Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Slave Raids in Belgium: Facts About the Deportations Germany becomes daily more anxious about the result of the war. She sees herself called upon soon to meet a powerful offensive, and is now setting herself to increase her dwindling reserves by sending to the front all those who have been employed in her factories. She foresees that the first lines of her defence in the North of France will be broken, and is preparing a new line which follows approximately the Belgian frontier, from Lille through Aulnoye to Givet, formed of a system of trenches supported by a strategic railway. She perceives, in short, that her adversaries are about to distance her in the production of munitions, and she is feverishly working to augment the number of her workshops and factories. In order to fill the places of those workmen who are being sent to the front, to construct the new defences and to provide for the increased supply of hands which the additional factories require, the German authorities have adopted two devices. Against the first of these nothing can be said. It is a national movement, the organisation of the entire civil population. The second is utterly indefensible. It consists in the forcible employment of the civil population of those districts which Germany has invaded and now occupies, their deportation into slavery and the compulsory use of their labour against their own country.
