NEUTRALs FEEDING GERMANY
lMedford NAH Trihnnel


The visit of the Norwegian mission,
headed by DR.. Nansen, to the United
States with the object of securing a
lifting of the embargo recently dechr-
ed by the president upon shipments to
neutrals from the United States, again
calls attention to the imperative need
OF such an embargo, if the war is to be
won-for the neutrals, including Nor
way, have been feeding and supplying
Germany.
The policy of the United States
should be that of Germany, so tersely
! expressed by Hindenburg when the poi
LEY of submarine warfare was under
consideration: damn the neutrals-
win the war; If the neutrals want to
! be fed, let them join the allies and de-
clare war against Germany.
Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Holland
and Switzerland have been growing
| rich feeding Germany either with Am
erican products reshipped, or with their
own, which they have replenished from
America. The amount of supplies ship
ped by these little countries into Ger
many is amazing and the tremendous
growth of imports from America since
the war began cannot be accounted for
in any other way.
Denmark offers IAN example. Cocoa
imports have increased from 1000 tons
a year before the war to $4,000 tons in
1916. Cocoa is used by the Germans not
only for food, but the oil is extracted
for explosives. Bacon, lard, oleo oil,
cottonseed cake and hnseed imports in
creased in some cases seventy two times
over normal importation. The excess
went to Germany.
From 5000 to 10000 head Of cattle
week have been shipped to Germany,
all fattened on imported fodder; A |
special train daily carries fresh milk, !
poultry, eggs and fish from Copenhagen |
to Berlin. Ships of the Danish Shipping |
company carrying supplies from the |
United States have been let alone by |
The case of Norway is less acute than /
that of Denmark, for Norwegians have |
generally sympathized with the allies, |
and Norwegian commerce has been bad
" crippled by U-boats-still Norwe
gians have grown rich supplying food
to Germany, and imports show a phe
inerease-the surplus over nor
nal going, of course, to Germany
The embargo win stop this When /
he neutrals realize the situation, they I
will have to keep their food supplies
and German armies win no I

only the control of the air and the superiority OF the
British guns that make any advance possible For the
past week an artillery duel has been waged along the
British front greater than any since the began, and
the result shows that at last the allies better equip
