KAISER IN SECLUSION
AFTER SEEING TERMS
Sends Word, HoWeOer, That
Attitude Is Unchanged.

AMERoNGES, May 2S (deIayed) Since
the ex-German Emperor has been ac-
quainted with the peace terms he has
become even more invisible to the outer
world. The only possibility of catching
glimpse of him 10 when he crosses the
drawbridge twice daily, going to and
returning from his log saving in the
garden OF the castle, and then he Is only
within sight for about four seconds
Replying to a repeated request for a
statement the abdicated Emperor sent
the following words:
Tell the Associated Press that my
attitude is unchanged"
The messenger, Gen. Won Estorff. gave
the correspondent no hope that anything
was likely to be given out for publica-
ton. II is virtually impossible to CLEAN
anything regarding the ex -Emperor's life
or plans. as everybody in the castle is
under strict orders to maintain silence.
Apparently there is no excitement
among the members OF his suite over the
terms. The only portion which interests
the exile Is the clause relating to himself.
The ex-Empress appears to be more
affected than her husband, and Is evil

ALLIES MAY Be OUT
OF RUSSIA BY FALL
Churchill Forecasts Speedy
Withdrawal Because of
Favorable Situation.

LONDON. May 2s.-winston Spencer
Churchill. Secretary for War, speaking
in the House OF Commons to-day, fore
Swallowed the possibility Of the with
drawal of foreign troops from Russia by
the end Of summer, owing to the favor
signed, he said, the Rhine army could
be reduced from ten to six divisions. and
still more when It was seen that peace
was being effectively carried out
The British policy. said the Secre-
tary. was that Russia must be saved
BY the Russians and that new Russia
must be democratic State. The FIVE
great powers had decided to make II
condition of their further support and
formal recognition OF the anti-Bolshevik
governments in Russia that those gov
ernthents must give a clear undertaking
that their victory would be immediate
ly followed by the summoning of a con-
st!tuent assembly on a democratic fran
chise.
Detailing the situation in Russia, Mr..
Churchill said that, despite deplorable
events in Ukraine and Crimea throwing
the whole OF tie resources OF these fer
tile regions into Bolshevik hands, the
military weakness OF Bolshevisn was
becoming apparent Wherever the Boil
sheviki had been faced with determine
ton they had been repulsed and driven
back.
Anxiety with regard 10 Ruman.a. con-
tinued the Secretary. was greatly less
ened. The RumaniAn army appeared
capable of defending the Ruruanian
frontier, while on the Esthcnian front
heavy blows had been .nfictAi carry
ing the Esthonian and Russian troops
within measurable distance OF Petro-
grad.
Along the whole west front from Fin
land to Rumania, the wall OF the weak.
newly formed states, which a few
months ago seemed about to totter. was
standing firm. and the fact that this wall
was able to keep the front. and. in
many cases, to be advanced, was the
most telltale measure OF Bolshevik
weakness
Mr.. Churchill dfated on the effec-
tive work of Admiral Kolchak's army
mainly equipped with British rifles and
munitions. Kolchak's advance, he said
already had drawn 20, 900 Bolsheviki Off
the Allied front at Archangel, thus rem
dering real service. Within the last
three weeks considerable setbacks had
occurred on the Southern section OF
Kolchak's front. but the fighting was con-
tinuing. Altogether. the Minister said,
there was prospect of the whole OF
North Russia becoming self-supporting
within a reasonable time and of purely
Russian forces maintaining themselves
against the Bolsheviki in the future
Speaking generally. Mr.. Churchill
described Bolshevism as being not pol
Icy but n disease: not a creed but a
pestilence.
There must be an eventual recovery"
said Mr.. Churchill, land We are en-
deavoring TO aid in this recovery by
supporting all the anti Boishevik
forces In the field"

the sentiments which Il Inevitably
suggests. In observing the day we
commemorate not only the reunion of

liberation Of the world from one OF
the most serious dangers to which
free government and the free life of
men were ever exposed.
We have buried the gallant and
now immortal men who died in this
great war Of liberation with a new
sense OF consecration. Our thoughts
and purpose now are consecrated to
the maintenance OF the liberty OF the
world and Of the union of its people
In single comradeship OF liberty
and OF right. 1t was for this that
our men conscientiously offered their
lives. They came to the field Of bat
tie with the high spirit and pure
heart OF crusaders.
We must never forget the duty that
their sacrifice has laid upon us of
fulfilling their hopes and their pur-
- pose to the utmost This, Il seems
TO mo, is the impressive lesson and
the inspiring mandate of the day.

First Charge on All Assets.

The first article OF the financial
clauses stipulates that the first charge
upon all the assets and revenues Of the
German Empire and its constituent
States shall be the cost of PREPARATION
and all other costs arising under the
present treaty or any treaty or agree
ment supplementary thereto or under
arrangements concluded between Ger
many and the allied and associated
Powers during the armistice and its ex-
tension. II also prohibits the Germans
from exporting any gold without the
previous approval Of the allied and as
ISOLATED Powers acting through its COM
mission.
The priority OF allied charges is sti2u-
lated thus:
First. the cost OF the armies OF occu-
patton during the armistice.
Second. the cost OF the occupation
after signing treaty.
Third. the cost of repatriation as laid
down in the treaty.
Fourth. all other obligations incum-
bent upon Germany under the armistice,
the treaty or supplementary treaties.
The next clause stipulates. however.
that the payment for such supplies and
raw materials as the Allies may decide
that Germany needs VIII have a pri-

thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-PhosPhate to
Put on Firm. Healthy Flesh and
TO Increase strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually being
advertised for the purpose of making thin
people fleshy. developing arms. neck and
bust. and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines of health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
OF men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are oIten due to
starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than is contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists rs bitrO- phosphate, which is in
expensive and is sold by most all druggists
under a guarantee of satisfaction or money
back BY feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the neees-
sary phUsphOric food elements. bitro-
phosphate should produce welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase
in weight frequently being astonishing
Increase in weight also carries with 1t
n general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of en-
ergy. which nearly always accompany eX-
cesgive thinness, should soon disappear,
dun eyes brighten and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION While Bitro- Phosphate is
unsurpassed for the relief of nervousness,
general debility, etc, those taking it who
do not desire to put on flesh should use
extra care in avoiding fat-producing foods.

Output by Mills.
During the crop year of 191S-19, the
