CHAPLAIN SAYS BELGIAN
PROTESTANTS NEED AID
Maj. Blommaert, Here on Mission
for Government, Reports Deep
Poverty in His Land.

NEW YORK. May 17.-Maj. Pierre
Blommaert. Protestant chaplain-in-
chief of the Belgian army. who has
arrived in this country on a mission
for the Belgian government. has re-
ported to the committee for Christian
relief in France and Belgium that
there is urgent need of immediate
help to the struggling Protestant
congregations in that country. which
are seeking to re-establish them
selves.
Those congregations are in the
deepest poverty" said Chaplain
Blommaert. "In their efforts to re-
sumo normal life they are appalled,
both by the lack of means and the
high prices. Prices for everything in
Belgium are from two to three times
as high as before the war.

PARIS, May 15.-On the all-im-
portant question. VIII the Germans
sign? two currents Of opinion are
moving at the present time in Paris
The majority of well informed OBJ
servers believe that without any pre-
liminary rupture Of negotiations aft
er protracting discussion to the last
possible moment the Germans will
sign. A smaller group. not on the
whole less well informed. holds that
in any event the Germans will go
through the motions of refusal and
solidarity of the entente, and dis
close the willingness or unwilling
ness of the allies to use force. So
far, German tactics have been feeble
to the, point of provoking contempt.
+ remember to have heard Marshal
Foch say that when Ertzberger came
to his headquarters to receive the
terms of the armistice, he occupied
his time almost continuously in writ
ing and presenting point after point
Of protest and. when each of these
was rejected. as rapidly producing an
other with no apparent appreciation
of the real facts of his situation.
Today the Germans seem to be pursu-
ing something of the same fatuous pol
icy. Points which they have SO far
raised have been OF relatively no i'm
portance. They have suggested quib-
bling. rather than dignffied protest
They have suggested pettyfogging,
rather than good faith. Centrasted with
the truly splendid memories of the
Frenchmen who faced Bismarck to save
for France what could be saved from
tho ruin of the Franco Prussian war,
Brockdorff- Rantzau and his crew make
a miserable show.

The Supreme National
Medium

1t is the. newspaper which, always supreme
as a local medium, has become in the past
decade the leading national advertising
medium
In every home in every market, every
day in the year, the newspaper is fixed
habit 1t brings to every individual the
news of the world as whole, as we'll as
the news of the daily life of the COM
munity.
Approximately $375,o00OOo is expended
annually for newspaper advertising.
The newspaper is the only medium which
reaches every consumer everywhere, every
day. 1t can be employed city by city, sec

Action will be taken at once to weed

Steps are to be taken Immediately

PACT TO AUSTRIA
Revised Treaty Handed To En-
voy at st. Germain Today.
Her Future Left to League
Vienna Seems Doomed.

Paris, Sept. 2.-The revised text of
the peace terms framed for Austria s
acceptance by the peace conference
was handed to the Austrian plenipo-
tentiary at st. Germain this afternoon.
The treaty was presented to the
Austrian delegates by Paul Dutasta,
general secretary of the peace confer
ence. He also handed them the allied
reply to the Austrian counter-propos-
ais and a covering letter reiterating
that Austria had precipitated the war
by an ultimatum Unacceptable to Ser
bia.
Future Left To League.
Paris, Sept. 2.-The Austrian peace
treaty as now virtually completed by
the supreme council for submission to
the Austrian plenipotentiaries leaves
the future of Austria very largely in
the hands of the League of Nations.
The league, that is, would be able to
decide whether Austria shall be per-
mitted to join Germany, and. as
France is opposed to such a union,
as are Switzerland and many other
countries, there would appear to be
little chance of Austria's securing per-
mission to terminate her existence as
a separate state should she SO desire
in future.
There seems to be a general feel
ing Of dissatisfaction in peace confer
ence circles with the treaty, which
was adopted from the German treaty
and does not fit such a small power
very well. The council, however, had
agreed today on virtually all sections
of the treaty. because there is a gen.
eral weariness with discussion.
Vienna Is Doomed.
Under the terms of the treaty
Vienna, with it's 100000 inhabitants
seemed doomed to lapse into compar-
ative commercial insignificance. as
there is a population of only 100000
support the capital. while with Jugo
Slavia, Czecho Sovakia and Hungary
existing, as separate powers, Vienna
can hardly hope to recover the bust
ness formerly drawn from their ter
ritories.
II the internationalizat ton of F'iume
were provided for. as is expected BY
many quarters, II is pointed out by
members of the peace delegations thai
Austria's shrunken commercial inter
ests would thereby be protected tc
some extent but the territory contribu-
tory to the capital is so limited that Il
is generally thought by the peace dele
gates that ViennaNis doomed as great
into a residential city with relatively
slight business importance.
1t is likewise pointed, out by mem.
bers of the. conference that. even wer,
Austria to be Joined eventually will
Germany. the future If Vienna as
great city would not be assured. as 4
would fail thus TO acquire additiona
tributary territory and would be sub
Ject to the sharp competition of Ger
man cities with better transportation
| facilities.

Supreme Council Sends UIti-
matum to German Govt.
Demands New Constitution Be
Altered in Two Weeks.
THREATEN FURTHER INVASION
Charge Hun National Laws
Violate Versailles Treaty.
Provides for. Austrian Repre-
sentatiOn in the Reichsrath.

Paris, Sept. 2.-The supreme coun-
ell of the peace conference decided to-
day to send a note in forcefuI terms
to the German government pointing
out the contradiction with the Yer
sailles treaty of the provision in the
new German constitution providing for
the representation of Austria in the
German reichsrath.
The council demands the suppress
sion of the article within a fortnight,
declaring that otherwise the allies will
be compelled to undertake a further
occupation of the left bank of the
Rhine.
The article objected to is article 81
Of the German constitution. as in con-
flict with article 80 of the German
peace treaty forbidding German inter-
ference In Austrian affairs.
Article 80 of the Versailles treaty
reads:
Germany acknowledges and will re-
spect strictly the independence of Aus
tria. within the frontiers which may
be fixed in a treaty between that state
and the principal allied and associated
powers. She agrees that this indie
pendence shall be inalienable except
with the consent of the council of the
league of nations"
The text of the paragraph in the
German constitution referred to has
not been received in this country. 1t
appears, however, that the clause ap-
piled to all the territories of German
speaking peoples in Europe. and
to German Austria, with the
effect of providing that Austria might
have a certain number of representa-
tives in the German parliament, pro-
portionate to the Austrian population.

Kansans should postponed dying

burial expenses. Under the antitrust
laws r. J. Hopkins. attorney general.
plans to investigate funeral charges by
undertakers in a number of towns in
the state. There is no charge of viola
ton of the antitrust laws. But infor-
nation gathered which shows abb
normal charges will be given to the
newspape for publication.
Many complaints are said to have
been made as to funeral expenses in
this state. 1t is declared that the un-
dertaker has seriously and solemnly
hiked rates and extracted increased
revenues from distracted relatives. If
evidence shows an agreement of the
undertakers as to prices, prosecutions
will be filed under the antitrust law.
In the meantime tho. the attorney
general will conduct an investigation
of suspicion. Where funeral directors
are shown to charge unreasonable
fees for funerals and is engaged in
individual profiteering, the informa-
tion will be given to the newspapers.
Thru publicity the attorney general
expects to force lower funeral prices.
