Citations of the government and its

sentatives of the shipping and mer-

glimmer of an overture for peace, but
If overtures for an honorable peace

this government is no more able to
make peace than it is to make war"

opinion OF Professor Frederick n.

He insisted that "dawg" Is just as
good a pronunciation as dog" Uni

"The beautiful dialect OF the south

SANITARY MILK BY
JANUARY |, PLAN
Dairymen and Dealers Must
Meet All Requirements by
Then, Says Hawley.

When the clock strikes for the
opening of the new year, dairymen
and restaurant keepers, as well as
other users of milk and foodstuffs,
will be expected to have their places
in a sanitary condition and their prod
ucts within the more restricting phrase
of the city's pure food law. DR.. s.
DeZell Hawley, superintendent of city
health, has sent out his final warn
ing. Things must be cleaned up with
in thirty days and then the arm OF
the law will fall. he said yesterday
The first warning came with the
publication Of the new pure milk or
dirance. Doctor IIawley followed this
up with meeting of the dairymen OF
the city in his offices in the city hall
yesterday. Then he sent out the third
and last call"
One of the issues on which little il
any difficulty is encountered in the
enforcement Of the pure milk ordi-
nance IS relative to the individual bot
ties. Doctor Hawley will insist that
this provision of the ordinance be
lived up to by the dairymen, and he
has the support in this of nearly every
restaurant man and soda fountain
owner in the city.
There will be "A little opposition to
this individual bottle matter" he said
yesterday. "but II will develop fl om
those who do not want to live up to
tho regulations of the pure milk law
bccaCse It will put an end To the
treating of milk. This Is exactly why
the law was passed and 1t VIII he this
class Of its opponents that we will
make examples of in the courts in our
enforcement of the ordinance"

Altho stating that he had not yet

Robert Cecil. minister OF war trade, in
discussing the question with the Asso-

Different Phases Up.
"It must be kept in mind that the
question presents two entirely dis
tinct phases. The first is that Of bel
ligerents to whom we could not ex-
tend favor under any circumstances.
We can discuss and arrange for the
exchange OF military and civilian pris-
oncrs and other similar matters with
the central powers, but on account of
their actions in this war we cannot be
expected to grant them single favor.
"The other phase concerns friend
" neutral like the United States. 10
whom we are ready 10 grant any favor

VIII Not Risk Prophecy.
ITO grant safe conduct to Count
TarnowSki for which there are prece-
dents may sall within the latter phase,
but it is a difficult question about
which it would be dangerous to

The American request has been pre-
sented directly to Niscount Grey. sec
retary OF state for foreign affairs.
Early action is expected, hut some
time may clapse before it Is taken as
the French government must be con-
suited.
II became known on November 80
that the United States had sent notes
to Great Britain and France request
ing reconsideration by those govern
ments of their refusal 20 issue safe
conduct thru their blockade lines for
Count Tarnowski. The notes pointed
out that 1t was the inalienable right
OF sovereign nations to exchange am
ba ssadors and insisted that third ma

fled in denying that right.
