School of Musketry and Trench’
Warfare Also Features at
Camp Wheeler,
MACON, Nov. 27.—The seventh
week of the four months of intensive
training at Camp Wheeler finds the
men of the Thirty-first Division
rounding rapidly into shape for serv
ice abroad.
Schools of practically every descrip
tion, so far as modern warfare is
soncerned, are still in session
throughout the cantonment. The men
are taught everyvthing from firing a
trench mortar to shioeing a horse, I
A school of musketry was started
today. Bayonet schools have been in
progress for a short time. This de
partment teaches the Sammies how
to thrust a bayonet through the heart
of an enemy. Sacks of sand suspend
ed from a frame are used as dum
mies. Small red spots, painted on the
sacks, represent hearts,
Trench warfare is still the main
feature of the training. A war
strength forece of 1,000 men and 26
officers occupy the trenches every
week. This week the old Fifth Geor
gla Infantry are in the diggouts. They
are getting a real touch o} what they
may expect when they arrive in
France. Each of the regiments has
constructed its own trenches, since
reprcsentatives of the units were
graduated from the trench digging
school and sent back to teach others.
Grenade Courses.
‘Temporary grenade courses have
also been constructed by each of the
regiments. The men are taking daily
practice in handling grenades, a mode
of warfare so important in France
now. The men are developing skill
and accuracy and are fond of grenade
throwing.
The following British officers and
orderlies are asgisting in training the
Americans: Captain H. J. Cupper in
trench mortars; Lieutenant’ ¥, Bar

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 chapter entitled “The
l Opponent,” 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
during the war will be given,
This account shall serve the pur
. pose of fortifying the living feel
~ ing within us of our natural right
- and of our duty to use all weap
~ ons ruthlessly,
j “If we did not know before the
publication of the Entente note
- (the Aliles’ peace reply to Ger
~ many) what we were up against,
now we know. The mask fell.
- Now we have confirmation of the
| intentions to rob and conquer us
| which caused the individual En
~ tente nations to league together
~and conduct the war. The neu
trals will now see the situation
‘ more clearly. For us it is war,
literally, to be or not to be a
German nation. Never did sucn
an appeal (the Entente note)
~ find such a fruitful echo in Ger
man hearts. .
“I begin with England, our
worst enemvy.”
On page 31 Admiral Hollweg
speaks of the fact that at the
beginning of the war many Ger
mans, especially those in bank
ing and business circles, felt that
Germany was 8o indispensable_to
England in peace time that Eng
land{would not conduct'a_war to
“knock o out” Germany. But
Hollweg says the: situation has
- now changed.
On_pages 122 .to -126. he justi
fies ‘the ruthless submarine war
fare in the following way:
England’s “Ten Gross Violations.”
“It 18 known thatoEngland 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
i statements of authority until the
declaration was unrecognizahle
and” worthless—especially the
spirit and purpose of the agree
ment were flatly pushed aside un
til practically nothing more re
mains of the marine laws as codl
fied in 1909, The following col
lection of flagrant breaches of
international law will show who
first broke marine laws during
the war:
““Ten gross violations of marine
law in wartime by England:
“First. Violation of Article 1V
of the Maritime Declaration of

for the Tweni;-eighth Division waa |
begun yesterday when the 109th ln-‘
fantry took the range. Ground for
merly used by the local guardsmen
was taken over by the division and
enlarged.. The 109th, hiked’ out. .in
heavy marching order, and fired first
at _targets setoat 'a distance-of 100
yvards. |
The® other units will take up the
range firing quickly. The 110th, 111th
and 112th Infantry will follow the
106th within the next few days. The
range is under the direct supervision
of Colonel Ezra H. Ripple, former
commander of the old Thirteenth. He
will supervise assigning the men to
positions. ‘
Brigadier General Stillwell, acting
commander of the division, is a strong
believer in rifle practice for training
an army, and the initial work on the
range is viewed with gratification by
him. |
v - . ‘
The tenth week of training has been
completed and the eleventh was in
augurated yesterday.
The Fifty-third Artillery Brigade is
deployed today on the artillery range
located several miles west of the
camp. The brigade left the reserva
tion yesterday under the leadership of
Brigadier General William @G. Price,
Jr. The general is contemplating
moving his headquarters to the range,
and from now on it is probable that
the major portion of the brigade will
encamp there. With part of the bri
‘gado on the range, training by the
other units lags, as the men all wish
to hear the big guns boom. Regi
ments have been engaged in range
practice for several weeks, but this is
the first occasion on which the en
tire brigade has been assembled there.

