WEIRD ENTREATY fO PEOPLE
MADE RY ItELOIAN MAYOR. ’
One of the strangest and most weird
public appeals that bus been made dur- :
lug modern times in a civilized country
recently emanated from a Belgian mag
istrate. it is pathetic in tone and start
ling, being a serious prayer that any
subject determined upon suicide use
either poison or a rope in ending his life.
The reason for tills remarkable utter
ance is to be found in the regulation
imposed by the German authorities in
Belgium says a writer In Popular Me
chanics.
At the time the country was formally
occupied by the enemy, orders were is
sued that all lire arms in the posses
sion of the Inhabitants be turned over
to the proper officials. Severe punish
ment was provided for those falling to
obey the command. Now, however, it
Is asserted that whenever a lire arm Is
found by the authorities, the owner, if
In- can be located, is imprisoned and the
community fined for Ids misdeameanor.
Recently a man in a small village kill
ed himself with a gun. The commun
ity Is reported to have been fined $2,500
—a staggering sunt to townsmen in the
starving village. And it was the mayor
of the place who posted the public an
nouncement directed to those contem
plating suicide.
