NOT ALLOWED TO STARVE — (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) The Hague, Netherlands, Sept. 9.— The question .whether German chil- dren should be entertained in Hol- land, and fattened there on Dutch i | milk and butter, has led to a storm in a teacup here. Columqs of the news- papers have been devoted to articles ojon the subject by learned professors and editorial writers. “Germany is a besieged fortress,” it is declared on the one hand, “and it is unneutral and, what is more, op- y [posed to all Holland's interests to help defeat the object of the besiegers by relieving distress there.” “How can that be?” is the question posed in reply, “when Germany has free ac- cess to Holland, Scandihavia and Switzerland? Holland ‘is sovereign of her own frontief; and the feeding of hungry German children is our ood right, and not the slightest vio- fnlion of neutrality.” “If you have money to spare for poor children,” is the retort, “give the benefit of it to many thousands of half-starved chil- dren in your own cities, who are suf- fering from too large exports to Ger many; or lavish your pity upon the millions of suffering children in Po- land, Serbia, Belgium and northern France, the countries ruthlessly deso- lated by Germany. Moreover, you are endangering lfeur own food sup- plies by giving the allies ground for thinking that the goods imported here will indirectly help their enemy to hold out.” An Act of Chivalry.™ “Even assuming that Germany is a besieged fortress,” runs another argu- ment, “does not a belligerent some- times allow the siege of a city to be prolonged by sparing the women and children as much- as possible? And if you say we are helping Germany to hold out, so does, such noble work as that of the Red Cross, which is universally recognized to be within the province of neutrals, strengthen the forces of the belligerents.” “It is but an act of chivalry and|N: compassion; it would be a shame td exclude it by carrying logical strict- ness to extremes,” says another. “That's all very well,” is the answer, rre< | “but to nourish German subjects is to prolong the war, and so sacrifice more of the allies’ men; and if the Dutch government is to permit Ger- mans to have recourse to public cha ity here, at least let it poiptout to Germany its. obligations toward this country and to the civil ?pulnion of the * regions occupied by German armies.” Crossing Dutch Berder. So runs the strange controversy, and meanwhile, all unconscious of the mild storm they have raised, little parties of German children, many of them pale-faced, but §ome looking in fairly good condition, are daily cross- ing the Dutch border, They come in parties varying from a dozen to sev- eral hundreds, and are being accom- modated about the country, mostly in children’s holiday camps and such in- stitutions, but also, by twos and threes, in private families. The work has been organized b; various committees set up by Hol- landers with family ties in Germany and oghers, and naturally the German authorities have willingly extended their co-operation. There are now between 1,000 and 2,000 such childsen in the country, and they are still ar- riving. A movement is also now on foot to bring children from the occupied dis- tricts .of France, -so. ‘that . Holland promises to develop into gdite a chil- dren's refuge, following the claims upon its hospitality made by the flocks of Bergian fugitives, part of Antwerp’s escaping garrison, and many hundreds of fleeing prisoners of war. Iron Fence Picket Is Driven Deeply Into Man’s Eye by Fall Utica, N. Y, Sept. 23.—William Singerly McCartney, a graduate of Harvard dniversity and inspector :z arms for the Canadian government a munitions plant here, was found impaled on an iron fence in this city early today. Hé had fallen from a piazza and the iron picket penetrated one eye so deeply that two policemen and a physician could not pull him off. He was conscious, and the phy- scian chloroformed Him. Then the picket was sawed off and he was hur- ried to a hospital where the iron was removed. His recovery is not ex- pected. ——— Statement of Clearing House Banks.
