Washington, March 30.-ThOusands
Of persons arc or the verge of star
walton in Mexico City, while at Toluca,
only five miles distant, there are tons
! of food unavailable because the state
department cannot get cooperative

city and out of it.
The Brazilian minister at Mexico
City telegraphed the state department
today that the international commit
tee had purchased 100000 pesos worth
of food stored at Toluca and that the
hunger conditions remained about the
same in the capital.
Officials of the department say that
the depiorable condition is clearly due
to the failure of negotiations under
taken by the state department with
Carranza and Minister Palifox of Ia
pata's cabinet. The last statements
from the department were that these
officials would agree to let food get
in. The report from the Brazilian
minister shows that the negotiations
have collapsed, or at best have never
gone further than suggestions.
The belief at the department IS
that General Obregon. when he evac-
mated Mexico City, carried away with
him all the locomotives aud cars ana
has not been willing to send any OF

German auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel

day with smoke lazily pouring from
one funnel, but with no evidence OF
an intention to dash through the ian

the limit of her stay hourly was

was guarded as a secret.
The battleship Alabama arrived to-
day in Hampton roads, and while the

stances which actuated the govern
'n9ent in sending Warship mere It
seemed apparent the purpose was MOI
TO protect the Prinz Eitel within the

that one reason for the presence OF

pROHIBITION FOR
PERIOD OF WAR
sbinet Favors Proposal. Problem
That Puzzles Being Whether to
Prohibit All IntOxicants or
Only Spirits.

London, March 3O.-The cabinet
eouncil which met today was mo-
nentous one.
Chancellor of the Exchequer LLOYD
George laid before his colleagues a
Gheme for the prohibition CT the sale
pf alcoholic drinks during the war.
which, if acted upon, will be one of
he boldest step taken by the govern
nent of this country.
The scheme was the subject of a
prolonged discussion, but no conclu-
lion was reached by the cabinet,
which will consider it at a further
meeting. sa14fough there are grounds
for sayf9xhat, the chancellor's ad-
Vocacy 01shis scheme seriously i'm
pressed HIS dcolleag CUES
As far sas can be gathered, Lloyd
George's propoAAN was in the direction
of total prohndpn durins. the period
d the warSA&AN eXcisable liquors.
That is prAsA1ny the proposal put
before hiH1A&Eke deputation from the
nip building firms on the Tyne the
Clyde and other centers.
Presents Class Problem.
II this is SO, the prohibition ought
to apply, not only to the public
houses, but to private clubs and other
licensed premises, so as to make the
Prohibition operate equally for all
glasses Of the community.
Fhere is some difference of opinion
among the ministers as to the scope
| of the reform which is to be effected.
Some believe that it is best to limit
The prohibition to the sale of spirits,
but this, while permitting the sale of
beer, also would permit the sale Of
vines
1t is felt that if serious restriction
is to be placed upon the working
glasses, the well-to-do classes would
certainly suffer an analogous restric-
|tion. Certainly, one of the largest
factors in the problem to be solved is
THAT the wealthy should suffer equally
with their poor brethren, so that class
feeling should not be aroused.
It NAV be said that the general
opinion among the government Off
|cials seems to be that further re-
|strictions OF the hours of opening Ii
censed premises will not suffice to
check the evil which is retarding pro-
|gress in the ship yards, munltion fac
ories and other vital industrial CEN
tiers.
Greatest Foe Is Drink.
Press discussions of the letter sent
by Eayid Lloyd-George, chancellor OF
the exchequer, to the Ship Owners
Federation, completes successfully in
point OF interest with the news OF the
sinking of the British liner Falabla
by German submarine with the loss
|of more than 100 lives.
The chancellor in his letter SAID:
I'VE are fighting Germany, Aus
|tria and drink, and so far as can
|see the greatest of these three deadly
foes is drink" and added that he had
Ii growing conviction that only the
everest method would be OF avail IN
Healing with the evil.
