Germans Ask Liberty of Former
Empress.
Request Is Refused by Bolsheviki and
Brings Decision to Try
Royalty.
London, Jan. 21.-According to
a Petrograd dispatch to the
Daily News, King Ferdinand of
Roumania, whose arrest had
been ordered by the Bolsheviki
government, is now under the
protection of the Allies.

Petrograd, Jan. l9.-MaXim Gorky S
newspaper, Novoia Zhizn, asserts that
tho German delegates in Petrograd
asked the representatives of the gov
eminent commissioners to permit the
former empress and some other men,
bers of the late imperial household
related to Emperor William to travel
to Germany.
The request was not only categori.
cally refused but was the immediate
cause of decision to try the former
imperial personages.
A dangerous stage has arisen in the
relations between Roumania and the
Bolsheviki A two hours ultimatum
has been sent to the Roumanian mill
tary authorities by the revolutionary
committee of the Ninth Russian
army. demanding free passage OF
Russian troops through Jassy, the
temporary capital of Roumania.

Similar Programs of Demands
Laid Down with Previous
Consultation.
ALLIES need FIGHTERS
At Mercy of Most Cruel Military Au-
tocracy in History Unless Men Are
Willing to Die For Democracy
Cannon's Roar Only Foe Reply.

London, Jan 21--In addressing the
labor delegates Premier Lloyd George
said no man standing on the watch
tower could deny the urgency of the
need for raising more men.
The prime minister said no dem
ocracy has ever long survived the
failure of it's adherents to be ready
to die for it.
Aims Conform.
Lloyd George said he and President
Wilson, without previous consulta-
tion-there was no opportunity-had
laid down substantially the same de-
mands for the termination of war.
There was no man willing to make
peace without complete restoration Of
Belgium and reparation, the premier
said From Germany there had been
but one answer, he added, land it
came from Won Tirpitz's soul, New
err"
Hardly a Voice of Criticism.
Mr.. Lloyd George said lis and Pre-
sident Wilson's war aims had been
acclaimed throughout the Entente
Allied countries. There had been
hardly voice of criticism save from
a few who wished he had made more
extreme demands. The socialists of
France, Italy and Great Britain, he
said, had accepted them.
Germans Answer "Never"
The premier said that Germany
had answered Never" to his demand
for reconsideration of the wrong
of Alsace- Lorraine and had declared
that Germany would go on until Me
sopotamia and Palestine were re.
stored to the tyranny of the Turks.
No single war aims condition made
by the British trade unionists had
been answered by any German auxil-
larry, he added.
Must Go On Or Go Under"
Mr.. Lloyd George said there hao
been no answer from Germany to the
recent statements of the Entente
Powers on war aims.
"Why?" asked the premier, BE.
cause the Prussian military power is
dominant. Tie answer to be given
will be given from the cannon
mouth"
IF any man here can find an
honorable and equitable way out Of
this conflict without fighting it
through" the premier continued, let
him tell it. My conviction is this:
The people must either go ON or go
under"

bile at That Time.
New Issue of Indebtedness Certificates
Announced by McAdoo as
First Step.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Secretary
McAdoo has announced a new issue
of $400,000G00 treasury certificates

Subscriptions will be received by
Federal Reserve Banks at par and ac-
crued interest until January % and

first payment on the Third Liberty
Loan will be on or about April %, and
that if the same plan of installment
payments is maintained for the third
as for the second loan, the bond sell
ing campaign will be in March.
For the second loan the first pay
ment wa. made two weeks after the
close of the months campaign.
For the first time since the United
States started its big war financing

ceived simultaneously for two current
issues OF certificates, as an issue of So

sort called for by this order are in

Necessities for Action.
1T is absolutely necessary to get
the ships away, it is absolutely nee
essary to relieve the congestion at
the port and upon the railways, it is
absolutely necessary that our people
should be warmed in their homes If
nowhere else. and half way meas

desired end. II action such as this

limped along from day to day with a
slowly improving condition of affairs
with regard to the shipment of food
or coal, but without such Immediate
relief as has become absolutely nee
essary because of the congestions of
traffic which have been piling up for
the last few months.
Results Will Justify.
Il have every confidence that the
result of the action of this sort will
justify it and that the people of the
country will loyalty and periodically
respond to necessities of this kind
as they have to every other sacrifice
involved in the war. We are upon a
war footing and / am confident that
the people of the United States are
willing to observe tie same sort of
discipline that might be involved in
the actual conflict itself"

WORKERS WAIT ON WILSON
Ask Him To Take Over Great Meat
Packing Plants.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Chicago stock
yard employees have asked President
Wilson to take over the great packing
plants of the country.
A delegation OF labor leaders told
the President that conditions in the
plants are now intolerable, wages low
and treatment brutal. The workers
even offered to allow the President
to regulate their wages, hours and
general conditions.
Samuel Gompers, who accompanied
them, said afterward that the re-
quest for government control was
made as "a last resort" and that the
President would consider other meth
DDS of relieving the tense situation.

"Mrs. Black Cat was sitting in the

though she was summing herself she
looked very cross. Her forehead was
wrinkled and from time to time she
gave a low snarl which sounded as
though she were very angry.
Pretty soon Mrs. Gray Cat came
along.
"'Good morning. said Mrs. Gray Cat
politely.
"Its not good morning at ALL said
Mrs. Black Cat, and Mrs. Gray Cat
noticed that her back was raised high.
"1t's a bad morning, very bad
morning. continued Mrs. Black Cat.
"'The sun is shining and it's warm
on these steps, said Mrs. Gray. I
don't see at all how you can object to

down you can sit behind the kitchen
stove in your home, can't you? You

"'No, said Mrs. Gray. She didn't
know what else to say. Certainly she
knew it wasn't at all pleasant to feel

Mrs. Black was not angry with her.
