ONE LAW FOR BELGIANS, ANOTHER FOR GERMANS.
CIVILIANS URGED TO TAKE UP ARMS. GUERILLA WARFARE IN EAST PRUSSIA. Amsterdam, November 16. Despite the severity of German punishment of armed civilians in Belgium, a German proclamation to the inhabitants of East Prussia declares that all methods of defence are permissible when the enemy crosses the frontier. It summons all to tako up arms, preferably while wearing civilian dress, in order to surprise the enemy better. - The proclamation further urges the whole population to take up arms and maintain a guerilla warfare against the Russians.
