ENGLAND WILL
TIGHTEN GRIP
ON THE SEAS
Little Chance Of Her Lifting the
Trade Embargo With the
TeutOns.
TO LAY SITUATION
BEFORE PARLIAMENT

London, Jain. 20.-Whatever
change is made in the British order
in-council it is certainty the grip
Of British sea power on Germany will
be tightened rather than loosened.
This is the opinion expressed in a
high quarter of the British govern
ment, which is not yet convinced the
orders-in-council are not the best
methods for bringing economic pres
sure to bear on the Central powers.
1t is clear now that the foreign Of
flee will not come to any decision
until it lays complete defense of the
present operations of the orders-in-
council before the house Of commons,
and this will not be done until the
compulsion debate is ended.
At that time, the recently publish
ed figures, showing exports to neutral
countries having access to Germany
will be attacked Most of these fig
llreS, according to statements made
in official circles here, apply to
months preceding the actual adop-
ton and enforcement of the orders
in-council and also ignore the facts
that millions of bushels of wheat
which found their way to Russia
must now be replaced from Argen-
tina and the United States.
Editorial Comment
The Daily Chronicle devotes the
most prominent positions on its edi-
torial page today to a defense of
President Wilson and his foreign
policy. The Chronicle declares that
Mr.. Wilson occupies a position of ex-
ceptional difficulty, adding that IF
the British press and public took a
little more trouble to understand him
and were more conscious Of the abb
surdity of lecturing the public on
what it's president ought to do, it
would be much to the advantage of
the Anglo-American future"
Discussing the English attitude to-
ward the United States, the Chron-
icle says:
There is a section of the British
press that is not treating the United
States strictly as neutral power.
They have treated the United States
as if they were one of the family.
"a recent number of an American
magazine contains a symposium CIV
ing the reason of English writer's
why America should come into the
war This is piece of grafuitous
impertinence. We have no business
70 advise Americans what line of pol
icy they should pursue"

London, Jan. 2O.--Violent attacks

Re-appearonce of Quail Disease.

OWING to the prevalence of quail disease among quail an
ported from Mexico at the ports Of New York City and Eagle
Pass, Tex, during the last month, the federal department 81 sg {
riculture has suspended issue of further permits for entry OF
these birds this season. Quail in shipments actually en- route to
the United States on January 20 were admitted to quarantine,
but no further entries will be authorized. Most Of the states
now have such stringent game laws that it is practically imp9s,
sble to purchase quail even for propagatlng purposes In the
United States and dealers have sought quail elsewhere; especial
" in northwestern Mexico where quail occur in abu nance put gu
Mexican quail on arrival at destination are frequently tound IN
fected with quail disease. So fatal is this disease that when it
once appears most of the birds which are exposed to it die wlthln
a few days. In one shipment of 1876 quail which recently reached
New York, only three birds survived the voyage, and in another
of about i6O birds, more than two-thirds of the number died
shortly after arrival. More than one;third OF all the Mexican
quail imported last year died within a few months.
To guard against spread Of quail disease live quail purchased
for propagation should be kept under observation for two or
three weeks and should not be liberated if infected with disease:
The department of agriculture desires to ascertain the result OF
experiments which have been made in importing quail this year
and will be glad to receive information as to the condition OF the
birds and as to how many have died in any locality where the quail
have been introduced.
Before next season the department will hold a public hearing
in Washington, D. G., for the purpose of determining whether
or not further permits for importation of quail from Mexico will
be issued, at which various questions connected with the impor1ta-
ton of quail will be carefully considered; Ample notice of this
hearing will be given later in order that those who are interested
may arrange to be present or to submit written statements.
