THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN
GERMANY, THE NEXT REPUBLIC?
By Carl V/. Ackerman
Germany Presented Ten ‘Flagrant
Violations’ by England of Au
thorized Warfare Under Inter
national Law as Justification
for the Institution of Unre
stricted Submarine Attacks by
the Teuton Powers.
N THE cnapter entitled “The \
I Opponcent,” on page 27, the |
author says: ‘
“Before there is a discussion |
of our legal right to the subma
rine warfare a brief review of the
general policies of our opponents j
during the war will be given. i
This account shall s rve the pur- |
pose of fortifying the living feel- ‘
Ing within us of our natural right
and of our duty to use all weap- |
ons ruthicgsly,
“If we did not knaw before the
publication of the Entente note
(the Aliles' peace reply to Ger- |
many) what we were up aga nst, '
now we know. The mask fell. l
Now we have confirmation of the
intentions to rob and conquer us
which caused the individual En- :
tente nations to lrague together
and conduct the war. The neu- |
trals will now see the situation
more clearly. For us it is war, l
literally, to be or not to be a
German nation. Never did such
an appral (the Entente note)
find such a fruitful echo in Ger
man hearts,
“I begin * with England, our
worst enemv.”
On page 31 Admiral Hollweg
speaks of the fact that at the
b ginning of the war many Ger
mans, especially those in bank
ing and bus'necs circles feolt that
Germany was so indispensable to
England in peace time that Fng
lland would not conduct a war to
“knock out” Germany. But
Hollweg savs the situation has
now changed,
On pages 122 to 126 he justi
fies the yputhl~ss suhmarine war
fare in the following way:
England’s “Ten Gross Vieolations.”
“It is known that England and
her allies declared at the begin
ning of the war that they would
adhere to the Declaration of Lon
don. It is just as well known that
England and the Allies changed
this declaration through the or
ders in council and other lawless
statements of authoritv unt'l the
declaration was unrecognizable
and worthl-ss—especially the
spirit and purvose of the agree
ment were flatly pushed aside un
til practically nothing more re
ma'ns of the marine laws as codl
fled in 1909. The following col
lection of flagrant breaches of
international law will show who
first broke marine laws during
the war: . L

for the Twentiy-eighth Division was

was taken over by the division and
enlarged. The 109th hiked out in
heavy marching order, and fired first

yards.
The other units will take up the
range firing quickly. The 110th, 111th
and 112th Infantry will follow the
109th within the noxt few days. The
range 1s under the direct supervision
of Colonel Ezra H. Ripple, former
commander of the old Thirteenth. He

Brigadier General Stillwell, acting
commander of the division, is a strong
believer in rifle practice for training

founcdations for sea warfare and
that for the future the military
acts of belligerents against ncu
trals will not be carr'ed to the
extremes they have been for cen
turies because of Englands su
perior sea power. This new era
of civilized warfare we bring
under the term “freedom of the
seas.’”
Hollweg's next justification of
the unlimited submar'ne warfare
is that Secrctary of State Lans
ing in a note to Count von Bern
storff at first said merchant sh'ps
could not be armed and then
changed his mind.
On page .160 Hollweg =says:
“And now in discussing the aques
tion of the*tegal position of the
submarine as a warship, I cite
here the statements of the Ger
maff authority on international
law, Prcfessor Doctor N'emevyer,
who said: ‘There can be abso
lut"ly no question but that the
gsubmarine is permitted. It is a
means of war similar to every
other one. Th~ frightfulness of
the weapon was never a ground
of condemnation. This is a war
in vhich everything is permit
’ed which is not forb'dden.’"”
On page 176 in the chapter
entitled “The Submarine War and
Victory” the author says:
“Every grecat deed carries with
it a certain amount of risk,
After the refusal of our peace
proposal we have only the choice
of victory with the use of all of
our strergth and power, or the
submi~sion to the destructive
cond‘tions of our ovnnonents.”
“Germané Wi'l Break the
ntente.”
T~ nAde tha' his statements
shall prove to the recder that
G ...y can continue the hard,
rel 'ntless battle with the great
est possibility and confidence of a
final victory which will break the
destructive tend ncies of the En
tente and guarantee a peace
which G-rmany nceds for her
future existence.
On page 193 he declares: “All
food prices in England have in
creased on the average of 80 per
cent in price: th~y are for ex
ample considerably higher in
England than in Germany. A
world-wide crop fa‘lure in Canada
and Argentina made the importa
tion of food for England more
difficult.
“Engiand earns in this war as
opposed to other wars nothing.
Part of her indvstrial workers are
under arms, the others are work
ing in making war munitions for
her own use,:not, however, for
the exrort of valuahble wares.”
Admiral Hollweg has a clever
theory that the German rleet has
played a prominent role in the
war, although most of the time
it has been hugging the coasts
of the Fatherland. He declares
that the fleet has had a “dis
tance effect” upon the Alli's'
control of the high seas. On
page 197 he says:
“What 1 mean in extreme by
‘fernw'rkung' (distance effect) I
will show here by an example.
The English and French attack
on Constantinople failed. It can
at least be doubted whether at

between Gormany and Turkey
was not established a strong
English naval unit would have
brought the attack success. The
necessity of not withdrawing the
English battleshirs from the
North Sea prevented England
from using a more powerful unit
at Constantinople. To th's ex
tent the German battle fleet was
not without influ~nee in the vie
tory for the defender of Con
stantinople. That is ‘distance
effect.’””
On page 187 Hollweg declares:
“England not only does not make
money today by war but she is
losing. ‘The universal military
service which she was forced to
introduce in order to hold the
other Allics by the tongue draws
from her industry, and thereby
Ler commerce, 3,800,000 work
men. Coal exportation has de
creased. During the eleven
months from January to Novem
ber, 1916, 4 500,000 tons less coal
was exported' than in 1915, In
order to produce enough coal for
England herself the nation was
comprlled by the munitions obli
gation law to put miners to
work.”
On page 223 the author de
clares:
“That is, therefore, the great
and important role which the
submarines in this war are play
ing. They are serving also to
pave the way in the future for
the ‘freedom of the seas.'”
He adds that the submarines
will cut the thread which holds
the English Damocles’s sword
over weak sea powers and that
for eternity the “gruesome hands”
of English despotism will be
driven from the seas.
