Mr. lHM-h riperti to bo la Portland
about a week when be will return to
X-w tork.
When tho war broke out Mr. IWch
was In New Tork. He wa. ae.lrtnrd
promptly to n to the front for th.

He wa. on. of the flr.t corre.pondente

Inva.lon of Belgium and derided to so
a. far toward the German line, as be
could. He hastened to Hrusaela. where
ho beard that Ueco had fallen. There
was no way out of Brussels.
tlefaaeea ftee. la t'llabl.
With him were John McCutcheon, of
the Chlcaaa Tribune. Will Irwin and
Inrin R t'obh. well-known American
newspaper correspondents. They hired
a taalcab and started for Louroln. It
miles distant. Before they reached that
rlty they encountered thousands on
thousands of refuceoa fleelnc before
the adtance .f the Oermnn armv. Nest
they came on the remnants of the Bel
(laa army, tired. betraEled srvl worn
out but desperately keeplnr up their
fish tins; spirit, eren In retreat
"By that time" he related "aa could
hear the roar of the bin nun In the
dietam-e. But we kept on soma. We
wanted to see some real fighting.
Presently wa saw It.
-W e ran rlzM Into an advance guard
of Cerman offu-ers. They stopped us
end technically placed us under arrest.
They Joked ith us a lot about jcoIdk
to war In a tatirab. For three daa
we were under arrest, although w
wera treated a. the guests ot tba Ger
man officers'"
iie. ro.ch and his fellow corres
pondents were relessed after three
Jays, but were arrested on subsequent
ovi-astons. By means of Improvised
-passe." they were able to keep with
the advance guard of the German army
on Its rush over the French frontier.
Then they were stopped again.
In company with Klchard Harding
pans and Mary Boyle O'Reilly. Mr.
I-usch returned to U-uvain and arrived
there In time to see tha burning of a
part of that city by the Germans. He
says thai only one-fourth of the town
was burned and that the only placa
of historical Interest that was de
stroyed waa the library.
Palall.aa May Be Hate.
Whether the art treasures In the
library were burned Is not known, be
says, but many Belgians believe that
the Germs ns looted the building before
they set fire to It and saved the val
uable painting.
"It la ridiculous to say that Louvaln
waa burned as a military reason. he
says. "There were few persons In the
city except women and children. It was
really a drunken orgy."
The Belgians are the fairest-minded
people you ever saw." he asserted yes
terday. "They take the war qulie
phiio.ophirally. Tl'.ey accept the. Ger
man invasion as an act of war."
Mr. Ivsch says he Is asked repeatedly
reaardin the reports ot German atroci
ties in Belgium.
"I'ers nally. he says. "I didn't see a
single atrocity committed while 1 was
with the German army In Belgium.
"It is true, bo doubt, thai some atro
cities were committed. They probably
were th. e t of Individual .oldlers and
rot In compliance with official orlers.
Mr. IVech severely criticises the re
prisals Instituted by the Germsns on
tneir Invasion of Belgium, whl'-h. he
drclarea. were unduly severe.
For InsLauct.xrders wera Uausi that
WEST
. J' I
every civilian foupd with a gun In his
possession should be shot: every house
from which a shot was fired must be
burned, and every person in that house
must be killed.
"And those orders were carried out to
the letter, too." he reports.
"They were carried out regardless of
the Innocence of every person killed.
The Germans would accept the word of
one of their own soldiers over all other
evidence. If some soldier should be
rebuffed on entering a house he might
report that a shot had been fired from
that house, and everyone In It would
be killed Immediately."
These ordera. he eiplalna. wera con
tinued In eTTect through the period of
the Belgian Invasion, but since have
been withdrawn. The Oerman now
are not so severe.
Mr. Dos.-h. who left Kurope about
threa months ago, does not expect the
war to end for a year or two yet. He
says the Germans are ready to sue for
P.ace because they, have alt the advan
tage. In the doubtful event that tha Ger
mans are driven back from their pres
ent position to their own borders, the
French will not try to Invade Germany,
be predicts.
"All that the Trench want Is to re
store the Integrity of Belgium," he says.
"Some Frenchmen don't even want Al
sace and L4rrulne back. The most that
they want from Germany Is to have the
IChtne made a neutral stream.
"The German successes In the'- eaat
are significant only aa they bear upon
the ultimate results In the west-"

At the conclusion of the conference

Inclusion in Mr. Runclman's recent
award of those workers to whom the
award did not extend, which would
mean that the strike was settled. Ac

contract to furnish music at the Oregon

success of Mi-Elroy's band in the sea
