AMERICAN POLICY
CITED BY ALLIES
Omitted States Course In Civil
War Given as Precedent
For Present British Or
der In Council.

Washington, d. c., April 22.-Ac
cording to authentic information reach
ing Washington, Great Britain an,
France, in their joint note replying t.
the American protest against interior
ence with neutral trade. made no at
tempt to dispute principles contende,
for by the United States. but insist that
those principles have been given legal
Interpretation and application by the
allies in their blockade of Germany and
Austria.
This note, which will be landed to
the state department within the next
day or two by the British and French
ambassadors, is understood to be long
and extremely technical. treating of
the whole subject on a purely legal
basis and relying upon the presidents
laid down by the United States in the
civil war. 1t is said the allies assume
that the United States government does
not contend that it has the right I'd
ship goods without restrictions into
Germany or Austria through contigu-
Gus neutral countries. such as Holland.
Sweden and Denmark.
The concession of the right to block
ade an enemy country, which is univer-
sally recognized, is regarded as neces-
sarily carrying with it the right to reg
ulate the admission of goods to the neu-
trail country evidently destined to be
transferred to the enemy. Consequent

such as Holland. of goods that might
be of use to Germany and Austria to
the amount normally consumed in the
neutra countries.
Moreover. it is argued that an Incl
dent to the exercise of his right of
regulation of imports is the right to
search vessels approaching the neutral
country. In this connection the allies
hold that while in early days it was
possible to conduct such a search at
sea, conditions of modern sea traffic
have made this impossible; hence it
has become necessary to take the neu-
trail ship to the nearest convenient port
where the cargo may be examined. This
is the explanation offered by the appar-
ent unreasonable diversion of many
ships from their regular courses and
what has been complained of as an
unnecessary delay in search. 1t was
with a view to reducing complaint on
this -core, it is pointed out. that ar
engagements were made for the British
embassy here to advise would be Amer
ican shippers whether their cargoes
probably would be subject to detention

EXCHANGE TO SHIP
$50 CARS OF APPLES

With its tonnage for the 1916 season
estimated at $50 carloads, the Fruit
Growers Exchange will this season
handle rs per cent more apples than
last year. With the harvest in full
swing the Exchange, beginning next
week, is planning to load out from two
to three cars of apples daily.
OF this years crop handled by the
Exchange. so carloads will be of the
Skookum grade. including the highest
quality of such varieties as the Spite.
enburg and Newtown. Last season the
Exchange shipped but five carloads of
this grade.
During the past few days our orders
have been picking up noticeably," says
Kenneth Mckay, ''and there is a de-
cidedly firmer tone about the market.
We are looking forward to a good year
for growers.
The Exchange, according to Mr.. Nc
Kay, by the sale of approximately two
carloads of fruit wraps hack to jobbers
is perhaps making a record in North
western fruit circles.
Most fruit sales agencies purchased
short on wrappers, says Mr.. Mckay,
because of the high cost this year.
We overbought. and now we find that
our growers will not need all we have
on hand. The paper company from
which we purchased the wrappers is
buying them back, and our growers
will realize handsome profit from the
deal"

''We hope this year," said Harold
Hooker, assistant secretary of the SpO-
kane Chamber of Commerce who was

of orchardists in the apple show. ito
obtain more of carnival spirit at the

VOTE ON EXCLUSION
AMENDMENT CALLED

Following a decision rendered last
summer in Clatsop county case
wherein it was set forth that the citi.
zens of a municipality could exclude
territory within the corporate limits
by vote on charter amendment, the
city council Monday night passed at
first reading an ordinance providing
for vote on charter amendment on
December 5, when a mayor, to succeed
DR.. II. l.. Dumble, and other city Off.
cials will be elected.
The proposed charter amendment
provides for the exclusion of all terri
tory east of the Hood river including
the steel bridge that connects with the
East Side orchard district. For several
years futile negotiations between the
city and county as to the upkeep and
maintenance of the bridge and a stretch
of road about a half mile in length
have been conducted. City residents
have argued that the bridge and high
way, since they are respectively in re-
atty county structure and thorough
fare. should be maintained at the coun-
tvs expense. County officials, how
ever, have always sidestepped- any
definite decisions in the matter. 1t is
expected that the ordinance passed
Monday night will raise protest from
county officials.
On petition of the city school board,
the city council has ordered June street
between Ninth and Tenth streets
closed. the school board offering to
dedicate for street purposes a 80 foot
strip of property owned by the district
at the Pleasant View school house on
the Heights. Several of the residents
of June street demonstrated against
the closing of the street. The school
board petitioned for the action in order
that the ground around the new Sis, 900
brick school building at the point, now
nearing completion, might be made
more commodious and attractive.
The council received and offered to
consider a petition from C. N. Ravlin
on behalf of the Chautauqua Associa.
tion that the council include in its
budget the coming year an amount
sufficient to pay the outstanding in.
debtedness contracted on the construc-
tion of the open air theatre on Chau-
tauqua park.
The members of the Hood River
Volunteer fire department asked that
they receive appropriations for the
purchase of more adequate equipment.
Chief Morgan asked that lockers be es-
tablished at the engine room and that
stove be placed in the building. The
request was referred to the fire and
water committee.
Louis Henderson. city treasurer, in
formed the council that in excluding
the property east Of Hood river from
the city limits, the city would lose
taxable property to the extent Of $780,.
600. This property. on an average
levy, furnishes the city with revenue
of $2lO.

Following are extracts from an adj
dress delivered by Col. A. ID. Watts,
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
Fifth District Of North Carolina, at a
smoker given by The Twin City Club,
Winston-Salem, February 4th, 1915:
some COMPARISONS
"Winston-Salem is supplying one
fourth Of all the chewing and smok-
ing tobacco consumed in the United
States, besides exporting vast guam
titles to foreign lands. This state
ment is taken from the report of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
for the first quarter of the present
fiscal year and from private advices
from Washington as to the second
quarter, which ended December 31st,
last.
Your city is making one-seventh
of all tobacco. Notwithstanding and
smoking tobacco, cigars, cigarettes
and northumberland in the Unit
ed States. Your manufacturers are
paying on an an average about S37,
600 day revenue taxes to the gov
ernment and the amount is increasing
from month to month. When your
government building, much the hand
soonest in the State, was completed
last July at a cost of S25O,OOO your
newspapers made the statement that
the taxes paid in your city to Uncle
Sam for the first eight days of its &C.
cupancy would pay for it. Since
september, it has taken only a frac-
ton over seven average days collec-
tons here to equal its cost. So far
this week, Mr.. Crawford has taken in
$206, 1880. | predict that before
1916 shall have ended your average
weekly payments to the government
on tobacco will more than pay for
this magnificent building, leaving the
collections for the other fifty-one
weeks as clear pro It to the govern
ment.
TOBACCO SHIPMENTS
"Winston-Salem is shipping on an
average each week day to all parts of
this country and to foreign lands at
least $4,000 Of tobacco products.
In conclusion, Winston-SaIem
manufactures more tobacco, all to-
bacco products are taken into this
statement than any other city on earth,
little or big. Industrially, she is

latiOn considered, first in America
