SECRETARY CHAMBERLAIN
 OF INDIA HAS RESIGNED Was One of Group Blamed for Fai- ure of Mesopotamia Campaign.

London. July 12-J. Austen Cham berlain, secretary for India has re- signed. MT. Chamberlain was one or the group of civil and military off, cials on which fell a most scathing criticism of military operations con tained in the report of the commis- sion which investigated the ill-fated Mesopotamia expedition. The report found that the expedition was under taken with insufficient forces and in adequate preparation and that the failure of the first campaign was due to miscalculations and lack of fore sight. The India office in London was held responsible for the policy pursued. although the report attached less blame to MT. Chamberlain's part in the enterprise than to that of the others concerned
 It was announced on Wednesday that all the officers involved had ceas- ed to exercise any function in con nection with the government and that a judicial inquiry into their conduct would be made.

TO CONFER ON THE
 HIGH COST OF LIVING. Legislation Along Single Tax Lines Among Matters to Be Discussed.

Washington, July 12.-A conference on the high cost of living will be held in Washington July 30 and 31 to dis cuss federal legislation to give the government control of natural re- sources and a proposed taxation sys- tenn by which a high tax on unused lands would be used to pay the cost of the war. The conference is called by the committee on the high cost of liv- ing, an organization whose member ship extends throughout the country.
 A notice sent out by the committee says:
 The committee on the high cost of living estimates that the aggregate unearned profits of land spectators, owners of natural resources and nat uraI onopolies-ralroads, telegrap aphs telephones and pubic utilities-is ap- proximately s5.500.00O,000 this year, while the producers have to pay over s2,500, 900, 900 in taxes. because land owners are permitted to keep s3,5OO, = 00O,000 of unearned ground rents The total cost to the workers of our coun- try is, therefore, this year nearly SS,000, OOO, ,OO0-a per capita of almost $50. The extortions of food manipu- lators are inexcusable but insignifican nt com pared with the tribute levied by holders of natural resources and on the land and of natural monopolies"

COMPLAINT OF AMERICAN
 EXPORT RESTRICTIONS
By Semi Official Newspaper PoIitken
 in Copenhagen.

Copenhagen, July 12-F'urther com plaint of American export restrictions being unjust and cruel to small neu- tra1s, tending to force them between starvation and entering the war, is made by the semi-officiaI newspaper Politken- The demand that American products shall neither directly nor in directly contribute to the advantage of the Germans can only be fulfilled if all economic relations with Germany are severed" continues the paper, which cites an article from a Wa fngton paper and Controller Ho) overs statement to prove the brutality back of the American policy.
 The situation which the American proclamation creat ates for small neu- trals. particularly Denmark, is highly serious says the Politken. Wars spectre approaches our frontier by an unexpected poth. Even if we escape war we cannot escape many of it's most direct consequences. It is inte- resting to establish the fact that this comes from a group of powers whose regard for small neutraIs has been one of the worlds popular slogans, also one Of the worlds greatest lies"

TERRIBLE PLIGHT OF
 DEPORTED BELGIANS Famine and Freezing Cause Death of
 Hundreds.

Paris, July 12.-From a strictly au- thentic source a terrible picture is given of the lot of Belgian civilians carried into Germany, especially those who were sent to the internnent camp at Soltau- When the deported Bel gians reached Scitau they were called upon to sign a labor contract. The majority having refused they were despatched to smaller camps at No nigsmoor and Teufelmoor at Lichten- horst, where food was so bad that after few days, the hospital was crowded. It was finally decided to send those weakest to the Central hospital at Soltau. Despite this measure many died and a number more perished on the road to Soltau. At Lichtenhorst there were 39 deaths in one hut alone Nine or ten were frozen to death and ten were rendered unconscious by the intense cold. At Soltan hospital in enc month there was an average of three deaths a day. In the follow ing month the avera ge rose to four daily, in spite of the fact that there was no epidemic. There was a med 1cal label over nearly all the beds showing the occupants were suffering from general weakness or weakness of the heart.
