Some idea of the Importance to Rus.
STA of the control of the Dardanelles

day by John Roach, an American man
ufacturer, who had been in Petrogfsd
to bid for contracts for shell-makins
machinery. He was a passenger on the
new Russian liner Czartza. which made
the run from Archangel to New YORK
in IL days hours.
According to passengers on the Car
itza, there would be no Russian re-
treats in Galicia if the Dardanelles
were captured and open TO traffie for
the Allies.
Mr.. Roach said that Archangel was
getting and had received an enormous
supply of war material and essentials,
but that the narrow gauge, single track
railroad line 70 Petrograd was unaoe
to handle all that the ships brought IN:

M. P. HITS ASQUITH
AS TRUTH JUGGLER
Saws Premier's Statement on
Munitions Supply Was with
out Foundation"

London, June Premier Asquith' s
authority for the statement IN his
speech at Newcastle April 20 that
neither Great Britain nor any Of her
Allies was hampered by lack of mu-
nitions was again demanded Of the
Cabinet leader in the House Of Com
mons this afternoon.
SIR Arthur b. Markham, Liberal mem
Der for the Mansfield Division of Not
tirghamshire, who raised the point, at
tempted 20 heckle Mr.. Asduth. Sir
Arthur said the original statement cast
slur on Field Marshal Sir John
French.
Mr.. Asquith's only reply was that
Sir Arthur Markham was raising just
the sort of point which would be most
undesirable for both the interests OF
the army and the campaign TO raise,
and when the Premier refused TO be
drawn further Sir Arthur blurted out:
as it in the interests Of the nation
that the Prime Minister should make a
statement which is absolutely without
foundation ?"
Cries of "Shame!" and proteststions
Of "lt's the truth" led TO brief tur-

GERMANS AGREE
BELGIANS MAY
RETAIN CROPS
Chairman Hoover An
nounces Arrangement
with Gen. Won Kissing.
GRAIN ENOUGH
FOR 3 MONTHS
Potatoes Planted Instead OF
Sugar Beets-Fodder
Very Scarce.

London, June 2S-Herbert c. Hoover,
chairman of the American Commission
for Relief in Belgium, has concluded
an agreement with General Won Kissing,
Military Governor Of Belgium, prov'd-
ing that the wheat and rye crops in
the zone occupied by the Germans shall
be reserved for the civilian population
Mr.. Hoover, who returned to-day
from Brussels. said:
"The commission Is certain thaI
every we'll wisher Of the Belglans VIII
he nleased TO know that General Won
Kissing has confirmed an agreement
that the wheat and rye crops in the
occupation zone in Belgium VIII pc
left for civilians. The occupation zone
covers all of Belgium except West
FLANDERS and a portion Of East Flan-
ders. which areas are under control OF
, the active army and not within General
Won Bissing's Jurisdiction. The under
taking. therefore, does not extend to
the latter named territory.
Crops VIII Last Three Months.
Thanks to abundant seed provided
BY the commission and the industry OF
the Belgian peasants, the harvest
promises TO be very good. Normally
Belgian production of grain furnishes
sufficient breadstuffs for between two
and three months. but with the much
more economical consumption now rig
orously enforced BY the commission the
harvest yield should cover a consid-
erabiy longer period this year.
"Whlle the details Of the arrange
ment are not all settled, it is part OF
the undertaking that one-twelIth OF
the harvest yield shall be issued 10 the
people each month, the commission I'M
dertaking TO import the necessary bal
ance TO maintain the present ration.
The precise method of acquiring the
harvest is still under consideration.
NO arrangements have been made
in connection with other products. The
Belgians normally produce enough po-
tatoes to carry them through the year.
The commission, by imports in the last
two months, has managed to keep
prices under two cents a pound. New
potatoes are now available.
Potatoes Replace Sugar Beets.
Belgium ordinarily produces large
amount OF sugar beets and roots for
fodder. These were this year largely
displaced by increased potato planting,
so that there is every hope of a suf-
ficient production of potatoes. Much
the same potato situation exists in
Germany, whore full supplies appear
likely. Therefore there will be little
necessity for the German army to draw
from the Belgian potato crop.
mo arrangements have been made
with regard to fodder crops, as the
present military and economic situa-
ton in Belgium seems certain to con-
tinue for many months.
"The commission is now preoccupied
with the solution of the problem of
financing imports and the still greater
problem of supporting the destitute.
We hope to find some daylight within
the next sixty days"

.TEUTONS BLOW COLD

Cancel Chicago Lecture When
Ex.Secretary Won't Support
Arms Embargo.

