Sangerbund's discovery the American people
are realizing that dandruh is as unnecessary
as IL is dangerous and that they can be

German Yclp Shows Embargo

supplies to Germany, through middle
men neutrals, simply to maintain the
prosperity Of neutral trade!
Preliminary reports indicate these
neutrals do not depend for their liveli-
hood upon any considerable imports
Cutting of imports will end prosper
ity. but not jeopardize existence.
Holland, for instance, without heavy
imports of concentrated cattle reeds,
will be unable to maintain her present
great diary herds. But half her cattle
would supply her own necessary dairy
products, aud could possibly be man
tanned without importing feed.
On this very point. the Dutch, IN
protesting against the embargo, have
threatened to kill great quantities or
cattle and sell the meat to Germany
This government. while unwilling
to see meat thus turned over to Ger
many, does not take this threat seri-
ously

three dead ones, so far as Germany Is
concerned" one official here explains.

into Germany her own weight in but.
ter Tat each year, to say nothing OF
cheese and other products"
Germany has taken notice. Unable
longer to get her normal supplies
through these ,nhtral middlemen,
she sent up a great shout about the
rights" of neutrals which, as she in
terprets it. is the right Of a neutral
to buy from one belligerent and sell
1 to another what the belligerents will
not sell between themselves.
