cinnati, walked into one OF the down
town barber shops to have his hair

After the barber had clipped for
some time on the young mans head, he
asked him If he hadn't better have his
hair cleaned up. The young man, after
glancing ut the hair on the floor and
thinking the barber was trying to put
one over on him, said he guessed not. "

ACTION Of ALLIES

REFUSAL OF SAFE CONDUCT FOR
AuSTRo-HUNGARIAN AMBAS-
SADoR DENOUNCED.
Uaited States Sends Note to Great
Britain and France Requesting
Reconsideration, But No
FaVors Are SOUGHT.

Washington.-The United States
has sent notes to Great Britain and
France, it became known Wednesday,
requesting reconsideration by those
governments of their refusal to issue
a safe conduct through their block
ade lines to Count Tarnowski, the new
Austro-Hungarian ambassador to this
country, and speaking of the unfortun-
ate effect that a continued refusal
would have on opinion here.
The notes point out that it is the in
alienable right OF sovereign nations
to exchange ambassadors and insist
that a third nation, even in time Of
war, is not justified in denying that
right.
Great care is taken to base the rep
resentation solely on the grounds of
international right as distinguished
from mere international courtesy,
making it clear that the United States
is not asking a favor or assuming the
attitude of pleader.
Care also is taken not to put the
government in position Of having
Shtlli6Cu It's dllituuc tdSN SCAh
munication on the subject, which was
merely the transmission of the Aus
trian governments request for safe
conduct. 1t was planned at first when
the rebuff was received to drop the po-
sition Of being messenger Of Austria
and make a formal demand in the
name of the United States.
1t was decided, however, that 1t was
unnecessary to take such action al
this stage of the negotiations when II
was hoped that a firm statement OF
the general principles of international
law in the case will cause reconsid
Grafton by the allies. If the present
note meets with an unsatisfactory re
Spouse it is admitted that very diff
cult situation will be developed.
