No honorable white person is dis
crlminated against. let his religion
or politics be what 1T may. But they
must be honorable or he moves out.
The picnic fully demonstrates the
working Of this plan. Fully 200 per-
sons were present. Each family
brought his lunch basket, and the din
ner was spread on long table whose
legs trembled beneath the load Of good
things. +.
First was served barbecued hash in
prodigal abundance. 1t was cooked by
j. A.. Pearman, j. Nj. Smith, j. B.
Smith and Herman jackson, and was
fit for a king.
Following this other meats, vege-
tables. pies. cakes. ETC., were served
by committee of young people.
There was no rushing or grabbing,
but all were. waited upon and tempted
to eat more than was good for them.
The evening was spent in social chat.

In Defense of Germany.

New York. Aug7 Prior to Germans
attack on Liege. Sir Edward Grey
tried to impose or Germany condi-
tions which Great Britain could have
obtained only after successfu, war,
according to statement issued here
tonight by Haniel Won Haimhausen,
head OF the German embassy in Wash
ingtpn In the absence OF Count yon
conditions, said Mr. Haimhaussen, II
Vernstorff, the ambassador. These
accepted, would have led to absolute
inactivity by the German fleet.
ut is erroneous to assume" said
Mr.- Haimhaussen, that the English
declaration of war was caused exclu-
siyely by Germany's invading Belgi-
um. Negotiations in London had pro-
ceded the German attack on Liege.
During these negotiations Sir Edward
Grey promised that England would
remain neutral only under the follow
ing conditions:
"First-Germany be not allowed to
commit any act Of hostility against
the French coast in the North sea.
Second-German troops be not al
lowed to pass through Belgian terri
tory.
"Third-The German navy be not
allowed to attack Russia from the
Baltic sea.
T, To the question put by the govern
menl as to whether Great Britain
would undertake to respect Belgian
neutrality during the war, NO answer
was given.
"Sir Edward tried to impose condi-
tions which would have secured to
Great Britain without running any of
the risks and all benefits !, 1t could
have obtained only by successful
war. Acceptance OF these conditions,
would, have led to the bottling up OF
the whole German fleet, forcing 1t to
inactivity.

the central exceptional piece, the high
land country through which the Mouse
has cut its way, or has had a way

the struggles between the confirmed
West and the uncertain Germanies,
the central gorge of the Mouse has

Motor Fuel In War.

quirements that a motor be capable Of
using three different fuels-gasoline,
benzol and alcohol-with the same
carburetor. The present war. with ita
shortage Of fuel. has demonstrated
how essential 1t Is to be able to use
one or the other. There are places in
the zone Of activities where only ben.
zol can be had; at another place alco.
hol only is available. and at third
gasoline Is on hand. It was wise
precaution that made 1t imperative
that motor be capable of using one
or all of these fuels.
