In order not to stand convicted as a criminal uation, Germany
must perform this duty to the world.
It will appear more and more evident, we believe, that the
nations victorious in this war will not allowe those in Germany who
have dictated violations of international law to continue in charge
But all conventions specifically declare that troops that sur-
render are prisoners of war and must be treated humanely, and
the enemy would discourage the use of shotgun by killing soldiers
captured with such weapons.

Even in attempting to accuse their adversaries of. violating an

They have taken it upon themselves to say that the carrying of

While the county draft board is still
busy receiving answers to question-
naires and classifying new registrants,
there is not such a rush in those head-
quarters as has been noticed there
for some time. A Statesman repre-
sentative was informed today that
about 75 per cent of the question-
naires sent out to low registrants
have been filled in and returned and
there is only about two days’ work to
be done by the board this 75 per cent
has been classified.
It may be expected that all regis-
trants enrolled between th-ages of
18 and 45 in Travis County will soon
be classified and ready for physical
examination. Naturally there will be
.appeals in some Instances to the dis-
trict boards by those who are not sat-

Work of City Board.
Secretary-Shelley of the city draft
board says that work there is pro-
gressing most satisfactorily. He also
stated that the.city bo has made
something of a departure by handling
indicated class I’ men first. The an-
swered questionnaires are gone over
and where no deferred classification
is asked for nor claimed in any form
such men are placed in class 1. Of
course if later physical examinations
or conditions arise to cause them to
be plaeed in a deferred classification
such is done, but it is believed that by
classifying them as suggested above
the city will be enabled to get a large
number of class 1 men sooner than it
would otherwise, thus being ready for
any call that might be made at this
EIgin, though it is known Lieutenant Kinsey,

If troubled with indigestion or sleep-
lessness you should read what Miss
Agnes Turner. Chicago, III., has to say:
"Overwork, irregular rules of health,
gradually undermined it until last
fall I became a wreck of my former
self. I suffered from continual head-
ache. was unable to digest my food,
which seemed to lay as a dead weight
on my stomach. I was very consti-
pated and my complexion became
dark, yellow and muddy as I felt.
Sleeplessness was added to my mis-
ery, and I would awake as tired as
when I went to sleep. I heard of
Chamberlain’s Tablets and found such
relief after taking them that I kept
up the treatment for nearly two
months. They cleansed my stomach,
invigorated my system, and since that
time I can eat and sleep in comfort.
I am today entirely well." N

at the family home in Enfield Ad-
dition at 5 o'clock this morhing. Mrs.
Tarlton had been ill only since Sun-
day and it was but yesterday that
pneumonia developed, from which sho
became almost immediately violently
Mrs. Tarlton, formerly Miss Hallie
Upshaw Porter, was born in Hillsboro.
Texas, May 19, 1888. She was reared
in Hillsboro, but when she became
the wife of Mr. Tarlton on Dec. 29,
1908, the young married couple caco
to Austin, where they have since' lited.
She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
T. K. Porter of Hillsboro, but her
mother has been dead for some years,
though her father is yet a resident of
Hillsboro, G. R. Bennett, stepfather
of Mr. Tarlton, is in New York City
and funeral arrangements are awaiting
a wire from him.
Besides the rusband and father who
survive her, Mrs. Tarlton leaves a 9-
year-old daughter, Frances Atlanta,
three sistas, Mrs. Max Teitelbaum of
New Orleans and Misses Roxle and
Hilda Porter, the former of Hillsboro
and the latter- now living in Dallas:
also a brother, Judge H. D. Porter of
Hillsboro.
The biennial report of the Texas
Confederate Home for the period end-
Ing Aug. 31, 1918, shows the number
of men in the home to be 3C5.
During the time there have been
887 admissions, 59 discharges and 133
deaths. The appropriations totaled
$247,650 and expenditures $241,621.
Considerable repairs and ’ improve-
ments were made during this period.
vor the kaiser is abdicating, the story
has no significance whatever. If it
is simply setting up one of his sons

thing.”

