Belgian Calls Poisonous
Food Reports ''All Lies
M. Tranquil Cries Shame Against
Slanderers of Work Of Re-
lief Commission

PARIS, March 5.--Emil Tranquil,
member of the Belgian Cabinet and at
one time chairman of the Belgian Ma
tional Relief Committee. announced
to-day that he had sent the following
message to United States Senator
William NJ. Calder, at Washington:
81 am shocked by reports that you
have moved an investigation Of the
statement that some American food
was sent to Belgium and Northern
France in such bad condition that it
poisoned my countrymen. How could
such lies be received seriously?
During four years of German oc-
cupation |, myself, was head of the
organization which co0peratcd within
Belgium with the American Relief
Commission. ! have bad daily knowl-
edge of the quality, use and effect Of
the food which saved my nation and
the lives of the people in the occupied
parts of France | bitterly resent. and
my countrymen are filled with sorrow,
that responsible men should lend their
ears to detestable slandcr against
Americans who gave US four years of
their life, strength and talent | feel
that it would belittle their services to
deny the gossip, yet it is impossible to
let it pass.
"Thcreforc, for myself and for my
country, cmphatcaly protest against
this tissue of falschoods. Seven mil
lions of my countrymen and $500 900
inhabitants of Northern France are
alive, which is proof that none starved
and that none were poisoned. If /
should say more. it woull be to cry
shame against those few Americans
who would bosmirch the nobest thing
which came out of the war"
New-York tribune., 1919-03-06

At last she gave it up and stood silent
while her verbal assailants and defend
ers had it hot and heavy.
Il won't continue while those Boil
sheviki are SO noisy" she cried, at the
first opportunity.
This brought spasm Of cheers from
the orchestra seats that slenced the
galleries in sheer amazement. Nine.
Bres hkovsky started at once an attack
on the Bolsheviki, which invigorated
the galleries immensely, and DR.. Zhit-
lozsky, who had been striding voice
lessly up and down the stage implor-
ing silence by gestures, sent for the
police Several arrived and stationed
themselves whore their uniforms would
be conspicuous. Their ignorance of the
Russian language prevented them from
becoming self-conscious.
Y. Zcnzinof succeeded Nine Bresh-
kovsky. He was Vice p res ident of the
Omsk government, and his advent was
the signal for tremendous outburst
of disapproval from the galleries.
This, he proclaimed against the tumult,
was an example Of Bolshevism. The
galleries retorted, in elaborate words:
"You are the usurper-you who use
violence in office"

Negro Hero Makes
4 Speech at AIban,

4 LBANY, March 5.-Sergeant
IN Henry Johnson, the colored
hero of Colonel Hayward's famous
369th Regiment, made a plea for
the veterans of the world war this
afternoon before the Senate Judi
ciary Committee. He urged ia
vorable action on the Baumes bill,
giving veterans of the Spanish
American and world war prefer
ence in civil service appointments
and promotions.
"What are you going to do for
us boys who went over there?" he
asked. "Mighty few Of us came
back after doing our bit. Are you
going to take care Of us?"
Johnson killed four Germans
with bowie knife and captured
thirty or more others. He was
dressed in his uniform, resplendent
with medals, including the Croix
de Guerre, and leaned on a cane.
He made a two-minute speech,
which wound up the hearing.

Meeting to Further Cause
of Constituent Assembly
Is Marked by Disorder

Hurled Back and Forth
by Opposing Factions

The All Russian Directory, most Of
whose members are found in the rs
and VS., called meeting last night
at Carnegie Hall to further the cause
Of constituent assembly in Russia
The audience was about equally divid-
ed between moderates and radicals and
everybody enjoyed himself except the
speakers. There was no bloodshcd, be-
cause the radicals were in the two up
per galleries and the moderates mad
orchestra seats.
Members of the Omsk government,
which gave way to Kolchak, formed the
All Russian Directory. The meeting
was conducted entirely in Russian.
Even the names that were called were
Russian, and it was evident that a
fluent Russian has it over any other
nationality when it comes to name
calling.
The storm broke when DR.. Zhitloz-
Sky, the chairman, began to talk about
Nikolai Lenine. He hadn't really got
warmed up to the subject at that, but
the galleries got an inkling of what he
intended to say and tore loose with
their vocabularics. They wadded up
the hardest sort of syllables like snow
balls and flung them at DR.. Zhitlozsky
as easily as if they had been confetti.
Battle of Consonants
Back came the orchestra seats with
counter-roar that was half sneezc
and the battle was on. The galleries
called the orchestra seats bourgeoisie
and the orchestra seats called the
galleries Bolshcvik and mean little
epithets eight or ten syllablcs long
were flying thicker than influenza
germs.
DR.. Zhitlozsky shouted soundlesslv
for while about Lcnine but it was
like blowing tin trumpet at Niagara.
The galleries were cngrossed in pclt-
ing the orchestra with vtriolic
strcamers of words and the orchestra
seats were standing up, backs to the
stage and returning word for word.
Everybody but DR.. Zhitlozsky had lost
interest for the moment in Nikolai
Lcninc.

