WASHINGTON, Aug. Full infor- nation concerning food conditions in northern European neutral countries has been asked of the neutrals by the United States in notes handed to their diplomatic representatives here
 The American governments plans for rationing the neutrals through it's control of exports will be finally de- termined on after replies are received. The information sought concerns the exact food needs of those countries, their food production capacity and de- tails of their export and import trade of the last few years.
 The attention of the United States is to hold foodexports dofn-r-t-fon-

from reaching Germany. Assurances will be demanded that no American food is re-exported or used to supplant food that is exported.
 Quick responses to the notes are looked for, since at present no ship ments to the neutrals are permitted to leave American ports and some of the countries are badly in need of grains
 Norway's case was put before this government today by Dr. Fridtjof Nan sen. head of the Norwegian mission, who declared his country, facing star vation. was ready to release a million tons of shipping in return for the priv ilege of importing food. Norway, Dr. Nansen said, needs sugars, fats and rrain, and will guarantee that none of these things are sent into Germany. Holland. too. is willing to exchange ships for food. but does not want Dutch ships sent into the submarine zone.

aviators and the German infantry were not uncommon. In one instance a young aviator, in a burst of chivalry, deliberately stopped his machine gun when a German officer drew his pistol and began shooting at him, and en- gagged the enemy with his pistol ap- parently feeling that he had no right to take an unfair advantage of his op- ponent.

WASHINGTON, August 2.-The inn perative need of ships in the trans Atlantic service was diclosed today in indications that the shipping board is preparing to commander all American tonnage and in an order issued by President Wilson which has the effect of cutting off steel exports to Japan unless Japanese vessels are diverted to war uses.
 The shipping board probably will an nounce communicating program within a few days It will call for the requisitioning of ships under authority recently given to the president by con- gress and probably will include ar engagements for turning the vessels back to their owners for actual opera ton.

MAKE b|G3 COUNTER
 AT TACKS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]


 While the rain and the morass have served to hold the entente allied forces in leash. preventing a resumption of the great offensive of Tuesday, they have not been effective in keeping the Germans from throwing counter at tacks with large masses of men against several newly won sectors on the front held by the British and French troops nor in bringing about a cessation of the violent artillery duel along the en- tire line.
 Crown Prince Rupprecht evidently considers the British gain northeast Of Ypres the most important made in the battle of Tuesday, for upon this terri tory he has concentrated the strongest of his counter offensive operations in an attempt to regain lost ground. His efforts. however, have gone for naught, the British artillery and infantry fire raking the advancing forces mer cilessly.
 Although the Teutonic allies are still advancing against the Russians in East Galicia, Bukowina and along the Moldavian frontier, the allied offensive on the western front apparently is on the nerves of the German emperor.
 It is assumed that a war council of the high military and naval leaders in Germany, called by Emperor William IL meet in Brussels, had as it's objective an analytical survey of the offensive, which if it is carried out as planned by the allies, would prove a menace to the German holdings in Belgium, and especially along the coast.
 Wednesday was the date set for the conference, which was to have been at Id IrvI HinII ATn, .hn1 burg, chief of the imperial general staff; Crown Prince Rupprecht of Ba- varia, in command of the force in Flanders; the German crown prince, and others, including Vice Admiral von Capelle, minister of the navy, whose naval bases on the North sea would be affected by a success to the entente allied arms As yet, however, nothing has come through toindicate the trend of the discussion.
 The situation of the Russians on the eastern front grows increasingly acute, the Russians steadily falling back ev- erywhere So far have the operations of the Teutonic allies been advanced in Bukowina that seemingly the little Austrian crown land soon again will be returned to the AuStrianS. Numerous additional towns and vantage points along the front nave been captured by the Teutons Berlin asserts that from the Pruth to the eastern foothills of the Kelemen mountains a distance of approximately hundred miles, the Russians are steadily giving ground.
 Advices reaching Petrograd from the front are to the effect that a retro grade movement by the Russians has been carried out 15 miles southeast of Riga, the important Russian port and naval base on the Baltic. Here the Germans have occupied the Ukskull bridgehead which the Russians pre- viously had evacuated.

 INTO DENOMINATIONS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., Aug. 2.- District Attorney George R. Craig, whose district includes Mckinley county, today began an investigation of the deportation of thirty -four men, most of them miners, from the Gallup district
 The district attorney, at the request of Frank Hefferly, district represen- tatiye of the United Mine Workers of America, who was deported, inter- viewed the exiles at Belen today and left tonight for Gallup to continue the investigation, acting upon advice of Attorney General H. L. Patton.
 MT. Craig said he would not be pre- pared to make a statement as to his intentions until he had completed the investigation.
 A report that they were to be re- arrested and transferred to another place caused the eXiles at Belen today ! to make arrangements to go to Col oradO. Learning that the report was untrue. however, they abandoned the plan. They had not determined upon i definite plan as to their future move ments.
 The eXiles today received telegraphic assurances from the national headquar- ters of the United Mine Workers of 1 America that the organization would take care of them. The organization sent them $3,400 by telegraph. More than sixty per cent of the company are members of the United Mine Work CTS of America, it was said. The others were not miners, according to state ments of members of the company i None of them are connected with the l. w. w. they said.
 One man said he was a farmer and that he owned a farm six miles from Gallup. He was arrested, he said