It is stated by E. K. McGinnis, B. A.,
adjunct professor of business admin-
istration of the University, that the
need for stenographers is Inci easing
every day; that expert stenographers
command excellent salaries, and those
only partially trained are accepted in
many instances. Mr. McGinnis says
that the demand for trained stenog-
raphers is far greater than the supply.
Of last year’s calssin this department
many are holding first-class positions.
Miss Mildred Marshall, B. B. A., ’18, is
private secretary for Senator Morris
Sheppard. Other members of this class
who are holding good positions are:
Miss Anna Bell, now secretary of the
exemption board at Shreveport, La.;
Miss Hilda Widen, employed in the
office of J. A. Udden, Ph. D., director
of the bureau of economic geology and
technology; Miss Ada Mae Maddox, em-
ployed in the University registrar’s of-
fice; Mis Marguerite Haynie, who is
doing work for J. W. Sheppard in the
extension department, and Mrs. Flor-
ence Hopkins, who holds a position in
the State Agricultural Department.
Among those of this class who are
teaching typewriting, shorthand and
bookkeeping in the schools are: Miss
Ruth Dickie, at Vernon, Texas; B. .F.
Harrison, teaching in the Junior Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College at Ar-
lington, and Miss Florence Stoken, who
is teaching at Texas Women’s College.
Fort Worth. Miss Alma Baker and
Miss Harmon are in civil service, sta-
tioned at Washington, D. C. Miss Vera
Thomas is at the Texas A. and M. Col-
lege doing stenographic work. Miss
Hattie Ba rlow has a position in the
Federal Building in this city. All these
are last year’s students and are re-
porte das doing very successful work.
There are a number of others of this
class doing like work, but whose loca-
tions are not known. Of the four who
took the Civil Service examination all
passed and received an appointment
within a month.

But the Civil SeVce positions furntsh
an opportunity for patriotic duty, as
the Government is great’/ in need of
stenographers and accountants. and
urges that those trained .In this work
take the examination.
The number of students taking tyne-

LONDON, Oct. 10.—The demand for
something more than unconditional
surrender from Germany is becoming
intensified in the newspapers here.
Letters recalling the crimes of Ger-
many and urging retribution include
one from Professor Spenser Wilkinson,
who declares that a condition prece-
dent to the cessation of hostilities
should be the occupation by the Allies
of Metz, Strassburg, Mainz, Trent,
Triest and Pola.
V Iscount Middleton, former secre-
tary of state for India, asks that the
Allies make a declaration that peace
shall not be made until retribution is
exacted from German towns for van-
dalism in France. The Times de-
scribes the enemy's policy of burning
and destroying town, as he retreats as
a "cruel and mean blackmail.” ■ says
that German towns like Hamburg and
Frankfort must be marked down for
ransom for French and Belgians towns
wantonly destroyed.

At the regular meeting of the City
Council this morning the ordinance,
drawn by City Attorney J. Bouldin
Rector, increasing the street car fare
in the City of Austin from 5 to 6
cents for adults and from 2% cents
to 3 cents for children, if passed, was
placed before the body for consid-
eration. It was placed upon its first
reading, but there was no effort to
suspend the rules and finally pass
same until citizens have had an op-
portunity to appear before the Coun-
cil and discuss IL The street car
company was represented by Manager
Janes and Judge Charles Wilcox, who
replied to all questions propounded to
them. ,
Think Referendum Necessary.
While the matter was being dis-
cussed the Mayor, read a letter from
Hart & Patterson and McGregor &
Love, in which they stated they had
been informed it was the intention
of the Council to act upon this mat-
ter in an ordinance form, passing it
or refusing to do so, as the Council
saw fit The writers of the letter ex-
pressed themselves as of the opinion
that the ordinance should be voted
upon in a referendum election to the
end that the people of Austin might
express themselves in the premises.
Mayor Wooldridge then stated that a
meeting of the Council would be held
next Tuesday at which time th? ques-
tion of a referendum vote would be
discussed and decided, and asked that
the press give publicity to this meet-
ing; also that any and all who may
have objections to the unit tax sys-
tem, now up for consideration, come
before the Mayor and discuss the mat-
ter with him.
Referring to the increased fare of
the city railway again, Judge Wil-
cox stated that while there were some
parts of the ordinance which might
work to the end of causing the in-
crease to be minimized to some extent,
yet the company would accept it as
drawn by the city attorney, and in
this Mr. Jones also expressed himself
affirmatively.

