Lieutenant De LAGRANGE, of the

this message in series Of interviews:
Lieutenant De LAGRANGE is typical
French soldier. He served two years
as private, worked his way up through
non-commissioned positions and then,
after competitive examination, was
made sub-lieutenant in the cavalry.
Lieutenant De LaGrande participated
in the retreat from Belgium. After
that fighting the cavalry practically

in the 18 months he has been in the fly

Atlanta, Ga, June 20.-Ameriea must
awaken and organize for war on an en-
ormous scale or face long period Of
CHASTITY fighting and world wide suffer
ing. This was the message brought be
fore the International Rotary conven-
ton here today by Pomeroy Burton,
manager and director of the London
Daily Mail and other British papers.
"By long period mean from five
to 90 years or more,' said Burton.
Burton predicted that If America
doesn't wake up and strike hard and
quick our own shores win be menaced
FWhy does the average American
citizen fail to grasp the vital fact that
if Germany should destroy the British
fleet or overthrow the massed forces OF
the allies on the western front, the re-
suit would be quick national death FOR
this, the greatest of all the world IS re-
phblies, Y he asked "The reasons for
Americas strange lethargy in the face
of real national danger are two fold,
he said. First, the allies policy of
close censorship has resulted in keep
ing the full flow of war facts and a
reasonable understanding of the war 8

Second, the attitude which unfor-
tunately was taken by leaders of public
opinion during the earlier stages OF
the war, that it WAS no concern OF this
country.
Would Disclose Horrors.
rThis attitude unquestionablF served
to create sense of entire indifference
to the war issues in the mind Of the
American people generally. /"
For remedy, Burton urged that the
British censorship disclose the horror
of German atrocities in Belgium and
elsewhere, and that the American gov
ernment put an efficient war presi
agent at work in every city. town and
village in the land.
eff there could be radical revision
of the French and British censorship
rules, - said Burton, permitting a
much freer flow of all sorts Of war facts
and war developments from the fighting
areas, the effect, feel sure, would be
enormously beneficial to the allied
cause

One Legend Read: President

Are Deceiving Russia
THIS FLAUNTED BEFORE
RUSSIAN COMMISSION
Crowd Of 300 Women and
Men Tore Up Banner and
TraInpled 1t In Dirt

Washington, June o0.-Incensed at
suffrage pickets, who Haunted denun-
Ieiatory banners before the white house
gates as the Russian commission en-
tered to greet President Wilson, an
angry mob of three hundred men and
women, mostly government clerks out
on lunch hour--charged the women and
tore the banners to shreds.
"President Wilson and Envoy Root
are deceiving Russia was the accu-
sation printed in black type on ban
ner ten feet high displayed at the two
official entrances to the white house.
'They say we are democracy. Help
US win world war so that democracies
may survive. We the women Of America
tell you that America is not democ-
racy" continued the legend on the
banner. Twenty million women are
denied the right to vote. President Will

Itional enfranchisemcnt.

Hibernate its people before it can claim
| free Russia, as an ally.
Niss lucy Bufns,s New T0rk. and
Mrs. Lawrence Lewis, Philadelphia, eas
lried the banners.
Guards We're Silent
Shortly after the women went ON
duty at 10 o. 'clock this morning crowds
began to gather before them, jeering.
Augmented by government clerks, who
lswarmed ont of nearby buildings ar
lunch time, the crowd s temper began
| to rise.
The police guards at the white house
gates, with whom the suffragists pick
cts have been on very friendly terms
since they started their 'fguard
mount, were grimly silent and made
no move to check the crowd when it
advanced suddenly toward the piclsets.
Several men then jerked down the
banners, tore them to shreds and
trampled the remnants under foot. Gov
ernment and office clerks for blocks
around rushed to the scene. Police from
| the white house grabbed several ring
leaders in the crowd, but the sergeant
in charge ordered their release He him
self ripped down the last shrcds Of the
banners. The women carrying the ban
ner were unharmed.
The police took the frame on which
the legend was mounted into the white
house grounds.
The incident was called to the at
ltention of the department Of justice
shortly after it occurred and an invest
igation was started at once to deter
mine whether there was anything treas
enable in the first line Of the women Is
placard, which accused President Will
son and Mr.. Root of deceiying Russia.
State department authorities were in
doubt whether this constituted med
ding in delicate negotiations involv-
