The Governor-tJeneral, whose policy in Belgium, while aiming no less than Hindenburg's at the destruction ot the Belgian nation, would have I been pursued on subtler lines, had I no doubt lor some tune icit the I l»«»wer slipping trom him. Kemark* | tng to me once on the duiieuities of • hi* jHisilton. he said that he was ex- Iteeted to unite the subtlety ot a ' u.piomatist with the nrmness of n ! soatier. It he did anything that the oelgians approved, which was sei ' uom. he was blamed at Merlin; waen I ne dot someuung mat pleased Her i tin. he was execrated by the Bel ' g;ans. And now, since ilinuenbura I had been apnointed to the supreme I command, since the hero had become < the dictator. Von Hissing no longer • in fact was in command. All was lending then, inevitably I' and fatally, toward a rupture wim America, and r rupture could only mean war in tnc end. My own de; sire was to save the relief work it possib.e, and above all to compro mise it by no inconsiderate act of my own. In these circumstances, and since Von Hindenburg had overridden Von ■ Bissing, 1 reported the lacts to I \\ asuington, anU ventured to sug- I gest tnat seme action be taken at I Mcnin, where the power, if there i was any power in Germany hi«ner I man tne General Stall, aione resided. ...y court-j was approved by the gov- I ernment and the sj o gesiion adopted. I Mr. Gerard had gone honje and Mr. ' Grew was in charge at Berlin, and 1 i sent him all the tacts upon which to I base a representation and kept in | communication with him. November came, cold and gloomy. I with tne bells toiling on Ail Saints ‘•lav for the deau; tae bells in the • ancient UGle chapel of biake. ue- Iniud the orangecic. clanged dis ...ally all day lung. There were long, uoc*DCgo<.e processions in black to iiie cvmt?ivrivs ;<n*i thoughts ot Cue u ad in those new graves all over m-igium and down aiong the Yser; tnoueais. too, of all mose who were being herded by tne slavers to liv ing tombs in German mines and quarries. The theory that it was only choni eurs tvno were to be seized had been i.uaiidoued early in November, at the moment when the German adminis tration was moralizing on the evil ei mects ot idleness. The v.e.e scUitig men everywhere, wnetn ed th<y were idle ur not, amid sad •-.id tragic scenes, over all Brabant and tne Hamault. 1 suggested to Mr. Gi-ew that in case protests, ap peals or representations should fail to stop the hideous thing, some pol icy at least ne adopted; that if tne pretense of seizing only chomeurs were observed it would be some thing, and that if certain classes of exemptions could be created such as would include married men or heads ot families, or onl men for iniliti-rv service, or some such thing it might ameliorate the situation. I suggested also lhat the camps :n Germany be open to inspection by representatives of our emoassy there, or since >nain was in charge of Bel gian interests at Berlin, to the rep resentatives of the Spanish embassy. Lanckcn had gone to Berlin again to discus? the business. He—was gone two days, and immediately on his return (November 11) 1 had a ioii£ conversation with him, in wni-n ne said that he had heard i had been suggested that the Belgian I camps in Germany be open to Anter • lean or other neutral visitation ana . 1 inspection. He said that he was ! heartily in favor of the suggestion, and wished to know if it had ema ! nated from the American govern : ment. or from Mr. Hovoer. or from r me. I told him that since we were living in a world where every one seemed to be much more concerned I about the credit of a thing than about the thing itself, I wished no one to be deprived of what was his ! The idea was Mr. Hoover s, unless it were Villalobar’s, for Mr. Hoover had mentioned it to inc after a con versation with Villnlobar. It was indeed the idea of Mr. Hoover, who was still in Brussels and indignant over the deportations, and Lancken said he would telegraph at once to urge it on his govern ment’s consideration. I said. too. that bad as the whole policy was. it would perhaps be less evil if there were some principle in its application, and I I told him of the indiscriminate , seizures that were being made all over Hainault and Brabant. The baron .said that they could not distinguish • | between chomcurs anil non-chomeurs because they had not the lists. I re | plied that of course the Comite Na- i tional coul<7 not give up the lists. I •’Heavens, no!” he Ra-d. liftinK his hands with an Ironical gesture, as of plo-’s horror. “The Coinite Na- I tional is sacrosanct!" There was the burgomasters, too; I but he recognised the fact, without having to protest, that they could not give up the lists. •’They -would be lynched.”’ he said. | I asked whether, if we were to bring to his notice cases of what might be called injustice under the 1 German policy, as he had defined it— such as seizures of men who were < -nloys'i—thev would be considered Band rectified, and he replied that thev " would. It was agreed that all Bel |S glans employed by the C. N. or by h the C. R. B. should l»e exempt. Be rt yond this, which was so little, the '.'uron’s visit to Berlin had been . lather barren of results. L Cold in Brussels F By one of those ironies that are so implicit and so inevitable in Hie -scheme of things that they must nt ” feet the purely philosophic observer <« of life as monotonous, the winter “ came on very early that year of the “ deportations and was one of the most - severe Belgium had ever known. In Ig November it was already cold—a cold the more bitter because of the hu midity of the low countries. Fuel was B scarce. The Germans were takinr * great quantities of coal from the • * mines down in the Borinage; they ’ * controlled the railways, and as they r!E used all the wagons to transport tneir "• troop- -owurd the front. the chotueurs and coal to Germany, the g urges on the canals were the only " nine means of transport, and > before Xov«-niber was gone the k canals were frozen over, the barges B could not move, and coal for use of ts the Belgian population could not be > brought to Brussels.

