Furthermore, the members of the Court of Appeals who took part in ! the decision have been forbidden the further discharge of their duties, and three of the four presidents of the Court of Appeals have heen take into custody and sent to ermany. “The question of the expediency our entire Flemish policy, out by the German anthorities in gium, will be referred to later.” Namur, in- Secretary Baker to Ask Military Com- | mittee That Tremendous Forces Be 5 Shipped When Possible to France.

Tonight at the Chamber of Com- erce roos, New Britain will take 1ts first step in organizing a committee of 100 prominent citizens for the pur- pose of bringing the alien residents of the city into a better understanding of the institutians of our government and the principles of American liberty. There are 13,000,000 foreign horn in the United States and 33.000.000 of foreign origin. Many thousand men of foreign birth who do not spealk English sufficiently to understand military instructions are now in train- ing camps. ~ Anti-American propa- ganda to convert the un-Americanized masses into an anti-American popu- lation is being conducted by cnemies of the United States. Most of the in- dustrial difficulties are fomented among aliens. 1,243,801 alien males of military age are registered under the draft law. 91,914 of those certi- fied in the first”draft are unable to speak English. Istimatea 68,967 of those who will probably be called in the second draft are unable to speak English.

We went through our vire, acress “No Man’s Land,” tiirough the Boche wire and then as near to their trenches as possible without entering them. We could rlainly hear the sounds of voices and working parties pounding behind the lines. But it's a lucky thing for the EBoche that we didn't come in con- tact with their patrol because 1 can just imagine what would have hap- pened.