Chicago, June 28.-William Jennings
Bryan came to Chicago to-day, accom-
panied by Mrs. Bryan and his secre-
tary. He left Washington with the
pleasant anticipation that he would be
using the magic voice on some ten
thousand Chicagoans tonight, talking
peace under the auspices of the leu
tonic Sons of America, but en- route he
received telegram frorl the chicago
committee Informing him that the
meeting had been abandoned.
1t was because Mr.. Bryan would not
bind himself to support the propaganda
against the shipment Of American am
munition to such belligerent nations as
could come and get it and take it home:
On this point Mr.. Bryan preferred
to support President Wilson's attitude,
and for once in his life cancelled a

Brescia, Italy via Paris. June %
Despite the Austrian reinforcements
along the whole frontier, the Italians
have entered Austrian territory south
Of Riva. on the western side of Lake
Garda. They are now within six miles
Of Riva, which Is the only important
town on the lake. II is ten miles from
Rovereto and twenty miles from Trent,
against which another force has been
operating from the south.
The Italians made their way into the
enemy's territory through the Nota
Vii passes, about 5000 feet high, de-
scended the precipitous cliffs of
Carone Mountain, over 5000 feet high,
entered the Ledro Valley and reached
the Ponale River. The Ponale runs for
five miles from Lake Ledro. which has
an altitude OF 1000 feet, to the shore
Of Lake Garda, whose altitude is 700
feet.
Capture Important Road.
This river has waterfalls. at which is
produced the electricity used at Riva,
the only important town on Lake Garda
in the hands of the Austrians. The
same electricity is used bv the Aus
trians for charging their wire entangle-
ments.
The Italians, 1t is reported. reached
a spot near Bezzeca, where in 1866 the
Garibaldians defeated the Austrians.
Thus the Italians occupied part of the
road excavated in rock. uniting Riva
with Store and Brescia. This road was
finished in 1851 and is one Of the best
examples of its kind existing.
On the mountains dominating this
road, a short distance from Riva, Aus
tria has constructed a whole system of
Notifications, the strongest being those
on the Rocchetta and ORC peaks, which
are some 5000 feet high.

The bombardment Of Malborghet con-
tinues. This laconic phrase has been
repeated daily since the bombardment
of the Austrian positions just west Of
Jarvis began, on June u. To under
stand its meaning, one must realize
that the struggle is occurring in the
very heart of precipitous mountains,
which rise between the Italians and
Austrians like a Titanic wall.
The work accomplished by the Ital-
ians in this region is described by the
head of the French military mission as
"Cyclopic" A special road has been
built for the transportation of artillery
to the peaks for the bombardment of
Malborghet Donkeys and mules were
used for carrying the guns, ammuni-
ton and provisions, and a thousand
mountaineers, even women, climbed the
heights with packs on their shoulders.

Time to Act Now.
your Excelency states in your note
of June 7 that in the event the prize
court should not grant indemnity IN
accordance with treaty requirements
the German government would not
hesitate to arrange for equitable in
demnity, but 1t Is also necessary that
the government Of the United States
should be satisfied with the amount Of
the indemnity, and it would seem to be
more appropriate and convenient that
an arrangement for equitable indem-
nity should be agreed upon now rather
than later. The decision of the prize
court, even on the question of the
amount Of indemnity TO be paid, would
not be binding or conclusive on the
government of the United States.
THE government of the United
States also dissents from the view ex-
pressed in your note that there would
be- no foundation for claim OF the
American government unless the prize
courts should not grant indemnity in
accordance with the treaty The claim
presented by the American government
is for an indemnity for violation OF

A little Southern woman dreamed
early yesterday of new plan to help
feed the starving thousands OF New
York. Late in the afternoon she had
gained promises of assistance from su-
perintendents of several apartment
houses and Of aid from about 100
wealthy families. She is Mrs. Arthur
Zelner, Of GOA West 125th Street.
Mrs. Zellner's scheme, which she so
quickly put into practical operation,is to
appeal TO the residents of all apartment
and tenement houses to set aside the
food they generally throw away and
have it collected and distributed to the
bread lines. She believes thousands. OF
tons OF perfectly good food are carried
away as garbage.

MUNICIPAL BUILDING
A WIND TANNER
Entrance Must Be Changed to
Allow City Employees to Get
Out in Comfort.

Breasting an eighty-mile gale is SIM
pie compared with trying to open the
large doors on the west side of the
Municipal Building. That was the ex-
PLANTATION given yesterday why so few
Of the 5000 city employees in the build
ing are able 70 make an easy exit.
The problem was submitted to F. W.
Perry, construction engineer OF the
Bridge Department. He has reported
that changes in the present entrances
are necessary. For a person on the in
side trying 10 get out, even when there
is no wind, there is pressure OF
twenty-five pounds to the square foot,
owing TO the vacuum formed inside the
building. This is equal to an eighty
mile gale.
Mr. Perry believes a permanent wind
shield must be constructed, and that
either revolving doors or two sets OF
doors will have TO be installed, with a
yestibule between.
