BRITISH WOULD RUIN
GERMAN COMMERCE BY
NEW STRATEGIC MOVE

A new Order-in- Council. signed by
King George at Buckingham palace on
November 10 last, knowledge OF the
pronunciation of which by the British
government only recently reached the
ears of private citizens In this coun-
try, has aroused much talk in ship
ping circles, as 1t practically makes IL
impossible for German-Americans or
Germans, long resident in this coun-
try. to engage in commerce with other
neutral countries wherever British
vessels are the only carriers between
foreign ports. J..
Legal opinion holds that this step,
which Is understood to be the first in
a definite campaign designed to Grip
pie German financial, commercial and
industrial activity throughout the
world, is entirely within the terms OF
international law. The administration
at Washington have been much yexed
at its harsh terms, but they have not
been slow TO admit the cleyerness
with which the British Foreign Office
framed the noxious draught SO that
there might be no question Of its In
fringing American rights. .-&
The Order-in- Council simply forbids
any British steamship of more than
500 tons to carry cargo from foreign
port to foreign port, unless the owner
or ctafterer of the steamship first Sc
cures a license to do so. Inasmuch
as the withholding of licenses to espe-
cial ships can be accounted for by a
variety of reasons, there is no chance
for charging discrimination under this
act - ..... ...>t

Permission to erect a Mormon tenn

Money Ralsed Locally.
Money for the temple was raised
largely through local subscription. The
church had been saving a little from
time to time until 1t had sufficient
funds on hand to go ahead with the
work. A generous contribution was
made by the Laie plantation, which is
owned by the church. q
The temple will be erected on the
site of the present Mormon church at
Laie, and arrangements have already
been made to move the old building.
This will be begun within, a few days.
