It was the Ebert Government with
which the Allies concluded the arm-
istice. They have therefore properly
refused to deal With any other Govern-
ment in, Germany. They have dis-
banded.the soviets wherever they have
found them, ancl they are not aware
that the native population has felt
much insured ; hereby. Before the
Allies came into fell control various
hasty laws' were passed by various

HOW THE ALLIES GOVERN
:-
OCCUPIED- GERMANY
•
To distuelt existing conditions :as
little as posiible when compatible with
the best interest of the general pub-
lic is the principle which guides the
Allies in governing- the portions of
German territory occupied by their
troops under the terms of the arm-
istice. The known. admiration of the
Germane for intelligence in the adote
tion of rules - and consistency in the
• application of them has made the Al-
lies proceed very carefully. It would
not do, they think, ta issue an erdin-
ance in haste and then be obliged to
ignore or change its application, for
that would mean to lose face before
the peaple they are gmeerning, SO -
potent is the German reputation for
the love of logic and efficiency.
Whether the territory occupied is
held by French, British, Belgian,. or
American troops, the administration
af it is essentially an inter -Allied
matter. Local commanders are allow-,
ed a good deal of discretion, but all.
general principles are determined by
reference to an inter -Allied military
commission or to Marshal Foch, as
the head of the militaryy forces of
the Allies. Hence there is a great
similarity in the way different secs
tries of occupied Germany are admin-
isteredewhether.they are actual y held
by Fench, British, Belgians, or Amer-
icans. This i unity of control s just.
as valuable in the administration of
quasi -conquered territory as it was
valuable in the actual preseeuiiion of
*battles. For instance, the intention is
-to make the administration af this ter-
ritory as humane as possible. The
Belgians wanted to. apply to the Ger-
mans the same harsh regulations
ti Well the Germane had used ou them,
but the inter -Allied directorate wisely
blocked* Belgium's natural desire to
have "an eye for an eye."
This whole work of occupation goes
through three phases; fiirst, military
accupation; second;, the seizure of the
means of administration; and, third,
eeonomic treatinent of the occupied,
Yegione.
The military occupation is essen-
tially pollee workl. By whatsoever
troops, it is performed in, pursuance
Of rules laid down by Marshal Foch.
it has followed the same military zones
into which the Germane divided the
territory now occupied by the Allies.
If Marshal- Foch gave the word, the
Allied army could Advance instantly
fleep into Germany,.
Marshal Foch'a police rules are
strict but not hersh. They are aimed
1.o peotect the people of the occupied
eones, and they are softened wear -
where as soon as the conduct of the
natives justifies such relaxation. For
instance, one of the first general rules
in all the occupied zones was that the
Inhabitants must remain indoors from
iight o'clock in the evening until six
'clock in the morning, but local corn.:
menders were given authority to re -
ax it as they saw fit. When I as in
Coblenz, the Americans had aIeaiy
allowed the 'people an extra:hour on
the streets in the evening, and at
Kaiserslauten. the French had poet-
poned curfew Until half -past ten. The
"German gendarmerie is purely local
in all the •occepied zones, and much
use has been made of it. Wherever
there were German army officers in
positions of responsibility in the
gendarmerie, they were removed, the
Allied policy being generally to trust
•lecal functionaries and to leave them
in office whenever, they can be used,
but to digniiss all officials who were
appointed by Berlin. -
At first -all use of telephones was
forbidden to the inhabitants of oc-
cupied totem, but this rule has been
relaxed also. In the French zone the
natives are allowed telephone calls
within their own city; while in
Coblenz the- Americans allow this and
also permit the 'use of five trunk lines
from the oteupied territory into Ger-
many proper. Thus a German in
*Coblenz may talk directly to a' Ger-
man in Berlin. Except in cases of
extrerae persoeal necessity, all sueh
calls axe supposed to be confined 'to
the transaction of important business,
and of course American army censors
"listen. in " on every call. This priv-
ileg-e was given to the Germans of
Coblenz bece.use it was found that the
sudden and gomplete interruption of
contact between the two banks of the
Rhine caused a great deal of inconve-
nience and suffering. _
The control of mails, like the control
of telephones, has been relaxed some-
what already where it seemed safe to
do so, and a restricted amount of
businees ace -respondence is permitted
between- the left and right banks of
the Rhine. But there has been no
softening of the regulations in regard
to the ,press and public meetings. A
strict censorship against anti -Ally or
pro -Bolshevist articles in the prese is
maintained, and no public meetings of
any kind are tolerated witheuti the
perrnission of the local commandant,
the sole exception being in the case of
the German churches, which are allow-
ed to hold services as usual. As a
matter of fact through the 'churches
the Gerreans might carry on not a
little propaganda, because the Allies
are not so attentive to the utterances
a Preachers as they might be. But
it is doubtful if they are hinting them-
selves much by this laxity, Indeed, a
policy of broad toleration toward the
German churches is probably wise.
One of the elements most litter a-
gainst the French in particular, has
been the German Catholic clergy, who
have distrusted the French :because of
the fameofFrench liberaliem in re-
ligious 'matters and the separation of
Church and State in France. In fact,
many German Catholic clergymen ap-
parently have thought that all: French
Men were pagans; and already their
