INVADING HUNGARY
Charges Made by Belgian Foreign
Minister Says All Men Fit to ;
Bear Arms, Rich or Poor, Shipped '

Out of Country to Toij in German
Industries Only Cripples Left.

that the Uernum government is
rounding u uiul sending to unknown
dentinal ions pvaetUiilly all the uMc
bodied tnon in omipiod Helium arc
math: hy Itaron Iteyens, Ifolniun lor
einn niiuitor, in a stattMiit'iit r;ul by
him today. Huron Iteyens said:
The (ierinan iivei nnient is round
ing 11 1 in lurse niimbops in the towns
yiui villages of occupied ltelj;iuin
such an .Most, Ghent, Ilruew, four
; trill find Monsr to name only (hp first
to be victims of the measure all men
lit to bear nryis. rich and poor, ir
respeelive ul class wheiher employed
or unemployed. Hnnclibacks, crip
ples and one armed men alone are ex
empted. These men are torn hi thous
ands from their families, l.,ioo from
Inlanders alone are sent, God knows
where, whole trainloads are seen no
iug east and south.
Kvense is (iiven
"The German authorities seek
these deportations by pretending it is
for the purpose of making work, to
establish public order find public life.
They affirm that the unemployed
must not lull a chaise upon public
charities and that work whereupon
they are employed has nothing to do
with the war. Those who are respon
sible for the stagnation and decay of
Ilelgian industry are, according lo the
Germans, workmen who prefer to liv
ing on charity rather than on the pro
ceeds of their labor, and Kngland pro
hibited the importation of raw mater
ials into Itelgium.
"Is it necessary to answer that
there would be no lack of work in
Belgium if the Germans had not made
a clean sweep of rnw materials, cop
per, and oil In the factories, as,
they will perhaps make a clean sweep
.of.jiU ,leatlKrr.!e.ltinK ,vhicl,must .be
declared in detail if they had not
requisitioned in masses, machinery,
parts of machinery anil machine tools.
If finally they bad not placed prohib
itive duties on metal goods exported
to Holland in order tojieep them out
of the market the only one remain
ing open as a competitor for German
Industry? Is it necessary to add that
industries cited by the Germans as
having no connection with the war,
such-as nuarries and lime kilns fur
nish the German army with materials i
for concrete wherewith to fortify nnd
consolidate trenches
Want Home Kmploymcnt
"If they desire to use the arms of
our workmen to repair and maintain
roads would it be necessary to deport
them like cattle instead of employing
them in the neighborhood of their
homes nnd families? The truth Is
that Germany by these corralings of
Belgians intends to liberate an eiiial
number of German workmen to fill
tho gaps in the regiments of their
armies.
"The Belgian government denounc
es to civilized nations among whom
t'10 American people has made itself
conspicuous by its love of rinlit and
justice, its horror oT oppression and
its eagerness to hedp the unfortunate
victims of war violations of the law
of nations and the rules of The Hague
convention. It protests with all its
power against (he slave trade organ
ized in Belgium in contempt of the
I"-:neiples of humanity and Interna
tional conventions.'' .
