NORWEGIANS ARE
SEVERELY CRITICISING
GERMAN AMBASSADOR
(Rv Associated Press. l

Christiania, June. 10 The criti-
cisms of the action of Count Won
Oberndorff. the German ambassador
to Norway, in addressing the Nor
wegian people through the General
Press Bureau in letter at which
the newspapers took offense, has
been even more widespread than was
indicated in the cable reports.
From the outbreak of the war
Count Won Oberndorff is said to have
attempted to exercise strong pres
have been successful in keeping it
from publishing criticisms of German
methods of warfare and the treat
ment of Norwegian merchantships.
particularly His influence Though
the Norwegian foreign Office was
said to have been indicated by occa-
sional notes from the department of
foreign affairs. requesting thae crr-
tain reports unfavorable to Germany
were not to be mentioned in a criti-
cal light. for the sake OF Norway s
neutrality.
The torpedoing of the Iusitania
was the first occasion on which the
Norwee ian press voiced it's criticisms
of German methods, and the articles
that followed treated of the incident
in strong terms 1t appears that the
coincidental receipt of two annony-
nous letters by Count Won Obern
dorff concerning the emperor of Ger
many led the ambassador to issue an
address to the Norwegian people
through the General Press Bureau :.
Some of the leading papers refused to
publish his statement, while those
who did print it accompanied it with
adverse comment on the propriety OF
his action.
! One of the examples of the ort'
spoken way in which the newsoa , RS
treated the incident Is seen IL the
Norwegian Shipping Gazette, which
says:
"Wlhcn the rcprcse sentative OF tn
German emperor chooses TO address
the Norwegian people over the hea'
{. King Haakon and his Cabinet. h.
has thereby relinquishcd the rosoec

WHY WAR BONUSES
ARE ASKED FOR
(By Associated Press. }


London, June 10-4The reason
why workers who remain at their
places in British industries are ask
ing for war bonuses is explained by
Secretary Robert Williams of the
National Transport Workers Fed
GRAFTON, who says that while the
real need of the workers is to meet
the increased cost of living, the en-
ployers are reaping exceptionally
large profits, instead of suffering
from the war Although 10000
members of the Seamen's Union have
gone to the war. the merchant ship
owners are operating to such ad-
vantage that they charge six times
the normal sums for carrying
freight. While 100000 trade union
lists altogether are bearing arms in
Britain's defense, the millers have
increased their profits four-fold.

while it was proceeding down the
channel at rate of about eleven
knots. "Wd had just sat down to
tea he said, "and the chief engi
neer was saying grace according to
our custom. lie had just uttered the
words, For what we are about to re-
ceive may the Lord make us truly
thankful, when there came an awful
crash 1t was the torpedo"

The beautiful Elita Cooper, a society girl of San Jose. was married to Frank Herman, a civil engineer and society man of the same place, in 1905, but after eight years of happiness Mrs. Herman teld her husband that she no longer loved him, it is said and that she wished hcr freedom so that shc might marry Howard IIuggins. an old sweet heart of hers and close friend of her husband.
 The story goes that Herman call cd his friend Higgins to his home told him that Mrs. Herman was in love with him and that he would ar range for divorce. The divorce was granted in August, 1914, on grounds of wilful desertion.
 Shortly afterwards Herman, his divorced wife and Huggins were seen together frequently.
 Two weeks before the marriage here a few days ago, the three met on the golf links at the San Jose Country club and played golf to- gcther At that time, 1t is said, the arrangements for the wedding of MT. Huggins and Mrs. Herman was ar ranged.
