AMERICAN RELIEF SHIPS
ASSURED SAFE PASSAGE
German Government Will Support
Humanitarian Work in
Belgium.

THE HAGUE, via London, March A.
The German government has informed
DR.. Henry Van Dyke, American min
lister to the Netherlands, through the
German minister, F. Won Mueller, that
arrangements have been made to grant
safe passage through the naval war
zone to American relief ships bearing
supplies for people of Belgium.
Response to Inquiries.
Tho German communication was in
response to inquiries from DR.. Van
Dyke concerning restrictions which
Germany was said to have imposed
upon granting safe conduct to relief
ships. which was feared would make
the relief work difficult, if not almost
impossible.
The German communication is as
follows:
The German government naturally
is striving to give every possible sup
port to the humanitarian work of the
American relief commission. 1t will
permit relief vessels to pass through
tho English channel unmolested If
they are rendered recognizable by the
usual marks. which must be plainly
visible at night (namely, large painted
letters on tho ships sides and a white

year periods. and twenty-six peace
commission treaties providing for in
