The Belgian Deportations.

Accounts of Germany's forcible de
portation of Belgian men from then
own country into Germany have come
from sources that cannot be disputed
and which leave no doubt that it is now
the fixed policy of the government at
Berlin to ship great numbers of the in
habitants of Belgium away from their
homes, presumably for occupation III
Germany. Already. it is stated, from
50 900 to 10000 have been thus deported
and others are being sent out at the
rate of 1000 day. According to this
information. the German plan is to take
300 900 Belgian men out of their coun-
try.
The United States has entered 4 pro-
test against this procedure, the effect
of which is yet uncertain. There is no
reason at present to expect 4 stoppage
of the practice i'll consequence of it, as
Germany is likely to dispute the right
of this country to discuss the matter
or to enter objections. On this point,
however, there is room for strong con
tention on behalf of humanity. No &C
cepted precept of international law JUS
titles the forcible expatriation of the
people Of captured or OCCUPIED" ter
ritory in the course of war. Germany
can have no justification in terms of
existing rules for sending away the Bel
gian male population on any ground save
that of humanity itself And, thus far,
no such justification appears or is even
attempted.
The claim is made by Germany that
these men have refused to work and
that their deportation is a measure of
discipline. Surely if the Belgians are
to be treated as a conquered people,
Germany has the means in Belgium it
self to discipline them, to compel them
to work for their sustenance Assuredly
there has been no lack of disciplinary
measures thus far in the war. Mem
cries of the early days, of the horrible
affairs at Termonde and Louvain and
elsewhere in Belgium permit no doubt
of the capacity or the willingness of
the German commanders to enforce their
will upon these people, so helpiessly
caught in the cruel grip of conflict.
If the deportation is a measure of
more effective feeding, why the separa-
ton of the sexesf If it is a matter of
discipline, why send the men out of
their own country when they can be
made to work at home? Little doubt
can remain that these men are being
sent into Germany to work there for
Germany, to replace the men who are
at the front, to relieve the economic
stress. This, if true, is a direct viola
ton of the principles Of international
practice, and the United States, failing
prompt assurance that it's first protest
is needed, should strongly reiterate, in
more pointed terms, its disapproval of
this measure.

Cabinet Talk.

While timely and interesting, current
cabinet talk is not important. If the
President decides to make no changes
in his official advisers he will be as
sured Of q continuation of the team
work he has been commanding. If for
any reason or reasons changes are
thought advisable, good men in every
way qualified will be within his reach.
1t is suggested that if the President
calls any new advisers to his side he
will have in mind Strengthening his
party for 1920, and himself In the mat
ter of influencing the nomination for
the succession. As Jackson nominated
and elected his successor, and Roosevelt

those two men for success in the presi-
dency, is supposed to have a like Dur.
pose in view.
And this is followed by the sugges-
ton that, In this way, bull mooser may
be chosen. Some prominent bull moosers
supported Mr.. Wilson. In fact, the re-
suit In both Kansas and California is
credited to men who for the first time
voted for democratic candidate for

Mr.. Roosevelt, and without much

sentially specialists. They are as much

that they are held by actually frmer
