Women Of Europe Waste
No Sympathy on Germans

Women of Europe are wasting no
sympathy upon the German women
who showed no pity when their sis
ters were suffering in Belgium,
France and elsewhere.
A telegram from Paris transmits
the the following excerpt from
the reply of the national council
of French women to the appeal of
German women:
why should we intervene to-day
against conditions which have but
one object, to render impossible the
recommending of the war? Our
pity is first for the innocent vic
Tins; for our wretched prisoners
whose number has been so sadly re-
duced owing to typhus and famine;
for our reconquered populations,
troubled and ill-treated with such
hatred. Let German women re-
member and they will understand
our silence"
According to Paris advices the ma
,tional council of French women has
declined to intercede with the
French Government to migrate the
terms of the German armistice. In
reply to q message published in the
HANot' AApiAA WOilGll W MA
dame Jules Sigfried. president of the
council. the council unanimously
adopted this resolution:
No. We will not intercede with
our Government to migrate the con-
ditions of the armistice, which are
only too justified by the manner in
which Germany has waged war.
In the course of these tragic
years German women, believing VIC
tory was certain, remained silent at
the crimes of their Government,
their army and their navy.
AT the congress at The Hague to
which we refused to go, the presi-
dent of the national council of Ger
man women was invited to protest
against the violation of Belgium and
against the torpedoing of the Lusi-
taia. She wrote in reply:
1--WE are at one with our people.
The men who took the responsible
ty for Germany's decisions are as
dear to us as those who are shedding
their blood for us on the battlefield

SOCIALISTS FEEL
WRATH OF YANKEE
FRIENDS OF FLAG
Rush Meeting in Madison Square Gdrden Square Fills With
Yelling. Running Fighting Men; Mounted Police
Called to Queu Rioting in NelD York

/ a half mile north and south of
Twenty-sixth street pursued by
shouting uniformed men. Most of
them were hatless and coatless, hav-
ing lost the major part of their gar
ments in the scuffie.
When they went to the meeting
the men. almost without exception,
wore red neckties because the red
flags they revere were under the
official ban. These red ties were the
special mark of the soldiers and
sailors. After the battle they were
cherished souvenirs. Anything red
reused the wrath OF the military men
and they promptly pursued 1t.
Hundreds of the Socialists were
badly beaten up but so far as could
be learned none was seriously hurt.
The soldiers and sailors evidently
had no intention of doing more than
take few "wallops" at those who
attended the meeting. Their enthu-
siasm in this direction led them,
however, to assail numerous by
ISLANDERS who had not attended the
meeting and who merely were
watching what was going on.

to blame the uniformed men for the
trouble. They declared the meeting
would have proceeded peacefully
enough, in spite of the more or
less explosive speeches, had it not
been for the soldiers and sailors.
They were the ones who started the
attack, the officers asserted.
The police had the situation well
in hand within half an hour after
the close of the meeting and The
streets had been cleared except of
stragglers. There were no more
Socialists to be seen.
Two resolutions were adopted at
the meeting. The first endorsed
"the plan of action suggested by
organized labor bodies on the Paci-
fic coast to prevent Tom Mooney
from hanging. The second extend
ed our fraternal greetings to the
Socialists of Germany" protested
against armed intervention 'in the
internal affairs of the German peo-
ple," demanded the return of Amer
lean and allied troops from Russian
territory and pledged the audience
to work with devotion and fervor
until the industrial republic of
America takes its place among the
industrially free nations of the
world"

