Treason Warning Neu
Step In Propaganda
Belief Held That Notice Was Given as Signal for
German-Americans to Redouble Efforts to Grip
pie Munitions Industry Here.

The news that the German govern
ment has issued official warning that
German subjects who work in factories
in the United States making munitions
for use against Germany are guilty Of
treason Is viewed as another step In the
German propaganda Of terrorism
The notice came in the form Of
wireless dispatch from Berlin through
Sayville and said:
"An official declaration Is published
here calling attention to the fact that
Germans working in factories in neu-
trail countries. particularly in the United
States. producing war supplies for the
enemy render themselves liable to
prosecution for treason. under para
graph eighty-nine of the Penal Code,
penalizing such assistance to an enemy
with maximum of ten years imprison-
ment.' Another paragraph of the penal
code authorizes prosecution in the case
of such offense. even when committed
abroad, and it is understood that the
German courts will proceed against
Offenders"
While Germany Is absolutely within
her legal rights in issuing such a notice.
1t is impossible to lose sight of the very
strong probability that no German SUBJ

Is frank about It. and admits It free

With all the rest Of Bath Beach.
Mr. Quail Is not only quailing, but no
actually Quakes, and all because the
German freighter Magdreburg is lying
at anchor of Bath Beach, with 900
tons Of dynamite aboard. The Bath
Beach folks feel that X this charge

would be wrecked and thousands Of
lives lost.
Quail was the man in this emer-
gency. Not alone because Of the
suggestive reality of his name. but
because he is president OF the Bath
Beach Taxpayers Association. He
addre ssed an official comnunicat ton

olution from the association asking
that the freighter be moved to some
other place. His letter said that the
community was convinced that the

make anybody quail.

jects are employed In the munitions
plants in operation In the United States.
1t has been common talk that most Of
the big munitions manufacturers have
weeded out the German employees and
dismissed them. This Is particularly the
case with a large powder company and
with an automobile truck company in
Cleveland. Ohio. which suffered from
what what be called sabotage.
Recent dispatches from Belfast said
that some 5000 men in factories there
were of German birth or parentage.
1t is the belief. therefore, that the
warning was Issued solely for moral ef-
feet on the German-Americans, the more
rabid of whom will regard this as a
signal for redoubling their efforts to
cripple the munitions industry. The OBJ
1ective Of GERMANY from the start has
been to prevent the manufacture of
arms and ammunition in this country.
AS Germany is within her legal rights,
the Upited States can make no protest
against the latest action Of Berlin. The
position of the United States Government
has been that in order to maintain its
neutrality 1t must remain aloof from the
munitions traffic. having no part in II
and not recognising its existence Off
cially.
With the arrival OF the new note to
GERMANY II is belived that the fulmina
tions In Berlin for moral effect in this
country will be Of even a more spec
tacular character than ever.

Glad to Recommend
FruitOld and TrdxO
Mrs. s.Nortorth Says She Suffered
With Gdll-Stones for Several
Years Without Relief.

In a letter to Pinus laboratories,
Mrs. Rosa Norforth, Monticello, ILL.,,
says: II cannot praise Fruitola and
Traxo too highly as I consider it
saved my life. I suffered with gall
stones for several years and could
not get any relief until your prep
aration was recommended to me. It
has been six months since I took the
last bottle and feel that am en-
tirely we'll. Have anyone doubling
the merit Of your preparation write
me as will be only too glad to rec
ommend Fruitola and Traxo to any
one suffering from gall-stones."
Fruitola and Traxo are the names
used to identify two preparations
that are taken in combination. Fruit
ola acts on the intestinal organs as
q powerful lubricant, softening con-
gested masses and disintegrating
the hardened particles that cause SO
much suffering, and expelling the
accumulation with almost instant re-
lief. Traxo is a splendid tonic,
acting on the liver and stomach with
most beneficial results, and is rec
commended in connection with Fruit.
