4 CORRECTION BY
CHAIRMAN S. J. DERRICK

The statement on the front page
of The Herald and News of Angus,
81, that the 45 absentees are in
cluded in the 16S certified to the Dis
trict Board, is mistake, but 1t was
my mistake and not the Editors. OF
course the mistake was unintentional,
16S names have been certified to the
District Board; the IS absentees have
also been certified to the District
Board; both have been certified but
the As are NOT included in the 15S
Some of the 45 are already in the
army, and their status is blameless
and even CONNER .ble. The others
will soon be in the hands of the Fed
eral Government. Their status IS
perilous.

GERMAN SPIES
INVADE NORWAY

Ch%ristiania, Oct. 25.-Norway Is
making vigorous efforts to stamp out
German espionage within it's shores.
The Swedish revelations have given
a great impetus to the anti-spy cam
paign.
The informed German ship Berlin"
is to be removed from Hommelvik to
Aqsenfiord. further inside the coast
line. 1t has been urged for a long
time that the position of the Berlin"
offered opportunities for espionage on
shipping.
Guards have been placed not only
over all Norwegian military establish
ments. but also at some of the large
industrial works. Thus a military
picket has been posted al the fred
rickstad iron works. where the new
slips for 10,000-ton ships arc now
ready, and t~respassers have been
warned to keep away.
Under a law of July. 1917, the
commune of Christiania has ordained
that the chief of police may forbid
persons who are not Norwegians to
reside in the commune longer than a
certain fixed period. A new law con-
corning the necessity of passports and
the expulsion of aliens is to be rig
idly enforced after October 1.
A-spy case which caused a great
furry for a time vas that of a Dane
named kristiansen, who has now
been expelled from the country. The
whole affair developed into an impu-
dent fraud. with one of the belliger-
ent governments. as the victims. KRIS
Hansen was obtaining money from
this government by giving or promis-
ing to give information of no real
value about another.

Dangerous Period for America When
Germany Finally Gets Ready to
Lay Down and Discuss Peace Terms

be the moment when Germany, ad-
hitting she cannot win, offers to make
peace on the basis of the status quo
ante-to go back to where things
were before h set forth so bhthely
upon her Great Adventure.
Already her newspapers talk of such
a peace. The Reichstag mo annexa-
tions and no indemnities" resolution
is a "feeler" for it. The war lords al
low this talk to be made, although
they have not officially sanctioned the
proposition.
The day will come when they will,

from what we see quoted from Ger
the people of Germany think they
have only to offer to go back to
where they were before the war to
gain peace. When they say mo an
nexations and no indemnities" they
mean no annexations i, by Germany
and no indemnities to be collected by
Germany. because it has not even en-
tered the head Of n man in ten in
all Germany that they may be forced
to- make r%eparation.
Also Germany does not understand
that any mere promise on her part
not to attack her neighbors will not
be taken. The Germans as a whole
still are deceived into thinking their
rulers did not start the war. They do
not appreciate that their promise not
to offend again would be a worthless
promise. They do mo- know that their
nation is morally bankrupt; that the
word Of its overlords is no longer Of
the slightest value in the councils Of
civilization.
When they get ready to admit that
they cannot win and to offer to return
to the status quo they will expect their
enemies to accept those terms-in eff

advocating the acceptance of such an
offer.
