Arabs Fail to Get
u. S. Recognition
Because We Are Not at War
With Turks Greeting to the
Hedjas Is Withheld

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-Recogni-
ton by the United States OF the King
dom of the Hedjas, or Arabia, when
was created by Arabs who revolted and
declared their independence after the
commencement Of the present war, is
withhold because America is not at war
with Turkey, it was learned on eX-
cellent authority to-day.
The State Department received tne
proclamation Of the Grand Sheret OF the
new kingdom in August, 1916, after the
independence of the Arabs had been
completely accomplished. The king
dom comprises Mecca, Medina and the
seaport Jeddah, and an underlined HIN
terland.
The Entente powers have extended
recognition to the Kingdom OF the
Hedias. and its permanency is not
questioned in Allied countries. That
the United States refrains from grant
ing like recognition is regarded as one
of the odd things of the war, as to do
so would be an act unfriendly to Iur-
kew. with which America has no rela-
tons and with whose principal ally the
United States is at war.
The same considerations are said TO
be responsible for the non-recognition
By the United States OF the British
protectorate over Egypt, which also was
declared early in the war.

waiting for train. he was ordered
to scrub his cell every morning with
a cup of salt and pail Of water For
food he received an ounce Of bread,
cereal coffee, bread crumbs and soup
made of potato peelings.
Prisoners Beaten Frequently
In a camp where Tannenbaum spent
three months with French and Belgian
prisoners wooden benches were the
beds, and rotten bread, with potato
peel soup, was the food. The men
were frequently examined by doctors,
and often were marched naked on
snow-covered ground for ice water
baths. They were beaten on the slight"
est provocation. An epidemic Of
cholera and typhoid broke out, and
when il was over the survivors were
vaccinated.
The German soldiers and doctors de"
serted the camp during the epidemic
and prisoners were left to care for the
sick. Finally the camp was investi'
gated by a government commission,
which ordered better food.
The food allowance for the German
people was as follows: For one person,
one week, three pounds of bread, 80
grams of butter, one egg, $50 grams OF
meat, so grams of sugar, 20 grams Of
soup, one fake of fat. The people are
hungry all the time. They ~ have
potatoes and vegetables only when
there is plenty.
Special Permit for Clothes
A special permit is required for Sc
curing clothes, and articles o. apparel
can only be obtained after authorities
have determined they are really need
ed. The soldiers fare little better, re-
ceiving poor clothes, and food enough
only when there is an abundance. The
soldiers receive three pounds Of bread
every four days when there is enough

milk and very little real coffee. II 10

The people discount the effectiveness
of the United States in the war, these
men who have just returned from Ger
many believe. They admit that this
country has food and munitions, but
they are taught that the American SOL
diers do not amount to much.

The Allies must strike Germany on

Fiske, U. S. y. (retired). He expressed
this view in a letter received yester-
day by Alan r. Hawley. president OF

In this letter, which emphasizes the
necessity of great numbers Of aero

the great wars Of modern times have

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 18.-Interest-

Georg Michaelis, German Chancellor, is
given in an article which he wrote in
December, 1914, for an obscure reli-
gious weekly, which has now been
resurrected. 1t condemns parliament

other, the selfish policy of the Con-
servative party. .

cradle fiasco of parliamentarianism in
England. and of the republican consti-

the moose of ministerial responsibility

After paying tribute to the Social

Great Powder Factory, As
Miles From Montreal,
Wrecked
Bodies Not Recovered
Exact Number of Casualties
Cannot Be Learned Until
the Ruins Cool

RIGAUD, Quebec, Aug. 1S.-The big
plant here of Curtis e. Harvey, Ltd,
explosives manufacturers, was totally
wrecked to-day by series of terrific
explosions. Buried beneath the ruins
of a dozen or more structures that
comprised the factory are from seven
teen to twenty-five dead.
Search of the ruins for bodies had
not been possible up to late hour to-
day, as the shattered repnants Of the
buildings were still blazing.
A rollcall Of the employees at the
plant will be made to ascertain, if pos
sible, the exact number. This work
has been rendered difficult because the
first explosion occurred when the
workers were changing shifts.
Several thousand male and female
workers employed at the plant were
in the danger zone fer hours.
Aaelief train arrived from Montreal
at room bringing doctors and nurses,
but owing to the fierce heat from the
burning ruins of the plant they were
unable to approach.
The loss in the value of the build
ings and stock will reach well up into
millions. The first explosion was
caused by the overheating of the ma
chinery in the nitric acid building. The
flames leaped along through the build
ing, and another explosion occurred.
Most Of the workers, however, are be-
lieved to have had ample time to es-
cape. Ga,
minutes or so, shaking the surrounding
country like a series Of earth quakes.
Altogether fifteen detonations were
counted.
One of the explosions blew down
number of houses in Dragon, where
most of the workers lived, and farm
houses in the vicinity also caught hre:
Provision was made by the people OF
Rigaud for accommodating the home

To Bar Germans Forever
Seamen Would Keep Them
Off British Ships

LONDON, Aug. 1s.-At to-day's ses-
sion of the convention of seamen, rep
resenting several Enteate and neutral
countries, it was proposed that Ger
mans be dcbarred forever from sailing
on British ships. sympathy was eX..
pressed for neutrals on account OF
their difficulties in maintaining neu-
trality in the face OF such cruel and
unscrupulous acts as those Of Germany
at sea.
The Germans were denounced for
ignoring the law of the sea and refus-
ing 70 succor those in peril. The sea-
men declared they were still unwilling
to carry Socialists to the international
Stockholm Conference, but were await
ing the time when they could carry
delegates from victorious Allied armies
on the way 10 Berlin.

Food Allowance INSULT
cient for Both Soldiers
and Those at Home
Starve in Prison Camps
Boys of Seventeen in Trenches,
Declare Refugees Who
Reach New York

Germany is reaching the. end OF her
resources, according TO Max Tannen-
baum and Jacob Schurek, who arrived
in this city yesterday after escaping
into Holland from German prison
camps. The homes of the people have
been stripped of old men and boys for
the firing line, aged men and women
are at work and metals Of all kinds
are disappearing, the escaped prison
ers say.
The two men met each other in Hol-
land and succeeded in reaching this
country by slowing away on steam
ship. Tannenbaum spent more than
two years in mines and internment
camps after he was forcefully taken
into Germany from Russia. He says
that the German people are coming to
look upon victory as a lost hope and
are so tired of war that thousands are
wondering if it is worth while.
The call to arms has reached seven
teen-year-old boys, and mothers are
vainly protesting. The enthusiasm Of
the earlier days of the war is lacking.
The people are thin 20 the point Of
emaciation because of scanty rations.
To be fat is almost a crime, and to eat
more than the government allotment
is sometimes punishable by death. The
people are becoming less and less
stirred by optimistic government an
nouncements.
Was Struggled Across Border
Tannenbaum, Russian Jew, was
allowed no freedom in Germany. He
bribed a woman to smuggle him across
the Dutch border. In Holland he could
obtain no authority to leave that coun-
try, although he had left his wife des-
titute in Russia. He met Schurek at
the Russian Consulate, and after un-
successfully trying to secure steam
ship passage the pair boldly walked
aboard a liner. They were unchal-
lenged, and reached this city by way
of Halifax. Their entrance into this
country was unknown to immigration
officials, but they announced their
presence, and after an investigation
they were allowed to remain.
