Unemployed in Belgian City of Ghent Moved to Germany. The Hague, Netherlands, Nov. 22.— About 00 unemployed in the Bel- gian city of Ghent have been deport- ‘many for work in munition es, according to news from the fer. A compulsory registration of unemploved took place a few days since, and the present labor compul- siop is the sequel thereto. Former employes of various engineering works at Ghent who zave no heed to the call, were seized in their beds at night by German soldiers and thrown into prison, it is alleged. Other instances of the imposition of forced labor have recently occurred also at Bruges, Bekloo, near Ghent, and other places. All signs indicate thdt Germany is determined, so far as possible, to utilize the considerable available supply of Belgian labor to make good the ever-increasing mili- tary drain on its own man power.

This, he declared, would embrace developments at Beth- lehem, Baltimore, Harrisburg and clsewhere and would, he believed, be the largest single construction un- dertaking ever entered upon by a single industrial corporation. Referring to the new enterprise at Sparrows Point here, he said the com- pany contemplated the ultimate em- ployment the 000 men with an annual pay roll in Baltimore of some $20,000,000. Con- tinuing, he said: “Our program calls for an expend- iture here in plant znd equipment of about $50,000,000.
