HOLLAND JOINS us
TO STOP BRITISH
ARROGANCE
English Embargo Act Will Be
Most Strongly Protested
PRESIDENT WILSON AGAINST IT
British Explanation of the Action Of
the Allies Likely to Call Forth
Vigorous American Action

Washington, March 16.-The United
States Government will protest in
strong terms against the application
to legitimate American commerce of
the new and unprecedented form Of
blockade, announced by England,
France, and Russia to stop all neu-
trail commerce with Germany.
This is indicated by President VII
son himself today, and the impression
was strengthened by a statement
made tonight by Senator Walsh OF
Montana after leaving the White
House
The Senator said that the British
action had no precedent In law or his
tory, and that an unusually vigorous
protest should be made against it, He
spoke of the general regret among
Senators now that before the laot
Congress had adjourned, power had
not been given to the President to de-
clare embargoes on exports from the
United States to the belligerents. He
added, however. that he had no idea
that the President would call an extra
session for that purpose.
1t seems likely that Holland also
will join in protest against the Al
lies pQfseEsQ Chevalies Van Rappard

opened negotiations at the State De-
partment today to determine what ac
ton could be taken by the United
States and the i,etxssiah6s 70 obtah

i've strange chickens stalking about
Lewis wondered where they could have
come from. and tried to shoe them
away, but the chickens baked at being
shooed, and seemed to be trying to
pick up an acquaintance with the other
Lewis chickens.
At length Mr. Lewis noticed that
when shooed in a particularly violent
manner. they would run towards the
wagon. as IL that meant nome to them.
Upon examination Mr.. Lewis found
that the chickens had evidently gone
TO roost on the reach" Of the wagon
while 1t was in the feed yard in Mar

that they had stayed there. The result
was that those five fowls had perched
themselves on the narrow reach and
ridden all the way from Marshalltown

miles or more The chickens are of
the variety known as mixed" but
Lewis thinks they are worth keeping
even If they did steal ride.
