Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Belgium and Germany: d104s and Documents We shall next see in what manner Belgium met the threats and actual violation of her rights by the strongest of the Powers which guaranteed the inviolability of those rights, and what were the true and wise precepts which Belgium recommended her unarmed population to follow. Finally, by the contemplation of a long succession of appalling occurrences, we shall know by what systematic cruelty, injustice and violation of the laws of war and of humanity itself, the aggressor has placed a prosperous country, which he coveted, under his yoke. The texts which have been reproduced speak for themselves, and may be verified in the historical and juridical works from which they have been collected, or in the newspapers of neutral or hostile countries which have called our attention to them. The unpublished statements are necessarily incomplete, having been collected on the battlefield or furnished by martyrs fainting from exhaustion.

Download or read book The German Army in Belgium the White Book of May 1915 written by Germany; Auswärtiges Amt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The German Army in Belgium, the White Book of May 1915 The Allied case against Germany with respect to the conduct of the Kaisers troops in Belgium rests mainly on four publications, (i) The Report of the Belgian Commission of Inquiry.(2) The Belgian Rapports sur la Violation du Droit des Gens en Belgique.(3) The Belgian Reply to the German White Book.(4) The Bryce Report. It was the last of these which mainly influenced British and American opinion. This famous compilation owed much to the reputation of the eminent scholar who presided over the Enquiry, and to the names of Messrs. Fisher, Harold Cox and others who were members of the Commission. Nevertheless, it must be admitted that our experience during the storm and stress of the war does not indicate that our literary and intellectual leaders have as a class shown either greater fidelity to principle or less susceptibility to the evil influences of war-fever, than the ordinary man in the street; and now that the more salient symptoms of this fever are abating and prejudice is slowly being replaced by reasoned judgment, the Bryce report can no longer retain unchallenged its claim to present a critical and convincing record of unquestioned facts. The numerous statements which it embodies were mainly derived from Belgian refugees who had reached our shores. Very many of these men and women were naturally in a state of nervous excitement and full of bitter indignation against the invaders of their soil. Such mental conditions are never conducive to the presentation of accurate and veridical evidence. Further it is obvious that some of these refugees were not eye-witnesses of the outrages they describe, for they had fled from their homes and merely record their own inferences as to events which had occurred during their absence. Another serious weakness in the Report arises from the fact that the various barristers and others who were sent round to interview these refugees were with very few exceptions quite unable to converse fluently in French and wholly ignorant of Flemish. Finally, none of the evidence was taken on oath. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Destruction of Belgium: Germany's Confession and Avoidance In essentials their stories never vary. Every massacre of inhabitants, every organised shooting of "hostages," every wiping out of groups of people or individuals, every shelling, burning and destruction of entire towns and villages, or of single houses, always had its origin in the misdeeds of "Franc tireurs." It must have occurred to most people that members of the German Army in the circumstances of its invasion of Belgium would from time to time be attacked by unrestrained individual civilians. That, however, is not at all the case which the Germans set out to prove. They understand that isolated acts of that character do not warrant the infliction of collective and often vicarious punishment. They affirm that great masses of the civilian population of Belgium engaged in a "people's war" with them, and that this was done generally throughout the country, not merely with the connivance, but with the assistance of the Belgian Government and military authorities, and that only such repressive measures were taken by them as were legitimate, essential, and justified by the occasion. Before proceeding to examine the materials upon which this allegation is based, it is desirable to consider what is the charge made by the Belgians against the German Army, because the White Book is professedly an answer to the Belgian Report, and has no other object than to refute and overcome the "mendacious libels against the German Army," which are said to be contained in that document. The Commissioners appointed by the Belgian Government issued a series of Reports between August 28th, 1914, and January 20th, 1915. These reports, together with a most admirable and spirited preface by M. van Den Heuvel, a Belgian Minister of State; some extracts from the pastoral letter of Cardinal Mercier bearing on the subject of the German conduct in Belgium, and an appendix containing the advice given to civilians by M. Berryer, the Belgian Minister of the Interior, warning them that they must abstain from hostile action towards the Germans, formed the documents to which the German White Book purports to reply. The charges brought by the Belgian Commissioners against German officers and soldiers are pointed, precise, and definite. The reports give names, places, dates, and in many instances the number of people killed and of houses destroyed.

Download or read book Unemployment in Belgium written by Fernand Passelecq and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unemployment in Belgium: During the German Occupation and Its General Causes On October 3, 1916, a decree by the German Great Headquarters instituted, in the occupied part of Belgium a regime of forced labour, with deportation, for all unemployed persons living at another person's expense. As a matter of fact, it was a general measure made with a military purpose and applicable indiscriminately to the whole able-bodied population of the occupied territory. So far, the male population only have been affected by the measure. Deportations began about half-way through October, 1916, and are still being carried out at the time of writing. They are executed with great severity and in a manner which betrays a perfectly worked out administrative preparation. The German Administration encountered the passive resistance and the protests of the Belgian burgomasters and aldermen, but took no notice of them. It disregarded also the very strong representations made to it by leading men belonging to or living in the country, notably representatives of politics, science, business and industry, of the Court of Appeal and the other judicial bodies of Belgium, and, finally, those of the Belgian Episcopacy made through the mouth of Cardinal Mercier. The deported persons are not "out-of-works" in all cases; they include workmen snatched from their regular occupations, persons belonging to the lower middle class, men with independent businesses, members of the liberal professions, and people who were rich or in easy circumstances.