Charged That Poles Destroyed Jewish Quarter in Lemberg BERLIN, Wednesday, Nov. 27. (By the Associated Press.) —The charge that the Poles, after captur ing Lemberg, the Galician capital, sacked the Jewish quarter, where the victims nuinl>ered several thousand, is made by the Lemberg correspon dent of the Berlin Tageblatt, who says he left the Galician city Novem ber 24. He telegraphed his newspa per from Beslau as follows: “Since Friday Lemberg, which has been the scene of desperate street fighting, is again in the hands of the Poles after having been stubbornly defended by Ukrainians. The casual ties among’ the soldiers ami civilians arc estimated as iu excess of one thousand. A large -section of the inner citv was completed.' destroyed. “Immediately upon entering the citv the Poles proceeded to sack and burn the Ghetto district, whose vic tims numbered several thousand. T.ie streets were filled with the charred nodies of murdered Jews, many ot whom, m the frenzy of desepair had leaped from the burning buildings, which were surrounded by Polish troops. The Polish authorities were indifferent and declined to take ineasj urcs to halt the .slaughter. Polish legions roped off the streets leading to th" t-iietto and methodically pro ceeded to pillage, rapine and burn ing. . ... “The Polish authorities are at tempting to blame uniformed ban dits for the pogroms, although it >s commonly known that the teraonsts are not only amply supplied with arms and munitions but that they threatened the Jews in the ctent Lemberg was captured. ’ WARE COUNTY VICTIMS WAYCROSS. Ga., Nov. 30.—Until the sinking of the Otranto, the cas ualties among the Ware county boys were very light, considering the large number that went from this county. The number lost by the sinking of this ship will equal, probably exceed, the entire number who were Killed or died from other causes. wore putting in ballast —some sort of Sh Along those tracks for two blocks women and children were clustered like flies, in a black, solid mass, bent over with bags or baskets, grubbing with their half-frozen fingers in that slag for bits of coal. It was one o. those humiliating spectacles, not in frequent in times of peace, but abounding in time of T\ar. ot the indignity that life heaps upon the l It happened to be the day of King Albert s fete, and there were the us ual masses at Ste. Gudule and at bt. Jacques-sur-Coudenberg; the y ßll * l crowds; ’ L’Avenir,” its last chords gliding into ’La Brabanconne, then swelling loudly and more loudly; then the demonstration, the shouts, the cries for the King and nation, and the usual arrests. The Germans were parading their machine guns to cower the restless people, anger ed that day more than ever by the publication in the Bi’usscls journals ] of a French translation of Von Bis sing’s interview with the correspond ent of The New York Times, in which ho explained and tried to justify the deportations The interview was in the conventional tone of hypocrisy, though there was too much Parisian sophistication in the political depart ment to permit Bissing to boast the usual patronising intimacy with the Almighty: I do not know, indeed, that he was that way disposed. At any rate. Brussels was spared that. It was all that Brussels was spar ed. The interview added irony to in sult and injury by the pretense that the deportations were in the Belgian j interest. And the very same day there was proclamation ordering the restoration oY the ruined towns of Belgium, and the injustice of such a demand deepened the indignation of the people. Indeed, the posters at that time appeared to rain dotvrt grief and ca lamity on the land. One of them a few days later announced that the contribution to be paid by Belgium for the year 1917 would be fifty milllion francs a month, an Increase of ten million francs a month