Author does Stirring Revelations of German's Far-Reaching Espionage System. WIUTTICN UY MISS OI.GA VO.V j B1ARX. I KDITIU) IIY IIKMII 1IK ^AL SALLB. (Copyright, 1917, by Henri do Hal- ? salle, by tha International Newe Bureau, Inc.) I could give particulars of many j other women spies of Germany; tor instance, o* Biza Flanders, another fa- ? vorite of the crown prince; of Von j Wamberg, the woman who strangled | a spy who was disguised as a German j priest, in Luxemburg; of Hetta Lleb knecht, who watched babies butchered by the German troops in Belprium. and | laughed at the spectacle; of 1311a BUng- J berg, who assisted the German soldiery j to set fire to houses?but my brain ; reels when 1 think of what I myself i witnessed in and around I.uttich j <Biege), Namur and Bouvain. Need I j say here that it was the horrors of j Belgium that speeded my departure I across the water to England. You in England have had report3?of "German 1 atro'-itlun" in Belgium, France and j other countries. Some of those reports j 1 have read; and 1 solemnly declare j that they read like a child's nursery j tale compared with what actually did : happen. Pen, pencil and paintbrush are totally inadequate to give the slightest idea of German butchery. Kven now 1 look back upon my own humble and small experiences as a dreadful nightmare?as I did then. I could not believe that, the horrors enacted by Europeans before my very eyes were actual fact. A madman could not conjure up within his brain such unspeakable acts. But, never theless. it is true enough. It am not of a vindictive nature; 1 have always loved fair play, like any Knglishmnn or woman; but I say most emphatically that Germany should be . shown no mercy. Do unto her as she 1 does unto you, drawing the line only j at women and children. She will lose this war. and then the world will be full of German whining for decades to j come. You will have the usual German i hypocrisy; the powers were jealous of j her. and forced her into war. She j only wished for r-eace, and that im mortal and immoral "place in the sun." < See to it, humanity! Dangerous wild i beasts must be killed or put in cages. It is one of the two with Germany. If there is leniency sho-'n: if Deutsch land is not beaten to her knees, and' kept upon her kners. then this IVu tonic madness (it is nothing else) will happen again. Now Is the time for tho civilizations of the world, all of them! Jyill, or crlple the monster for evor! When I think of the hldeousness of German war methods, I feel ashamed that I should have chronicled some of my experiences as a spy in the pay of Germany, but on reflection I think in a humble way I may have added a little to the general stock of common knowledge of things German. At a later date I may have further experi ences to relate, experiences which at the moment my pen refuses to describe. You cannot know too much about the country you arc fighting; the pity is that previous to the war the real Ger man was so little known In all the al lied nations. Gorman history has never been a special study outside Germany: but it Is writ In unmistak able lettering. Tho Germans are bar barians, barbarians in the h?fcrt of civilized Europe. See to it, then, ye powers, that they are now and ever more fenced In by a ring of steel. Then, and then only, will there be peace on earth and good will among men. The End. Appeal I'lea Rejected.
