W.
LONDON. Nov. l2-Nothing has 50
aroused piblic feeling here ~ the re-
ports Of the slave raids OF the German
military go yernment in Belgium.
The British public OF late has been
rather apt to consider the WI as In It's
final stages and the main issues nave
been lost in a maze of politics and after
war policies. Now the entire nation IL
horrined and tue public Is again united
I'm protest against these latest outrages
| against humanity.
For the past two years the American
Relief Commission has been operating In
! BELGIUM under Getmany's assurance
tina, Belgian relief shall not be taken
as a ba sis OF coercion. This Is the cor
ner stone Of the commissions operations.
As far back as the 12th Of last Oc-
! tober Vice Chancellor Helnerich and
Dr. Theodore Lewald head of the po-
iii al department; OF the Ministry OF the
| Interior, in a report to the Reichstag
committee OF state said:
The recruiting OF ayailI BILE labor In
the occupied territories In the interest OF
those territories will be persisted in.

that international law must be Judged In

Decree Authorizes Deportation.
DIR. Lewald pointed to a decree issued
in the coupled territories stating:

penden, on others may be compelled To

The Belgian Government Is deeply
exercised over the deportations. IL
realizes that these men will be needed
for the reconstruction Of Belgium.

OPERATIONS OF TODAY.

(By DR.. E. B. Haslop. Pendleton, OIL
How about the life OF young Mr..
Albee, the son of Portland's mayor,
snuffed out during a sudden operation
for appendicitis?
Yes, accidents sometimes happen,
but it would be more profitable to ev-
eryone concerned if the operation, so
often advised by the surgeon, could
be postponed until advice from an
other physician was obtained.
Well, how about that girl, suffer-
ing from disturbance IN her right
side, due to congested ovary COM
bined with constipation, advised by
her medical doctor ana backed up
by the surgeon, that operation for ap-
pendicitis was imperative?
Owing to timely ADVICE the case was
delayed and after a couple of months
nature. by assistance of Osteopathic
treatment, caused the entire disap-
pearance Of the pam. It is worth
while thinking about.--AdV.