Camp Hancock soldiers in the fu
ture may stage boxing bouts, football
matches, baseball games and other
sport activities among themselves in

‘ This was made known yesterday in an
‘order issued from division headquar

effect, a soccer game between British
Tommies and one of the infantry reg
iments which was to have heen staged
‘in the city has bcan canceled, and also
‘a football game scheduled for Thanks

‘respite is a boxing match arranged for

On-page~l34, after discussing
the question-of whether the Eng
lish- blockade has been -effective
and arguing that. England by
gelxing neutral ships with food on
the supposition that the food was
going to Germany, has violated
the principles of the freedom of
the seas, he says:
“We may conclude from these
acts that we Germans can now
consider ourselves freed from the
uncomfortable conditions of the
London declaration and may con
duct the war as our own interests
prescribe. We have already par
tially done this inasmuch as we
follow the English example of ex
tending the lists of war contra

for the neutrals affected and they
have protested against it. We
may, however, consider that they
will henceforth respect our pro
posals just as they have in the
past accepted English interests.
England demanded from them
that they assist her because Eng

of neutrais and of justice. We
will take this principle also as

1 soon found out that I was not cured

ollweg’'s next justification of
the unlimited submarine warfare
{s that Secretary of State Lans
ing in a note to Count von Bern
storff at first said merchant ships
could not be armed and then
changed his mind.
On page 160 Hollweg says:
“And now in discussing the ques
tion of the legal position of the
submarine as a warship, 1 cite
here the statements of the Ger
man authority on international
law, Professor Doctor Niemeyer,
who said: 'There can be abso
lutely no question but that the
submarine is permitted. It is a
means of war similar to every
other one. The frightfulness of
the weapon was never a ground
of condemnation. This is a war
in which everything is permit
ted which is not forbidden.””
On page 175 in the chapter
entitled “The Submarine War and
Victory'” the author says:
“Every great deed carries with
it a certain amount of risk.
After the refusdl of our peace
proposal we have only the choice
of victory with the use of all of
our strength and power, or the
submission to the destructive
conditions of our opponents.”
“Germany Will Break the
Erntente.”
17~ adds that his statements
shall prove to the reader that
Germany can continue the hard,
relentless battle with the great
est, possibility and confidence of a
final victory which will break the
destructive tendencies of the En
tente and guarantee a peace
which Germany needs 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; they are for ex
ample considerably higher in
England ~than in Germany. A
world-wide crop failure 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 industrial workers are
under arms, the others are work
ing in making war munitions for
her own use, not, however, fqr
the export of valuable wares.”
Admiral Hollweg has a clever
theory that the German tleet 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 Allies’
control of the high seas. On
page 197 he says:
“What I mean in extreme by

between Germany and Turkey
was not established a strong
English naval unit would have
brought the attack success. The
necessity of not withdrawing the
English battleships from the
North Sea prevented England
from using a more powerful unit
at Constantinople., To this ex
tent the German battle fleet was
not without influence in the vic
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 Allies by the. tongue draws
from her industry, and thereby
Ler commerce, 3,500,000 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
compelled 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.'”

Campaign May Be Late Startmg‘
in Georgia, Hugh Richard
son Says.
Hugh Richardson, appointed gen
€ral director of the national thrift
campaign for Georgia, was busy
Tuesday using the long distance tel
ephone in rounding up committee
members all over the State. He had
quite a probiem on his hands, for
lthe campaign needs workers and not
figureheads—and a large proportion
of the real workers are on the job in
one of the more of the various cam
paigns already under way.
Mr. Richardson, however, had cho
-Ben a number of Atlantans for the
local work and several chairman for
counties. He gexpected to announce
the complete list in a few days.
“The sale of stamps in the thrift
campaign will begin all over the
United States December 3,” Mr. Rich
ardson said Tuesday. “We may start
a little late in Georgia, for we were
delayed in the beginning.”
The thrift campaign is intended to
follow mp the Liberty bond sales by
giving opportunity for investments in
$5 interest-bearing bonds. Stamps
will be sold at 25 cents each, and a
sufficient numbér of these can be ex
changed for 85 certificates, It is
expected to reach even the children
in this way, and not only to swe!l the
war treasury but inculcate in young
Americans an idea of the acvantage
of saving.
