"Whatever else the Kaiser may be-"
said he, "in Holland unquestionably
a right 70 determine the status of
aliens. There would be no difficulty
about inviting him to leave. There
would be no question of the legal
propriety of the issuance of such an
invitation. Any country in which the
Kaiser might seek refuge would be
fully justified, if it chose, to eXpel him
as an alien, dangerous to domestic
tranquility and a probable source of
plotting against the peace of other
states"
Whether the Kaiser could be direct
ly eXtradited By one of the Allied
powers, Mr.. Coudert was less certain.
He pointed out that most eStradition
treaties make an exception in the cases
of political offenders. Since it is as a
political offender that the Allies would
probably have to apply for him, if they
decided to adept tnat course, Mr..
Coudert felt that there might be room
for complications.
"On the other hand" he said, ''there
would be nothing to prevent Holland
from accediug to request from one
Of the Allied governments to surren-
der the person of the Kaiser Such
course has been followed in the case
OF common law criminals even where
no cxtradition treaties existed. And

Kaiser Without Haven if Allies
Act, Noted Lawyer Declares

II the recognized course of inter-
national procedure is followed by the
Dutch government the Kaiser, accord
ing to Frederic r. Coudert, well known
international lawyer, will be disarmed
and informed until the final ratification
of peace. He would thereupon be es-
corted to the border and returned to
the German vernment-whatever it
may be at that time--to do with as it
sees fit.
AT present" said Mr.. Coudert, "the
status Of the Kaiser is simply that of
n soldier of warning nation. For
although an armistice now exists, peace
has not been formally nor finally made
rs yet. Technically Germany is still
at war. Having been deposed from his
high Office, the Kaiser no longer pos
sesses any special ex-territorial privi-
leges, such as an ambassador may en-
joy. The international stipulations
providing for such cases are quite
clear. Such soldiers must be disarmed
and interned and kept in internment
until the consummation of peace. There
is precedent in the case of a group
of French soldiers after Sedan. Rather
, than surrender to the Germans, these
men made their way into Belgium
Belgium promptly disa-med and in
termed them and ultimately turned
them back to France"

Try Kaiser, Urges Gerard
Former Envoy Says England
Can Extradite Him

James W. Gerard, former Ambassa-
dor to Germany. reused the audience
at the Hippodrome to high pitch OF
excitement last night, when he declared
that the head of the House of Hohen-
zollern must face tribunal of justice
and answer for his crimes. Mr.. Gerard
was IN the orchestra with his wife and
spoke IN response to demands from all
parts of the house, when his identity
became known.
After picturing the Kaiser as a fugi-
tive in Holland, Mr. Gerard said:
There is a treaty between Holland
and England By which they can extra
dte the Kaiser, who has been indicted
in England, and try him before an
English court. i guess we know what
the verdict will be. When the hang
man drops the trap he will be doing
away with one Of the worlds creates t
murderers'
Mr.. Gerard led the audience in
three cheers for President Wilson.

Magazines Not
Taken at Library

Books, but not magazines now, are
accepted at the Fargo public library
for shipment to the soldiers canton
ments. 1t was found necessary to
discontinue receiving magazines
there because OF the considerable cost
OF freight charges on them, and all
who wish to forward magazines to
the soldiers should do so by taking
them to the postoffice and attaching
a one-cent stamp to each magazine.
soldiers are reaching the library ev-
cry day, and the spirit Of sacrifice on
the part of the givers is evidenced
by the fact that they are mostly Of
the best bindings and in many cases
new. The class Of read
ing matter included in these books is
excellent, and is a source Of much
qualification to all concerned.

"Children's Year" Work to Start
As Near April 8 As Is Possible

effort.
Weighing and Measuring.
THE work OF Children's Year is to
commence with a weighing and
measuring OF all children OF pre-
school age. This is to start as near
April as possible and be concluded
in so days. The Federal Children's
bureau will provide a card which will
be arranged in duplicate. When fill
ed out, half will be sent to the Chill
dTen's bureau and the other half kept
by the parents. At the close of this
period. or the first six days in June,
Baby week will be observed.
North Dakota 10 Late.
This letter is an appeal to every
doctor, nurse and to every woman's
organization, to every patriotic citi-
zen to take part in this great work.
This is a patriotic service. We are
asking for volunteers in service in
many kinds Of work. The Woman's
committee OF the Council OF National
Defense is late I'm getting started in
North Dakota. There are just three
weeks in which to organize the state
in order to carry out the plan Of the
government in this Child Saving
campaign. This organization will
mean a chairman in each county in
the state, and a local chairman for
each community. Let me urge all
patriotic North Dakotans who
possibly can, to offer themselves for
volunteer service to the chairman OF
this division.
Our state is late in getting start
ed: let 1t not be said OF us that we
failed to measure up TO other states
in our cooperation with the govern
ment in this service. which takes
rank with the Red Cross, Liberty
Loan and Conservation work. We
must keep pace with the foreign
who realize that volunteer
work for the nations welfare Is OF
FIRST importance"
