COMMANDER RECALLED
NOT IRRITATE BELCIUMS
AMESTEHDAM, Aug. 28— Gen Von
Krawell, military commander of Brus
sels, has been recalled to Berlin as
the result, it is reported, of disagree
ment with General von Bissing as to
the administration of affairs in the
one time Belgian capital. The form
er, it is said, was in favor of conciliat
ing the Belgian population, while von
Bissing believed in a stricter displine.
Matters came to a crisis when the
Government issued an order that no
Belgian should be allowed to wear the
Belgian or allied colors. Von Kra
well protested that such a measure
could be of no possible benefit, and
would merely irritate the populace.
He declined to put the order into ef
fect, whereupon von Bissing asked
Berlin to recall the commander.

ITALY OBJECTS
ROME, Aug. 28—The Roman press
has joined vigorousiy in the chorus of
protest which is going up from every
1 country in active war, against the
difficulties of the censorship. Aside
from the fact that the censors are
military men, and unable to judge
matter from a newspaper viewpoint,
embarrasment is caused because there
are several distinct bodies of censors,
some of whom allow certain news to
pass while others suppress it.
An effect of the censorship on Roman
papers, is that the Milan Journals are
finding great favor in the capital. The
reason is, the Milan censor is very
liberal, and the Roman censor severe,
the consequnce being that the Milan
papers are often the first to bring
news to Rome. The latest and most
notable example is that of the Pope’s
Interview with the correspondent of
the Paris Liberte. The Corrlere Delia
Sera published it in full, while no
Roman paper was even allowed to
mention it, but when the Milan paper
arrived in Rome, the censorship on
the interview was finally lifted here.
The Roman papers do not object to
the suppression of military news,
w'hich might even indirectly help
Italy’s enemies, but much is censored
wrhich is not military news at all.
The newspapers here are also con
fronted with the mystery of the fact
that some foreign countries are allow
ed to have Italian news two or three
days earlier than the Italians them
selves get it.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28—Red Cross
advices received here state that the
famine conditions are dally proving
worse in Mexico City. Not only in
the city, where it is most easy to re
lieve the sufferers, but in the sur
rounding country the conditions are
in describably bad, the famished peo
ple subsisting on herbs and grasses.
In the capital itself at least one-fourth
of the entire populations is applying
to the Red Cross officials for relief.
The resources of the organization are
taxed to the utmost and many more
hundreds and thousands of dollars are
needed before the situation can be
adequately relieved. The committee
are considering the Issuing of a new