voice they assert that to abandon the
league of nations, with its European
responsibilities, now will be little less
than the abandonment of those who
died in Europe to establish American
ideals in the world No country could
deserve the admiration America re-
ceives in Europe to-day and no country
could afford to surrender that position
in the world which had been won for
it by devotion and achievement, by
unselfshness unparalleled in world
history; and to withdraw from Europe
now would be to sacrifice what seems
to be the greatest opportunity for
human service that has ever come

Monroe Doctrine Can Be
Excluded From League

What opposition to the league of
nations in its present form in America
means in Europe is therefore unmis-
taxable. Technical objections arising
out of danger to the Monroe Doctrine
or interference with our immigration
laws are unimportant to the European
mind. If it is desired by America, and
asked, both will be excluded from the
operation of the league of nations.
Any concession or amendment will be
made, except one. No nation, big or
little, will consent to the withdrawal
of America from Europe willingly. If
the league Of nations and the idea Of
the league Of nations collapse the
elements of hope will be withdrawn
from the European situation and the
people that have the great task of
reconstruction to undertake may yield
to despair. In sum, the simple fact is
that Europe has accepted Mr.. Wilson
as the spokesman OF America 1t has
welcomed him as no other public man
has ever been welcomed here before
he was the delegate of that America
whose services were in the minds and
hearts of millions of people. 1t has
to an incredible extent risked all it's
future hope upon Mr.. Wilson, not as
an individual, but as President of the
United States, and if the country repu-
dates what Mr.. Wilson has done here
for domestic or political reasons which
are wholly comprehensive to every
American, the European tragedy will
be stuncndous

Europe Dismayed by Fear
America May Desert Europe

To discriminate between Mr.. Wilson
al President of the United States and,
as such, the representative of his
country in Paris, and President Wilson,
leader of political party at home, was
a thing totally beyond the capacity of
the European peoples. To them Mr.
Wilson and the United States mean
the same thing, and cannot adequate
ly describe the degree of apprehension
and dismay which recent political
events in the United States have occa-
stoned. And this dismay arises pri-
marly out Of a feeling that America,
as a whole, may desert Europe, may
leave millions it has temporarily saved
10 permanent misery. The attack upon
President Wilson's league Of nations
formula seems to these peoples in
Europe an attack upon all that
America means to them, and this is
bound TO be so.
For the American in Europe the
attitude and sentiment expressed BY
the common people of oil the Allied
nations is thing which at once
awakens pride and humility. 1t is not

Ho1U Europe Estimated
Mr.. Wilson
By Frank III. Simonds

PARIS, March 3.-There is probably
no more difficult problem than the en-
deavor TO repi esent to Americans ac-
curately European views at the present
time on American political conditions.
Probably at no time since America
ton been to such an extent concen-
trated on American domestic politics,
and certainly not even in the period
before we entered the war were these
American political conditions less un-
derstood in Europe. AT bottom, this
failure accurately to appraise the situ
alton in America arises from the fact
that Europe has accepted Mr.. Wilson
without reservation as an authorized
and qualified spokesman of the whole
Of the United States. The will of
America, as it is understood here, is
what President Wilson says in the
Paris conference.
In English and French politics alike
any larger question of policy means
the fall of the ministry and q change
of political power. The fact that fol-
lowing President Wilson's defeat in
the November election there was no
change in America has been naturally
accepted here, where q knowledge of
our peculiar institutions is relatively
slight, as proof that only domestic
questions were involved in that cleo
tion and that the President remains
the spokesman for the American
people, with their complete approval
IN all foreign matters.
New-York tribune., 1919-03-06
Wilson Listened To as
Country's Spokesman

When President Wilson decided to
come TO Europe all the Allied nations
had in their turn to decide whether or
not the President should be received
as an ambassador of all America They
decided to accept him as such. They
have listened to every word that he
has spoken in matters of policy with
exactly that attention, that consider
alton which flows from an unqualified
acceptance of Mr.. Wilson in such a
role
Now it is essential to recognize what
the position of America in Europe is
to-day. American aid on the military
side is realized everywhere to have
been the decisive factor in winning
the war American contributions to
the feeding Of millions of people in
Belgium, in northern France, in east
ern and southern Europe, has meant
the difference between starvation and
existence. There are literally millions
of people alive in Europe who owe
their existence wholly to America.
For the future the little people of
the large countries and the people
large and small of the little countries
all turn their eyes toward America as
the one solid element of hope in a
world otherwise sombre and despairing.
Admiration, gratitude, hope all three
emotions flow from American service
in Europe. and President Wilson's well
come to Europe was a natural and
spontaneous expression on the part of
millions Of people of their feelings
toward the country that had saved
them in the past and to whom they
turn now for future deliverance.
