For Good" of Belgians.

AMSTERDAM. via London. November
13-The koelnische Volks Zeitung
publishes a long article on the subject
of Germany's deportation of Belgian
workmen, in which it says. in part:
These measures are not connected
with the war. but are dictated solely
by consideration of a sane police ad-
ministration. which could not allow
thousands of able-bodied workers to
go to ruin by remaining deliberately
unemployed and spending their time
unprofltably in cafes. Germany's action
is the result of humanitarianism which
would justify even the use of coercion
in the circumstances

SERENADE TO FEATURE
PARADE AND JUBILEE
President and Mrs. Wilson to Hear
Chorus of 200 Voices, Probably
Thursday Night.

A serenade for the President and
Mrs. Wilson will be one of the features
of the big red fire and torchlight pa
rade and jubilee being arranged by the
Wilson and Marshall Democratic Asso-
citation. and other organizations. A
music committee. headed by Walter
Costello. was organized today and i'm
mediately arranged for the serenade,
which will be sung by a chorus of
200 voices directed by Mrs. Charles H
Fred The tentative date is now Thurs
day.
Charles w Darr and George w
Lfnkins called at the White House to-
day. They conferred with the Presi-
dents secretary. Joseph P. Tumulty.
the President would rather see the
proposed parade and jubilee a citi-
zens' affair without the slightest tinge
of politics. When the parade idea was
first discussed there were few jubi-
liant democrats who declared they
would have nothing to do with the
parade unless it should be a strictly
democratic affair. Cooler heads
than theirs prevailed, and the counsel
of the White House is that any friends
of the President, regardless of poll
tics, who wish to take part can do SO
without embarrassment.
Red Fire to Be Had.
The shortage in red fire is decreasing,
and Chairman Darr today was prom
ised a carload of it if he desires. The
big question discussed by the commit
tees in charge was the date and the
number of bands. According to the
latest schedule. there will be seventeen
bands in line. The democratic central
committee, which represents thirty-two
districts. promises a band for each four
districts: navy yard employees promise
three bands, the Wilson and Marshall
Democratic Association will have one
band. and perhaps two: the Eight-Hour
League will have band. and other
organizations will furnish music
enough to bring the number to seven
teen at least.
The American Federation of Labor now
in session in Baltimore, will be asked to-
morrow to adjourn on the afternoon Of
the Jubilee and reception and come to
Washington to take part in the parade
John Lorch will go tomorrow to the con-
vention as special messenger and request
that Samuel Gompert. president of the
federation, appear at the head of the di-
vision which would represent the or
ganiZation.
The Mississippi Society will have three
