HAVRE TAKES ON
FOREIGN ASPECT
Belgian Government Occupies
Big Hotels, Clubs and a
Department Store.

Correspondence of the Associated Press
HAvRE, October 27.-Havre, the wal
capital of Belgium, looks little differ
ent from the Havre of other days. The
reason is the Belgians have taken over
a summer resort in the suburbs. known
as Nice-Havrais, and turned its hotels.
clubhouses and casinos into govern
ment offices, not neglecting private
dwellings and a large but half empty
department store.
Automobiles flying the Belgian colors
race along the boulevards, but If the
city has taken on any foreign tinge it
is rather British, for British soldiers
and motor vans may be seen every
where.
The main offices of the Belgian gov
ernment are divided between the Ho-
tellerie, a large tea and club house
on a point overlooking the sea at the
farther end of Nice-Havrais. and the
department store, over on the Havre
side. The higher government officials
have taken houses nearby. while the
lesser stay in the city hotels.
Relief headquarters are maintained
for the Belgian refugees in the city
hall of Havre. There bread tickets and
old clothes are distributed and work is
found for those able to work. Me-
chanics of all classes, particularly
those with telegraph, railway or foun-
dry experience, are engaged onhand,
since they are badly needed in France,

FEAR OF OTHER NATIONS.
Somebody Is Responsible for Start.
ing the War.
RoB the New York Globe.


Col. Roosevelt. in his latest war arti-
Gle. after complimenting equally the
coInhatants. as BELTS a man in active
oontScs. finds that the fundamental cause
ef the war is ail-around fear. Great
Byftain. France and Russia, he says,
have an honest fear of Germany's pow
q and aggressive spirit. while Ger
many. IN turn. honestly fears the
power and aggressive spirit of each
one of her opponents
That the combatants arc mutually af-
nicted with fear is not open to ques-
tlon. IT Is to the interest of the Ger
man military party. desirous of unit
was forced" on Germany, and. though
technically aggressive, she is actually
defensive. Similarly the British gov
eminent relaxes it's rigid censorship
10 permit the freest republication of
Germany vauntings of intentions to
destroy the British empire. The French
newspapers have been filled with tssti-
mony. drawn from German sources,
tending to show that Germany pro-
posed to annex half of France. Russia
IL persuaded that she is hghting to
defend herself, and so is Austria-Hun-
gary. and so. of course, is Servia. Wars
are always defensive if one is to be-
lieve the combatants. Rome always
steadily asked for the destruction of
Carthage in the interest of the safety
OF Rome. Even Attila doubtless in
formed his horde that they Were fight
Ing to protect their fatherland.
{, 1t Is not enough, if correct Judgment
is to be arrived Hat with respect to a
particular war, to accept at face value
what the combatants say. Nor does it
settle anything, as Col. Roosevelt seems
to imply. when it appears that each
of the involved nations sincerely be-
1ieves IL is merely defending itself. The
world will never get on by equally ex-
-cusing and equally condemnins. There
must be some discriminating examina-
-tion. In most quarrels there is an ag-
greesor. and the fact is to be collated
mot from what the combatants say or
what they feel. but from their be-
havior. In 1900. when Great Britain
was at war in South Africa, the world
formed an opinion to which side
was aggressive and which side de-
fensive- Similarly as to this war, it
seems possible to determine which side
is aggressive and which side is de-
fensive.

English Woolens for Russia.

From the London Chronicle.
The order received in Yorkshire for
100000 Russian tunics reminds one
that our export clothing trade played
an important part In the struggle with
Napoleon, who tried to crush it by pro-
hibition and by futile attempt to start
an industl ial revolution. on his own ac-
count. That the English export CLOTH

tion undertaken with the main object
of compelling Russia to boycott our

mouth from eating dry feed.
The other case was on the farm OF
George w. Hough, in Waterloo. When
DR.. Ward examined this case he found
that it lacked the general symptoms
of foot and mouth disease and on
closer observation he decided it was
case of sore mouth. contracted from

outbreak of foot and mouth disease in

teurized milk should be sold within

Excessively old and dirty milk is

cannot be successfully pasteurfZed, and
the large number and the varieties of
germs in it show clearly how unsuc-
cessful such efforts are. In order to
kill the germs in such milk, active boil
ing is necessary; but the dealer cannot
boil it without that fact becoming ap-
parent to the purchaser. and therefore
he resorts merely to pasteurization to

milk as fresh milk before it is alto

No Quarantine on Poultry.
The rise in price Of poultry Of ali
kinds which is reported to have taker
place in various states cannot in any
way be attributed to the outbreak o,

statement issued today by the Depart

This disease does not affect poultry
at all, and the federal quarantines Of
various states-fourteen in a1l-noW
lay no embargo upon shipments Of
poultry. For instance, Rhode island
can still send out her Thanksgiving
turkeys, although no cattle, sheep OF
swine can leave her territory.
"It is true that when case of foo'

antined by the state or local authori.

Since the disease, moreover, is read.

their own discretion in determining
what restrictions should be placee
