UP TO BERLIN TO
AID RELIEF WORK
London to Exact Guarantees
Food For Poland Will Not
Be Diverted to Sup
port Armies.

Chicago. Feb. 8.-That many diff.
culties must be overcome before the
funds raised in America can be used for
the relief Of sufferers in Poland, is rec
ognized here, following the publication
Of an exchange of letters between Sir
Edward Grey, the British foreign min
ister, and Herbert Hoover, chairman Of
the American commission for relief in
Belgium. The difficulty is stated in
the following quotations from Sir Ed
ward Grey's letter:
In the face of accommodating evil
dence of German and Austrian Condi-
lions in Poland. fear 1t would be i'm
possible to enter into any arrangement
with you in regard to any scheme Of
relief until the German and Austrian
governments have prohibited the ex-
port Of all foodstuffs from Russian Po-
land and have guaranteed that native
stocks of foodstuffs shall not be drawn
upon to maintain the occupying armies.
IF. and when, this were done, 1t
might be possible to come to an agree
ment with you, allowing the importa-
ton Of certain articles into Poland, in
return for undertakings on the part of
the German and Austrian governments
to supply an adequate ration and other
necessary articles and give you a free
TIE Oh I'LL SlOChS
Of foodstuffs thus made available.
But prohibition OF export and the
guarantees mentioned above must be
regarded as conditions precedent to
any further discussion, since these
measures are deemed by the situation
now existing quite independent of the
question Of imports, and the fact that
they have not yet been put into force
constitutes evidence that the German
and Austrian governments will never
cooperate in any work undertaken in
the interests Of the population of
Poland"
Speaking of the difficulties encoun-
tered in al effort to succor the starv-
ing Poles, John F. Smulski, said, today,
that the Poles in America would not
give up their fight. Mr.. Smulski is
affiliated with the American Polish Or
ganization, having to do with relief
work in Poland.
I'VE did not go into this fight with
the expectation Of winning 1t at first

QUEER GIFTS TO ROYALTY
Odd Ways In Which People Have
Shown Their Devotion to the Race
That Ruled Them.

New Year in the fifteenth century
was not an occasion which was well
coined without some regrets, for many
we're taxed to meet the requirements
of royalty on that day. Each titled
gentleman had the form and value of
his gift to the king prescribed. Regu,
lations provided that an earl should
appear at the royal presence chamber
at eight o'clock New Year morning
to deliver flve-shilling purse contain.
ing 20-shllling coins to the lord cham.
berlain for the king.
Next the earl visited the jewel-house,
where he received a ticket which en-,
titled him to a gift Of Is shillings 6
pence, the 6 pence Of which he was re-
Quired to give for box for the ticket
The same morning he went to another
office to select a piece of silver plate
Weighing about 80 ounces, but left II
until afternoon, when he returned for
1t. At that time he gave the man who
handed 1t to him 40 shillings in gold,
shillings for the box and pence to
the porter.
A young prince ten years old is said
to have given great pleasure to his
father In 1904 by presenting him with
a volume of short Latin poems. There
is a record that in 1910 a dainty little
elght-year-old princess, having a spe,
cial liking for sweets, received a New
Year present of pair of fat oxen
from the Corporation Of Coventry
Exchange.

FOOD FACTS

prominent physician down In
Georgia went through a food expert,
ence which he makes public:
1t was my own experience that first
led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food /;
and / also know from having pre-
scribed it to convalescents and other
weak patients that this food is a won
derful rebuilder and restorer Of nerve
and brain tissue, as well as muscle. 1t
improves the digestion and patients
gain, Just as did in strength and
weight, very rapidly.
Il was in. such a low state that
| had to give up my work entirely and
go to the mountains, but two months
there did not improve me; in fact
was not quite as well as when I left
home. My food did not sustain me
and it became plain that I must
change.
Il began to use Grape-Nuts and in
two weeks could walk a mile. and in
hve weeks returned to my home and
practice, taking up hard work again
Since that time / have felt as well and
strong as ever did In my life.
AS a physician who seeks to help
all sufferers I consider it duty to
make these facts public"

Milan. (via London), Feb. 8.-The
Secolo's Roumanian correspondent re-
ports q critical situation between Ru-

ing:
"Vienna and the Berlin government
have formally notified the Rumanian
government that they regard eventual
election of two Tranlyvanian irriden-
tism parliamentary candidates at
Galatz and Caracal. and the sale Of
over $4,000 carloads Of grain to Eng
land as acts hostile to the central
powers, which will take measures &C
cordingly."
The Roumanian government. accord
ing to the correspondent, replied that
the constitution does not permit the
government to thwart the election of
irridentist candidates. Concerning the
sales Of grain, the Rumanian govern
ment answered that this was to safe
guard the economic interests OF the
country.
London, Feb. 8.-The tension be-
tween Rumania and the central pow

ward Bucharest, and that there has
been a sudden concentration of men
and guns on the Bulgarian side of the
Danube, while Rumanian troops are
entrenched on the western frontier
within so yards of the Austro- Hun
garian lines. 1t Is also stated, the cor
respondent says, that the central pow
ers have demanded a neutrality ia
vorable to the central powers as well
as the rehabilitation Of the Ruma-
MAN army.

ANTICIPATE GERMAN DRIVE
TO REACH FRENCH COAST

London, Feb. There appears to be
a growing belief both in Paris and
London that the Germans are prepar-
ing to launch some important military
movement on the western front. For
nearly a fortnight increasing German
activity has been reported along this
line.
The Times says today that the pres
sure OF events may force the German
staff to stake much to preserve con-
fidence at home and to stiffen the
troops by giving them an alluston OF
victory by a movement and the pos
sible occupation Of few line trenches.
There have been several recent in
dications that the enemy's artillery
was firing at various points" says the
Times, and that 1t was intended to
use German infantry to complete some
scheme or other, but for reasons I'M
known they deferred their visit to our
lines"
The Daily Graphic says: Every ar
gument from the enemy standpoint IA
Vors a great western offensive. The
sweep through Serbia has released sew
eral hundred thousand men for service
under Germany's direction. For a
month past near Loos, Givenchy and
Armentieres and other points attacks
have been made with the evident OBJ
ject of finding a weak spot. Further
more the whole theory of a successful
war, according to the general staff, is
that the best form Of defense Is an at
tack. On the political side there is
necessity to convince German and Aus
trian public opinion that something
decisive is near"
