BLOCKADE PRESENTS
PROBLEMS TO U, S,
tBy United Press Leased wire.)

fBy United Press Leased Wire.)
Washington, Jan. 20.-Both the
United States ami England are dig
ging their diplomatic trenches for the
battle in England's expected actual
blockade of Germany. The state de-
partment and Downing street have
notes on the subject in the course Of
preparation.
Authorities said today the diplo-
matte success of England in executing
the proposed blockade will be con-
tingent upon meeting American OBJ
jections thereto. England's note on
the subject of general commercial in
reference is almost ready to be trans
mitted TO Ambassador Page at Lon
don: meantime, the American note
will wait on receipt thereof.
State department experts say that
England must capture "only high
|percentage"-and not all--of block
ade runners, to establish an actual
"air-tight" blockade, as required by
international law. 1t is agreed that
Germany is already practically block
AIDED. except for goods sent to Scan
dinavian countries. and then into Ger
many via the Baltic,
But this Baltic supply is regarded
as less valuable to Germany than is
popularly believed, inasmuch as it is
known that at least 90 merchant ves-
sells have been sunk by Russian and
British submarines in that area in the
last six months. The crews of these
victims were landed in Sweden. But
how many more were sunk. with their
crews landed in Germany, is only
problematical.

KERRY

Snow for breakfast, snow for din
ner, and snow for supper has been
the daily menu for the past two
weeks. Snow Is the subject OF con-
yersatIon whenever people meet; the
topic over the telephone, and the
playthlng OF tho children. In fact,
over 40 inches OF snow have fallen
In our streets since the first OF the
year, and we do not yet feel sure
that the end has come. The Oldest
inhabitant can not remember when
40 much snow has fallen In one
storm.
Malls are delayed from IL to "a
hours or more. and we are glad to
get them when they come
The storm has brought with It a
number OF colds. threatened cases OF
pneumonia. etc, but none have re-
suited fatally.
"A number OF cases OF absence from
school are reported In consequence
OF wet clothing resulting from wad-
Ing through the snow. A number OF
sheds and barn roofs have fallen In
from the weight OF the accumulated
snow. Other roofs have been pre-
vented from falling by shovelIng the
snow on them.
Miss Anna Fiester is paying a visit
to her sister In Salem.
The evenings are now being made
merry by the younger set by coasting
and tobogganing. The side hill Is a
lively place these bright moonlight
nights until time for the curfew.
Word has Just been received that
the entire eighth grade applicants
have received diplomas OF successful
graduation from the grammar school.
They are now entitled to enter the
