Brazilians Urge Formation
of New League for Neutrality

Of matters which might lead to belli-
gerent restrictions.
Violations of these regulations
would be met under the plan, first by
the withdrawal of the neutral league
of the privilege of friendly treatment
for the offending nation, including the
trade rights. In case a consular or
diplomatic official should be con-
cerned his credentials would be
handed him at once. If Il is proved
unavailing, hostilities might follow.
The report. while directed at all
belligerents, is more concerned with
British trade violations. The efforts
of the United States are recognized,
but are declared ineffective. The allied
blockade is particularly criticised. A
case is cited in which Brazilian yes
sci from the United States to Brazil
is alleged to have been seized, taken
into Martinique. and forced to SUR
render some of its merchandise bound
to Brazil.
The Brazilian report created great
interest in official circles. South
American nations have been hard hit
by British trade restrictions and some
time ago an official announcement
was made in Chile that the Chilean
ambassadors to the United States,
Brazil and Argentine had been re-
quested to seek joint action on the
British blacklist. The State depart
ment, however, says that as yet
neither the Chilean nor the Brazilian
proposal has been definitely submitted.

How Germans Aid French.

One of the newest French bomb
throwers is as simple as the brass
guns that small boys delight to play
with. 1t consists of German shrap-
mel shell case mounted OH a wooden
stand, with a spike in front to anchor
it firmly to the ground. The case Of
the shrapnel remains intact after it
has been fired, as its object is to act
like a small cannon its end opens
and the shrapnel with which it is
filled is driven out by a charge Of
powder at the bottom of the case.
These shell cases are carefully picked
up by the French to be used against
the enemy. They are cut down, and
a touchhole is bored in them The
cost Of the finished bomb-thrower is
but little over one dollar, and it's
weight is negligible, while a great
number of them may be turned out
without the slightest difficulty To
use them charge of powder is poured
into the shell case, and a bomb, well
loaded with explosives, is placed upon
it. The charge is fired by the touch
hole, and the bomb is thrown into the
air 1t turns clumsily over and over
like a large sausage, but it finds its
target with remarkable accuracy.

KAVALA BONE OF CONTENTION
Greece and Bulgaria Have Been FOR
Many Centuries at Odds Over
This Port.

Kavala, the Greek port where, it
appears, a new allied expedition is to
be landed, has long figured conspicu.
ously in Balkan disputes and for a
double reason. 1t happens that the
welter of races which makes the di-
vision of Macedonia everywhere diff
cult is absolutely ineXtricable at Ka-
vala, and that the town is of much
commercial importance as the center
of the district in which the very best
Turkish" tobacco is grown. Conse-
quently, whenever Greek and Bulgar
have cleaned the slate of acrimonious
questions there always is the standing
grievance of Kavala to keep them
asunder. 1t was the Greek kings re-
fusal to approve the proposed cession
of Kavala to Bulgaria that caused the
first resignation of the Venizelos min
istry and dashed the hopes of the al
lies for a new Balkan league. Kavala
is famous for a landing of quite a diff
ferent nature from that now imminent.
When it was called Neapolis ST. Paul
landed there on his way to Philippi,
