AMSTERDAM, Feb. 14 (by mall).—
Circulation in other belligerent coun
tries of the report that official recog
nition of polygamy had been given in
Germany, in order to fill up as quickly
as possible the tremendous gaps which
the war has made in the German
army, has aroused indignation in the
German empire. This report is said '
to have been mentioned in the British 1
house of commons by Arthur J. Bal
four, the British foreign minister, and
by Lord Robert Cecil, the British min
; ister of munitions.
| In the religious weekly paper, Die
Christliche Welt, Professor Martin
j Hade declared recently that polygamy
! is countenanced neither by the German
j government nor by the German peo
j pie. He contends that single pampli- |
j lets advocating a plurality of wives '
i such as. the one referred to by Lord
|
i Robert Cecil, are the work of “irre
! sponsible persons" and should not be
j taken seriously. Moreover, Rrofes- |
i sor Rade holds that history has shown
I that after all great wars, the losses
have been made good by normal mar
riages. j
There seem to be. however, a good I
many "irresponsible persons” in Ger
many who hold queer ideas as to the
breeding of the future German. The
Berliner Tagoblatt devotes an article
| to them. It begins by saying that the
’pamphlet quoted in the house of corn
j mons had no sort of official sanction
j and that, on the contrary, it was quick
] ly suppressed. The Tageblatt, how
j ever, mentions the activities of the
j “Eden and Mittagsbund" movement
and the "Hammar Community,” whose
• ideas for Increasing the birthrate and j
i to breed the “Germanic superman” are!
regarded as distinctly peculiar.
; Then there is the “German Society
i for Regeneration” and the “Order of j
the Templars” which want to main- j
! tain the balance -of births as against;
j thy fertility of the Semitic races. Fin
[ ally, a society named “Ariana” frankly
■advocates free love. None of these
j sects, the Tageblatt asserts, is of any
importance. The paper further ar
gues that the societies only work on
the theories ol Darwin and Dobineau
i —both of them non-Germans—who ad
. vocate selective breeding of a super
. j ior grade of human beings.

! BELIEVE THAI MORMONS |
r CORRUPT HUN SOLDIERS
AMSTERDAM. Feb. 14 (by mail).—
j A notion that Mormon missionaries
| from America have been corrupting
the German soldier and seeking to
tempt him to desertion is propagated
“ '»y *he Lutheran church consistory ror
, 1 11*8 province of Pomerania, which ac
cording to the Kreuz Zeitung has sent
the following circular letter to the lo
cal district clergy:
‘‘We are given to understand by the
authorities that various antiwar sects
have arisen in eastern Prussia which
make it their business to induce sol
j diers to desert and which furnish such
: deserters with oportunities to hide
j from the law. One of these sects calls
| itself variously the “New Adventists”.
I or “War Adventists.” They believe
j that Holy Writ commands them to as
| slat those who object to military serv
■ ice.
“Mormons also have wrought sim
i ilar evil, so that an American anti-war
j propaganda would seem to be at work,
j We urgently ask our reverend breth
ren to keep diligent watch and ad
| vise us promptly of any signs pointing!
j to such baneful activities in their!.
j parishes.”
