A HEAVY TAX TO Be
ASSESSED BElGIANS
By Germany4f Refugees DO Not
Return On Or Before
March |.

WASHINGTON. Feb. l3.--The Bel
ment here denouncing tax impos-
ed by Germany upon Belgian refu-
gees who do not return tn the coun-
try by March ! as contiscation in
violation OF The Hague Convention.
The statement was issued after Min
lister Havenith had called at the
State Department. II follows:
A great number of BelgIans,
amounting to nearly l,000,000, fled
from their country to save their
lives and safeguard their honor af-
ter the burning OF many houses. the
slaughter of many harmless citizens
and the devastation of the country
by the German troops.
Now the German Government
imposes tax equal to ten times the
usual personal tax, on all Belgians
absent from their country who shall
not be back in Belgium before
March /. 1873.
The German Government. after
having imposed an enormous war
levy Of 10000, 900 francs 1895
00o.000) upon Belgium. already
ruined by war and numerous exac-
tions. made on December II, 1914,
the formal promise that no further
taxes would be imposed upon the
country.
The new taxation laid upon the
absent Belgians is. therefore, not
only a violation of The Hague Con-
but constitutes the breach
Of most solemn pledge"

GERMAN TOLL ESTIMATED
AT 10000 TROOPS DAILY

Paris. Feb. 13.--"Ten thousand
troops lost and s13,000,e00 expend-
ed has been the German daily war
toll during the past six months.
said Francis Laur, famous statistic
ian here.
AT the same time Germany Is
paying double. prices for all impor-
tant commodities" he continued.
"Such a terrific strain cannot posi-
bly, be borne beyond next July.
The military theory is that when
an army has lost 20 per cent. of its
electives il becomes imperative;
that Is to say. il cannot win.
Germany has lost SO per cent. of
its electives after allowing for the
slightly wounded who are capable
of returning TO the front.
Il don't believe the German peo-
pie soon can he reduced by famine.
and that is The opinion of Jules
Cambron. our last Ambassador toBer-
lin, but the scarcity of gold and the
fearful defamation Of her army will
be found to make her admit defeat

Germany and Austria's gold re-
serve at the end of December
amounted to S626, 100000, whereas
the allies had in reserve s2.2J9.-

The time has arrived when the
people of this country should think
of their own native land also, when
contemplating chapity towards for
eign nations. The old adage that
charity begins at home" never had
80 strong an application as right
now. There are many people in this
country who are in quite as pitiable
condition as some OF those distress
ing situations in Europe. The Eu-
rOpean war has been the primal
cause Of all this. We should at least
divide our donations between the
suffering poor OF this and other
