GLOOMY PICTURE
GIVEN OF BEGUN
Hungarian Says Hand of War
Lies Heavy on Kaiser's
Capital.
*
That the gloomy picture of conditions
in Prussia, which have recently
been printed in the Hungarian
press, are not confined to the organs
of the Opposition and the peace papers
of the party of 48 is proved,
says The New York Tirr.es by the Az
Est of April 12, which contains a
long article from its Berlin correspondent.
M. Adori.ian.
Az Est is a subsidized organ of
the Hungarian government, and it is
said that a deserted cemetery could
not be more depressing than the picture
it has permitted M. Adorijan to
draw of the capital of its ally. This
is what lie says:
"The train glided along the high
viaduct within the inner part of the
<'ity toward its heart, the Kriedrichstrasse
Station. Already we had
passed the slums, the zone which reminds
one of Seville, with its multicolored
garments hanging out of the
windows to dry. I stood at the win.
dow staring out into streets leading
straight to the center of the city.
"At first I thought it was an opical
illusion; the streets wore almost
completely deserted, as if it wen
late at night and every one had gon<
to bed. But it was not so. It was 1
o'clock in the afternoon, yet on<
could only discern a figure now ant
then in the streets. From the trail
window it seemed as if they weri
but shadows moving phantoms dowi
in the depths.. Sometimes a tram
car, then an omnibus came in sighl
but on the whole, the place^aflill
a city of the dead.
u } i i
"Loiters and the other character
fctic figures of the streets as the
were in former times have dissapea
ed and those who are to be seen wal
ing in the streets are all in a hurn
as though the days were all to
short. The terrible hardships of lil
demand ftiat those who live by the^
labor should work twice as hard s
before and earn twice as much in 01

"In tlic "morning hours the most
busy thoroughfares arc now empty
and deseretd; and at noon, when the
many offices and warehouses aro

the streets are full of women, for
thei'e are very few men among them
Xhese strange looking women who

"As in Budapest, so also in P>?
the middle classes, who form so i,n

have sunk several degrees in the socio'
scale. A certain shabiness an.!
general air of poverty characteriz
them now. F.vcn in time of peace
the men of Berlin were not much cor
' coined about their external appearance,
hut now they are conspicuous
ly unkempt and seedy. And the women
who gave color and life to
Berlin in happier times, the wel

M. Adorijan then relates how on
? tho day of the German chancellor's
statement in the Reichstag on the
Russian revolution rumors were filed
that some very important statement
y would be made, how excited crowds

DON'T KNOW WHAT

It appears from news which leaked
out of Germany, in spite of the unusually
close censorship, that the German
officials are telling their men
and women that the American troops
will cut little figure in the big war.

to listen to such foolish assertions.
The funniest part of it is that they
claim that Americans can't think
quick enough. What a joke! That's
our reputation?quick to think. The
Germans will find that out soon
enough, in the meantime, we at home
should get ready for the big drive.
Of course wc all can't go to the
front but we can do our bit in just as
important a manner right here at
h< me. Let us keep fit to carry or
the industries of the nation, till the
scil, work the mines, and keep the
ammunition flowing to the front in o

WHAT THE RED CROSS IS.
First:?A volunteer organization
started in Switzerland in 1861, and
chartered in 1S64. Recognized by all
nations as safe from attack in time of
war, and now the only means of car'
ing for the sick and wounded soldiers,
1 and caring for those unprovided for
! by reasons of war, and recognized by
the United States as the onlv means
that exists to meet the requirements
arising from war.
WHAT IT DOES,
k It cares for the pooi* and needy?
i both in a devastated country and
; v/hen necessary cares for the families
f of soldiers at the front. The sur
geons, both army and volunteer, and
nurses work through this organiza*
i tion, just behind the firing line and
} at the base hospital, to which the
, wounded and sick are finally carried.
It is an accredited organization

country, and looks after, as far as
possible, the welfare of prisoners.
In the L'niter! States there are now,
in the beginning of the war, 10,000,000
women working voluntarily and
patriotically, making everything
r.eedCul for hospital uses. In every
community, county village, town and
city a brunch of the Red Cross exists,,
all active according to- th.e interest
aroused in this great work of necessity
for those who are fighting and'
being wounded and killed, and thai'

ns, and their life and property, etc.

Surgeons and nurse- are volunt^erini;
by the thousand and are now in
the trenches, and many are now trying
to care for the wounded and

Our mun are now at the front, and

Every account of a battle?the

should ask the question?"Have we
done our duty in providing for these
n;"n.?our men who fight for us."
It is estimated that it takes $20,00
to bring a wounded man off a battle
field and get him well, and just how
many $20.00 the RED CROSS has,
just so many men they can promptly
care for. No one can properly afford
to give them a sum they will not feel.

neighbor's boy, who is or will surely

Contribute liberally and see that
others do likewise. We mustvdoour \
duty and see to it that others do
theirs, or make it known in plain
terms that they are known and regarded
as shirkers*
The RED CROSS is the one means
of those who cannot fight doing seme
thing for those who are flighting, and
the demand for this cause should
find full response. ,