oyer the former contribution, and Von Biasing had signed the decree the same <lay on which he gave out the interview stating that the Belgians had been seized and borne off to German mines and quarries solely in the interest of Belgium, which was too poor to suppert idlers. Another decree ot that same day announced that Brussels, Schaer’oeek, and several other communes would thereafter be Flemish communes, which meant that only the Flemish language would be used in the crim inal courts—a part of the plan for the division of the country, and the precursor, many felt, of a decree ordering Flemish to be the sole lan guage in use in the schools. As though the machine guns and all this were not enough, a Zeppelin, with horrid whir of motor, circled low and menacing over lhe city. Tljen. on the 20th of November, there was a great red poster on th • walls, and a red poster was usually either the signal or the seal of trag edy. This notice ordered that, atte the 21st of November, all public es tablishments, hotels, shops, theaters, restaurants, cinemas, in all Brussels were to close at 8 o’clock in the eve ning. No one without a written per mission from the kommandantur, un less he were a German or a citizen of a neutral country or of a country al lied In war with Germany, could be abroad in the streets. The reason given for this measure was that there had been “demonstrations” at Ste. Gudule and at St. Jacques-sur- Coudenberg on the King’s fete, those pathetic demonstrations of sorrow and of the hope that was trying so hard to keep itself alive. But Brus sels thought it was a precautionary measure lor the night v.-hen the slav ers should come to Brussels. Indeed, turn where one would !n Brussels or in Belgium those days, one saw the evidence of some new in justice. When I drove past Quartrc Bras I saw the sentinels arresting groups of poor women, dozens ol them, with the little sacks of pota toes—no need to hide them longer— which they had thought to take home to their hungry children. The wom en, their meek hands under their thin black shawls and bent in the pathetic resignation of the patient poor, were marched away, thir potatoes seized for the benefit of the potato bureau— and they ultimately fined or perhaps imprisoned. “L’emballage” (the round-up) the peasants called It. and to accomplish it there were new and zealous sentinels detailed to that spot, which I had seen change in three years from a gay and lively crossroads, with a popular inn where cyclists and automobilists paused tor luncheon or tea. to a grim sentinel post, where every passer-by was halted, eyed, and often searched. Those who had so confidently hoped that the war would not en dure another winter were giving up hope. The offensive of the allies, of which Brussels wa.s just then in capable of appreciating the military results, had been to waiting Belgium but one more failure, and from Ru mania there was the news of Ger man victory, which seemed so in evitably t<» arrive with every au» tumn. ’And winter wa.- already there —a winter whose snows, some said, would be the Shroud of Belgium. And this was Brussels, once so beautiful and gay and light-hearted in its careless liberty. Must lhe dear little land, the brave little peo ple that bad preferred honor above all. and so instantly flung itself be fore the German legions at and Naumur and saved Faris, and standing again along the Yser saved Britain and America and all their clviliz-*lions had wrought must they drain the cup of sacrifice to the dregs? I got Into my motor to go to the Orangerie. It was twilight. Vague figures were scurrying through the feg of those sad. deserted streets hurrying homeward before the hour of the German curfew. Would the long nightmare ever end? Would the land that reeked German in rus tics and hied from German brutality ever be delivered?

