DUTY OF ALLIES
Intcrvention in Force in

Entente Statesmen.
NECESSARY TO PEACE
France Especially Hopes to

Paris, Dec. 90.
4 No fixed order in which the main
topics will be taken up in the peace
prelifninaries has been determined,
but It Is the desire of the French that
when such a sequence and grouping
are arranged the matter Of interven-
ton IN Russia shall be made prac.
tically a coordinate question with that
OF fixing Germany's eastern boun,
daries.
That there must be Intervention in
force TO end Bo,shevism is the opin.
ion OF EuropeCr. and Entente states.
men; because otherwise, they say,
there will be no eastern barrier to
prevent Teutc mic expansion. Their
hope Is that President Wilson will
eventually taEe the same view of the
matter. They don't consider Bolshe-
vism as plerely an internal Russian
matter nor even one confined to
Europe, but is a problem for both
Europe and America to solve together.
The only dissenting note here is that
of the Socialists, who denounce every
plan Of Intervention as a subterfuge
TO restore the old regime in Russia.
This is one of the main points on
which the French Socialists claim to
be more in accord with President viii.
son than any other group in Europe.
Except for the Socialists France is
keen for Intervention. This is in part
due to sentiment, as she would like
to rescue her old ally from anarchy,
hut chiefly due to a sense of self
preservation. For 1t is the mistaken
belief of French statesmen that the
menace of Germany will not be
avoided II that country has to the east
Of her a weak, helpless Russia. When
holders OF this opinion are asked what
Is necessary in terms of number OF
troops they don't pretend to know, but
reply that no matter how many troops
are needed they must be sent by all
the nations which Joined in defeating
Germany.

The other half live on the industries
for which all materials have to be

so-cnlled Polish districts, which in real-

'sThen comes the question OF tndemni-

ruin will face us and there VIII be a
great tide Of emigration, probably to

dreadful and the result will be the Bal
kanization OF Europe.
'-The disappearance OF Germany from
a position of Importance will be the most
dangerous fact in history. sooner or
later the eastern Powers will press on

Turning 70 the food question, Doctor
Rathenau said:
Germany has been hungry for three
years, but Is not yet starving. every
body who sees Germany Will say that
she is not starving now. and that Is per-
fectly true. But " you talk Of provisions
to be found in Germany you must say
truthfllly that they will be exhausted In
two months: and II you walt until then
to send food II will be too late, because
10, ooo, 600 people cannot be fed as easily
as, say, 1000, 900 Belgians. Ships are the
greatest factor in feeding Germany"
1T the Allies don't send food within
two months, what will happen the cor
respondent asked.
tiRiots and sickness" was the reply.
Doctor Rathenau said that he had seen
the damage done in Belgium and north
ern France, and his estimate Of the in

TWO SISTERS

Apply For Registration Under
Female Alien Law. Ruling
From Washington.

Two Sisters of the Convent of Notre
Dame, who come under the law of
female aliens applied yesterday at the
office of registration, police headquar-
tiers, Duke of Gloucester street.
They brought with them the requir-
ed photographs which, however, were
taken with the head covering of their
religious sect AS the law specifies
that the pictures of female aliens must
be photographed without hats or head
covering, the Sisters were rejected.
However, the authorities at Wash
ington have declared the members of
religious sects can keep heads COW
cred"
The following is a dispatch from
Washington:
The Department of Justice has
recognized the claims of many re-
ligious sects which make it imperative
for female members to wear a head
dress, and in registering female Ger
man aliens has permitted the regis
trans to keep their heads covered in
posing for the photograph on their
Identification card. All United States
Marshals have been notified that
where such a regulation is prescribed
by any members of any religious COM
munity or denomination, the wearing
of the headdress as part of the habit
will be permitted in taking the photo

MISSIONARY CIRCLE
HOLDS MEETING.
Organization Of College Avenue
Baptist Church Discusses
Mission Work.

The Missionary Cirlce of the Col
lege Avenue Baptist Church was en-
tertained at the lovely home of Mrs.
Geo b. Turner, OF Wardour, on Tues
day evening, June 18th. A very en-
joyable evening was spent, as the
president, Mrs John S. Sewers, had
shortly returned from the Northern
Baptist Convention held Il Atlantic
City and she came prepared 10 give a
splendid account of what she bad
seen and heard
Especially did she earnestly present
the message OF the stricken people
of Northern France as told by one OF
the French Pastors who attended the
convention. Their cry has not come
10 as in vain, nor will we be content
10 indulge in idle pastime while the
worlds needs are SO great" she said.
The Circle also took up the thought
of what can be done to Americanize
and present the real love and Chris
tian fellowship 10 the immigrant
within our gates" The attendance
was large and enthusiastic and three
new members were added to the
Circle
Another matter worthy of mention
was the heavy shower which came up
and prevented having the meeting on
the lawn as had been planned. But
the farmers need the rain and the
Circle THANKED God for sending it.
Refreshments were then served,
after which the Circle adjourned, to
meet again on the third Tuesday of
july at tue home OF Mrs. f. l.. Ban
sum- They want especially to empha-
size the fact that their meeting to-
gether is to catch the vision of the
real service to others, which makes
the true Christian spirit
They fear the word mission means
so little 10 the average Christian and
yet il should mean tremendous under
takings, feeling responsibilities more
sincerely Certainly all can feel that
the present conditions are largely
owing to the laxity on the part of
Christians to be true followers OF
their Master. Let each and every
member of this Mission Circle be
aroused to their utmost Then viii
they truly be doing great work for
His Kingdom.

TODAY is LONGEST
DAY IN THE YEAR.

Today, June 81, is the longest day in
the year. After today the days begin
to shorten, at first imperceptibly. To-
day is said to be the real beginning
of summer, but it is a misnomer in
these parts, and not very summerish
with the mercury hugging the sixty
mark in the tube at the main gate,
Naval Academy, at A. NJ. AT other
parts of town it was said to be 81 de-
grees at z o'clock this morning.
There is a longer period of daylight
and sunshine today than on any other
day in the year. Tomorrow and after
the days shorten by a few minutes
each day.
The weather has been unusually
cool for the past week, and sleeping
under blankets has been comfortable
nights.
