UNITED STATES
TO ACT ALONE

Washington, Aug. 9.--The United
States will continue to act alone in
representations to Great Britain re-
garding neutral trade. 1t was learned
last night that negotiations begun by
the Swedish legation here to secure
American cooperation in proposed
concerted action of neutrals to protest
against the British orders in council in
so far as they work hardship on neu-
trail commerce. have brought no re-
suits. --.
The most recent Swedish proposal
contemplated identical notes OF pro-
test by neutrals, nat rejection by the
American state department having met
a previous suggestion for a Joint note.
Negotiations are still in progress, but
have failed so far to develop COM
mon ground upon which action could
be based.
Some details Of the Swedish position
as to trade interference by Great Brit
ain. lit. is said, are inconsistent with
the contentious of the United States in
exchanges with the London foreign of
flee. Reports as to strong German
sympathies in Sweden also are believ-
ed to have been considered by the state
department, although the formal rea-
sons given for refusal to join in the
are largely technical.
: The Swedish legation has been
pressing the proposal vigorously. The
FIRST plan, contemplating joint protest,
by the United States, the Scandinavian
countries and Holland, was rejected on
the ground that the United States
could not involve itself in any agree
ment that might be interpreted as con-
tracing entangling European alliances.
The new proposal then submitted sug-
gested that all neutral nations whose
commerce was suffering through the
British war measures should agree
upon a policy and act in cooperation,
sending identical notes to London and
generally concentrating their efforts.
Negotiations progressed to a point
where both the Swedish and Ameri-.
can governments prepared tentative
drafts of proposals to be sent to Great
Britain. The Swedish proposals were
submitted to the state department, but
were found to be unsatisfactory in
numerous details. The departments
informal statement TO the Swedish
minister, it is said, makes it clear that
negotiations are making no progress.

Exhibition in Ninth Grade Room Was
Surprising and Attractive = Wide
Variety of Articles

An exhibition of Christmas work of
the children of the grades of the pub
lie schools in the ninth grade room of
the Main street building yesterday af-
ternoon proved an attraction for many
parents in spite of the busy season in
most households. Not only was it an
attraction, but the extent and variety
of the accomplishments of the children
was a surprise to many.
There were little napkin rings of raj
fla, paper chimneys, each with its San
ia Claus, and other articles from the
smallest and youngest children in the
schools. Then there were gay paper en-
velopes, pin cushions, basketry work, a
notable exhibit of book binding, some
especially attractive stencil work,
wooden hat stands, plant stands and
some enameled reed baskets and trays
equal to similar articles sold in the
stores for fancy prices
The exhibition was in charge of
Miss Marguerite Benedict. supervisor
of drawing and manual training.
