Charges made by Belgian civilians
that their property has been damaged
by military occupancy are receiving
careful and impartial investigation
through the military courts estab-
lished by the German Administrations.
As these Investigations proceed it be-
comes evident that such charges are
baseless. A typical case is reported
in the Hamburg Fremdenblatt from
Courtrai. The dispatch says:
Charges made by Miss de Braban-
dere, about forty years Of age, real
estate owner and proprietress OF
lace house in Courtrai, have been in
vestigated by the German military
court here. Miss de Brabandere is
q member of a highly respected
family. Her brother is a successful
physician. The compliment had fed
to Amsterdam. From there she
wrote o letter to q business acquaint-
ance in Berlin that contained severe
accusations against the German
troops who had taken quarters in
Courtrai. In part her letter reads:
My brother wrote me that my
house in Courtrai was plundered by
the German soldiers who were quar-
tered there. All the furniture was
taken away. Only wood, coal and the
stock of provisions on hand were left.
A great many expensive repairs will
be necessary in order to restore the
house to a habitable condition Dis
infection will also be necessary. Two
hundred houses in Courtrai were
damaged in the same way 1t is inn
possible to understand these actions
on the part of the German soldiers
since the Kaiser on the occasion of
his visit to Courtrai praised the pro-
yisioning Of the German soldiers by
tho inhabitants.
The Berlin friend sent this letter
to the war Office. and an investigation
was made. The German military
officials commissioned the Belgian
attorney general in Courtrai to find
out whether the statements OF Miss
de Brabandere were correct This
gentleman stated before the court
that he had inspected the house and
that nothing had been destroyed and
no furniture removed. There was,
indeed, evidence that soldiers had
been quartered there, but this was
unavoidable He also stated that he
knew nothing Of damage inflicted on
200 houses
Tho brother of the defendant, DR..
de Brabandero, stated that he had
never written his sister in Amster-
dam anything to give substance to
her statements. He had written her
to return to Courtrai because her
house would surely be used to quar-
ter soldiers. Consequently it would
be better if she were present.
Miss de Brabandere, who returned
from Amsterdam to Courtrai at the
end of December, confirmed her
brothers statements. She admitted
that all the facts stated in the letter
to the Berlin acquaintance were un-
true. She declared that she was
nervous and that her health had been
impaired by the war. She had writ
ten the letter under the influence of
stories which fugitives from Louvain
had told her.
A German staff physician declared
that in his opinion the defendant was
very nervous and poor in health.
The occurrence, says the Fremden-
blatt, is a typical instance of the way
in which lying stories about German
barbarism reach other countries and
gain credence there.

Gba1 he expected to shoot and kept
advancing. When he was near
enough Woodhurst made a dash for

TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT
SOUTHERN COTTON MILLS

The Manufacturers Record.
Last Sundays New York Herald
carried an exceptionally interesting
story about Greensboro, N. c., and
its splendid cotton-mill development.
pointing to Greensboro as the one
place in the world which had solved
the problem of the relations between
capital and labor. The tribute paid
by the Herald to the great work
which the Cones have done at Green's
boro in their cotton-mill operations
and the betterment of labor condi-
tons was well merited. Their work
deserves all that the Herald said
about it, and yet there are many
other places in the South where SINH
lar work being done.
No industry in the worlds history
probably was ever so misrepresented
and lied about as the cotton-mill bust
ess of the South. Dozens of cotton
mills in the South are doing exactly
the same work that is being done at
Greensboro, and the Manufacturers
Record would like to suggest to the
Herald that it could not do a greater
piece of constructive work for the
good of the country at large as we'll
as for the good of the South than to
tell in full details the story of the
many other mills throughout the
South which are doing work similar
to that of the Cones at Greensboro.
1t is true that not all cotton mills
in the South have measured up to
the situation, but it may be said that
the cotton-mill industry of the South
in proportion to the money invested
and the people employed, has ex-

pended more money in educational
work for it's employees than any other
industry in this or any other country.
At Pelzer schools for employees were
maintained by the mill long before
Greensboro became a cotton-mill CEN
ter. The Eagle & Phoenix Mill Of
Columbus, Ca, which %antedates the
Civil War, has for many years been
doing similar work. Other mills at
Greenville, Gainesville, Kanapolis
and Dwight-and, indeed, there are
too many other places to mention
have been carrying on broadly and
comprehensively the educational and
bctterment work for their employees
which called forth such unstinted
praise from the Herald writer in
dealing with the Greensboro situation
The work of the Cones which re-
ceived such well-merited praise is du-
plicated at other points in the South,
