GREAT BRITAIN TAKES
UP PROPOSAL
Confers With France and Russia Over
Pres. Wilson's Plan for Ending
Menace to Commerce.

Washington, D. G., Feb. 25.-Great
Britain has submitted to her allies,
France and Russia, the proposals made
by the United States government de-
signed to end the menace TO neutral
commerce arising from the retailatory
measures OF the European belligerents
toward each other.
Briefly, the American proposals, which
have been submitted 10 both England
and Germany, seek the elimination by
Germany of the recently prescribed war
zone around Great Britain and Ireland
with its dangers TO neutral shipping
through mines and submarine torpedoes,
and the adoption by all the belligerents
of definite policy with regard to the
shipment of foodstutfs destined for the
civilian population of their enemies
II is not expected that a reply to the
informal Communication from the Amer
lean government will be received here
for at least two days. From such pre-
limnary observations as American dip
lomatic officers abroad already have
made. there is said to be some encour-
agement in the manner Of the reception
of the proposals at London. Germany
is inclined toward an acceptance of the
suggestions. it is understood, but upon
the attitude of Great Britain depends
the next move in the situation The
strong opposition which the Scandina-
vian countries, Italy. Holland and other
have assumed toward the re-
tailatory measures adopted by the bel
ligerents, is playing a considerable part
in the situation. Although Nthe Amer
lean proposals have not been eommuni-
Gated 10 other neutrais, il may be stat
ID that practically all the neutral gov
srnments of Europe are in accord with
the Washington government.

notes between Germany and the United
States regarding Germany's proclamation
of sea war zone. The government is
still awaiting an answer to its own pro-
test to Germany.
Despite the movement in certain guar
ters in Holland in favor of the mobiliza-
ton because of the fact that industries
are being dislocated by the absence Of
the men with the colors and the added
fact that the keeping Of them and Their
families is thrown on the state, the gov
ernment is considering calling to the col
ors the recruits who are due in 1916 ~
well as further classes of the Landsturm.
At the same time the number OF volun-
teers is increasing steadily.
Extreme activity is being displayed by
the military, especially along the west
and the eastern borders of the kingdom.
As the battalons march through the
streets on their way to the training fields
the populace greets them with cheering
and the waving of hats and handker-
chiefs. Food prices are rising steadily
and the number of unemployed is grow
ing rapidly. The building trades are
all at a standstill. which makes il diff
cult for the municipalities to provide re-
lief.
