In th* war son* where they have ar?

have made their headquarters in th
grounds of the Chateau of Robert
court. There they live In shacks and
portable houses in sight of the black?

the Herman*. From this centre they
so to twelve et I lagan which have bean
ts'4?n over for relief by the Arucra aa
collfge girls. Before the war they
i ! altogether a population of np
proitiiiaW ly 4.?'?on. Now th'.a has been
rodnced to about 1,200.

Wuny'i'f the peas tuts had money
Which they bad been able to conceal
fiom the Hermans, ami these people
wsrO quite willing to pay for articles
provided by the American girls. Oth?
er* among the ; casants were desti?
tute1 of both goods and money k for
these the American girls made chari?
table provision.
The girls brought motor trucks
and several of them are motor driv
trs.^ once or twice a week each o'*
the v'lingos in their district laaeAvge
i \i*it from a party of the girl* In
their trucks which are loaded with
necrss.tiea, and these are sold to the
peasants at cost price or less, and thus
many of the needs of the people ?r?
mst. Food, linen, clothing. furnhu;e
' .' ben utensils and live chickens
Sad rabbits are moxt desired.
I ?ther branches of assistance to the

Tjie care of the children Is one o'

The I staidMunont of a Jewish State
in Palestine?Will Thi> be One of
the Maitors in be CousJdetoil When
a Peace Conference is llcul?
The Hague. Netherlands, Oct. 11.?
(Correspondence of The Associated
Prose), ? Oho Of the RfPt ministers of
la nOutra] country publicly to express
himseif in faVOr *?t" a .Jewish Slate In
Palestine is Marie Willen Frederik
Treub, Holland's Minister of Finance,
who has frequently been called the
strong n an" of the Dutch cabinet.
, "The Jewish question is an Interna?
tional problem the solution of which
Is Of world interest." declared Minis?
ter Treub In the oourse of an Inter?
view, "if an International solution of
the Jewish question proves possible
and the formation of a Jewish state
|g one of the consequences Of thO 'uni?
versal war, I personally should be
very pleased. One of the first re?
quirements would naturaly be that
the s?? rod places of Christianity
should come under the ?ontrol of
Christian authorities or be Internat
lonallsed. Bui i do not think dim
CUltles W|ll arise on that head. Ever
, friend of humanity must desire the
rebuilding of the Jewish nation in a
Zionist sens.-. Every endeavor will
therefore have to be made in the di
rectlon of transplanting the Jewish
people to Its old place of residence, In
order to solve a question that is BO
painful for the .lews an I for the
' world. V
"it eannot yet be said with certain?
ty what questions will be discussed at
iim coming peace conference," con?
tinued Mr, Treub, in reply to an in
qplry. "Whether ths Jewish question
Will come up for dlSCUSSlon depend
on the manner in which the peace
conference is held. The question is
! whether peace negotiations will hi
regtrloted to the moat important
j points, or whether an endeavor
be made to solve all International
questions, In the hatter case, it m??
he hoped thai the Jewish question
will not be forgotten.
"Here in Holland there Is no Jew
I h question, We know no definite
anti-Semitic movement, such as exist
in Germany and even in Austria. Ev?
ery able jew makes his way equal
OS well as an able Christian in Hol?
land. Talent Is hero the only requisite
depianded for success, and with us a
gifted Jew may become a cabinet
minister. We arc proud of our tra
dltlons of freedom. Holland has n0V?
a known hatred of Jews or Jew?
ish persecutions. If wc had not been
SO philosemitlc WS should have had
no Spinoza. (The great Dutch-Jew-]
ish philosopher.)
? From a moral standpoint too, Hol?
land has an interest In a wise Solu?
tion of the Jewish question, as laid
down in the Zionist program, it Is
comprehensible that for that reason
wide circles In Turkey, and in coun?
tries ailed therewith, are also in fa?
vor of ths realisation of Elonlem.
It Hog in the line of historic develop-j
men! thai every people be offered
the Opportunity tO freely develop its
powers," concluded Minister Treub.

Villa today authorized the follow?
ing statement for the Associated
Press:
"Upon taking possession by force
I of arms of this town, which I found
I in the power Of the SOCailed consti?
tutionalists who criminally defended
it for Venustiano Carranza, the trai?
tor and despot, I think it my duty to
make the following declarations in
order thai one" more my aims and
motives may be shown tot the world
to be patriotic and noble.
??First of all l have no personal am?
bitions but my earnest desire which
I have already expressed is that my
people may obtain unity and my coun?
try peace.. To that end, I bring to?
gether the principal revolutionists
who since 19ID have been striving to
attain that end. Contrary to every?
thing they have said of me, I wish to
make it known that I will strive with
valor ami decision against the ene?
my, but i will be magnanimous in
victory, the proof of which was the
recent occurrence here of turning
over to the Carranza consul In Presi?
dio the Carranza wounded who wore
made prisoners and also the release
of prisoners incorporating them in
our army because they decided they
Were on the wrong side.
"I wish now to make a solemn call
lo all Mexicans- in general and in par?
ticular to Carranza soldiers to notice
how I have conducted myself in com
; parison to the conduct of Francisco
Murguia in the State of Chihuahua.
"He has said many times that T aftl
fighting for fortune only, but I wish
to make it public on this occasion that
I have never fought for fortune's
sake, and it is absurd and ridiculous
to accuse me of it.
"I repeat that my strongest desires
arc and will be to make happy and to
unite the people of my country."
