WHAT A GERMAN RULE MEANS
TO A CONQUERED LAND.
As an example of the deliberate
crushing of Belgian competition, the
case of the most flourishing indus
tries of Belgium before the war, and
German glass manufacturers could
not compete with it in the export
trade. In the words of the head of
the German organization of glass
manufacturers, “It became vital to
the German manufacturers of glass
»rares that the Belgian manufactur
ers should be stopped from going to
neutral markets.” Accordingly the
German administration in Belgium
was appealed to, and it promulgated
“an order stopping importation, tran
sit, and exportation” of these goods.
Seizure of Belgian trade secrets was
another feature of this typically Ger
man plan.
The extent to which Belgium has
been denuded of its wealth, war ma
terials, machinery, means of trans
port and man power under this ini
quitous plan is almost unbelievable.
“All crude materigls indispensable
for Belgian industries,” reported
Brand Whitlock, our Minister to Bel
gium, as early as August 2, 1915,
“were requisitioned and sent to Ger
many—lleather, hides, copper, wool,
flax, etc. Further more, if not the
entire stock, at least the greatest
number possible of machinery parts
were shipped to Germany, to be used,
according to German statements, in
making munitions which Belgian fac
tories had refused to produce.” Bel
gian draft horses, the best in the
world, were seized and sent to Ger
many to be sold to German farmers.‘
A long list compiled from the German l
official ordinances is given of the ar
ticles ordered seized in Belgium. It
comprises some 300 separate items,
listed under such headings as min
erals and metals, chemicals, machin
ery, food, clothing, textiles, house
hold articles, old material, oils and
explosives, metal products for In
dustrial establishments, medical sup
plies, etc. The articles range from
tungsten steel to ground slag, from
electric condensers and conductors
to printers slugs and matrices, from
all grains for breadmaking to oat
straw, from bath tubs to stair-carpet
roads and doorknobs, from old rags
to the skins, horns, feet, bones and
carcasses of horses, calves, goats,rab
bits, and dogs. Nothing apparently
is overlooked or forgotten in this
ruthless robbery of the quivering
victim. It is German efficiency join
ed to German inscrupulousness and
disregard of all rights on the part of |
those not able to defend themselves. ’

DEAN REPLIES TO W. J. MARRIS’
WARNING AND INSTRUCTION
Contnued from First Page.*
_________________—-———-———-—————"—‘——
in his 1914 campaign for United
States senate, declared in nearly ev
ery speech he made in Georgia that
he was opposed to and would vote
against this very shipping bill on the
ground that he was opposed to feder
al ownership of transportation facili
ties, either by rail or water, and
therefore you knew when you were
advocating his election in Macon that
he was publicly pledged ‘to oppose
this bill.
Another thing you charge Hard
wick with is that he voted against and
openly fought the national prohibi
tion bill, and yet you knew in 1914
that he had always been an anti-pro
hibitionist and you also knew that
Clayt Robesen, head of the liquor
trust, was one of his campaign mana
gers, and you three, almost constant
ly in consultation during the three
days of the Macon convention, work
ing hand in hand to secure the nomin
ation of Hardwick as the loyal ad
ministration candidate.
Now, you come forward proclaim
ing yourself as the only loyal candi
date and the only one entitled to the
suffrage of the people of Georgia.
When, I ask you, can the people of
Georgia trust you? Can you claim
yourself to be any more loyal than
you claimed Hardwick to be'in 1914?
When you say that President Wil
'son was deceived in believing Hard
wick loyal, I say yes, ajd that you
‘should have told him better. ‘
When you say the people of Geor
gia made a mistake in electing Hard
wick, the reply is that you are largely
responsible for this mistake.
What about your advice to the
people of Georgia last summer by
public interviews and private letters
scattered over the entire state ad
vising your home people not to buy
coal when the price was only $3 per
ton, resulting, as you well know, in
causing the people of Georgia many
millions of dollars in the greatly in
creased price, besides a fearful a
mount of suffering and sickness, by
acting upon your advice?
Had you thought that if you live a
thousand yvears and make a hundred
dollars each day, that you could not
repay the people of Georgia the loss
caused them by that advice, And
did not the coal trust reap the profit
of these untold millions? And is the
coal trust and more entitled to profit
by your assistance than the shipping
trust was to profit by the assistance
of Senator Hardwick.
Another thing our people are an
xious to know, and that is, why as
chairman of the federal trade com
mission, drawing a salary of $lO,OOO
per year, without any expense, should
should resign and surrender your
$lO,OOO job for the purpose of en
tering an expensive race to the Unit
ed States senate against your former
side partner, Hardwick, which, if you
succeed, will only pay you $7,500
per year?
Now ,do not understand for one
moment that I am in any way de
fending Hardwick in any of his posi
tions. I consider him thoroughly un
worthy to represent Georgia in the
United States senate, but he was just
as unworthy four years ago when you
used your official position and influ~s
THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER
| ence to vouch for him and land him,
over our most vigorous protest.
If you were left alone as the sole
| apponent of Senator Hardwick, what
kind of a campaign could you launch
against him? When the little bantam
comes down to Georgia armed with
ghis helmet and spurs, whether “made
in Germany” or just using the old
! ones you supplied him with four years
| ago, and challenges you to an open
lshov.'-down, what are you going to
|do‘.’ No matter what charge you
' bring against him or how positive the
!proof may be, he can reply that you
| knew it long ago and raised no word
of protest until you desired his place.
/ I notice an interview from you in
the papers in which you state that
Iyou do not propose to make any
’sgeeches, but only propose to go a
round over the state, shaking hands
| with your friends and whizpering/
words of loyalty in their ears.
We are now engaged in a serious,
fearful war, and our sons and broth
lers are baring their bodies to the
' shafts of German steel, and the peo
ple of Georgia are in no mood for
“gum-shoe” politics. They demand
a man loyal to the core and with
brains, ability and backbone enough
to meet every emergency, refusing
to be swayed or influenced by Ger
man or corporate propaganda.
The people of Georgia are demand
ing a man loyal to their interests as
well as loyal to the administration.
]They have weighed you in the bal
ances and you have been found want
ing.
Your boasted following in Geor
gia is but a figment of your imigra
tion. You will not carry a dozen
counties in the state.
| Yours truly,
| H. H. DEAN.

There will also be a spring drive on this side |

of the year. March and Aprilisa time when l
resistance usually is at lowest ebb. It is
a trying season for the “‘rundown’” man or
woman. But medical science steps in, and
says it need not be. We should cultivate
a love of health, a sense of responsibility for
the care of our bodies. Do not allow the
machinery of the body to clog. Put the
stomach and liver in proper condition.
Take Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis
covery, to be had at most drug stores in
tablet form in 60-cent vials, composed of
native herbs. This puts the stomach and
liver in proper condition. You may be
plodding; along, no spring, no elasticity, no

into its normal physical condition—oiled
the machinery, as it were—you will find
new vim, vigor and vitality - -ithin you. A
