TIRPITZ WOULD EXTEND
CONTROL INTO HOLLAND
Seizure of Belgium Would Be Step.
ping Stone, According to Former
German Minister of Marine.

By the Associpted Press
COPENHAGE%, October "a. - The
view OF Admiral Won Tirpitz. former
German minister of marine, that the
seizure of Belgium was the steppin g
stone in extending control over Hol-
land was proclaimed by Herr Bac-
meister. the national liberal leader in
the reiehstag and one Of the pan-Ger-
man stalwarts, in a speech delivered
Sunday at Hamburg. Quoting Won Tir-
pitz. Herr Bacmeister said:
TT We control the Belgian Goa st
then the Netherlands viii enter into
our concern. II England America re
tain the coast on their hands the Hol-
landers Will enter into their concern.
1t viii be recalled that the late Gen,
Won Kissing, governor general in Bel
gium in his memorandum on Belgium
also intimated the necessity ot extend
ing German sway over parts of Hol-
land in preparation for Germany's next
war.
Herr Bacmeister said Or. vou Beth

man chancellor. WAS responsible for
Convocation of the Austrian parlia =
ment. having advised the young en-
peror to take this step, which was the
cause of the spread of the peace senti-

Is that the days of Chancellor Michaelis
are numbered and that even the sacri-
fee of Vice Chancellor Helfferich Will
not satisfy the reichstag ajority. De-
spite denials there seems TO be real
substance in the report that some
reichstag leader will be made vice
chancellor. This would he a long step
toward actual decentralization.
The delay of the government in pre-
senting scheme for Prussian electoral
reform is making this question acute.
1t viii increase the pressure on the EN-
peror and force, speedier action as was
promised in The July p-ocla nation. Re

cate a decrease in peace hopes there.

Saws Kaiser Was Misled.

The German emperor had been led
by disloyal people in this country to
believe that America never would
fight" the Secretary of the Trea sury
continued ''and that any transgression
of our rights would be met simply BY
protests.
Had America submitted and kept her
ships off the seas. discord and discon
tent among Americans people would
have followed. Mr.. McAdoo said and
the German emperor by one stroke of
his pen would have accomplished more
destruction upon American farms. in
American factories and in American
business houses and to American in
terests all over this land than he could
accomplish with all the armies and
navies of the German empire"
After telling what stoppage OF Amer
fcan sea commerce would have meant
in loss to cotton growers of the south
and of Germany's efforts to involve
the United States with Japan and
Mexico through the Zimmerman in
trigue. the Secretary turned to ruthless
su ubma rine warfare and recfted the

Sale Of Red Cross Seals in Connecticut
Will Undoubtedly Reach Three Million

Reports to date which have been re-
seived by the State tuberculosis Conn.,
mission indicate that approximately
1900, 900 Red Cross Christmas Seals
were sold in Connecticut this past
season. There are still large num-
Der of reports to be received from local
agents and the Commission is eontid.
ent that the total sale will be con-
siderably over three million, which
would be n'increase of about 20 per
cent. over last year sale.
In 1914, the first year that the State
Tuberculosis Com mission took charge
of the sale of Red Cross.Seals, the net
sale was I,S00, 600 which was an in.
crease OF about so per cent. over The
previous; and in 1915 the sale amount
ed To 2 500, 900 an increase Of about 10
per cent. The net proceeds from the
sale of seals will be used by the various
organizations throughout The state Tor
tucerceu Iosis relief work in their re-
speclive towns and cities.
The State tuberculosis Commission
considers that the sale this year has
been especially grtIfying in view Of
the numerous other demands for as
sistance TO the suffering humanity in
Europe.
