HUNGARIAN WAR AIMS
DEFINED BY 'H|RLAP"

London, Dec. 26.--Partial dis
memberment OF Roumania, control
OF the Danube river and domination
OF Serbia. are the Hungarian war
aims as defined In the Budapest
Hirlap. organ OF Count Stephen
Tlsza. formerly premier OF Hungary.
1--WE want part OF Roumania. an
area OF about $1,000 square kl!o-
meters. including Buzen, Danbolotza
and Prahovo," declares the news
paper. "Why? Because II is prefer
able for us to have frontier near
Bucharest. The cannon VIII roll
better descending the Carpathians.
The Roumanian fox must not play
the role OF the wolf between the
Magyar town Of Buzen and the Bull
garlan Dobrudja. The richest oil
wells are there, and the best salt
mine Is at Prahovo.
"Then we want 10000 square
kilometers near Orsova and In the
elbow OF the Danube. Why? Be-
cause It is preferable that our door
should be shut Let us possess the
Danube In common with the Bull
garians, In order to make the Berlin
Bagdad route more sure.
I'm the peace treaty we must be
assured of a 30 years right to con-
struct an Austro-H Hungarian canal
across the lMoravo-vardar valley,
which must be under our admins
tratlon and control. To make this
certain we shall demand that the
Serbian army be permanently sup
pressed and the Serbian throne occu-
oled by sovereign approved by the
9mperor OF Hungary.
IA miracle will be accomplished
n the twentieth century; seven hun
dred millions OF men In China and

tenn OF European activity. That win

FRENCH WOMEN EXCEL
IN CAMOUFlAGE ART

Behind the British Lines In
France. December 1.-(Correspon-
dence)-Many thousand French
women and girls. ranging in age
from fourteen to we'll past so. are
employed by the British army at
various kinds of work behind the
lines. One line at which they excel
all other workers is the painting of
camouflage on guns. They also
make very good packers at the var
oius army storehouses and ordnance
dumps. their deft. active fingers
making 1t possible for them to do
this work with so per cent more eff
cheney and speed than any other
class of worker.
In many Of the clerical sections of
the ordnance department they work
side by side with the uniformed Eng
lish girls belonging to the "Waacs,"
as the members of the women's aux
iliary army corps. are called and in
these departments a numerical sys-
tenn OF marking has been adopted in
order to facilitate sorting. as most Of
the French girls have no knowledge
of English.
More than 1000 French women
are engaged in the Receipts and
Salvage Department, where their
work includes the repairing Of res
pirators and other equipment, the
scrubbing and renewal of harness
and leather materials in an oil bath,
and the sorting and recovering of
cartridges and water bottles.
In the boot and shoe repairing de-
partment at one base $500 French
women are employed in boot maxi
ing and repairing. In the armorers'
shops French girls clean, oil and test
bayonets. In the wheelwrights shops
they clean and straighten bolts and
paint wagons and travelling kitch-
ems.
In work at piece rates. the out
put of the French girls has been
found to exceed that OF German
prisoners by more than so per cent.
