The truth is that something every body wants on his side when trouble comes. You may not be overly well acquainted with it before you need 1t, but that makes DO difference. Truth is the thing that lasts when oth- CT things vanish. -, Those who. know claim that truth is conformity, Of rep resentation to fact" There Is more or less of it in the world, It's prev alence depends upon the company you keep. In some circles men try to keep away from truth because they are aiming at unjust gains. Some throt- tie personal opinion to fawn before reputed greatness. They. are not con. cerned ahOut what tlrey are. It's what they want to be that keeps them think ing. And their thinking is purely of gain. To handle money. to exercise authority, to be looked upon as sue. cessful seems to be their chief goal. But If they only knew It the truth is the best way to attain 1t.

Against the unemployed In Belgium,
who are a burden to public charity,
In order to avoid friction arising there
from, compulsory measures are to be
adopted to make them work so far as
they are not voluntarily inclined to
work, in accordance with the regula-
ton issued May 15. 1915. by the gov
ernOr general. In order to ascertain
such persons the assistance OF the mu-
nicipal authorities Is required for the
district Of the governor general in
Brussels, while In the districts outside
Of the general government, |. e., In the
provinces Of Flanders, lists were de-
manded from the presidents of the
local relief committees containing the
names of persons receiving relief. For
the sake of establishing uniform pro-
cedure the competent authorities have,
In the meantime, been instructed to
make the necessary investigations re-
garding such persons also in Flanders
through the municipal authorities;
furthermore, presidents Of local relief
committees who may be detained for
having refused to furnish such LISTS
will be released"
Mr.. Grew pointed out that the depor.
tatiOns were a breach of faith and
would injure the German cause
abroad. In his official summary Of the
negotiations which he carried on he
says:
II then discussed In detail with the
under secretary of state for foreign af-
fairs the unfortunate impression which
this decision would make abroad, re-
minding him that the measures were
in principle contrary to the assurances
given to the ambassador by the chan
cellOr at general headquarters last
spring and dwelling on the effect which
the policy might have on England'S at
titude towards relief work in Belgium.
/ said / understood that the measures
had been promulgated solely by the
military government In Belgium and
that / thought the matter ought at
least to be brought to the chancellOr'S
personal attention in the light of the
consequences which the new policy
would entail. Herr Zimmerman inti-
mated In reply that the foreign office
had very little influence with the mill
tary authorities and that 1t was un-
likely that the new policy In Belgium
could be revoked. He stated, how
ever, In answer to my inquiry, that he
would not disapprOve of my seeing the
chancellor about the matter"
Solemn Protest by United States.
The formal protest Of the United
States was as follows:
"The government Of the United
States has learned with the greatest
concern and regret OF the policy Of the
German government to depOrt from
Belgium portion of the civilian pOpu-
lation with the result of forcing them
to labor In Germany, and Is constrained
to protest In friendly spirit but most
solemnly against this action which is
in cOntraventiOn of all precedent and
those humane principles Of interna-
ti0nal practice which have long been
accepted and followed by civilized ma
tiOns in their treatment Of nOncomba-
tants In conquered territory. Further
more, the government Of the United
States Is convinced that the effect of
this policy If pursued will In all prob
ability be fatal to the Belgian relief
work, so humanely planned so sue
cesSfully carried out, result which
