FIVE YEARS' FIGHT
LEFT IN GERMAN?
So Says Official Report to
Secretary Lansing.
PEOPLE BACK THE KAISER
All Germans Confident of Ultimate Vic
tory—Food Supply Said to Bo Suffi
cient—Americans Who Will Remain
In Empiro Number 1,500—Special
Care Given Children.
The state depart meat lias just receiv-1
ed the first official report of conditions j
in Germany that has reached this gov
ernment since relations were broken be
tween Washington nnd Berlin, says a
Washington correspondent of the New
Tork World.
The report states that the people are
confident of continuing the war until
the Teuton armies win, and everything
indicates that lighting may be contin
ued for at least five more years with
out breaking the kaiser's organization.
Reports circulated throughout the
world that the people of Germany are
willing to make peace at almost any
cost are declared by the statement to
be absurd. The people arc absolutely
behind the government. They believe
that the German armies are victorious
on every field and that they eventually
will crush all their enemies.
There is no foundation for reports
that the people of Germany are suf
fering great privations because of tlie
shortage of fowl. 1 >elicucies are not in
dulged in, but every subject of the kai
ser is getting three meals daily.
The country is being managed under
the most remarkable organization ever
known in the history of the world.
Care For Children.
As an example (he treatment of chil
dren and babies is cited in the report.
Every baby in the empire gets enough
milk—and 110 more—to supply its
needs. Government inspectors and
physicians keep a tab on the condition
of every infant in the empire.
The report shows that there arc ap
proximately 2.000 Americans in Ger
many. Of this number l.fitiO have lived
in Germany for so many years that
they are more German than American.
They have gone into business with Ger
mans and have intermarried with Ger
man families. The ties that bind them
to Germany are stronger than the ties
that bind them to the United States,
and they will elect to remain where
they are.
The other 500 are visitors, travelers,
representatives of American lirtns and
persons who went to Germany for
cures. They desire to return to the
United States. Most "f t!iei:i tire finan
cially capable of caring for themselves,
and on the advice of consuls they prob
ably will go to neutral countries.
The German government requires ail
aliens to present themselves to the con
stituted authorities ami remain under
observation for two weeks before they
are allowed to leave the country. Dur
ing this period a full investigation is
made of the individuals, the reasons
for their presence in Germany and the
reasons that prompt I hem to leave.
This system is operated for the obvious
purpose of guarding agaiust the depar
ture of spies.
