sued the following statement;
''The destruction by the Germans of
the ancient city of Louvain was an up-
pardonable act of barbarism and van-

which there can be no atonement
"The German contention that it was,
an act Justified by war and of proper

EASTERN MILLS BUYING WOOL

1t was learned in Salt Lake last
Saturday that several, large east
ern wooden mills which usually use
western wool have dispatched tele.
grams to the west regarding the
contracting of wool by the dealers
says the Republican. This contract
ing of wool on the sleeps back
has created an unusual situation,
according to the eastern mill men,
for it means that with all the wool
in the dealers hands and the mills
having none. they would be entire
~ at the mercy IF the dealers.
In view of this and as a means of
self-protection several of the larger
eastern mills which have not here
tofore contracted for wool on the
back of the sheep have gone into
the market in order to get any sup
ply at allat reasonable prices.
Eastern wool dealers have been
most active in the western states
this winter and have contracted for
practically the entire seasons clip
for flu ures The mills are just
now realizing this and are taking
the same means in order to insure
their seasons supply.
Word also came from. London
that sales there continue to boom
along. A remarkable feature in
the London wool market so far
has been the American competi-
ton, which has been made possible
by the cutting off of the tariff on
wool. This competition is being
felt in every direction, according
to reports received by wool men
here.
The only exception to this al
most general rule has been in the
market on medium cross-breds. The
demand for this grade of wool has
been falling off, the closing rates
on this variety showing a loss this
week of / per cent from the high
est point reached by the market of
last week.

the cross-examination of George

DEATH VALLEY IS

ASSET PLANNED
