OF U. S. OUTUWS
WASHINGTON, April 30. Count
Von liernstnrl'f, former German nm
bassador to the United States, be
fore the war, spoke disparingly of
German citizens in this country, say
ing (hey bad run away from the
fatherland to avoid military service
and were "outlaws," nccording to a.
statement made public today by Sen
ator l'helnn of California, in con
nection with comment on the passage
of the war army bill.
The remarks attributed to Von
Hernstorl'f, Senator I'helan explained,
were made during nn interview which
he had with the ambassador in Mun
ich in 1013 in an effort to get Ger
many to participate in the Panama
I'acifie exposition. Mr. I'helan urg
ed n German exhibit on the ground
Hint Germans in the United States
would be proud of it.
"He immediately resented that,"
said Senator I'helan in his statement.
"Much to my surprise he substantial
ly said 'do not talk about those peo
ple. We do not care what they think
or want. They hnve deserted the
fatherland. They have run nwav to
avoid military duty. They have been
false to the old traditions. They are
outlaws,' nnd that was the sentiment
of official Germany then, as I be
lieve it is today. They regard these
good people, who are expected to ren
der service to the autocracy now, as
outlaws, as men who have fled from
their duty.
"I think our Germnn American cit
izens should know nnd understand
that which is the Prussian estimate
of them nnd they would be confirm
ed in what I believe to bo their sin
cere conviction that their duty lies
with America in this struggle."
CHIEF OF STAFF
; PATHS, April .'10. The appoint
ment of General I'elain as chief of
staff is generally welcomed as a
timely reform which had long been
ndvocaled by military experts. Gen
eral l'etain, as technical adviser to
tho government will occupy very
much tho same position ns General
Sir Win. lioberlson in London, and
will bo responsible- for tho general
conduct of operations wherever
l'Veiieh troops are engaged.
In addition to his appointment it
is understood that the government
contemplates various other measures
of reorganization, based on an ex
amination of the military situation
nnd tho lessons taunht by tho re
cent operations. The Petit Parisien
says that certain services whose
workings have been shown to be de
fective will be overhauled and thai
changes will be mado among the
leaders whose tnleuls could be more
judiciously used.
CHICAOO, April 30. ltlotlng

worst disorders ocurrod In the llhetto
district wliero mounted police were
called upon to protect tho smaller

sympathizers. At many places men
and women threw kerosene on bread
ns It was brought to tho wagons for
delivery.
Meanwhile the shortage of 1,000
000.000 loaves of bread mused much
concern to bouseholders, and city nnd
state and federal authorities exerled
every effort to end the walkout
which was caused by a demand for
higher wages, I'alou officials de
clared that the strike has closed all
the city's larger bakeries ami more
than fifty of the smaller ones.

application of tho California work
men's compensation law, tho supremo
court today refused to review appeals
of tho California Industrial Accident

lug that tho stato law does not apply
to railroad crossing flagmen. Tho
commission sought a ruling that the
federal employers' liability law oper
ates only upon railroad omploycs ac

Tho court todny refused "to disturb
state court rulings that the Southern

not subject to tho stato law. State
compensation awards to their widows
aro therefore annulled.
SELECTIVE CONSCRIPTION
BY OVERWHELMING VOTE
WASHINGTON' April 30. lly over
whelming majorities, both tho senate
and tho bouse passed Saturday night
tho administration bill to rnlso a war
army by selectlvo draft.
Tho final roll calls brought Into
line behind tho bill many senators
and representatives who bad fought

amendments earlier In tho day In
both houses. The senate, which had
voted down tho volunteer ptnns, 00
to IS, passed tho bill by a vote of
M to S. In the houso tho veto
against tho volunteer plan was 313
to 109, and that by which tho bill
Itself was passed was 397 to 24.
Would liaise Pay
Hot li senate nnd bouse adopted
amendments Just beforo the final roll
cnlls which would greatly Increase
tho pay (if enlisted men during the
war. The bouse provision would make
their pay $30 a month, and that ap
proved by the sctuito would fix It at
$29 n month. The present pay Is
only $ 1 R.
In tho house at the last moment
Chairman Fitzgerald of the appropri
ations committee objected vigorously
to tho appropriation of $3,000,000,
000 carried In the bill for the ex
penses of tho new army, and the sec
tlou finally was eliminated.
Among the amendments adopted In
the senate wa one which would per
mit Colonel Koosevelt to recruit a
volunteer force for service In France.
A similar proposal had been rejected
by the bouse.
Speaker Clark, Pemocratlc Loader
Kltchlu and Chairman lcul of the
military committee, who had faxorcd
tho volunteer system, all voted fur
the draft bill on the final roll call.
I!epublic:n Lender Maun nlso was re
corded la the affirmative, as was Miss
liaukln, who previously bad voted
wllh the volunteer advocates.

THE MOTHER
BY BURTON B II A LEY.
I do not want my boy to go to war.
To suffer cruel pain, perhaps to die.
Yet If tho cause he should he fiybtlng for
Calls him to fight, 1 know full well thai I
Would bo unworthy of a mother's name
It I should strive to keep him by my side.
Tis mino to recognize his country's claim
And let him go in all his youth nnd pride.
I will bo bravo the day be goes away, If
I will not show tho terror In my hearl, !
Hut Oh, Dear God! bow I shall watch and pray
Seeing my son, my splendid son, depart
Pray that be does his stern task bravely well
Hearing his share of duty to be done,,
But that rrom out the storm of shot and' shell
llo may como safe to me, my son, my son!
I do not want my boy to go to war
Marching away to stirring fife and drum,
But when there's need that ho should battle for
Tho sako of generations yet to como,
"When war and war alone will serve to save
The things wo hold most precious and most true,
I shall say "Go!" I shall bo calm nnd brave
But, oh! my boy, how I shall pray for you!
