LONDON, Oct 14-(By mall Ia
New York. )--While the civic author
tiles, of the captured Belgian towns
have. almost without exception, be-
haved admirably during the German
occupation. there is one man who de-
serves all the best grateful country
can do for him. and that is Adolphe
Max, Chief Burgomaster OF Brussels,
who in sticking to his post, maintain
ing order and ensurlng the protec-
tion OF his fellow citizens, has dis.
played wonderful courage and re-
source.
Scarcely known outside his own
city. and certainly quite unknown out
side Belgium. Burgomaster Max has
made himself famous throughout the
worll In less than two months and
while not openly putting obstacles in
the Germans way he has stood out
against oppression so stoutly that II
Is well known that the Germans would
be only too glad Of an opportunity
TO shoot him.
II would not have taken much, TO
provoke the Germans TO partially de-
stroy the beautiful Belgian capital, It
is believed. but Burgomaster Max
kept firm hold on the reins OF civic
government and by advice and exam
pie he persuaded his subordinates ana
fellow citizens that the evil OF peace
full occupation was better than futile
resistance and certain destruction.
The invaders did not make it easy
to render that obsequous homage de-
manded By Prussian militarism. Max
told the German commander bluntly:
"If you want me TO retain my Job
and keep order am going to be a
real mayor" and as he has Loyalty
adhered to the terms under which
Brussels surrendered, the Germans
have been compelled TO let him alone
for very shame's sake.
The first day OF the German oc-
cupation Max returned to his office
at the Hotel de Ville, 10 find the mil
itary governor OF Brussels seated at
his desk. The German took no notice
OF him and evidently proposed keep
ing him standing at the door like an
ordinary prisoner, but Max wasn't
used to being treated that way He
pulled up a chair and made himself
comfortable beside the intruder.
A few days later the Germans Is
sued a proclamation stating that as
the Belgian government had fled.

take over the job. Max promptly had

Aspirants for Legislative Honors

Within another week it is expected
that Maui candidates for legislative
hopors will be as thick as bees around

good deal, and there is much testing Of
opinion going on to decide how Rice
