Communication to Germany Framed in Explicit Lan- guage, Leaves No Further Room for Doubt or Mis- understanding
ARBITRATION OF
 FEBRUARY NOTE
Right of Visit and Search Admitted, But Passengers and Crew of UnaImed Vessels Must Be Removed to Place of Safety
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcHl

WASHINGTON, June 6-The pres ident's note to Germany will be cabled Amba ssador Gerard Monday night or early Tuesday. The delay it is said, is due to the presidents S desire to make the phraseology so explicit and unmistakable as to leave no room for doubt, or further argument as to the position of the United States, that the right of visit and search may be exercised. but that passengers and crew of unarmed ships on which neutrals are voyaging must be transferred to safety before the prize is destroyed by a belligerent warship.
 Officials familiar with the contents of the note said it was a forceful reiteration of the principles express ed in the note of February tenth. when the government announced # would not admit the right of the German admiralty's proclamation of a war zone to infringe in any way on the rights of neutrals to travel on the seas ir peaceful merchant men, and that Germany will be held to strict accountability for violation of American rights.

TERNEUZEN, Netherlands, June 6- This little fortified Dutch town, in ordinary times a customs office of mi nor consequence, has come to be the principal port of communication be- tween the Netherlands and Belgium. As rail communication with Antwerp is so uncertain as to practically cut off that most fertile land, before it's decimatiOn by war. the most populous section of all Europe which lies about the Bel gian city of Ghent it's sole outlet by canal or rail to Terneuzen. thence by boat across the Scheldt to Flushing. thence again by rail to Rotterdam. Am sterdam and The Hague, or by the the outer world.
 As the export of almost everything produced in Belgium has been forbid den by the military authorities in 0c- cupation, TerneuZen is not in danger of being swamped by the sudden influx of trade. At least one curious product of Belgium intensive agriculture, however is still freely exported to Holland-in- deed. is even more freely exported than ever before. since there is now no de- mand for it in Belgium. This product is cut orchids. for the retail florists trade. Every day there pass through this port scores of light boxes, con- signed to florists in Amsterdam. The Hague, Rotterdam and even to Eng land. containing hundreds of orchids of many species. carefully packed in cot ton and in tissue paper.

 FRAMED HINT
 FROM WOMEN
It Will Invite the Atten- tion of the City Commis- sion to the Fact That the Board of CenSors is LOD-sided
(BY SALLY JACOBS)

The Phoenix Union of Parent Teach CT Ass ociations within the next few days will forward a petition to the city commission suggesting that a woman be given place upon the recently or ganized board of censorship of motion pictures.
 Behind the request Of the union is the united support of various women's organizations of the city. It is not with the idea of dictating that the message is being addressed to the officials, it is merely inviting them courteously to correct a matter they overlooked. No demands will be made.
 The women have no desire to antag- onize the mayor. city manager and commissioners that the ordinance names as members of the board but they feel that at least one woman should have been given recognition in a matter that concerns women vitally. They have made no plans for cam paign should their request be turned down" as that phase of the affair seems hardly probable to them. A faint hint of such a turn of the case raised a storm of protest giving rise to the idea that in the event the commission again ignored the women there would be something doing of a vastly more sen satiOnal nature.
 For a year or more the federated clubs and Parent Teacher circles have been working in quiet way to estab- fish board of censorship in Phoenix. Their efforts have been along the lines of building up" rather than tearing down" and it is inconceivable to those most interested that not only their en- deavors but their interest as mothers should have meant little or nothing to those who drew up the ordinance.

LONDON. June 6-Pursuing thei; offensive on the Gallipoli peninsula the allied forces on Friday captured and held two lines of Turkish l trenches extending along q front of nearly three miles. In Mesopotamia the British forces received from the Turks at the surrender of Amara, more than two thousand prisoners, thirteen guns. d gunboat and several bargcS and steamers. The pursuit of the Turks, who were dispersed into the marshes. continues.
 As in all trench warfare which is the character of the fighting on the Gallipoli peninsula assumed by the allies it has been found that the general advance has been hindered through inability to penetrate the wire entanglements which had no. been sufficiently destroyed by artil- lery fire. This left sections of the attacking force open to an enfilading fire and therefore part of the ground gained was given up. Some was also lost by the Turks on q counter attack. \ gain of five hun dred yards along the front of three miles of this sort of fighting. how ever. is considered satisfactory by the British.

SENATES IDEA
 LET MEMBERS
 EARN SALARY
Then It Will Be knowr How Much to Anprorri ate --- House Will Take In the Public Land Bil, Today

If the deadlock between tn. house and the senate over an appropriation bill for the salaries and contingent expenses of the legislature is to be broken. the first blow at it will have to be struck by the house The sen ate will attempt to provide for the attaches of both houses by the intro duction of a relief bill today. either for the week or else it will provide for a blanket appropriation for the salaries of the attaches The mem bers of the senate. in the circum- stances, are of the opinion that the best way to arrive at an appropria- ton for the salaries of the members will be to let the legislature run it's end and then make appropriations for the salaries to that date. Members of the house stated yesterday that another appropriation bill would be introduced in that bod ytoday and that it would more nearly meet the views of the senators than the former one did.
 The Public Land Bill
 The committee on public lands of the house will report a bill today for the creation Of public land depart ment and providing for the ad1ninis- tration of the public lands. The bill is now being printed and enough copies will be in the hands of the members of the house and senate early today. The bill will be known as d substitute and not. even in q modified form, any of the bills that were referred to the committee. An innovation has been introduced in the form of an index. making reference to the various features of the bill easy. Members will also be provided with copies of the other bills that have been introduced and marginal refer ences will make comparison with one another and with the substitute bill convenient.
 Probably the public land bill will not come before the committee of the whole before noon. II is preceded on the calendar by the Newberry county division bill over which there will probably be some contention. The consideration Of this bill and the reg ular order. including committee re ports, and the many unexpected things that the house usually finds to do is expected to take up the morning hour.
