APPORTIONlNG ALSACE-LORRAlNE

According to fragmentary information which has es-
capped the German censor the attitude of the German
chancellor in declining to make statements meeting the
views Of either the Socialists or the Conservatives in the
reischstag was due to a stiffening Of his spine by support
which he had purchased by entering into an agreement:
for the partitoning of Alsace-Iorraine between Prussia
and Bavaria. With this sop to those to whom he looked
for support he felt able to ignore the demands coming
from other quarters.
The German government regards these annexed
French provinces as a part of Germany. in which 1t diff
fers materially from the French government, the French
people. and the inhabitants Of the provinces. 1t is some
thing rather new. therefore. that is presented in this
proposal Of the chancellor's. backed up, 1t is said. by the
kaiser. According to the German view German territory
10 to be apportioned between German states in order to
cement allegiance of Germans to the German govern
ment. ....,H
The proposal to annex these provinces to German
states Ii not new, however. In 1912 the kaiser, buster
ing at the mayor Of strassburg, declaring petulantly that
as a punishment for the irreconcilable attitude of the
Alsatians he would annex the province to Prussia.
Even that did not terrify the Alsatians, who have
kept right on being Frenchnen, to the best of their abil-
ity. ever since, as they had been before. The case Of these
provinces is one Of the most impressive that has ever been
presented. Torn from the nation to which they owed
their allegiance. deprived of all but shadowy rights of
self government, prohibited from the use Of their own
language, their own customs, or control over the educa-
ton of their children, they have still gone on for forty
stx years being Frenchmen in soul and spirit, and all the
oppression which they have suffered has failed to make
anything else Of them.
Another dark touch has been added to the Kaisers
prospects. Liberia has Joined the Allies

TEN DAYS OF GRACE
ALLOWED TAXPAYERS
TO u. S. TREASURY

John F. Haley, collector of internal
revenue, today called attention to the
fact that just 10 days remain in which
corporations, individuals and with
holding agents may pay income taxes.
Formerly, said Haley, these taxes
were due on June 80, but now the date
stands at June IS. Though there has
been a splendid response to the call
for tax money since the declaration Of
war, a few-probably 200-are still
unpaid.
