Frau Luxemburg Made Speech
Against the Handling of Sol
diers By Officers. Prosecuted
Berlin. War Minister von Kalkenhayn,
wh one tactless speech in ttie Reichstag’ on
th*- occasion of the Zabern In’erpellatlon
undoubtedly contributed greatly to the
strength of the foti of eeneure against
th< government is generally considered
to have m«de another exhibition of bad
political strategy by causing an action to
be brought, against Rosa Luxemburg for
insulting the German aimy. Even the
loyuliM press is criticising him severe
ly and the unexpected adjournment of
flic process for an Indefinite time,
against the strong protests of the de
jet B*-. a papers, whe ntaken in connec
tion with certain other aspects of the
mm', to indicate that the war minister
hiD realised he has exposed the most
vulnerable point of the institution which
lie had intended to protect.
Krau Luxemburg, who is one of the
b ,ders of the extreme radical wing of
the Socialist party, said recently in a
speech in Freiburg against the ro'.s
--t andllrg of soldiers by officers and non
cornmissioned officers:
"Imy in. day out, there are enacted in
the Gcrmiin barracks dramas of which
only a small part becomes known to the
public.'
A Slander.
General von Kalkenhayn saw In Ibis
statement a slander of the army, and he
promptly made information to the state
attorney, with the result that n prosecu
tion was begun. Vorwaerts, the central
Socialist organ, thereupon published an
appeal to Its readers for witnesses to
arts of brutality against private sol
illers. The success of this appeal was
e vident on the first day of the trial,
when attorneys for the defense submlt
t•-,( a list of 020 wen who were willing to
i estify to maltreatment of themselves
other soldiers In their presence Gen
! . ral von Kalkenhayn protested that this
testimony was Irish vant, except In so
far is It covered cases having a fatal
outcome, either through mishandling or
through suicide to escape further mal
treatment the latter a thing that re
pcittedlv occurred. Anything else, said
the war minister, could not he consid
ered a "drama."
Against this construction the defense
protested, and the court, without defi
nitely deciding the point, prepared to
continue the process. The prosecution
then demanded a list of the defense a
witnesses with specifications of the acts
t-, which they were prepared to testify.
The defense submitted such a list, and
an adjournment for three days wan
granted to enable the state's attorneys
to investigate the cases, When court re
convened. the prosecution, at the in
stance of the war minister, demanded
an Indefinite adjournment. A letter from i
General von Kalkenhayn was submitted. !
in which he declared that the defense's j
lint had been submitted to the military I
courts for action in the cases specified,
lb- was unwilling to proceed with the
Luxemburg c+jhc until courts-martial
should have determined the truth or
falsity of the allegations upon which the
defense Itfises its case.
Objected.
Attorneys for Frau Luxemburg oh.
jecterl to an adjournment. Since the
last session their witness list had In
creased to 1.012. and the Indications
were that It would continue to grow. To
wait the action of courts-martial in all
these cases meant an Indefinite dolay.
Moreover one of the chief Issues in ths
«an* was the leniency with which mili
tary courts hand ! ed brutal officers, and
they objected to having the present case
made dependent on the outcome of proe
ecutlons to which the defendant was
not a party and in which the defense
had no confidence. The court rebuked
this statement as “unpermissible criti
cism of the war minister," and granted
teh adjournment asked for.
However the case may finally termi
nate assuming that It is ever really
brought to trial—lt cannot help direct
ing attention to the undeniably great
number of excesses against private sol
diers on the part of their superiors, and
this number, although it has been some
what reduced In the last few years, is
still shamefully high. The press, In ob
jecting to General von Falkenhayn's
proposed washing of dirty linen before
an International public, cites a case of
alleged misuse of a soldier, ending in his
death, which has Just transpired us the
result of on anonymous letter to the par
ents of the dead soldier. A musketeer
of a Dantslc infantry regiment, who
died two weeks ago, is now declared to
h-av© been fatally Injured by his serg
eant-major during barrack- drill. An
investigation is under way and tn©
sergeant-major and captain of the com
pany have been suspended.