New York, Nov. 26.-At the close
of a Socialist meeting. in Madison
Square Garden last night, which
threatened from the moment it be-
gan to break into riot. hundreds of
soldiers, sailors and marines broke
through q Gordon of police and at
tackled the Socialists. Men and wo-
men leaving the hall broke and fled
as the men in uniform charged past
the police, but were pursued into the
side streets in all directions. Soldiers
and sailors fought their way past
swinging night sticks and attacked
the Socialists who had packed the
building.
The meeting had been called os-
tensibly to protest against the exc
cution of Thomas j. Mooney, but
Scott Nearing, who presided, and
the other speakers devoted most of
their attention to pleas for the re-
lease of political offenders. Several
men and women were arrested for
displaying red flags smuggled into
the garden in defiance of an edict
by Mayor Hylan.
Rush Made For Safety
When the doors were opened at
the close of the meeting and the
Socialists realized the danger threat
ening them, there was a rush for
safety and almost instantly the
square was filled with yelling, run
ming, fighting men. The screams of
frightened women, most of them
wearing red roses or carnations in
lieu of the forbidden flags. rose
above the din as they clawed and
scratched the soldiers and sailors
who were pummehng the male So
cialists. ..
Mounted police. reinforced by au-
tomobile loads of reserves rushed
from every stationhouse within a ra-
dius of miles. struggled valiantly to
clear the square butmade little prog
ress. Soldiers and sailors, thoroughly
angered by what they considered an
insidious attack on the flag they
had sworn to defend, paid little
attention to blows from night sticks.
They were bent on getting revenge
from the internationalists and many
of them succeeded.
The square was cleared of milling
men only when Socialists by ones
and twos and in groups broke and
fed. The scrimmage in the park
then was transferred on a smaller
scale into every neighboring street.

Groups of Socialists soon were

QUESTIONNARES
READY TO GO OUT
State Authorities Prepare the
List For the Teachers to
Report on Orphans

The committee appointed last
week by Dr. B. Franklin Roger, Act
ing Commissioner of Health to col
leet information for the Common
wealth regarding the number OF
children made orphans by the recent
epidemic of influenza has prepared
QUESTIONABLE which will be fflled
out by school teachers throughout
the state who will furnish large
part of the necessary data.
The committee expects to hold q
conference in Harrisburg this week
and the questionnaires will be sup
piled to teachers of every one room
school throughout the state. They
will be sent out the latter part OF
the week in time to reach the vari-
Gus school districts Immediately af-
ter the Thanksgiving holidays.
In the meantime a special effort
is being made by various benevolent
and relief organizations to secure
complete information in the fargeT
cities regarding the number of child
rem who have become dependent
orphans because of the recent cpl
demic. The work is necessarily slow
on account of the difficulty en-
countered in securing complete in
formation but IL is DelleVed Ihat the
state will have a detailed report
covering the exact number of Or
phans and their final disposition by
the middle of December.
The influenza epidemic seems to
have taken a fresh grip upon Johns
town, Erie and New Castle accord
ing to reports received by the State
Department of Health. Many new
cases are reported in each of these
cities and large number of deaths
was also reported. Conditions are
not showing any marked improve
ment in Allegheny county or in the
city of Pittsburgh. In Pittsburgh
there were 80 deaths from influenza
and pneumonia during the 4S-hour
period up to noon.
Despite wild rumors to the con-
trary conditions throughout Fayette
county are improving and a fewer
number of cases is also reported
from Wilkes-Barre, Uniontown and
Allentown. The total number of
deaths reported throughout the
state during the 4S-hour period up
to noon yesterday from influenza
and pneumonia is sos making 4
total number of deaths from these
causes since October l, 44,690.

Our Federal Food Laws

The United States Government
has established a Federal Food Adj
ministration to supervise the pro-
duction, sale and consumption of
food stuffs. This department is I'M
der the supervision of Mr.. Herbert
Hoover. Federal Food Administra-
tors have been named for every
State in the Union and have been, or
will be named for every county.
l have been drafted for service as
Federal Food Administrator for
Dorchester county. I am serving
without compensation, having under
taken the service in the spirit that
all should do all they can to help
win the war.
The general purpose of the Fed
eral Food Administration is to pro-
tect the American consumer and to
conserve food for our Allies.
The duties of the Federal Food
Administrator for Dorchester county
primarily are to protect the Dorches-
ter public. 1t is hoped and expec-
ted that Dorchester Gamers, millers,
merchants and public generally will
observe the regulations of the Fed
eral Food Administration as pub
lished in the press from time to
time. Any persons failing to OBJ
serve these regulations are not pa
triotic citizens.
1t already has been reported to
this Office that some Dorchester
county millers are failing to observe
their instructions in the sale of flour
and feed, and that several merchants
are selling flour to customers with
out requiring the purchase of cereal
substitutes. These complaints are
being investigated. Any person
knowing of any violations of the
law will be doing patriotic duty by
communicating to me.
