It was a Washington woman,
Mrs. Arthur Hepburn, wife Of
Rear Admiral Hepburn, who
cared for the first group of
Russian refugees pouring into
Constantinople. And, as the
work grew, other women who
became involved in it were Mrs.
Sherman Miles, wife of Major
Miles, United States Army, then
on duty in "Constan," and Mrs.
Foster Stearns, whose husband,
a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank

Mrs. Anson Phelps Stokes, are
even now in Constantinople,

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN November "A plebiScite
throughout Germany on rejection OF the
Young plan now appears certainty IN
view OF the success of the Nationalist
in obtaining the requisite registration
for holding such referendum.
The first battle is won" says the
KreuzEeitung, voictng the jubilation of
Nationalist Fascist quarters. While the
sponsors of the proposal won only by a
nose, the result is likely to keep the
German political pot seething.
Register 1O.OS Per Cent.
The plebiscite proposal needed a total
Of 10 per cent OF the electorate regis
tered in order to place 1t on a constitu-
tional basis. The electorate numbers
4I,0l9,l8l, while this afternoon a total
OF 4, 1S6, 384 persons had registered, rep
resenting 1908 per cent.
The entire plebiScite scheme is admit
tedly distaSteful to the government,
which now is faced with q referendum,
possibly next January, which will cost
huge sums to hold. although it is re-
garded as doomed to defeat. The bill,
which declares that Germany rejects the
war guilt and refuses to assume any
further financial burdens or obligations
based upon that premise, now will come
before the ReichStag. In the event that
it is rejected, as It Is almosts certain TO
be, 1t will be carried to a plebiscite.
Both sides today INDUCED in mutual
recriminations. The Nationalist charged
the government with having attempted
in various ways to throttle free express
sion OF public opinion.
Refuse to Bend Neck.
Enemies abroad will be made aware
that in Germany strong forces are alive
which refuse to bend their necks under
the yoke" declares the KreuZzeitung,
Nationalist organ.
On the other hand, the governmental
supporters and newspapers cite numer-
Gus alleged instances in which reaction
airy junkers in the agricultural sections
of Pomerania and East Prussia terror
lzed their farmer tenants to get sigma
lures. Many stories are published about
simple folk who registered in the belief
that they would not have to pay repa-
rations any more.
Meanwhile 1t was announced that the
government would penaliZe officials Sc
verely If they took part in the plebiScite
in defiance of orders.
