From Treating Huns Harshly
LONDON TIMES CABLE TO THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN.
By HERBERT BAILEY. ‘
COBLENZ, Dec. 11.--The Ameri
ean troops at Coblenz have met a
reception somewhat more cordial than
at Treves, although for some days
previous the evident desire of the
Americans not to antagonize the civil
‘an population had a marked eff‘ect.
‘Tn Treves the Americans studiously
refrained from measures which might
appear to have been inspired by a
desire to treat the Germans in the
zone of occupation asg the Germans
treated the French and the Belgian
civilian population in the four years
in which they had occupied invaded
territory.
No regulations so far have been
promulgated calling the inhabitants
to remain indoors at night, and there
18 absolutely no interference with the
daily life of the people. Indeed Ger
man soldiers in uniform still appear
on the streets and are not even oblig=
ed to salute American officers. |
The attitude of the American army
of occupation is calculated to impress
the inhabitants taht the people of the
I'nited States have no animosity
against the German people. On the
other hand the German ponglation:
shows that it looks to America as its
best friend and relies on the United;
States to obtain the most favorable
peace termg. As a natural result thefal
s an atmosphere of mutual consid
eration here, l

cient manner in which the enemy with
drawal was being conducted. The!
condition of the horses is said te be
particularly good and all lorries and
motor transport vehicles are deco
rated with green leaves and holly.
Here, as in Treves, the homegoing |
Germans received a great welcome!
from the ecivil population. All Ger
mans assert the army returned un
beaten, Certainly the attitude of the
inhabitants of Coblenz is not that of
a beaten people. n the evening the
cases are crowded with well-dressedl
men and women and there is musici
and animation ‘in all the Dbrightly|
lighted resorts. '
The food conditions in Coblenz ap- '
pear to be similar as in Treves. The/
poorer people are strictly rfl.tinnf-d,i
but what they can get is sold cheap,!
at prices fixed by the Burgomaster, i
All surplus food is in the hands of |
speculators and can be bought b_\"

Miss Mary 1. McDearmon, able worker of the law enforces
ment division of the War Camp Community Serviece, who is in
Atlanta with a helping hand for young women whose wayv has not
been easy.
Misst Mary 1. McDearmon has an
imposing title, She is fixed post
worker of the law enforcement divi
sion of the Atlanta office, War Camp
Community Service, To make it short
and proper, though, she is the Big
Sister of girls and young women who
hgve found the “lure of the uniform"
irresistible and tragic, of girls who
have been hounded by poor wages,
short hours, and ignorance to seek
a little brightness in life.
Her work, the most constructive
welfare work imaginable, will not be
withdrawn, now that the war is over,
The substance of it is this: Rehabil
ftation of life, applied to persons who
have fallen below the levels of re
spectability, and have become bur
dens and sources of danger in the
communities they live,
Not until the war and the estab-
Nshment of soldiers «n the canton
ments did the vast importance of this
work become known, and the general
public can have no means of know
ing the true conditions, the dangep
that surrounds them from this source.
Helps Build Morale.
Realizing that the morale of the
army depended upon cleanliness, the
Government closed up all restricted
districts, and issued stringent orders
against the operation of questionable
establishments within three miles of
a camp. And as a further, and per
haps more effective measure, the law
enforeement division of the War
Camp Community Service was organ
ized, and thirty fixed post workers
stationed at varlous camps through
the country,
With the growth of the problem
and the demand for more workers,
the number of fixed post officers was
increased to 270, and the scope of
the department’s work widened,
Miss McDearmon, formerl on
Camp Funston, at Manhattan, K}um..
and Camp Fremont, at Palo Alto,
Cal, has been in charge of rehablli.
tation work at Camp Gordon, and
has obtained wonderful results
through her tireless and faithful
work.
When the department was organ
ized it was for the simple purpose of
taking care of girls who visited “the
camps, but sgince that time it has
been greatly exXtended, and-now has
T ATLANTA. GA. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1918
been extended to the hospitals and
prison camps.
Women who have been placed in
the institutions as a result of of
fenses are reached by Miss McDear
‘mon, who holds out to them hopes
}for a brighter future, and helps them
to find employment, or to return to
?then* homes. -
: Situation Here Not Bad.
“The situation in Georgia is not
bad,” sald Miss McDearmon, “and Y
have found the giris of the South
easier to deal with than in any place
‘1 have been. In practically every
case they come from good families,
and usually are more ihan willing to
return to their homes, if they can, or
ito work for a Hvi:y. They are very
’eaull,\' influenced td try to do better,
“Vice cgmditions, ‘in all instances
practically are attributable to one
cause, and that is, ignorance. There
are, iowever, two other reasons that
have resulted in the downfull o 1
‘many good girls, poor pay and long
hours and lack of sufficlent norma
amusements,
. "The two latter conditions are
problems that the community must
fight.
“And everything must be done to
give the girls a chance after their
trouble. What does the publication
of their names when their trouble is
aired in court, matter to the public?
And how greatly does it injure them,
placing o brand of crime upon them
when thelr only offenses have been
thoughtlessness and lack of knowl
edge, lack of help? Most of the At.
lanta papers, I am glad to see, are
not offenders in this way, Atlanta
papers, like Atlanta people generally,
are glad to help. <
P “Atlanta needs a good detention
‘home, whefi the migls can be given
protection, and classified, and there
should be white and colored matrons
in the stockade, and a matron at
Grady Hospital. The only nurse in
charge of the girls is one employed
by the United States Public Health
Service.”
Misns MeDearmon is assured that the
rehabilitation work among the wom
en and the soldiers in the camps
will not be slacked with peace con.
ditions, but will 3‘@ earvied on with
renewed vigor el o
