ARMY OFFICERS SAYS DANES
WANT TO KEEP WEST INDIES

New York, August 22-Sentiment in
Denmark is strongly against the sale
of the Danish West Indies, to the Unit
ed States, according to Count Freder-
lex Moltke, a captain in the Danish
army, who arrived here today aboard
the Scandinavian-American line
steamship Hellig Olav. Count
Moltke is on his way to Washington
where he will join the Danish legation
as director of army contracts.
Sentiment in Denmark does not
favor the sale of the Danish West
Indies" the Count declared. 1T is not
a matter of price but a feeling of
sentiment among the people, that has
caused such strong opposition to the
sale"
Marius |. Nyeboe, a prominent ship
owner of Denmark and a well known
Attic explorer. who is on his way o
Greenland, supplemented Count Mol
tke's statement by saying that the
sentiment in Denmark is to postpone
the sale until the end of the war.

LACK OF FOOTWEAR HOLDS UP
REVIEW OF THE GUARDSMRN

Camp Willis, Columbus, o., August
22-The old shoe problem of Ohio
troops has bobbled up again. General
w. v. McMaken, camp commander,
today called of a review of all the
soldiers In camp, declaring he would
not try to hold a review until every
man in camp was shod.
1t is estimated at least 400 men In
camp haven't had shoes issued to them
in the nearly seven weeks they have
been in camp, and hundreds of the
shoes that were issued are wearing
out, while no more shoes are in sight.
"If something is not done about the
shoes soon we will be as bad off as
when We first came to camp" General
McMaken said
The worst shortages are in the en-
gineers' battalion, Dayton; the Second
Of Ada and the Sixth of Toledo. 1t is
estimated there are at least 100 men
in each of these outfits who have
never been given shoes or whose shoes
are ready for the junk pile.
