western Newspaper Union News Service
London, Aug. 3.-Four great powers
OF Europe Hungary. Russia.
France and Germany-are now en.
gagged in actual warfare, but two Of
them. Germany and France. not only
have not declared war against each
other, ~ far ~ - known here, but
have not even severed diplomatic 10
lations. This In despite the fact that
Germany's ultimatum TO France has
either been ignored or rejected.
The explanation Of this would ap-
pear to be that Germany and France
are each seeking to throw upoa the
other the onus Of beginning the war.
In fact, while the nations Of Europe
are flying at each others throats, they
are vieing with each other In protest
ing their desire to maintain peace. and
they repudiate the responsibility for
plunging the whole continent into
bloodshed.
In this remarkable situation. France.
according to British opinion. has the
strongest Justification. She certainly
was the last to mobilize and seems
to have taken the greatest precau-
lions to avoid frontier collisions.
On the other hand. Germany. In ad-
dition to invading French territory
without making . formal declaration
Of war. has violated the neutrality
laws by the seizure of Luxemburg and
declines to give any pledge to respect
Belgian neutrality.
It 70 difficult to see how Great Bri-
tain can avoid being drawn into the
conflict to protect Belgian and Dutch
neutrality. and on this point Premier
Asquith's official announcement in
Parliament IL awaited with intense
anxiety.
One German, force crossed the
French frontier near the village Of
Grey. between Nancy and Strassburg,
and another German detachment, prob
ably the Twentieth infantry seized the
grand duchy Of Luxemburg. neutral
territory between Belgium and Ger
many. and continued its march on the
French fortified town Of Longwy. A
dispatch from Brussels aid this force
later in the day entered France and
was hurrying In to Paris.

be permitted to cross Belgium to the

HAVE YOU HAD The GRIP?

There are certain disorders, such as the
grip, that especially debilitate and make
the body an easy prey for more dangerous
diseases. Ask those who have had the
grip regarding the present condition OF
their health and mOstO them will answer:
''Since had the grip have never been
we'll" They still have profuse perspira-
ton, the persistent weakness ofthe limbs,
the disordered digestion, shortness of
breath and palpitation of the heart caused
by the thin-blooded condition in which
the grip almost always leaves its victim
after the fever and influenza have sub
sided. They are furthermore, at the
mercy of relapses and of complications,
often very serious. In an attack of the
grip there IS rapid thinning of the
blood and not until the blood is built up
again is complete health restored.

the blood rich and red, drive out the
lingering germs from the system and
