Women air-raid victims in England going home after hospital treatment (above) and a mother with her injured child. Recent German air-raids on England have had their usual toll of children and women. The perfection of. warning systems and "sound bombs" however, has done a great deal to prepare the people before a raid and they are not so greatly feared as earlier in the war. The British airplanes and anti-aircraft guns are proving more effective in every raid and , in the latest the German fleet was driven away before it was able to reach London.,

HOPE ALIENS

Otherwise Heavy Burden will Hit Native-Born Americans. WASHINGTON, July 26. Measures to force alien ,"!ekeri" Into service will be before Congress wlthla a week, leaders said yesterday. Men of draft ag-e ln Gary, who approximate 10,500, are anxiously watching to see what is to be done at Washington regarding alien registrants. There are 4,300 of them in Gary, which would leave military burdens to be assumed by 6,200 native Americans, naturalized Americans, and first paper Americans, who probably constitute 3,200 of the latter class. Affects Zast Chicago. If the aliens are exempted it will be a hard blow to all cities like Gary, Hast Chicago and others that have a large foreign population. Legislation proposed by congress calls for alien3 getting citizenship soon and thus become eligible to the draft or else go back to their own countries where they will be conscripted. In two of the Gary exemption districts it will be necessary to use up practically all the American citizens to -supply the Quota if the aliens are allowed to be shirkers. War Department Views. The State Department has ne-er been formally asked for an opinion upon the treaty obligations of this country ln relation to alien exemptions. The War Department has proceeded upon the assumption that all foreigners, except of an enemy character, should be Included in the operation of the draft, leaving their rights as foreigners to be afljudicated later. Officials of the State Department have prepared a memorandum which probably will be used as the basis for the regala. tlons of the exemption boards. This MUTE (?) ARRESTED. Hammond police got the "goods" on Peter Evans, an East Hammond mute, who has been suspected as being- a crook for some time., last night, when he was arrested for picking the pockets of two men. taking $36 in all. Evans .... ,,!T.(l over to the Superior court under 11.000 bond by special Judge Floyd Murray ln court today. Evans had returned with Adam Ow.tr tn hi auto from Hegewisch and en route frisked the pockets of one of the members of the party, iaier ne took $2 from Owanak. Then he was arrested. He denied the chargre in court, makingsigns indicating that he was in bed at the time. HE WAS AFRAID. George Kovatcho said: "I carried a gun. I was afraid." c -i-i t A cr a ptrtvrf furrav 1n citv court today answered: "It's going to cost you du ana cuais iu. veins ma.jvt. Hereafter leave your gun at home." Kovatcho was arrested last night on two charges for carrying a gun and for attempted rape on a two-year-old girl. The latter charge was dismissed, the evidence being weak, although it proved the man's degeneracy. CORNER STONE LAYING Rev. J. C. Parrett, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, is arranging a program for the corner stone ceremony of the new $50,000 edifice on South Hohman street at Highland street.

DRAFTED

memorandum outlines the international aspects of the question and suggests various lines of policy which may be adopted by the administration. Some Exempt by Treaty. The memorandum states in effect that subjects of Japan, Serbia and Italy are absolutely exempt from military service for this government h.ecause treaties Between the Vnited States and these coun tries specifically provide that nationals of the contracting parties shall not be taken for military service against their will. The memorandum presents no other hard and fast rulings, but suggests that the aliens of other friendly countries may be called under the draft, provid ing they have announced their intention of becoming American citizens by tak ing out their first papers. As a matter of policy the State Department is opposed to having the war department attempt to force any foreigner into the National Army unless the consent of his government is re ceived. Informal conversations covering this point have been carried on by the state virtually all of the allied governme nts virtually all of the allied governments, and it is believed that most of tfiem will agree to have their nationals draft ed in this country or deported to their homes, where they may be taken under the conscription laws. Xconomlc Aspect. . Another consideration which has prompted the state department in urging conversation on proposals to draft aliens or to deport them if they refuse to join the army, is the fact that their labor may be needed in civil pursuits in this country. Soon after the conscription bill was passed by Congress thousands of Mexicans who were "employed in mines on the American side of the border crossed to Mexican soil in a hurry because they feared the draft. As a result the operators complained to the administration that they would be compelled to close down their plants unless the Mexicans were guaranteed against conscription. filled De Luxe theater with laughter today, and William S.
