Canada Calls Home
Families of Soldiers
Fears Wars End Will Find Them
Stranded in England

Canada has issued an appeal TO the
families of soldiers now in Great Brit
ain to return home. Canadian ano
English newspapers are carrying dis
play advertisements urging all Cana
disns in England not engaged in war
work TO return while accommodation is
available
The reason for this call" said a
prominent Canadian last night, sis that
it is thought that the war is reaching
its climax, and thousands of families
Of Canadian soldiers now in England
will be stranded if the war suddenly
ceases. The transportation Of troops
will be the first consideration, and that
will take IN all available space on all
ships, so that any Canadian families in
England when the war ceases Will have
to remain there for many months, some
of them more than a year"
The Tribune's informant, who is a
high official in the recruiting service,
said that Canada has no apprehension
over the increased ferocity of Ger.
many's U-boat warfare. and that Can.
ada will send more ships than ever
through the zone on which the Kaiser
has posted a no trespass notice.

Restoration of u. S. Con-
troll in Belgium Fails
to Free Ships
FOOD PURCHASES
ARE SUSPENDED
10000 Tons of Provisions
Lost to People by
Distractions

London, Feb. 16.-While restoring
American control to the relief work in
Belgium, the Germans are still hamper
irg the work by restricting the move
nents of relief ships and their cargoes.
They have cancelled the safe conducts
formerly given those vessels, reports
received here say, and have absolutely
prohibited the transport of vessels or
merchandise between Great Britain and
Holland.
The Germans permit vessels 70 APP
proach and leave Rotterdam by the
North Sea route. but this psssageway
is so full of British and German mines
as to be hazardous and almost imprac-
ticable.
The purchasing activities of the COM
mission overseas, amounting to 100000
tons of foodstufs monthly, already has
been suspended for a fortnight OBJ
structions raised by the Germans have
held up 10000 tons of foodstufs.
Under existing conditions the suspen-
sion means that more than $4,000 tons
have been lost to the hungry people of
Belgium, while the demurrage and
other caarZes N detained ships exceeds
e5O.00O, and increases at the rate Of
Is. 900 daily.
With the exception of the difficulties
incident TO the holding up Of its shit-
ping, the operations of the commits
sion are proceeding as usual. The Ger
man action in ordering Americans
from the occupied territories was So
promptly reversed that the continuity
of the work was not interrupted.
The German authorities made no at
tempt to detain the relief delegates
even when the order for their with
drawal was issued, and every facility
was offered 20 enable them TO leave
the country without molestation. The
report that Brand Whitlock. American
Minister to Belgium. had been com
RELIED to lower the American flag at
Brussels was received here, but il was
not confirmed, and on the other hand
the news reaching relief circles here
from Brussels gives no indication that
Minister Whitlock is not carrying on
his usual functions.
The commission consented 70 the re-
versal of the German decision on the
definite understanding that its func-
tons and activities be continued unre-
stricted.

FRENCH WAR COST
S2l,OOO,OOO ADAY
New Credit of S1,9l5,S00,
900 ASked-To Avoid
Foreign Loans

Paris, Feb. 16.-Alexandre RibOt,
Minister Of Finance. to-day asked the
French Chamber Of Deputies to appro-
pirate SI,915,sOO.OOO to cover the gov
ernment's expenditures for the second
quarter of the present year. This is
az the approximate rate of 21,000,00O
a day. This was an increase of $3.50
100000 over the appropriations for the
first quarter.
Referring TO the growing expendi-
lures, NJ. Ribot said:
The greatest of our tasks is not to
raise money at home for the growing
expenditures. 1t is in reducing the
loans made abroad to pay for foreign
purchases. We must better utilize our
own forces of production and put an
end TO all importations that are not
vigorously necessary.
Eve should have confidence in
France. We should talk frankly to the
people and show them the difficulties
and sacrifices that are indispensable.
With sincere talk and order in our
methods and vigor in our actions there
is nothing we cannot obtain from this
noble country, which is resolved to do
everything and to suffer everything re-
CURED 70 conquer and to secure peace
that will preserve it from fresh aggres-
sion"
Explaining the situation in the
Treasury, NJ. Ribot pointed out that re-
ceipts were increased by 100000 in
1916 over 1915 from direct taxes and by
1852, 000. 900 from indirect taxes. The
total receipts were pa per cent below
those of normal year.
