WOMEN ASK AID, and
ARE FORCED TO AIR
TROUBLES TO WORLD

Forced to parade their finan-
ial and domestic troubles in full
detail before the world, 22 women
made application for relief today
before Superior Judge Card un-
der the mothers pension law.
AS this law is practiced, the
mother who wishes to keep her
children in her home instead of
sending them to some institution,
Is entitled to receive aid.
But instead of a secret hearing,
as in juvenile cases, where the
judge and other officials could be
told the inner secrets of the fam
lily misfortunes, the mothers are
forced to take the witness stand,
and tell, so all the world may
hear. the humiliating details Of
their domestic lives.
More than one woman sobbed
on the stand today as she told of
desertion by husband or recited
for the benefit of the ,court-and

This seems to have given Won Bernstorff and the
kaiser the opinion that the German American was a
German first and an American afterwards.
But following the torpedoing of the Lusitania and
the sending Of President Wilson'S note, there was a
change The hyphen and what had preceded it were
forgotten. The German American became an Amer
lician, pure and simple, an American to the last
It is that change, Enthusiastically plain, which no
doubt Count Won Bernstorff has observed.
He has been unable to make the kaiser within his
ring Of STEEL see it, because of imperfect of
communication. So that is why he is sending an en-
voy to describe the change in person.
Hoch, say we to the American
cestry.

 Five governments of Europe were reported today to be actively in the wheat market on this side of the At lantic in addition to larger number of individual buyers from foreign fields than ever before known The result was figured to be eXportation at the rate of S.000000 to l0,000.00l bushels a week, so that if continued not a bushel Of wheat may be left for export in April May or June the three months preceding the harvest of the first of the new domestic crop.
 While the wheat market here was today in blaze of excitement, the minority of farmers who still own wheat were said to be in many cases hanging on for S2 bushel just twice the general idea under normal con- ditions Approximately 25 per cent of the 1914 crop is estimated by eX- perts to be still in the hands of the farmers.