Charges Effort to Discredit Building Os Wooden Ships WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—1 n a statement advocating continuous con struction of wooden ships, Senator Fletcher, of Florida, chairman ot tire senate commerce committee, charges that there is a steady ef fort and propaganda to discredit the wooden type. Reciting lite record of wooden ships built under the jurisdiction of the shipping board, Senator Fletcher said 367 wooden vessels were launch ed up to November 20, of which 93 have been completed and 7G are !n service. In addition, he said, wora has commenced on 193, and contracts were let but were not started on 171. Os th" latt* r, the shipping board has cancelled 48 contracts and authorize 1 the cancellation of 100 more. "This has been done,” said Sena tor Fletcher, “because it is loun.l that the board will have more of those ships than it can economically utilize, particularly when it takes into consideration the 400 steel ship i built on the Great Lakes. “No doubt, too. the board is n fluenced by the propaganda against the wooden ships and the many false reports put into circulat or, concern ing them, and influencing the public mind to conclude that they are on seaworthy and almost worthless. Some of the wildest, roost absurd rumors have been put into circula tion about them.” Only three of the government wooden ships have been lost. Senator Fletcher stated —the Guos, the Black ford and the Dumaru. The wooden steamers. Senator Fletcher asserted, have been operated successfully over seas and coastwise. “Whether they have been operated economically and making a good business showing,” he added, "I have not complete data to prove. What I complain of is the efforts to stifle or destroy an important industry in this country when there is no reason or sense in such a course. In my judg ment we should build wooden ton nage for American and for foreign account and remove all unnecessary restrictions upon operation.” Marketing Board Urges Growers to Hold Their Cotton for 35 Cents The Cotton States Marketing Board does not propose to let its efforts in behalf of lidding cotton for a living price, stop with mere resolutions. Much work has been done by the organization in support of its appeal to the producers to hold cotton for not less than 35 cents a pound, and now the active work of organizing each county in the eotlou belt is in progress. President J. J. Brown, of the Cotton Stales .Marketing Board, has just written to well-known and progressive men iu each county in tieergia, urging them to issue ct onoe n call for a mass meeting with r view to forming an organization to press tho cotton holding movement. It is sug gested that each county select a chairman ■nd n secretary, ami appoint a committee for each miliiin district which will ge actively to work and *<•« to it that no cotton is sold for less than 35 cents u pciut, basis middling. “Show the spinners of Europe that you arc not going to sell your eotton for ‘ess than this figure. liecause it is worth more,” urges President Brown, and lie continues: “This same work of organization is go ing on ul over the belt and this office is securing the names of the district com mittees that your coun'y organization ap points. in order that wc can correspon<l with them and keep their efforts slim uinted “We ask you to act quickly nnd energeti cally.

Members of the marketing board m other cotton states luive Iwen asked to furnish the u:;m-a <-.f eoin mittees in ench of their counties, so that correspondence may be had with them in furtherance <>f the general plan.

COTTON NEW YOKE, Dec. 2.—The cotton mar ket showed continued nervousness and even more feverish fluctuations during today’s early trading.

Dee. 2.—The tendency was to do belter in cotton today, but the slump in Liverpool held the market down in the morning and there was continued un certainty over tenders of bellies, an un der current of buying based on belief in larger exports was in evidence and we think anv increase in shipments will nulck ly be followed by higer prices. JOHN F. CLARK & CO. COTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Doc. 2.—The market this morning opened about 20 lower on De eeniber on a few sales based probably on the belief of further pressure in New York hut when quotations from that market showed a higher opening, later positions here traded 20 to 70 hilgher on the first call. There was not sufficient support to hold the gain. R.ie recent rapid and wide decline in cotton lias affected bullish confi dence aud enterprise, although it is again felt that after Saturday’s severe break, tech nical conditions must be definitely bullish and the reduced price level is worth a new trial in view of the improvement iu ship ping. The pessimistic effect of disturbance and delay relative to the change from war to peace conditions and of possible technical depression from tiie bolly delivery decision, are probably overrated as the following re ports migh indicate: , Dry goods report says: “Retail dry goods trade showed improvement t oday. Cotton goods review says: “Termination of gov ernment contracts is faster than restoration of confidence in values among civilian cus tomers of mills, it appeared this week. This Is causing an unsettled feeling in trade. Fewer cancellations of civilian orders have followed the united determination of mer chants and mills to fight unjust attempts to abandon eontcarts.” Expect Villa to Attack Juarez Soon KI, PASO, Tex.. Nov. SO.—Civil ians were pressed into service in Juarez today and armed by the Car ranza garrison to aid in repelling a threatened attack by Villistas re ported within eighteen miles of the border. American preparedness against border troubles was reflected in the retreat of a small band of Mexicans who crossed the Bio Grande near Fort Hancock, but quickly ret'irne 1 to their own side at the approach of a United States troop patrol. All communication south of Juarez is broken. Mexican telegraph opera tors refused to accompany a Car ranza reconnoitering force which lef- Juarez to scout along the railroad south. Weather conditions are severe for troop movements. American of fleers here have nothing definite «»n Villa's whereabouts, but believe he was at Villa Ahumada and may have started north with an aatteking column.
