An organization to be known as the
Publishers’ Association of Western
Pennsylvania was formed Tuesday
A note to Germany protesting
against the deportation of Belgians
for forced labor as comtrary to all
precedents and humane principles of
international practice was made pub-
lic by the state depertment in Wash-
ington.
The note was cabled to Charge
Grew at Berlin on Nov. 29, the day
Ambassador Gerard discussed the sub-
ject with President Wilson, with ins
structions that he read it to the Ger-
man chancellor personally. In making
it public, the state department an-
nounced that the interview had takem
place, but said nothing about results.
The decision to protest formally,
against the treatment of the Belgians
followed unsuccessful informal efforts
by Charge Grew, under instructions
that he say informally to the Berlin
foreign office that the deportations
were having a most unfavorable effect
Deportations Justified, Berlin Says.
The German government issued 2
statement in explanation and justifica-
tion of the transfer of Belgian labo -
ers to Germany. It says the measure
is by no means a hardship for the
laborers, but is a social necessity.
Owing chiefly to the British em-
bargo against Belgian overseas trade,
which before the war supported a
large part of the industrial population. when the newspaper publishers of the
large numbers of Belgian workers ars ! western end of the state came to-
