PARIS, June S.-A movement
that has already gained considerabl
ground has been begun by French
and Belgian Free Masons TO disin-
ternationalize Freemasonry on the
continent by the exclusion there
from of both German and Austrian
lodges.
The argument is put forth that
neither the Germans nor the Aus
TRANS have shown the spirit of char
ity and fraternity which is the foun-
dation of the principles OF Free
masonry. but have used their privi-
lege of access into French and Eng
lish lodges for the sole purpose of
spying and betraying the craft 10
whom they have sworn brotherhood.
Attention is also called 10 the fact
that Leon Magette, senator from
Liege, was arrested and deported at
the instigation Of German Masons
because he had proposed TO them
that they sit in judgment on the
atrocities corr ~litted in Belgium and

WASHINGTON. June 3. - En-

20 be a result Of the efforts Of Min
lister OF War Kerensky. who has been

Official reports from Russia al

a separate peace. This has upheld
confidence among state department

The great effort here is now 70 be
friendly and sympathetic toward the

time standing ready and anxious to
