WAR WORK FOR WOMEN

Approximately 10000 women
have been placed in positions thru
the Federal Employment Service
since February 1, according to Mrs.
Hilda Muhlhauser Richards, chief OF
the woman's division. This figure
is based on reports turned in by
federal employment offices and
their cooperative agencies for Feb
ruary and March.
Munition factories received the
greatest number of the woman
workers supplied by the federal ser
vice, the reports show. The ma
jority of women applying for en-
ployment ask for work in the war
industries. Nearly every city in
the country, it is stated, reports
difficulty in obtaining women TOR
homework and other branches OF
domestic service.

"were approximately $12,OOO,OOO,-
900 in 1913, while the total imports
and exports of Germany and Aus
tria-Hungary wer only half as large,
or about S6,0OO,OOO,OOO. This sum-
mary is conclusive in showing how
overwhelming the economic power
of the present League of Nations,
fighting for civilization, would be.
"That economic force, resting on
preponderance of the worlds ba-
sic materials for war, could be ap-
piled through all the agencies OF
the modern world-the cable, the
wirless, the postal union, the stock
exchange, the custom house, the
trade embargo-and it is difficult
to see how any nation would be able
to withstand it."

ENFORCED PEACE

vention under the auspices of the

reach out at once for one of the
great fruits of victory, a league of

two thirds; of cotton and petroleum
four-fifths of the world supply; of
the essential food products a pre-

The work of the Exemption Board
of Nenana is progressing very salts
factorily, and as the present men,

sity for change in the personnel of
the organization.
Apropos of the work done under
the selective service regulations, Mr..
Cronin had the following remarks
to make regarding registration in
Minnesota:
'It should inspire the heart of
every American citizen with renew
ed courage and devotion to his coun-
! try, to read sundry paragraphs con-
tanned in letters received by the
local Exemption Board of Nenana.
One such letter from the president
of a local board in Minnesota, in

are indeed awakening to the stern
and patriotic duty to fight this
war to certain victory for Democ-
racy and New Freedom
w. o. Baggans, president of the
Minnesota board, informs us, that
, "One can but wonder at the great
and almost startling change that
has come over the minds and hearts
of the American people in the past
twelve months" Speaking for his
state, he says: "The young men OF
Minnesota are responding to the
call of their country, not only with
willingness, but with the greatest
enthusiasm. The farmers are Civ
ing their money, and the wives anc
mothers are offering the dearest
possessions they have in the world
they are bidding their sturdy sons
God-speed in the cause that should
dwell close to the heart of every

claims, ''be called a Stacker in wal

Justice in German Courts

For one of our Anglo-Saxon race and legal traditions to understand conditions in Belgium during the German occu- pation,'' writes Brand Whtlock in Everybody's. ''it is necessary to banish resolutely from the mind every concep tion of right We have inherited from our ancestors.
 sopnsible and brutal nature I have tried to convey some notion, were mere in quistorial bodies, guided by no principle save that of interest in their own bloody nature. Before them the accused had literally no rights, not even to present a defense, and if he was permitted to speak in his own behalf it was only as a gen. erous and liberal favor.
 'The defense was not defense in our meaning of the word. The lawyer was not allowed to see his client before he appeared to plead the case before the court where the accused was arraigned for trial and he was not permitted to speak to his client during the trial; often he did not know what the accusation was until the trial began, and sometimes
 he did not know it even then.
 .'The court would admit hearsay, pre- sumptions and conclusions, and infer ences and innuendoes, so long as they were on behalf of the prosecution; there was no cross-examination, sometimes even no interrogatory on the part of the presiding judge. The accused was some times allowed to present a defense, but 1t was generally only such as he might contrive in sparring with the judges il they questioned him. He had no proces. | for witnesses in his own behalf, ant no right to have them heard even wher l they were Willing to appear

PRESIDENTS COURSE AGAIN CRITICIZED BY SENATOR LODGE
Hitchcock Says Note Logi- cal Climax to Correspon- dence and Will Cause
 Political Revolution

Washington, october -Disapproval of President Wilson's course in continuing the discussions with the German gov ernment and in transmitting. the request for an armistice and peace to the allied governments was voiced tonight by Sen ator Lodge of Massachusetts. the re- publican leader in the Senate. Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska approved the Presidents reply, saying it would ere. ate q political crisis in Germany.
 "The President" said Senator Lodge says in his last sentence that if We must deal with the military masters and autocrats of Germany we must demand not peace negotiations but surrender With this I am in full accord. as I was with the Presidents statement of Sep tenn 2. In the first paragraph the Presi- dent says that as the present German government, which as all the world knows, Is controlled by the Kaiser and the military party, represents through it's ministers the majority of the Reichs tag and an overwhelming majority of the German people feels that he cannot de- clined to take up with the allied gov ernments the question of an armistice. With this I am not in accord, for the German government described in the first paragraph and that described in the last sentence are one and the same.
 My own view is a very simple one. There is no German government in ex- stence with which I would discuss any thing. deplore at this stage. when we are advancing steadily to a complete victory, any discussion or exchange of notes with the German government The only thing now, is to demand uncondi- tional surrender. ] would leave that to Marshal Foch and the generals of the armies. When the report that the Ger man army has surrendered and ceased to exist as an army in being, then and not until then let the allies and the United States meet and agree what terms they will impose on Germany to in- sure the safety of civilization and man. kind"
 Senator Hitchcock made this state ment:
 Tn this note the President reaches a logical climax to his correspondence with Germany. He places squarely up to the people of Germany the issue of demo- cratizing their government and being accorded a peace of justice, or holding on to their military autocracy and sub- hitting to an unconditional surrender In my opinion his note will create poit- ical crisis in Germany. I believe the American people will fully indorse the firm stand he has taken and it is very evident that the allied nations are giving him their support An armistce does not seem to be probable for sometime to come under the circumstances"
