BRITISH TO FORCE SERVICE
No Effort Will Be Made to Rely Upon
Volunteers in Africa-Solomon
Island Taken.

London, Jan. "A dispatch to Reu-
ter's Telegram company from Cape
Town says that Walfish Bay, on the
southwest coast of Africa, was reoc
cupied Christmas day by a strong
British force without opposition.
1t is officially announced that the
government intends to commander
men for service in German Southwest
African and IN the Union of South Az
RIGA.
As a reason for this action it is
pointed out that Lieutenant Colonel
Maritz ia attempting to return with
German requirements to stir up the
rebellion afresh.
In view of this danger of invasion
it is necessary to employ a much
larger force than at first was intended,
in order to destroy the rebel forces
so they never again can menace the
peace of South Africa.

Shows Situation Is Critical.

Not only is the situation q critical
one to the commercial interests of the
United States, but many of the great
industries of this country are suffer
ing because their products are denied
long markets in European
countries.
The government of the United
States still relying upon the deep
sense of justice of the British nation,
expresses confidently the hope that his
majesty's government will realize the
obstacles and difficulties which their
present policy has placed in the way
of commerce between the United
States and the neutral countries OF
Europe, and will instruct its officials
to refrain from all unnecessary inter
ference with the freedom of trade be-
tween nations which are sufferers.
In conclusion it should be i'm
pressed upon his majesty's govern
ment that the present condition of
American trade with the neutral Eu-
ropean countries is such that if it
does not improve it may arouse a
feeling contrary to that which has
so long existed between the American
and British peoples.
The attention of the British gov.
eminent is called to this possible re-
suit of tSeir present policy to show
how widespread the effect is upon the
industrial life of the United States and
to emphasize the importance of remov-
ing the cause Of complaint.

MALTED MILK ONLY HOPE
FOR MILK INDUSTRY

A change from condensed and
evaporated to matted milk pro.
duction is the only hope held out
under the Democratic free trade
tariff by H. E. Miller to those e1
gagged in the milk industry in
the Pacific Northwest and even
this alternative may give but a
temporary impulse to the trade.
Mr.. Miller, former United Stat
es consul in China, was recent
ly commissioned by the Univer-
sity of Oregon to ascertain the
reason for the depression in the
milk industry in that state and
his thorough study of the sub
ject has convinced him beyond
a doubt that the stagnation is
due to the foreign competition
engendered by the Underwood
tariff law, which placed con-
densed milk on the free list, while
at the same time taxing the manr
facturer for his raw materials:
sugar and tin plate-and giving
no refund for the consumption
thereof. This is typical ex-
ample Of the Underwood Idea,
which, briefly stated, is taxation