Dr. R. H. KUNE CO., Rzontmakt 2.37—i
Police Ask Increased Pay.
Considerable time was taken up by
a d^cusslon of Increased pay for the
city policemen. A petition was read,
and increased pay advocated by J. L.
Teeier. Dr. F. L. Griffith, A. J. Eilers,
W. E. Long and A, C. Goeth, who
made talks orthe subject.
This brought up the fact that the
city hs no available funds from which
to increase salaries of its employes,
and brought up the question of the
unit system of taxation, with the
equalization of taxation in a scien-
tific way, which is expected to add
to the city's revenue.
Officials Make Reports.
Reports were made by the several
departments of work.
City Engineer C. R Leonard report-
ed that the sewer extension to Penn
Field, expense for which is borne
partly by the University of Texas and
partly by the city, had cost from $1800
to $1900 less than the estimate—
something unusual in building, at the
present day.
September's Health Report Good.
The report of the city physician,
O. H. Radkey, for the month of Sep-
tember was especially interesting at
this time, as it showed that there
was hot a single case of influenza or
pneumonia. Death’s from typhoid
and tuberculosis were eight, two from
typhoid and six from tuberculosis.
For the month of September there
were reported 61 births and 47 deaths.
Of these, 30 male and 24 white fe-
male children were born, 4 negro males
and 3 negro females. Twenty-two
white males, 16 white females, 4 negro
males and 5 negro females was the
death toll.
Most of the deaths occurred in old
age, -the number between 80 and 90
years old being 6, and between 70 and
80 being 9.
Between 1 and 5, there were 4
deaths, and under 1, 2 deaths, showing
that infant mortality is on a de-
crease.
Draft Calls Are
Held Up for Time

All -movement of drafted men to
Texas camps for this month has been
suspended op account of the influenza
epidemic. This is done by Provost
Marshal General Crowder upon re-
quest of MJjor John C. Townes, su-

.THE STUMP:
Lieutenant Kinsey came here about
ten days ago to accept applicants for
the steel tank corps, stopping tempo-
rarily at the Driskill Hotel, afterward
announcing that he would have head-
quarters at the Chamber of Com-
merce The lieutenant did not re-
main here long, however, but went on
to San Antonio. I
A list of names has just been handed
out of those whom he has recently
recruited. Among the list is the name
of Andrew Jackson (Jack) Speegle of
Austin. So far as is known, Mr.
Speegle is th* only man who made
successful application from this city.
Now that Spanish influenza is rav-
uging the country, it would be well
tor every family in Austin to use an
old fashioned remedy which is consid-
ered by lots of people who have tried
it to be almost a cure-all, especially
in rendering the human system im-
mune from an attack of almost all con-
tagious diseases.
Go to any drug store and get a 15-
rent can of old-fashioned pine tar and
put a tablespoonful into a pint cup
nd poun over it a pint of boiling water
•nd let it statid until the water tastes
irongly of the tar and then take a
tablespoonul, or more, of the -water
hree times a day.
Keep it up as long as there is any

To the Editor of The Statesman:
It is the duty of city officials to
guard the health of citizens. When
abnormal conditions arise extraordi-
nary precautions are necessary. But
care must be taken on such occasions,
est emotionalism rather than reason
be at the helm. With all due respect
to the wisdom of the city officials, I
believe the closing of the schools was
i mistake. It threw upon the streets
of the city thousands of children who
will be now more exposed than ever
before to catch, the prevailing influ-
enza. Children arc by nature gregari-
ous. Hence they will come in perhaps
closer contact during vacation than if
they were at school. Dr. Dill Robert-
son. health commissioner of Chicago,
and a man of eminent standing in the
medical profession, advised . against
closing the schools of the city of Ch-
cako, in spite of the prevalence of
more than 100,000 cases. "Keeping
the schools open," Dr. Robertson said,
"is having the effect we believed it
would have. "With all suspected case
excluded from the classroom, the chii-
uren are better off than they would be
<( we closed the schools and they were
tree to roam wherever they chose.”
The exclusion of all suspected cases,
attention to ventilation and sanitary
conditions would, no doubt, be far more
efficacious in checking the spread of
the grippe than the drastic means
adopted. But there is another s'de to
the question: The educational demor-
alzation, occasioned by the indefinite
dismissal of the children. And this is
no trifling matter* and the sinister in-
fluence of it will be felt for months,
if the closing of the schools was a
mistake, the closing of the churches
seems to be a bigger one, when we
consider how slight the chances are of
catching the epidemc in them, com-
pared with other places which have
not come under the ban of the city
officials. In the churches the ventila-
tion is of the best. If there is any

Civilized nations, however, will find other ways to punish in-
fractions of the Law of Nations than by holding soldiers responsible
for acta which they must commit or be punished for disobedience
to their superiors. '
It is not to be expected that the law-loving countries of the
Entente will allow the difficulties in the way of enforcing conven-
tions in which States join as States to stand in the way of justice.
Already there is evidence that these countries will insist upon some-
thing more than Germany’s surrender. They will insist upon a com-
plete vindication of law.
A way may be found under the well-recognized rule that in
return for the inherent rights conceded one sovereign State by others,
that State owes the duty to maintain a government which will guar-
