"On behalf of the confederate gov
ernments," the chancellor continued,
Il ask you to assist in the work when
will bring us new strength and gulde
us toward victory mad peace"
DR.. Helfferich, minister Of the inte-
rior, said:
The home army and field army in
this war join hands for an indissoluble
union. Underneath the German soil
are rich treasures, but they must be
lifted to the daylight"
DIR. Helfferich then quoted an histor-
ic German song which century ago
during the war of deliverance inspired
the German troops-"The Lord Who
Made Iron to Grow Wants No Slaves
This is as true today as it was a
century ago, as it always will, said the
minister. This is war carried on
not only with arms, but it is an eco
nomic war of nations"
England, which always speaks OF
protecting neutrals, has by her inter
ference with mails, spying system and
blacklists, cut off necessary imports

damage imam ever an enemy cOulu uO.
"In this economic war, we, together
with our allies, stand in all essential
things alone. Our enemies can continue
to import from across the seas. Eng
land, as her chancellor of the ex-
chequer has stated. has thus bought
every week to the amount of 12,000.-
900 pounds. which is 10000, 100000
marks a year. France during 1O
10 months paid for the same purpose
10000, 100000 francs. Half the world
is at our enemy's disposal.

we must rely upon our own work and
must produce what we need by our
own work. The earth yields what we
need for food. But we must work, and
once more have peace. This law mob

completes the mobilization of national

DUTCH PACKET
STEAMER is TO
BE RELEASED

Berlin. Nov. 30.-(Via London).-A
semi official announcement issued to-
day says the Dutch packet steamer
Koningin Regentes, which was taken
into Zeebrugee recently by a German
submarine will be released. The an
nouncement adds that the mail matter
carried by the vessel will be detained
and examined for contraband, such as
currency and negotiable securities.
This investigation will determine
whether the mails will be forwarded
to their destinations.
Three members of the crew, says the
announcement, will probably face an
investigation by a court martial on a
charge of assisting a British subject
to endeavor to conceal his mail pouch.
The incident probably will result in
diplomatic negotiations because Dutch
torpedo boats which had been sum-
moned by wireless tried to prevent the
German submarine from capturing the
steamer.

BOOST IN PRICE

Oil City. Pa, Nov. 30.-Northwestern
Pennsylvania refineries have in the
pats month advanced the price of fuel
oil from 3A cents a gallon to 81 cents

This advance has been caused by the
use of the oil in the great steel plants

and other steel centers. Refineries in
Oil City and vicinity are turning away
orders at present for the heavy grades
Of oil that are usually sold at cost. So
great is the demand that crude oil is
being shipped from Oklahoma to sup

they will entirely do away with coal
