Military Critic Declares Uprising Can Be Success

11Y J. W. T. MASON. r.y rnit.vl rrei: Ni:V YOIIK. Jan. 2. The ad vanee of a Polish army on Herlin. is an act of civil war. It is an effort hy the population of Prussian Po land to wrest from the German government consent to separate from Germany and unite with Russian and Austrian Poland in a single? great commonwealth. For this purpose Prussian Poland can call for help from the Polish districts of Austria and Russia, and still conduct its warfare against the Germans as a civil strife. The advantage of doing so 1. very great. While the German people might rally to repel foreign invaders of their soil, there is a strong possünlity that they would show no enthusiasm in fiuhting a Polis'i army, which is seeking no mor

IUth i"hancdl.r Kbeit and War and Marine Minister Noske. who naturally will direct Germany's military policies, took th's attitude In diseasing the matter with the t"uiied Press today. Tlie two officials said the German delegation uould advocate international al'olition of military compulsory service, at the pe.u e tahle. providing all nations agietd to it.

Possibility not Uidloulous. The possibility of an army of 4 0,0 00 Poles proceeding toward lierlin is not as ridiculous as appears on its face. The disorganization of the German military machine has left the defences of the empire in a poor condition, while the demands of th allies for delivery of war materials under the armistice terms has seriously depleted Germany's stock of weapons. Put, more influential on the immediate course of events, than either of these facts, is the loss of lighting morale Germany has suffered. The most abhorred word in Germany now is war. The people, therefore, may decline to permit the government to engage in any operationr against the Poles which would mean extensive bloodshed. ofheered by specially trained men from civil life.

A torpedo to cripple the New Mexico, he said, would have to put her motor out of commission, or destroy all four propellers.

The Time does not overlook the fact that Omenreau called this league the "halance of power," h'.i it explains "the name is a smal! r-.ntter." "Realization of a world league of nation would eertalrly take time and this league of Rre.it democracies is comparatively easy of attainment. It would be the league of nations in embryo." Carrying out this idea, the Time? calls Wilson's content'n that the peace conference should be made a permanent secretariat or the 'eague "a wise idea which is likely to bear fr .:it at the ronfor-nm " two art: ASrilYMATITD I'.y t'rv rd Press : TOLT-'DO, O..
