PROBLEMS OF
NEUTRALITY
Discussed by President Will
son and His Cab
met
THE CABLE AND
THE WIRELESS
Proposed Loans to Warning
Nations Also Receive
Consideration

Washington. Aug 5.-Two important
problems involving the neutrality OF the
United States during the European war
were before President Wilson and his
advisors at conference with the members
of the cabinet yesterday
One was to apply to all cable officers
in the United States the same censor
ship which recently was placed on radio
stations, to prevent neutral territory
from being used as base for the trans
mission of military or naval information
to the warning European nations.
The other problem involved the grant
ing of permission to American bankers
to float loans in this country for any OF
| the countries involved in the European
war.
While President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan had practically agreed that an inn
partial enforcement would require cen
sorship of cables as well as wireless, yet
injection of a new phase postponed final
decision until yesterday This is the
ain could evade the censorship at cable
Offices in the United States, by sending
all her messages by telephone, telegraph,
mail or messenger to Canada for trans
mission through Canadian cables at Hal
flax, n. S.
Protests based on articles VIII of The
Hague convention have been lodged by
the German government against any at
tempt TO control the German wireless
stations at Sayyille, L. T., and Tuckerton,
N. j., and by the Mareon company.
Administration officials are satisfied that
the government is entirely within its
rights in adopting any measure neces-
sary TO preserve its announced attitude
of strict impartiality in the war. 1t was
that after the cabinet meet
ing the administration decision was to
be conveyed to the German charge DAT
flares.
The loan question was upon an inquiry
through the state department by ]. ?.
Morgan g. company as to whether the
hotation Of loan Of several million dol |
lars by that concern to France would be /
4 violation of neutrality. Although |
American neutrality statutes do not |
provide against loans TO foreign nations /
md no international agreement exists /
for branding it as a violation of neu-
Irality, vet it il President Wilson's be-
lief that if allowed serious misunder-
standing might ensue in Europe as to
he real attitude of the American gov
and people toward the warning
lations Potent reasons for discourage
ne the floating Of loans, the president
believes, are that the American govern
nent's influence ought to be exerted to
educe the length of the war rather than
Idding elements to prolong it. He fur
her is opposed to shipment of American
-old at present, when domestic financial
leeds are paramount.

MAY MARRY HIS

1t Has Cost Him s6 Already, and He
Says So More Will Show He's

New York, Aug. l5.--It looks as i
William II. Johnson, prominent resi-
dent of Sussex, n. j., and Mrs. Laura
Hewitt johnson are going to be married
three times and divorced three times
and, according to Mr.. Johnson, they are
willing to try it again.
4 expect Laura here tomorrow OF
the next day" said Mr.. Johnson Thurs
day night, "and reckon the matter
will be arranged so that the dominic
will get another two-dollar bill from
me. Why, do you know, it has cost me
six dollars to marry her three times,
but I'm a sport and am good for another
two dollars"
The couple were first married in 1887
and parted the first time in 1892. He
got divorce on complaint of deser-
tion. In 1898 Mr.. johnson was eating in
Newark restaurant, when he saw Mrs.
johnson at another table. They talked
for half an hour and then went to the
courthouse and were married.
Mrs. johnson became dissatisfied
again in 1908 and left her husband. The
following year he obtained another di.
vorce on the desertion charge. He was
travelling in Pennsylvania in 1908, when
they met again accidentally and were
married the same afternoon. That mar
riage lasted until 1918, when they sep
arated again and there was another di-
vorce.
Mrs. johnson has been living in Pater-
son with relatives, and recently she and
Mr.. johnson have been exchanging let
tiers. The fourth marriage may result.

GREAT SALT PRODUCTION.
Record Breaking Figures for 1918, Ac-
cording to Statement of U. S. Survey.

The marketed production OF salt ii
the United States, including Hawaii snC
| Porto Rico, in 1913 reached the record
breaking total Of "a 800 29s barrels Of
$50 pounds each, or 4,Sl5,902 short tons
The value Of the product was $40, l23, l39
These figures are the greatest yet re-
corded BY the United States geological
survey for the salt industry in the
United States, and they represent an in.
crease Of 3 per cent in quantity pro-
duced and Of nearly per cent in value
compared with 1912,
Salt occurs in two distinct ways-as
rock salt in beds or associated with bed
ded or sedimentary rocks, and in solu-
ton, as in sea water or in brines or Bit
terms. A very large part of the salt
production is derived by converting the
natural rock salt into brine, which is
then pumped to the surface and evap-
grated.
The two main methods of obtaining
salt are the mining OF rock salt and the
evaporation OF salt bearing solutions
Rock salt is produced chiefly by deep
shaft mining in the eastern, central and
southern parts of the United States Ac-
tive mines are located in Livingston
county, N. "; near Detroit, Mich, in
Ellsworth and Rice counties, Eans., and
in iberia parish, southern Louisiana. A
small production comes from surface
deposits in the dry climates of Utah and
California. In 1918 the marketed pro-
duction of rock salt in the United States
was ,062, 29l short tons, valued at 81
96s, 567.
The process employed at the present
time in the manufacture of salt by evap-
grafton, steam evaporation, and vacuum
pan evaporation. Salt is made by one
or more of these processes in the great
of the salt-producing states
California is unique among these states
in that the great bulk of the salt pro-
iuced in the state comes from sea water.
