ITO THE VERY END'
 IS MESSAGE
PARLIAMENT AND THE WHOLE COUNTRY IS OF ONE
 MIND ON WAR

From time to time, it has been hinted at, and sometimes asserted that the allies had had some disa- greements and that the understand ing prior to the war, or rather at the declaration of war, was not be- ing carried out with the enthusiasm and friendly feeling existing at that time. Likewise, a certain amount of dissention has been reported with in France itself. In order to get at the bottom Of the rumors, an As sociated Press correspondent re- gently interviewed the president of the French chamber of deputies and in substance the following is what Mr. Paul Deschanel answered.:
 Parliament and the country are of one accord. They say to the world, To the very end"
 Speaking of the work of the par Iiament during the last year, Mr. Deschanel said:
 ssThe chamber has maintained a union Of all Frenchmen. Some live Iy debates have occurred and the enemy's newspapers affect to see in them signs of discord, but the maneuver is a coarse one, and the opinion Of neutral countries should not be deceived by it. Free dis cussion Is the essence of parlia- mentary regime. It does not al ways imply discOrd.
 Notice for instance, what tooI place concerning particularly deli cate question, the call to arms ot the 1917 contingent. No one oppos. cd the principle of the measure representatives of France being ready. for all sacrifices necessary tt obtain victory. But, if they do mol begrudge the country's resources they want the best use made ot them for national defense.

ONLY ONE MAN TO 40
 WOMEN IN POLAND
POLISH REFUGEE REACHING
 PORTLAND TELLS OF WAR

Mrs. Stella Miller, a native born German, arrived recently in Port land, Oregon. from Miloslaw, Posen, Germany, to make her home with her resident daughters. When Mrs. Miller was interviewed, she gave the following story of the condition of the country:
 German Poland is drained of able bodied men for soldiers in the army of the kaiser until there are 40 women to one man, and that man is either cripple or too old to bear arms.H
 Thousands of German women and children unprotected while their husbands are at war are starving to death, according to Mrs. Miller. In some towns here the able-bodied boys and men from IT to 55 years old have been called upon to join the German colors the front, tine children left at home are naked in the streets, she asserts.
 To obtain loaf of bread one must visit the police station, where 8 ticket Is obtained, entitling the bearer to secure one loaf daily.
 The necessaries of life are taken from the mouths of children to sup ply the men in the army. Some men return from the front from time to time. but all are crippled by wounds and are unable to work. Most of the many thousands who have re- turned are without arms or legs; their eyes are destroyed, or they are wounded in way that will make them dependent upon others throughout life.
 The work on the farms, in the stores and in the streets is all done by women and children or men too old and infirm to bear arms. When the army of the kaiser passed through German Poland on it's way to Warsaw, some troops entered Miloslaw. where Mrs. Miller lived. The Polish people were driven from their homes and their property de- stroyed. The able-bodied men were pressed into German service, al- though their sympathies were with he allies. 4 citizen who dared lift his voice against the Germans was shot without mercy. Women were driven from their beds at night to make room for tired soldier and if they objected they were shot.
 The indenlnities and taxes imposed upon the people were so high that it The inremnities and taxes imposed upon the peiple were so high that it was impossible to pay them.
 The German people are confident of victory in the end, in spite of the privation they are encountering in the way of food. If citizen dares to dispute German victory at the end of the war he is taken out and shot, according to Mrs. Miller.
 It Is war not of men and war implements, but of food. The army which is able to keep a constant supply of food the longest will win, but if the war is prolonged, the sol diers Of Germany will return to find their wives and children starved through the sacrifices that have been made to keep the soldiers in strength for fighting.

In the midst of an especially ex-

AS a matter of fact, however, most
Belgians are yuite indisposed to make
themselves seriously anxious about
the execution of Baron Won Bissing's
plan. 1t is in one sense an easy
matter to open a Flemish University
but university must have professors,
and students and that is where the rub
comes. Nevertheless, continued efforts
are being made both in Belgium AMI

benefits of such education might be
withheld for long period yet from

There is no single reason for you
to speak of my resolve as a superfuou3
Gift that the Flemish might not accept
at German hands. Likewise, your
opinion that the question Of the Chem
University is one of purely Information
al Belgians policy, in which the occu-
pying power is not competent to in
tervene, is neither actually nor legally
justifable You know we'll that in
peace time, in contrast to the French,
Germany has always avoided mixing
itself up in these matters. So much
the less can allow that the governing
and administrative rights which Ger
many, as occupying power, now has in
Belgium, with regard also to higher
education, be restricted in any way.
Neither can the normal objections
raised by you stand a close inquiry.
Whoever opposes the reform ordered
by me is aiming a blow at a vital in
terest of the Netherlands race in Be-
GUM, without thereby in the least ben
efitting the Belgian state. AS is we'll
known to you, this is recognized in a
wide circle among the Flemings, who
have no thought of approving the
stand taken by you. Whether the dif-
ficulty or practical impossibility of
carrying out the scheme which yea
indicate is fact, time will show. You:
assertions that the conceptions re.
garding Belgium's international re-
