This man wns sentenced to serve II
days for talking back 10 his superior
officer. II surprised us all that he was
let OF so ensily.
But bitterness In the ranks grew,
and ut last the mnny hard p%unishments
that were pronounced crented 80 much
feeling that the soldiers refused to tie
any of their comrades.
We left Sugny the next morning and
n hour later crossed the Franco-Bel-
ginn border. Here again We were or

were forced by noncommIssloned off,

their entire supply OF tobacco for

Toward evening we marched on and
brought the howitzers to a new posi-
ton. from where the enemy's defenses
on the Mouse could be b%Ombnrded.
After n short march we encountered
and fought n French army northeast
OF Donchery. Only the enemy's renr

To II was given the duty Of covering

French armies over the Mouse. which
was done neal Donchery.
The few bridges left standing we're
not sufficient for the enemy to cross

result there developed In DOnchery n
terrible fight. The French made an
enormous effort. There was a terrible
slaughter as man fought against man.

ment may be attained, notably between
Norway and the United States. but
also between the other two Scandi-
navlan countries and America and her
allies.
Such agreements would make the
entire situation in Northern Europe
much more stable and would secure the
neutrality of those countries for the
rest Of the war, which consider to be
OF the very highest Importance. If the
neutrality OF the Scandinavian coun-
tries is disturbed, the whole situation

Socialists Demand Freedom
OF Action for All Colonies
nterAed Conference Insists hat Inhabitants of Captured
Places lave Voice at the Peace Parleys Re-
garding Their Own Countries

OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 25- A London
dispatch to the agency here of Rcu-
tcrs, Limited, transmits the text of
the COLONIES and dependencies clause
OF the war aims memorandum adopted d
by the Inter-Allcd Socialist Confer
cnce in London. The clause follows:
"The international Socialists have
always condemned the colonial policy
of capitalist governments. Without
ceasing to condemn it, this Inter-Allicd ID
conference nevertheless recognizes the
existence of a state of things of which
1T is obliged to take account.
"Ihe conference considers that 3
treaty of peace ought to secure to the
natives of all colonies and dependen-
c'es effective protection against the ex
cesses of capitalists colonialism. The
conference demands the concession Of
administrative autonomy for all rroups
or people that attain certain decree
OF civilization, and for all others pro
gfeSslvc participation in local govern
ment
Colonies To Be Considered
This conference is OF the opinion
that the return of colonies to their
prc-war possessors, or anyexchanges
and compensations which might be ef-
fected, should not impede the making
OF peace. Those colonies which have
been taken by conquest from any bel
llgerent must be made the subject of
special considerations at the peace
conference. at which the communities
in their neighborhood should be enti
tied to take part; but the clause in the
