DOGS AND CATS ARE
EATEN IN BELGIUM
Former Almost a Luxury, Says
Prof. Carney Of Louvain,
Now in Washington.

Prof. Albert J. Carney Of the Uni.
7ersity Of Louvain, now attached to
the Belgian legation in Washington,
said that dog meat is almost luxury
in Belgium and that cats also are be-
ing slaughtered for the table. Old peo-
pie snd children are dying in large
numbers, and tuberculosis Is rapidly
spreading. Professor Carney says:
"Coffee is very scarce In Belgium
and is not obtainable under IS q

preserve, however. that kind Of food,
SO badly needed for the invallds, now
so numerous in Belgium, the works
Of rescue provide low.priced food for
the hens. Swiss Geese is obtainable
at So a pound. Chocolate sells ut 81 a
pound and cocoa at $3.50. Olive oil Is

"This situation has melted to the
discovery Of numerous substitutes. A
severe test has been applied to imita-
ton products and all that was harm.
full has been pitilessly excluded. What
Is more interesting to record is the
use Of, strawberry leaves instead Of
tobacco, of strip instead Of butter.
"AforeOver, oil kinds Of native fruits,
generally neglected. have now a mar
ket value. Dog roses bring 3 cents a
pound. wild hazel nuts cost 10 cents,
with prunes 2 cents, elderberries 4
cents, etc. The Germans have regu-
lated the exploitation Of acorns and
beechnuts. Of which they send great
quantities to Germany in order to ex.
tract oil from them.
"Thcy also have Communicated fat
cats in many places. Since tax OF
SO has been imposed BY them upon
dogs. the number Of those animals
which their owners have killed and
eaten is large. Dog meat is said to be
commonly used"

Smith presided 1T meeting OF the

In announcing the preventive Pro.

that the discovery resulted from Sc

from attacking him. While expert

(By Associated Press,1

Washington, Nov. 12.-Analysis of
the terms imposed upon Germany
shows them to be even more drastic
than those being enforced against
Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey. From
a military standpoint all of these
powers have been stripped even of
the means of defense.
The object sought-absolute pre-
vention of a recurrence OF hostilities
lis the same in each case, and in
general the same character Of con-
cessions were required, though in
Gernany's case there was no neces-
sity to provide for future campaigns

essentials even If the complete poll

= Navy PowerIess.
The strength of the German navy
has been cut away by the agreement
to surrender 100 submarines, six bat
tie cruisers and 10 battleships, 90
modern destroyers and many .otber
craft. At this single stroke Ger
many would lose virtually its whole
modern fleet The ships which re-
main are chiefly Of the pre-dreaa-
naught-days and other obsolete
types.
Il was noted by officers here that
Marshal Foch and his naval advisers
had not lost sight of the mutiny
within the German fleet and the pos
sibflfty that this might interfere with
the carrying out Of the armistlce
naval terms, The supplementary
conditions, authorizing occupation OF
Helgofand as an advanced base BY
the allies In case the specified ships
are not promptly surrendered, Is de-
signed to render the German fleet
harmless in any case and its destruc-

It was noted also with satisfac-

taken in the terms against the erec-
