New York, March 4.-Driven to New

height Of feet 1-2 inches and a

Amsterdam, March A notion
that Mormon missionaries from

him to desertion is propagated by the
Lutheran Church Consistory for the
Province of Pomerania, which, ac-
cording to the Kreuz Zeitung, has
sent the following circular letter to

these sects calls itself variously the

object to military service.

war propaganda would seem to be at

QUEER IDEAS FOR INCREAS-
ING BIRTHRATE AND TO BREED
THE "GERMANIC SUPERMAN"
(By Associated Press.) J

lDy lCoo.J
Amsterdam. March 4-Circulation
in other belligerent countries of the
report that official recognition Of
polygamy had been given in Germany,
in order to fill up as quickly as pos
sible the tremendous gaps which the
war has made in the German army,
has aroused indignation in the Ger
man empire. This report is said to
have been mentioned in the British
House Of Commons by Arthur J. Bal
four, the British foreign minister, and
by Lord Robert Cecil, the British
minister of munitions.
In the religious weekly paper, DIE
CARISTLICHE WELT, Professor
Martin Rade declared recently that
polygamy is countenanced neither by
the German government nor by the
German people. He contends that sin.
gle pamphlets advocating a plurality
Of wives such as the one referred to
by Lord Robert Cecil, are the work OF
irresponsible persons" and should
not be taken seriously. Moreover,
Professor Rade holds that history has
shown that after all great wars, the
losses have been made good by nor
NAL marriages.
There seem to be, however, q good
many irresponsible persons" in Ger
many who hold queer ideas as to the
breeding of the future German. The
Berliner Tageblatt devotes an article
to them. It begins by saying that the
pamphlet quoted in the House of
Commons had no sort of official sane
tion and that, on the contrary, it was
quickly suppressed. The Tageblatt,
however, mentions the activities of
the Eden and Mittagsbund" move
ment and the, "Hammar Community"
whose ideas for increasing the birth
rate and to breed the "Germanic su-
perman" are regarded as distinctly
peculiar.
Then there is the German Society
for Regeneration" and the "Order of
the New Templars" which want to
maintain the balance of births as
against the fertility of the Semitic
races. Finally, a society named "Ari-
ana" frankly advocates free love.
None of these sects, the Tageblatt as
serts, is of any Importance. The pa
per further argues that the societies
only work on the theories of Darwin
and Gobineau-both of them non-Ger-
advocated selective
breeding of superior grade of hu-
man beings.

hut FIVE YEARS NEEDED
AFTER WAR TO RESTORE
FARMS AND INDUSTRIES In
FRANCE TO FORMER CAPACITY
(By Associated Press. }

Paris, March 2.-The damaged in
dustries and the upheaved and ex-
hausted farm land of France. It is
thought now, may be restored to
their full productive capacity within
five years after the conclusion of
peace, with the exception of denuded
forests and the most gravely wasted
land in the immediate proximity of
the line where the front has been
stationary for more than
three years.
These are some of the elements
upon which they count to make uo
fcr what France will have lost Con-
tinued and developed use of female
labor in industries; entrance OF
youths into active business ard in
dustry at an earlier age; greater ac-
tivity and consequent greater pro-
ductive capacity of all categories of
workers; and an enormous extension
of the use Of modern labor saving
equipment in the factory and on the
farm.
The development of water power
will contribute immensely to fill the
void in industrial facilities while five
years recruits of boys coming to age
for active participation in the coun-
try's affairs is expected to replace at
least third of the wastage in human
material.
