German Prisoner Demands
Derided by Professor

Berne, June 6.-The German propa-
ganda against the retention of Ger
man prisoners of war by the allied
Governments does not take into con-
sideration what the Germans did in
northern France nor how deeply the
systematic destruction there has in
fiuenced allied minds says Prof.
Forester of the University of Munich
in the Montag, criticising the Ger
man attitude on the prisoner ques-
ton.
The propaganda" he says. reveals
a lack of psychology and leads one
TO think that the new ideas have not
spread everywhere. One OF the most
famous of German university men
wrote some time ago that the idea of
OBTAINING the German prisoners of
war recalled the proceedings Ct the
ancient Assyrians. 1t is not neccs-
sary for the writer 20 search rhe
Assyrian annals. Did he really never
hear of the deportation o. Belgian
workmen and of the unheard of
methods applied on that occasion?
Does he really not know that hun
dreds of girls were carried away from
occupied French towns and forced
to work at hard labor, and does he
not know that most of these girls
were forced to aid in the destruction
of the weaving frames in their own
country? Is he not aware of the
fact that we have ourselves detained
hundreds of thousands Of Russian
prisoners, not only after the armis-
tice with Russia. but also after the
Brest-Litovsk peace?
What impression ia likely to be
made on those who are to determine
the fate of our prisoners by the
fact that tho sookesmen OF German
opinion continue to conceal the Ger
man crimes? How would wa feel tc-
ward France Il our fiourishing cities

we did in great many places, our

French Commander
Gets Canadian Moose
Head He Admired

Winnipeg, Man, June 6-Memo-
ries of his recent visit to Canada
will be kept fresh for General Pau
by a giant moose head which will
soon decorate the walls of the vet
eran's home in France.
The head is the finest taken in
Canada during last winters hunting
season. The horns have a spread
OF fifty-three inches. The trophy,
beautifully mour"ad, has Just Eeea
sent to the French commander as Il
present from Manitoba.
The moose was killed in the big
woods between Lake Winnipeg and
Lake Manitoba on the Canadian Ma
tional railway about 100 miles north
west of Winnipeg. 1t was bought at
Moose Horn by James Henderson.
When General Pau toured Canada
and the United States as head of the
French mission, he saw the head at
Winnipeg and greatly admired it

Farmers Aid Soldiers
in Securing Farms
in Western Canada

Chicago, June 6.-The co-opera-
tive farmers of Western Canada are
aiding the government materially in
settling returned soldiers on farms.
When the soldier decides to take
up farming, he is examined first by
the Soldiers Settlement Board.
which determines his fitness for the
work. 1t he fails to stand this test,
the board advises him to try some
thing else. If he passes it, he selects
his farm and agrees on the price
with the owner of it He then ap-
plies to the board for a loan on
the land.
The boards first step is to learn
whether he has bought the land at
n fair price. To do this it calls in
the services of the United Grain
Growers Securities Company, the
cooperative farmers organization
for appraising land for settlers.
When the Securities Company pre-
sents its appraisal, the board pays
over the value of the land. retain
ing a mortgage upon it in favor
of the government
The soldier next purchases his
farming implements. Here again
the farmers cooperative organiza-
ton lends a helping hand. The
united grain growers have show
rooms in many cities. From the
machines on exhibit, the soldier
makes his purchases and equips his
farm. This bill also is paid by
the board.
A large per cent. of the returned
veterans are taking advantage of the
governments generous offer to es-
tablish them on the land. In all
the larger towns of Canada, the Sol
diers' Settlement Board has head
quarters and almost every day there
are a hundred or more soldiers in
the offices arranging to buy farms.
The government loans go rs high
as $4,000 to an individual soldier.

BERLIN LOSES
RHINE CONTROL
Will Never Again Control
Left Bank, Marshal
Foch Declares

Mannheim, June 6.-When the
project of the Rhenish republic was
first broached, Marshal Foch. COM
mander-in-chief of the Allied armies.
was approached through occupation
officers and asked whether the
Rhinelanders could work for re-
public without the risk of being
disciplined by Germany, according
to the Neue Baden Landzeitung. The
newspaper states that Marshal Foch
and Premier Clemenceau OF France
conferred on the subject and sent
reply to the Rhinelanders that Inc
German government would never
again have anything to do with the
left hank of the Rhine, and hence
the propagandists could not DC
punished"
In publishing these facts the news
papers tell of a conference between
Herr Richter and Herr Hotmann,
Centrist members of the Natlonai
Assembly. with General Gerard. OF
the French army, on March 8. 1t is
said that General Gerard was told
that the people of the Rhine pro-
vince were overwhelmingly in favor
of an independent state, but were
unable to work for its promotion
because of their fear of the German
government. The project was then.
it was said, taken up with Marshal
Foch and Premier Clemenceau.
Marshal Foch is quoted as saying
in addition:
The population of the left bank
of the Rhine may say and think
what it likes, but the establishment
of one. and possibly several inde-
pendent states. is inevitable. and,
above all, the Germans will not be
permitted to have anything to say
about the left bank of the Rhine"

 Paying $1,6OO for an ancient desk $520 for a Sheraton settee and $40 for a Queen Anne mirror, lovers of old furniture engaged in spirited bidding at the sale of antiques held last week at the Sharon Inn.
 The sale was of special interest, for the furniture embraced heirlooms handed down by descendants of Governor John Cutler Smith, of Con- necticut, a colonial official under King George. The last owner was a granddaughter, Mrs. Robert c. Geer, of New York city. The sale was conducted for MT. Geer, administra- tor, by Harry Sisson of Sisson Bros, Poughkeepsie.
 Beautiful examples of Chippen- dale, Sheraton, Hippelwhite and de- signers of the Louis XIV period aroused admiration. MT. Sisson ad- mits that all records were broken by this notable exhibition and sale, al l though he has handled many large consignments from old and distin- guished families in this section, rich in history and fame.
 More than a thousand lots of fur niture and household articles were sold in two days. Two original Hip pelwhite chairs sold for $156 each. They went to Mrs. G. B. Post, wife of a New York broker. J. Darwin Morse of Amenia bought an old gilt china set for $65.
 MT. Kinnicutt of New York, pur- chased Governor Smiths mahogany secretary for $1,6OO-he is a distant relative of the Smith family. W. Burlingame of Albany, paid $52O for a Sheraton settee. MT. Sheldon of Long Island paid $40 for an old mirror.
 Sharon is to be the scene of an other notable sale in August when an old castle filled with antiques, gath cred mostly in England, will be sold ! by MT. Sisson. Already reservations are being made at Sharon Inn fo1 rooms by those who intend to be in on that sale.
