WOMEN ARE TO
HEAD OFF SPIES
<BY ASSOCIATED PREsS)

LONDON, Dec. 3.-W omens clubs
N England have been enlisted in the
movement to head off the activities
Of possible German spies and Aus
trian and German women have been
asked to resign or discontinue their
attendance at many clubs which form
erly welcomed them.
A number of prominent literary
women have urged that English wo-
men should be as cautious as English
men about their associates and should
shun all women Of German or Aus
trian sympathies at a time when
chance remarks might give valuable
information to the enemy.
Reports from Belgium and Holland
of the activities of women spies who
served as governesses and servants in
Belgium and Dutch families have also
thrown suspicion on German and Aus
trian women in service in various
parts of England. The Belgian re-
fugees who are in England have is,
sued general warning against Ger,
man women as we'll as German men
and their tales of how Belgian cities
were betrayed by German spies in al
walks of life have alarmed the English
Alarming tales have been printed
in London papers of alleged German
spies high in social and financia
circles, and practically all of the lead
ing mems clubs have asked men Of
German or Austrian birth to resigr
or refrain from frequenting the club
rooms during the war. Many supposed
spies high in official life voluntarily
left England before the movement
against suspected persons became 81
acute. Charges were generally made
that even Germans who had become
naturalized had often done so onl!
for business and social reasons ant
were at heart Germans as much a!
ever.

Activity In West Flanders.
LONDON, Dec. 3-The increasing
thunder of guns in the vicinity of
Ypres and arrivel at Bruges Of trans
ports bearing wounded men, leads to
the conclusion here that greater
degree of activity has prevailed in
West Flanders than has been reported
in the official communications. All re-
ports agree that in Northern Poland
the battle is still undecided and fierce
ly contested with the Germans making
desperate efforts to resume their for
ward movement in the direction of
Warsaw. From Petrograd comes a
report that General Rennenkaupff has
been made scrapegoat on account of
the Napeleonic coup which enabled
the German forces to cut through the
encircling Gordon. According to this
report the dilatoriness Of Rennen-
kaupff in bringing reinforcements up
made the success of the German move
possible.
