DUTCH PROTESTS
ARE BOMbARDINC
BRITISH Govt.

London, Thursday. Aug. 10.-Ameri-
can shippers to Holland are lombard
ing the British government with pro-
tests as.a result Of definitions Of car
goes consigned to The Netherlands
Overseas Trust. 1t is understood here
the protest may be backed by diplo-
matte action at Washington.
In April Of last year, replying to a
protest from Washington over the de-
tenticn Of the American ship Seguran-
ca, the foreign Office made the follow
ing promise:
while His Majesty's government
does not require cargoes to be consign-
ed to The Netherlands Overseas Trust,
they do accept consignment in that
form as proof that the cargo is intend
ed for honafide consumption in Hol-
land"
This was widely circulated in the
United States, not only in the press,
but in the form of circulars issued by
British consulates and various cham
bers Of commerce
In the last two months between 30
and 40 consignments to The Neither
lands Overseas Trust have been held
up, some in bonded warehouses in Hol-
land, awaiting action, while others
have actually been placed in prize
court. American shippers complain that
the British government has not adher-
ed to its pledge and it is expected they
will seek the assistance of the state de-
partment.

BAKER EXPLAINS
RAISED P RICE
BREAD L0AvES

Salt Lake City, Aug. lis. F. Nc
Donald, president of the National AS
ISOLATION of Master Bakers, said to-
day that the opinion of the associa =
ton for the general increase in the
price of bread from five to 10 cents a
leaf probably has been misunderstood
by some of the general public, and
apparently by the government Off
Gals.
THE convention voted for an in
crease Of 10 cents for the present five
cent loaf, but for the general sale of
only 10-cent loaves," he said. Incl
dentally, because Of the high price of
materials and the present narrow
margin of profit. it is proposed to di
minish the size of the loaf.
