The German governor general In
Belgium, Gen. Won Kissing. told an in
terviewer that the special tax which
recently was ordered levied on Bel
CLANS who did not return to their
homes was not the invention of the
German administration, but was sug-
gested by Belgians.
THE governors program contem-
plates the Strengthening of local self

The Belgian Red Cross has been ask

THE HAGUE. via London, March g.
The German government has deter
mined to refuse to grant any more
safe conducts for American relief ships
to touch at English ports for coal on
the homeward voyage, according to ad-
vices received here, and it is also re-
ported on the same authority that a
permit for the return voyage to the
United States will be given only to
vessels which take the course north Of
the Shetland Islands.
It Is considered in influential circles
in Holland that the efforts Of the Amer
lean commission of relief to save the
civilian population of Belgium from
starvation Is thus threatened with i'm
mediate danger. as Rotterdam is the
only practicable port through which
the Belgians can be fed, and it is ar
gued that the relief ships must be able
to proceed to and from that port by
the direct route with a safe conduct
under the commissions flag. or the
whole work of relief Will become alb
solutely hopeless for practical rea-
sons.
