VON HINTZE SEES REAL AIM OF HUN ENEMIES IN WAR $p Conference of Emperors Polish Question Is to Be Discussed Amsterdam, Aug. 16.—At confer ences now proceeding between Em peror William of Germany and Em peror Charics of. Austria, at the Ger man main headquarters, the Po lish question will be discussed, the Vienna correspondent of the Berlin Tageblatt states definitely, accord ing to a dispatch from Amsterdam to the Central News. Baron Burian, Austro-llungarian foreign secretary, considers that the Austrian solution of the question is the only one ac ceptable to Austria-Hungary, but it is understood this solution is not acceptable to Germany. Interesting developments are expected, the dis patch says. Admiral von Hintze. German For eign Secretary, before leaving for main headquarters to take part in the conferences between Emperor William and Emperor Charles and their advisers, was interviewed by the Berlin correspondent of the Colurrne Gazette. Admiral von Hintze discussed the statement of Premier Lloyd George in Pis war anniversary message that six months ago Germany deliberate ly rejected a just and reasonable settlement proposed by the allies and that Germany discarded finally the mask of moderation toward parti tioned Russia and enslaved Rumania. Admiral von Hintze said: Discusses George Statement "Lloyd George's statement was Vague unci uncertain. Nothing is lcnown authoritatively in German political or military circles about such 'reasonable' peace proposals. "Had the entente statesmen seri ousb intended to pave the way for a p jace by understanding they could have approached Germany through the properly authorized persons with a view of discussion that would torirtj both parties into contact. There can be no question, therefore, of a 'refusal' by Germany of any rea sonable peace proposal." Admiral von Hintze reviewed the conditions of peace that had been laid down in other speeches of Pre mier Llyod George, in the messages of President Wilson and in the de cisions of the entente allied confer ence at Versailles, and the views expressed by German Chancellors and Count Czernin, former Austro- Hungarian foreign minister. He said that several German Chancellors had pointed out that the enemy con tinued to show a will to prosecute the war until the annihilation of Germany should be accomplished. "Subsequent developments have shown the same picture," Admiral von Hintze, declared. In concluding. Admiral von Hintze was emphatic in asserting that guilt for the prolongation of the war lay not with Germans but with the en- statesmen. A telegram to the Lokal Anzeiger, of Berlin, from Karl Rosner, its war reads: "For days past the headquarters Chas been the scene of important nnd fruitful deliberations by the Kaiser received his august guest at irfrvjcD-m'. Yankee soldiers billeted in a small French village which has camouflaged its streets.

J., Aug. 16.—Three hundred agents of the Department of Justice and the American Protection League went through the crowds on the ocean piers here last night and arrested all men within the draft age who could not show registration cards. Several hundred were taken into custody, but the majority of them were later released. About 100 were locked up at the Morris guard armory. Many of them declared they had registration cards but had left them at home. The raid was the most sensational in the history qf Atlantic City, and at a late hour hundreds of young men of draft age, who had been un able to show their registration and classification cards were herded upon the Steel pier and men from the Uni ted States Department of Justice were weeding them out. The report of the raid swept up and down the boardwalk shortly after 10.30 o'clock, when the raiders first closed in on the four piers. Its con firmation came when the curious by thousands swarmed toward the en trances along the boardwalk to find a cordon of men in plain clothes ef fectually preventing anyone either entering or leaving the piers. Thirty Federal agents headed by Todd Daniel, acting chief of the Philadelphia bureau, and more than too members of the American Protec tive League, participated in the raid. Their arrival at the resort was un heralded and their presence came like a thunderclap upon the hundreds of young couples who were dancing on some of the piers and diking in the amusements on others. , Four Piers Covered Four piers were covered by the Federal agents. They were Young's Million Dollar pier at the southern end of the city, the Steeplchase pier, the Steel pier tnd Young's old pier. At the time the blow was struck each place was filled.

POWDER ENOUGH TO BLOW UP THE RHINE Yanks in France Need Never Worry For I.aek of Ammunition The United States is doing so many marvelous things in the prose cution- of the war that it is difficult to keep up with her progress. Even now. many of us still fail to realize what absolutely overwhelming power is now being exerted by the nation that two years ago was taunted as "too proud to fight." "Those, however, who have been reading the Sunday editions of the Philadelphia Public Ledger for the past few weeks, have learned a great many startling facts not yet gen erally known. The Public Ledger is publishing a series of articles on different phases of our war prepara tions that bring the whole story up to date. Their information comes direct from Washington, with the approval of the War Department. In next Sunday's Public Ledger will- appear a most illuminating article on Uncle Sam's new powder factories, including a detailed de scription of the new $80,000,000 plant in Tennessee that alone is making a million pounds of "smoke less" powder every working day. If you want to keep up with what the United States is really doing to push-the war to an early and crush ing victory, read the Public Ledger every Sunday. In order to be sure of obtaining your copy, reserve it in advance by notifying the agents, M. Forney. Harrisburg News Agency or E. Hoffman.
