keen political writer, and to-day Is con-
sidered an expert on foreign politics.
In his writings and public utterances he
SHARED neither the high nor the low. re
asasiled with unmerciful persistence the
HIGHEST and mightiest in the empire, scofed
at political parties or preached % them'
and criticised the weaknesses IN the
Kaiser's character-a thing which no one
else dared to do. The fearlessness of his
writings won for him not only fame, but
also the disagreeable acquaintance of the
public prosecutor. He was tried twice for
I6se-p,ojesfe and served two terms of I'M
nrisonment of six months each after beng
convicted.
His views during the present war, just
as before its outbreak, have always been
frank. In spite of the danger which
threatened him continually on account OF
his free utterances, he never hesi,ated to
say what he thought.
The soil of Germany is free, and her
armies are everywhere in the enemies ter
ritory." quotes THE Times" from one OF
Macmillan Harden's articles in Die
Zukunft." "but none of her enemies has
been disarmed, none of them seems near
collapse, and the mightiest of therl-Eng-
land-cannot honestly be said to have been
even seriously wounded. All of them be-
lieve Just as piously and sincerely as any
German in their victory, and are abso-
lutely determined to secure victory by all
possible means

rise in rank has been quite rapid. he
reached the grade of colonel in 1903.
During the war with Spain and the
Philippine Instruction General Crowder
served in the volunteer army, becoming a
brigadier general of volunteers. During
the Russo-Japanese War he was appointed
an observer with the japanese army. In
February. 1911, he became Judge Advocate
General of the army, with the rank OF
brigadier general.
Provost Marshal General Crowder IS
now approaching his fifty-ninth year. HIS
long experience in the service of the United
States government has rendered nm COM
petent to discharge the serious duties now
imposed upon him.

A Man with a Big Task

THE man upon whom rests the difficult
L task of preparing the United States
for the important role it is to play on the
European battlefelds is Provost Marshal
General Crowder.
He was born in Missouri and was grad
uated from the Military Academy in 1881.
He studied law in the University of Mis-
souri,, but did not enter the practice of the
law. Had he done so it is felt by many
that he would have won great distinction
in that field.
He entered the army, and in 1886 was
appointed first lieutenant. Since then his

the fitness of things. General Chang Hsun
would have made an excellent subject for a
biographical study by Carlyle. The Sage of
Chelsea would have delighted in the very
grimness of the man, and would have painted
his portrait in few strokes that would have
brought out the purposeful chin and the
deep-set eyes so well known to those who
have General Chang Hsuns personal &C
quaintance, and so Characteristic of the whole
temper and spirit of the man.

n a ANY missions from one or another
MI of the Entente Allies have come
A'A to our shores in the last few
months, each with a purpose not unlike
the other. But there arrived in this coun-
try last week group of ENJOYS from
suffering and stricken land whose objects
are different and whose message is one of
mourning. It's arrival was unheralded
and the reception at the Capitol simple;
but the interchange of greetings between
DR.. Basile Lucaciu, who heads the mission,
and Secretary Lansing was warm and
sympathetic. With DR.. Lucaciu were
Lieutenant V. Stocia and Johann Mota.
Rumania is the Belgium of 1917. The
commissioners have brought tale of the
nations suffering and endurance that is
nothing short of martyrdom. From the
moment the government at Bucharest devil
ated from policy of national hesitation
and cast in its lot with the cause of the
Entente last August, Rumania has been
undergoing the agony of Serbia and Bel
pium. 1t seemed a thousandfold more
horrible, for on all sides were the Bulgars
the Magyars, Turks and the Germans. In
the traitorous Russian high command
upon whose aid the Rumanians counted
when she launched her offensive, there
lurked a still deadlier enemy. Supplied
with defective ornaments and ammunition
and backed by an army the commanders
of which were Indifferent and disloyal, il
was no great wonder that the Rumanian
campaign was doomed 10 failure. The
Teutons were able to overrun a great part
Of the country and lay it waste. The
Rumanian army then was unprepared
though brave and determined.

