HAVRE, Nov. 9.—Charges that the German government is sending to un known destinations practically all the able-bodied men in occupied Belgium are made by Baron Beyens, Beligian for eign minister, in a statement issued to day. Baron Beyens says: • ' "The German government is rounding up in large nurnoers in the towns and villages of occupied Belgium such as Alost, Ghent, Bruges, Courtrai and Mons —to name ' only the first to be victims of the measure—all men fit to bear arms, rich and poor, irrespective of class, whether employed or unemployed. Hunchbacks, cripples and one-armed men alone are excepted. These men are torn in thousands from their families (15,000 from Flanders alone are sent God knows where), whole tralnloads are seen going east and south. "The German authorities seek these deportations by pretending that It is the duty of the occupying power to make, in accordance with The Hague convention, the necessary regulations r to establish public order and public life. They af firm that the unemployed must not fall a charge upon public charities, and that work whereupon they are employed has nothing to do with the war. “Those who are really responsible for the stagnation and decay of Belgian in dustries are, according to the Germans, workmen who prefer to live on charity rather than on the proceeds of their la bor, and England which prohibited the importation of raw materials into Bel gium. “Is it necessary to answer that there would be no lack of work in Belgium if the Germans had not made a clean sweep of raw materials, copper and oil in the factories —as they will perhaps make a clean sweep tomorrow of all leather belting which must now be declared In detail—if they had not requisitioned In masses machinery, parts of machinery and machine tools? If finally they had not placed prohibitive duties on metal goods exported to Holland In order to keep them out of the market —the only one remaining open as a competitor for German industry? Is it necessary to add that industries cited by the Germans as having no connection with the war, such as quarries and lime kilns, furnish the German army with materials for con crete wherewith to fortify and consoli date trenches? “If they desire to use the arms of our workmen to repair and maintain roads would it be necessary to deport them like cattle instead of employing them in the neighborhood of their homes and families? The truth is that Germany by these corrallings of Belgians intends to liberate an equal number of German workmen to fill the gaps in the regi ments of their armies. The Belgian gov ernment denounces to civilized nations among whom the American people has made itself conspicuous by its love of right and justice, its horror of oppres sion and its eagerness to help the un fortunate victims of war, violations of the laws of nations and the rules of The Hague convention. It protests with all Its power against the slave trade organ ized in Belgium in contempt of the principles of humanity and international conventions.” Confederate Reunion Os 1917 Set for May 28 To June 2, Washington The dates for the next reunion of the United Confederate Veterans have been fixed for May 28th to June 2d, inclusive, according to a message received in At lanta Thursday by General A.

THIS MAN LOST TWO OB THREE DAYS FROM WORK m WEEK R. A. Owen Says He Was in Broken Down Health for Three Long Years—Gains Twenty Pounds on Tanlac. "It's a fact: I haven’t lost a day's work since I took my first bottle of Tanlac, and before that I was in such a bad shape I had to lay off two and three days every week,” said R. A.

I have just finished my sec ond bottle and have gained around twenty pounds an<J I haven’t felt as well in a long time as I do now. For three years I was in a broken-down condition and had a tired-out, despond ent feeling. I had little or no ap petite, and didn’t care fog anything to eat, especially at breakfast. My heart would flutter at times and at other times I would have smothering spells and it was difficult for me to breathe. I kept losing weight and strength unt’l I couldn't work regular. I got to where I never felt like work at all and would have to knock off about half the time I kept getting worse and that was prool that I- hadn't found the right medicine for m.v case. “I read what Tanlac was doing for others who had the same kind of trou bles I had and I determined to try it. I could feel myself building up almost as soon as I began taking it. I got hungry and commenced eating and pick ing up in weight and strength in just a few- days. I can now eat as hearty at breakfast as at any other meal, and I have had no fluttering of the heart or smothering spells since I started on Tanlac. Yes, sir, Tanlac began to unload my troubles right now. and by the time my first bottle was empty 1 . was able to put in full time at my work, 'and I haven't lost a day since that time There’s no guess work about what it has done in my case and I believe it will do .as much for anyone who is.down dn health like I was.” Tanlac is sold by one regular estab lished agency in every town.—(Advt.’ H ' I Special Os for ■iwnfi tj clothes.
