French Government Back in Capital

THERE is an impressive significance in the
i return Of President Poincare, the French
Cabinet and the members of the diplomatic
corps from Bordeaux to Paris. 1t proves the
strength Of the French conviction that the
German onslaught has reached its crest, and
from now on is certain to ebb.
Three months ago German guns were
laundering within sound Of the French capt.
tai. Then came the dramatic counterattack,
the swift retreat OF the invaders and their
decisive defeat in the battle of the Marine,
followed by further retreat close to the
Belgian frontier.
Now the government feels sufficiently Sc
cure to end it's period Of exile and return to
the ancient city on the banks Of the Seine
In French Official circles, at least there is
no doubt that the war has been decided.

Belgium Immigration for the South


M ALTERS OF great Importance to Virginia
IVA and the South will be considered to-
morrow at Washington, where the sessions
Of the immigration Conference will be held
Governor Stuart is expected to attend and
to contribute to the discussion
1t is taken for granted that the wisdom
and practicability of inducing the immigra-
ton to Southern States of Belgian artisans
and agriculturists, especially the latter, will
be treated by some Of the speakers and it is
not impossible that some tentative plan for
dealing with this situation will be framed
There could be no finer illustration of con-
structive benevolence than the bringing of
come OF these unfortunate people to this
country and the South, establishing them on
farms and permitting them to rebuild their
shattered fortunes. The subject is a difficult
one, however, and requires wise handling
II would be stupid policy to urge the i'm
migration here OF men and women untitled 10
core with difficulties and survive initial dis.
appointments, and the proposed settlers
should be selected with sound discretion

singing the praises of that mans town. He
says: Clifton Forge is unique in that there is

without the asking that 1t is in Virginia Not
