GERMAN PEACE IN RUMANlA IS
 A NIGHTMARE

LONDON, Sept. Correspond encc of the Associated Press) What a German peace is like" is the head ing of an article written for the Week ly Dispatch by Annie Parr, who has just arrived in London from Buchar- est
 'I was in Bucharest when the Ger mans entered the Rumanian capital" she writes. They had evidently de. cided that it would not be wise to shock the world with another Belgium and they were careful to keep their troops under control, but they were the masters I remember male friend of mine who was returning home from dinner in evening clothes being stop ped in the streets in the middle of the winter and compelled to sweep away the snow for hours in the bitter cold

Priests in Prison for Refusing to
 Give Up Bells

ZURICH, Oct. s. - Several Polish Roman Catholic priests. together with leading members of their congrega- tions. have been imprisoned by the Germans because they concealed their church bells to prevent their confisca- tion by the German military author itics, Warsaw papers report. None nf the prisoners have been brought to trial. They were merely told thai they would have to remain in jail un. til the bells were found
 Some years ago Paderewski, the pianist. gave a magnificent bell to the church at kansna This the Austrians have requisitioned to the intense in dignation of the parishoners.

by the Bulgarians, and the sufferings of the prisoners they took were un- speakable. Of 30,000 Rumanians talk en prisoners only 5000 returned, and they were in an appalling condition. They were skeletons, scarcely able to walk. At the station they seemed too weak to eat or drink. When we offered them food they simply sank down onto bench and burst into tears.
 Tt was a most tragic home coming for the Rumanian soldiers, following upon the crushing peace terms. It has left on my mind an unforgettable i'm pression of what q German peace is like Those soldiers came back in rags and half starved to homes that had been reduced to poverty. They had to witness in silence tn" insOlont bearing of the German soldiery in their streets. The officers were told they would either have to salute the German officers or take off their uni forms. They preferred to take off their uniforms.
 There are still plenty of German soldiers there looking fat and well and at no pains to conceal their satis- faction at the conclusion of a peace which has put crushing economic burden on Rumania and bound the country and it's trade hand and foot to the Germans. The one hope of the people is an allied victory"

CONCERNING EXEMPTIONS

When the selective draft law
was passed and the government
began the mobilization Of an army
many We're the predictions that
it would meet with bitter opposi-
ton from the people.
Members Of Congress even were
heard to remark that they would
not choose between being a con
script and being convict. But
contrary to all such gloomy views
the work has been going smoothly
on and the people have quietly
adapted themselves to the laws
requirements, till now the calling
OF men under its provisions is re-
garded as a mere matter Of corse.
The selective draft law is a
signal victory for sound govern
ment. It recognizes the fund
amental fact that man owes a
debt to government, and is bound
to pay that debt on demand that
there can be no exemption so
long as the man himself is physi1
cally and mentally fit to pay.
Nothing but physical or mental
unfltness can exempt any man
from the obligation.
But isn't there future obi
cation resting upon the benefici-
aries Of government Is life and
personal service all Of the debt
Getting down to the grist OF
the question, if the government
has the right to demand the ser
vices Of your son, has it not the
right to demand the services O.
your dollars as well? Is prop
erty more sacred in the eyes 0:
the law than life? Life and per
sonal service alone can never VIII

up and sustained by the none,

means Of sustenance 2.

means Of sustenance
Before many more months OF
this war have passed, the people
Of this country are going to be
rudely aroused to the fact that,
viewed nthe light Of justice and
right, nothing should be exempt.
Life is the most sacred OF our
possessions. Yet life is demand
ed by our government, and we
see no injustice in the demand.
But as soon as our precious dol
lars are demanded we raise a
holy howl.
Our government is fighting for
it's existence. The life and death
struggle is now going on, and
shall any citizen Of this govern
ment dare to claim that his coun-
try has not the right to his last
dollar if that should be needed to
insure victory?
SO long as the bond issues Of
the government are readily sub
scribed, however, indications are
that that means will be taken to
finance the war. Should these
issues fail Of subscription the
real test as to the ultimate author
ity Of government will come.