ing the right of the press to mention
Rumanian valor or bravery on the battle
field.
"Rumanian battalions we're sent first
in line against the fire of the Russians,
and in back of them came the MagyarS.
During many a battle, when the Ruma-
rians were forced to retire the Magyars
in the back line would shoot down The
Rumanians in front of them. In many
villages Rumanians ranging in age from
sixteen to sixty were drafted for the
Hungarian army, whereas Magyars were
overlooked and left at home to lay waste
Rumanian villages"
The record of atrocious persecution Of
Rumanians in Hungary is voluminous
one. The Rumanian ENJOYS have brought
here the chronicles of a national tragedy
the grewsome climax of which is being
written while the nation bleeds white in
a struggle for its existence. Rumania,
which by reason Of its inherited Roman
tenacity was able to stem the onrush Of
the Turkish hordes for centuries, SER
vice that has saved European civilization
from being overwhelmed by the barba-
ran flood. is now crying to the world to
save it from the barbarians who to-day
are threatening its life.
The Book of
Sorrow
The ENJOYS have embodied the record
of their country's tragedy in a volume,
THE Book of Sorrow" This memorandum
they have inscribed and addressed to Presi-
dent Wilson, and it will be presented to
him this week Almost simultaneously
with this interchange of sympathies is the
reception given to our own General Hugh
l.. Scott and other military members of
our mission TO Russia in the Rumanian
Parliament last week. To the Rumanians
General Scott has promised cooperation
and assistance, and to him they nave
pledged the nations steadfastness in the
great world cause.
RumaDians are forming, even in the
CndOS OF war, tne STRUCTURE Oh lHe new
nation of their long delayed aspirations,
strong in the confidence that victory will
be for democracy and the small peoples.
The cruelty of the Iiapsburgs has re-
suited in a firmly fused and indissolu!ly
united nation of 100000 persons. Out
of the victory of the Entente Allies will
be born greater Rumana, a resusci-
tated, territorially compact and prosper
Gus state.
Rumana was for centuries a Romantic
island in a Slavic sea. Unified and re-
stored to its rightful photographic do
mains, Rumania no longer will need to
fear Magyar ruthlessness. The Slav no
more will be the menace of the Eastern
Latins, but their friend and ally Some
nation may take its place as the leader
among the group Of small states that will
arise as result Of the peace settlement
and it is by no means unlikely that Ru-
mania may become the predominant state
rot only in the Balkan Peninsula but in
Southeastern Europe. j. b. Ii.

Rumania' s Real
War Objects

There have been numerous versions of
Rumania's objects in entering the war.
Few have done full justice TO her. 1t
was said that she found herself in an
awkward dilemma and had to choose be-
tween going TO war or losing the position
of influence on the Balkan peninsula to
which she was entitled. To take part with
the Entente Allies, it was said was TO
stop the stream Of German gold that was
enrichng the country, whereas, Of course,
to 20 the other way was to commit Bull
garia's blunder. Bulgaria had parted with
her neutrality prematurely and had made
the wrong guess. Rumania had hers to
make. Was she going to make it, and if
so when? Such was the tone Of the
criticism Of Rumania's neutrality.
Rumana's hesitation was not due TO
any avowed apathy TO the causes Of the
war. She was not waiting 10 make the
guess" The commissioners now here ex-
plain that Rumania knew long before
1915 who her enemies were and where
her place in the world conflict would be.
Rumania entered the war 10 redeem the
principle Of nationality that had been
violated not only in the case Of other
peoples but in her own particular in
stance.

Her Reason Similar
To Americas

And this oppression, it is pointed out IN
an interview with the Rumanian ENJOYS,
far from being transitory and occasional.
far from being the result of the mistakes
or crimes of individual persons or rep
resentatives of the government, which
would have made it capable of repara-
ton, has been the direct consequence of
the methods pursued by the rulers of the
Dual Monarchy.
Rumania went to war to redeem the
100000 Rumanians suffering under
Magyar tyranny. Psychologically, her
reasons for taking up arms on the side
of the Entente Allies were not unlike those
of the United States.
There exists to-day, beyond the political
frontier of Rumania but contiguous to
it, territory Of more than $1,000 square
miles, Pennsylvania, inhabited by a peo-
pie Rumanian by nationality, language,
history and culture. For centuries they
were part of Rumania. After the in
vasion by the Magyars, the people of that
land were deprived of their natural
sovereignty and decreed vassals. AS
such they have remained until this present
day, being kept in the dark mists of a
medieval feudalism.
DR.. Lucaciu told of the crimes COM
mtted against the Rumanians of Hun
gary.
