Washington, Get. 1.-The state de- parunent made public today the text of a note received from Sir Edward Grey, oenying that Great Britain while interfering with American trade With such neutral counties as Holland, Denmark, Sweden ands. Nor way, is taking advantage of the block ade to increase her own trade with those countries.
 The British foriegn secrNary ad- mits that exports of many staple arti- cles from Great Britai n to these coun- tries have increased greatly since the war, but he contends that American imports of the same articles have shown still greater increase

DESTITUTE FAMILY
 tI0OKWORN VICTIMS
Contributions of Fugl,iige Sought by Charities fer Widow and Five
 Children.

Flo "a widow and five children, ab- solutely destitute an dsufering from hookWorm, the Associated Charities Is seeking contributions of articles of furniture and kitchen utensils suffi- cient to make them comfortable while the yare being treated under the care of the Charities.
 The husband and father recently died. The woman is unable to bear the expense of itlrn 5hed rooms, and so the Charities has secured cheap house in which the family will be placed as soon as the furniture is donated. The woman is anxious to help herself, and proposes to do whatever work she can. Her case is not serious.
 Two of the children are mere skel- etons, but physicians who have offer c dto treat them are confident that only little time, with proper food and care, will be required to make them strong and healthy. As soon as this happens, the family will be plac- cd on a farm where the children can help the mothers employer. The Charities has already secured some furniture needed, and now desires a kitchen table and oil cloth, safe or cupboard, wash board, kettle and irons, kitchen utensils, bedding, sheets ana pillow cases, a few chairs, a wardrc of some kind and bu- reau or 6sbsser. The articles need not be new or costly. The Charities hopes for immediate response to this appeal, for the need is urgent.
