AMERICAN IN CAGE.
z. ]. Purcell Fled Bandits by Br'blng
Guard.

A Pacific Port, May AFTER beng

of a fortune and hauled through the
interior of China in a cage In which
he was exhibited to the natives like
wild animal and from which he finally
escaped by bribing guard, {. ). Pur-
cell. an American railway engineer,

iecting him to all manner of humilia-
tions and hardships, including that of
being exhibited as a "freak." Kyle,
he said. was taken in custody by an
other bandit band but was rescued by
Chinese soldiers. Efforts to recover
the money failed, he said.

GERMAN FOOD SYSTEM.
Lack of Fats Reduces Birth Rate to
Appalling Extent.
A Paramount Picture

Germany's economic system is
breaking fast under the pressure.
Her great railroad lines are wear
ing down and the nation is unable to
divert steel from munitions and ord
nance work to reconstruct the roads.
The latest attempt to force Holland
to allow German transportation along
the canals was primarily to save the
weakening steam lines.
The German people are being de-
vitaliZed: tuberculosis has developed
alarmingly among children and grow
ing youth, and the birth-rate has
dropped off to an appalling degree
because the country is not getting
the normal food.
i,91%These-, facts%weze: male; public yes
4eriay at the Food Administration
following the reports circulated yes
;;terday that the Ukraine was not Civ
ing food to the Prussian cause. Some
@: the officials stamped the stories
merely as German propaganda and
pointed out that the Ukraine not only
has The richest soil in the world, but
now has under cultivation 80 per cent
of her agricultural lands. France,
most highly cultivated in the world,
has "a per cent titled.
Germany cannot be stravcd. out,
but the race can detericate, and IS de-
terioating fast from underfeeding,"
said T. H. Ellis, head of the Admin
istration.

APPROVAL OF DRAFT LAW.
Supreme Court Says Nation Has Right
to Enforce Service Anywhere.

Drafted men cannot prevent the
United States government from send
ing them overseas to fight, so the
United States Supreme Court decided
yesterday.
The court, in an opinion handed
down by Chief Justice White, over
ruled the appeal of Robert Cox, OF
Missouri, a conscientious objector at
Camp Funston.
At the same time the recent mo-
ton made by Cox to have Major
General Wood cited for contempt was
automatically lost.
The case yesterday differed from
any of the others touching on the
draft law that have been brought
to the Supreme Court. The case in
which Emma Goldman and others
were involved dealt with conspira-
cy to obstruct the law. Still other
cases dealt with the constitutionality
Of the law itself.
Cox's case questioned the right OF
the government to send drafted
man abroad, because of the constl-
tut.onal provision that milltiamen
shall not be sent out Of the country
unless volunteering to go.
The appellant held that, under this
provision, even though drafted, he
was not subject to service in France.
While the case was still on appeal
however, he was sent abroad, and
then his counsel strove to have Gen.
Wood cited for contempt on the
ground that Cox had been sent abroad
without notice to council.
Chief Justice White, in handing
down the opinion, said that the dra.t
act was not based upon the provision
in question, but upon provisions CIV
ing Congress the right to declare war
and raise armies-to take steps with
out limit"
