Back of him his children calling He knew their

He knew they would need him for years to come But
there stood his wife-TEEIR MOTHER,-and her lie was

The Hague, Jan. 19.-(Correspon-
dence OF the Associated Press -
Baron Won der Lancken, formerly
German civil governor of Belgium,
sought refuge in Holland when the
Germans retreated from Belgium.
Won der Lancken was the man to
whom the American minister, Brand
Whitlock. delivered his vain appeal
to spare the life of Edith Cayell, the
English nurse who was executed by
the Germans in October, 1915, for
aiding the British. French and Bel
gian soldiers to escape from Bel
gium. Won der Lancken then told
Hugh Gibson. secretary of the Amer
ican legation, that the sentence i'm
posed by the military governor on
Miss Cavell was final and that the
civil governor could not overrule II.
When Won der Lancken arrived
here he went to the German legation,
but in order to obtain food cards, he
had to apply to the police station
where he failed miserably in his ef-
forts to obtain preferential treat
ment as a distinguished visitor" A
chance caller there found him In
line with group Of unwashed refu'
gees. his well-groomed figure out Of
keeping with his surroundings. Hs
was compelled to stand in line fol
two hours before his wants were at
tended to.
To one who remembers the tint
when to get word from Won de
Lancken in Brussels it was necessar,
to give two days notice., after whicl
one had to struggle through a body
guard of naughty suspicious under

specimen OF Prussian junkerdor
waiting his turn in the file amid tn

Berne, Switzerland, Jan. 10.-(By

of the seas, Professor Friedrich W.
Forester, Bavarian minister to Swift
zerland, said recently to a correspon-
dent of the Associated Press;
II must frankly admit the Ger
mans had no reasons to complain OF
the lack Of freedom in using the seas
| to develop their commerce and IN
dustries before the war. In fact,
both America and England placed
lno obstacles in this respect"
DIR. Forester declared that Prus-
sianism and militarism now are dead
In Germany-killed by the war and
that Germany will become a great
Irepublc on the lines of America but
that the process necessarily must be
slow owing to international conflicts
and the differences between political

Cooperation Asked

Washington, Feb. 19.-How does
Uncle Sam deal with tax-dodgers?
This inquiry which was prompted by
the severe penalties provided in the
new revenue bill, has brought from
Commissioner Daniel c. Roper a
frank statement as to the internal
revenue bureaus attitude toward
those who attempt to evade taxa
tion:
"Any person who deliberately con-
ceals tax liability, or who falsifies
a return in order to evade or reduce
any internal revenue tax, or who de-
liberately abets such concealment or
fraud, finds arrayed against him the
entire strength of this bureau press
ing for the full civil and criminal
penalties. This is the attitude to-
ward the tax-dodger, expressed In
one sentence. Whether he is a moon
shiher, stealthy trafficker in habit
forming drugs. or juggler OF income
figures, delinquent in making the
sworn return the law requires, or
revenue violator OF any other kinds
the bureau is charged with the duty
of hunting him out and exacting the
full punishment provided in the law.
Towards the taxpayer who means
to comply with the internal revenue
Ilaws, fully and honestly. the bureau
extends helping hand. coopera-
tion with the taxpayer is our watch.
word and objective.
These two eontrasts-the teeth o.
the law for the tax-dodger and thu
violator, and the aid OF every Lawful

are policies necessary to the admin

conditions. One of the most diffi
