American Citizen
Tells Of Nufin0us
Storms in Germany
May Confiscate Property

every indication points to proba-
bic confiscatiOn of property and repud-
iation of perhaps half the war loan
totals after the war. Even the per-
centage of property to be confiscated
is being talked Of, and it seems prob
able that the government will take 20
per cent of, everything.
con the other hand it seems proba-
BILE from all | hear that an even half
of all outstanding war loans will be
nullified. The seventh will suffer ex-
actly as the first, and the first as the
seventh. Fifty per cent will be re-
paid and the other fifty per cent will
be either cancelled or will merely con-
tinue to pay interest-will be a sort
of perpetual investment, the capital
for which cannot be realized.
No immigration
GAS surely as anything can be pre-
dicted there will be in the central pow
ers a series of laws forbidding immi-
grafton, and in anticipation OF them
countless Germans today are talking
about ways and means of getting away
after the war South and North Amer
lea, and particularly enough New Zea-
land and Australia, are the havens to
which they speak of fleeing. The first
German ship that lands in America
after hostilities will leave SO per cent
Of it's crew behind.
"It is becoming clearer and clearer
to Germans every day that all the
talk that has gone the rounds about
central Europe after the model OF
Prof. Naumann and others will be out
Of the question.
Pan-Germanism Decreasing
Contrary to the belief that seems
TO be almost universal outside of Ger
many I really believe that pan-Ger-
manism is on the decrease rather than
the increase, and this despite the in
creased noise about it everywhere in
Germany and the intensive way IN
which it is being encouraged. The
reason for this is that more and more
the German people are coming to real
ize what a catastrophe it will be Tor
them after the war is over if they are
hated in ali the world Pan-German-
ism, they are coming to feel, is likely
to intensity the feeling against them.
and thereby make their economic
struggle in the future more difficult"
He then touched briefly on Austro-
German relations and cautioned
against any hope that Austria will
fall away from her big ally, for, he ex-
planned, she is too dependent finan-
cially and militarily to be able to
shake loose, much as she might like
to do SO. The German military au-
thorities see to it that German SOL
diers are intermingled with Austrian
troops, not only to spur them on in
fighting, but to prevent their quitting.

GOOD ROADS"
FOR TOWNSHIP

Delaware Township is to have a
Good Roads Day." They started
the ball rolling at the meeting of the
township committee, held in Ser
geantsville last Saturday. The mem
bers of the committee, Messrs. Crum,
Cray and Risler, had heard of the
big success of such days in neigh
boring Pennsylvania, and believed
that the Jerseyites were just as
much awake to the necessity of good
roads and a get together movement.
So they got from the Pennsylvania
State Highway Department lot of
information about organization, cam
paign and other details which will go
far toward making the enterprise a
success.
The Good Roads Day." modelled
after those in Pennsylvania, will
carry out the idea of every man in
the township interested in good
roads---farmers, automobiles. bust
ness men, etc, giving one day of his
labor, and his team wherever posi-
BILE, to work the roads. Over in
Pennsylvania some $4,000 men vol
unteered in this way last year and
worked in one day more than 5000
miles of roads. Some day in early
June will be selected in Delaware
township, or just after the corn is in.
The weather should be right, just
about then, for the social end of it,

rolls, and parties have started for
the Middle West, Virginia and points
in Pennsylvania. The men are being
paid 500 per month and upwards
with board and carfare and may be
engaged to work until October Is.
The farmers applying to the Uni
versity for their help seem to feel
that although the students may be
unskilied in farming, there are many
ways in which they can help out the
farmers, to give the latter more
time for increasing their acreage
and crops.

Schools and Gardening.

Six Lambertville High School boys
have been enrolled in the industrial
army. They will engage in agricul-
tural work and will be given credit
at the school so that they may be
promoted or graduated as if attend
ing full term.
Notice was given through the
public schools requesting anyone who
had vacant lots to notify the princi-
pals and they would be used by the
pupils as gardens. One such lot
was offered and two boys applied
for the same.

pose of carrying on the work, each

University Men on Farms.

The farmers of Hunterdon County
can obtain extra hands to help them
out with their work this summer
and harvest the bumper crops so
necessary in the war crisis through
the University of Pennsylvania, in
Philadelphia, where students are be-
ing enlisted daily for this branch of
Government service. County Sup
erintendent of Schools ]. S. Hoff-
man, of Pennington, arranged last
week to keep in touch with the Uni
versity, receive applications for such
labor, and otherwise handle the en-
terprise.
When war was declared, the Off
Gals of the University decided that
the increase of the food supply was
a matter comparing in Importance
with actual enlistments in the army,
so they relieved such students as
might enlist for farm work from
their studies until October Is. AL
ready more than 200 students have
enlisted for farm work, more are
constantly adding their names to the

will handle the feast during the noon

The Oranges of the township are
taking up the enterprise at their
meetings in the next week and the
wide-awakes generally are laying
their plans for a big general boost.
