Oof, now. had neither unusual powers
for the chase nor great skill in making
weapons, but he certainly did have a
cunning knack of fashioning ornaments
from bone. to be worn in the lobes of his
ears and in the pierced nostrls of his
wife and children. Olo had not the skill
to make such gimcracks nor cared
for them. but Mrs. Olo grew green
with envy every time Mrs. Oof, all
dressed up, paraded by the Olo cave. She
made things hot for old Olo because he
was so clumsy his wife had nothing de-
cent to wear. For the sake of peace in
his own cave, Olo bargained with Oof
to make some ornaments for Mrs. Olo,
agreeing in turn to keep the Oof larder
filled with meat. He soon found that,
while the better weapons of Bojo had
enabled him to supply two families as
easily as he had supplied one without
them. with third family to support he
either would have TO devote longer
hours to hunting or cut down his own
meat supply. And. because more weap-

Bojo was not so swift nor so strong as
Olo, but he was more skillful in lashing
stones to the ends of sticks and his weap-
ons. therefore. were more deadly Ole
envied Bojo his wea pons. and one day he
proposed that if Bojo would make him
some like them he would share his kill
with Bojo, and the latter need not &c
hunting. Bojo. who preferred making
veal pons to tirinE his rather wabbly legs
in the chase. agreed Thus, industry
was established. But this was produc-
tive industry and did not tend to increase
the cost of living. With the superior
weapons Olo was able to kill enough for
his own family and for that of Boio with
out adding to his exertions. At the same
time. the Bojo family had its usual sup
ply of meat and 8Ir. Bojo had a job more

curately Informed on Sit

tional Law Justifies the
Course.

Washington, Dec. 14.-Germanys
reply to Americas protest against the
deportation of Belgians arrived at the
state department today 1t contends
that the United States has not been
accurately informed of the purposes of
the deportations, which are said to be
made on the ground of social neces-
sity. 1t is as follows:
THE government of the United
States of America has protested
against the transportation of Belgian
worlSingmen to Germany and against
their compulsory employment for
work, basing this on the view that
these measures are in contravention
of humane principles and of interna-
tional practice as to the treatment of
the population in occupied territory.
The German government thinks that
the government of the United States
has been incorrectly informed regard
ing the cause and the execution of the
measures, and therefore considers it
appropriate first to explain the facts
in detail.
PROBLEM OF UNEMPLOYED.
"In Belgium unemployment for a
considerable time has been extending
in a perpleXing fashion among the in
dustrial workingmen. This prevalence
of unemployment has been caused by
the British policy of isolation which
has cut off Belgian industry from the
importation of raw material and the
expectation of manufactured goods,

increased power with which to carry on
the war. according to full reports of
his speech before the chamber of de-

promised that the government would
not undertake any scheme of national

The premier referred to the French
success at Verdun and gains made on
the Somme and derided Germany for
its claim of victory, while it was taking
such measures as what he termed the
militarizing of the entire population.

NECESSITY RECOGNIZED.

economic right, upon which these I'M
employed inflict a heavy burden, as
also from the standpoint of public Or
der and public morals, which are most
dangerously affected by general I'M
employment, and the accompanying
consequences, this situation makes it
extremely desirable and urgent that
efficient measures for improvement
be taken. This necessity has been rec
ognized and pointed out also by fair
minded Belgians for a long time.
Under such conditions the COVER
nor general of Brussels on May Is,
1916. issued an order by which, upon
persons enjoying public relief and de-
Ginning without adequate reasons to
accept or to continue to do work cor
responding to their abilities confine-
ment or coercive labor was imposed.
Belgian industries being in a de-
pressed condition, it was impossible to
procure for all the unemployed work,
or at least proper employment, with
in Belgium itself, The only thing pos
sible, therefore, was to assign them to
work in Germany, where a large num-
