ment has been effectively, II not
completely, arrested through the en-
actment of the state freeholders' law.
In Denmark az well as in many
other countries there has always been
who made their living by doing day
labor for the farmers at small wages,
or served as regular hired men. The
ambition to, own a home and a few
acres of land has always been strong
with the un-propertied Danish peas
ant, and in 1899 new legislation made
it possible for this ambition to be
realized.
In March Of that year the "stats-
h~uspandslov'' was enacted by the
Rigsdag; briefly described, it is an al
lotment law which in some respects
is similar to the British small holdings
act Of 1892. The law enables the
agricultural laborer who ! works for
others, to become the owner Of a
small tract OF land by the aid Of loans
from the government. =
Country is Dietricted.
To merit consideration. the laborer
must be Is years old, and as a rule
not above SO; he must have been a
farm laborer for not less than five
years.. he must own, or have at his
disposal, one-tenth of the value of the
property which he intends to buy, the
area being as a rule from about six
to about ten acres of medium quality.
The country is divided into Fl dis
~tricts, each selecting "a committee
whose task it is to select and procure
the land needed, In conjunction with
the parish or Town council. -
The government then grants a loan
amounting to nine-tenths Of the value
Of the property (which must o ex-
coed $l.160). and the interest pay
able on this loan is 3 per cent, in adj
dition to which l per cent is paid on
half the loan toward a sinking fund,
and when half the loan thus has been
wiped out, 8 1-2 per cent is paid on
the balance until the loan is repaid.

BLAsIEs ALL EUROPE
Germany Refuses to Confess That
She Alone is Responsible
for the War.

Versailles, May S.-Germany re-
fuses to confess that she alone IS re-
sponsible for the war. She admits
that her former government con-
trsbuted to the disaster" but claims.
that the "imperialism of all Euro
pean states. is equally to blame.
Russia's mobilization, she asserts
was the immediate cause.
Such, in substance, was the re-
ply of Count Won Brockdorff-Rant-
Eau head of the German peace dele
cation. to Premier Clemenceau's
statement in his welcome speech,
that Germany cruelty imposed the
war upon the world.
"Such confession in my mouth
would be a lie,' said Count Brock
dorff.
1--WE know the power of the Ger
man army is broken. We know the
power of the hatred which was en-
counter here
He spoke in German.
"The hundreds of thousands OF
non-combatants who have persisted
since the 18th of November by rea-
son of the blockade he said, "were
killed with cold deliberation after
cur adversaries had conquered and
victory had been assured to them"
His speech was bitter and defiant.

Poland is given the entire south
