiding Dutchman and his. family, has been anything but a paradise and the shortage of food has been but'a small matter in the grand total of this \general unhappiness. ‘The principal thing that has been worrying Holland -has been the bur- glar, who has since before the Christ- mas holidays become a sort of nation- jal institution, like the cheese and the gin. Acts of violence are of daily, in fact, of hourly, occurrence in the country districts, as well as in the cities.
