Yet There Us No Intention of Help ing Feed Germans in Indirect Way-Proposal Is Made
 to the Dutch
By Associated Pres.

Washington, September 1.-Indicn- tions that the United States intends to ration the northern European ncu- tral countries In the strictest fashion were seen today In the admission that the exports administrative board has disapproved of an arrangement sus- gested by the Dutch minister here and the Belgian relief com mission for di- vision between Holland and Belgium If the nearly 100 Dutch grain cargoes held in American ports.
 The first news that permission for the ships to sail had been denied came today in a dispatch from Rotterdam. The general understanding had been that the arrangement would be ap- proved and that some of the vessels would sail immediately. ORDER IS ISSUED The exports board. 1t was learned, will let no food cargoes go to European lneutrals for least two months. or until the American government has Iascertained its own food requirements for the year and the size of crops that are to be harvested. All of u
 trals. 1t is held, can feed tn, avsf without difficulty until this i tion is available. The United wishes to know also the size areps l to be harvested in the neutrt oaa tries this fall.

 Most of the Dutch ships in American lports are loaded with corn, which haa lspoiled and is fit only for cattle feed. lThis was taken into consideration by lthe exports board. which held that the heed for cattle feed is much greater lin the United States than in Holland.
 It is not known how the neutrals will Hook on the suggestion that all their
 ships, numbering about 150, discharge

WISCONSIN'S VIEW |.

Senator LaFollette said at least two
 billion of distinctive war profits
 should be taken by the government
 citing that profits of the past war pc
 riod would be left undisturbed ana
 normal peace time profits as well. Both senators declared that the
 finance committee leaders. in bringing
 in their compromise amendments to
 add $500, ,000 to the war profits sec :
 tions. had been driven and forced by sentiment in the Senate and through out the country for higher taxation Chairman Simmons and Senators Lodge and Penrose made spirited explanatory replies to the effect that the commit ] tee had not changed it's provisions for war profits taxation. but had acceded to the demand for increases by provid : | ing for additional taxation of ordi : nary excess, including peace period profits.

CONCEDE DEFEAT

Although determined to continue the
 fight next week for higher rates, many
 of the radical group tonight private
 ly conceded defeat. X few thought il
 possible they could carry an amend d
 nent for flat tax Of 40 lo 50 per cent but others admitted the commit tee provision probably would stand Disappointment at the small vote for Senator Johnson's so per cent amend : ment was privately expressed by the high tax leaders and some believed that their maximum strength would not go above 35 or 40, even for the minimum increase provisions pending.

JOHNSON OPENS DEBATE

Senator Johnson opened the fight with an impassioned plea for increas- ing tax levies on swollen fortunes. He advocated taking the largest per centage possible of war profits, leay ing normal peace time profits un, touched. If not taxed this year, the California senator said millions would go untaxed.
 We do not hesitate to break hearts, to break bodies. he said, "but we hes itate to take profits-made out of our blood and bone

HOUSE PASSES BIG WAR LOAN
Seven Billion Dollars Appropriated to
Wage War Against Kaiser.

socialist, lodging the issue by voting
presently the house of representa-
tives voted $1,000, 100000, the largest
appropriation ever submitted to con-
gress, to wage war against Germany.
The vote was $50 to o.
OF the total, it is specified that $3,-
coo, 100000 is to be lent to the nations
now carrying the fight in Europe but
the house took particular pains to en-
phasiZe the idea that they approved
the loan as the best method of bring
ing about the early defeat of Germany,
and not as a beneficent donation to
anyone across the water.
The vote was immensely significant
as showing that the representatives
are absolutely united in the determin-
alton to spare no resource in the fight
against Germany. It was the first poll
on a vital measure, since war was de-
clared, and it found all of the men
and the one woman member, jeanette
Rankin, who voted against war, stand
ing squarely with the government.

MEXICANS MENACE BORDER
carranza Masses 100000 Soldiers
Near American Soil.

FL Paso, Tex.-One hundred thous-
and Mexican soldiers are being mass
ed along the American border by the
Carranza government. Every Mexican
town on the border is to have a garri-
son stronger than any previously plac-
ed in it and artillery including several
hundred new and large guns are be-
ing placed in each town.
This was learned by American army
men through Mexican sources.
The Mexican government gives as a
reason for the big military movement
its desire to preserve neutrality of
Mexico in the war between the United
States and Germany. American army
men see in the movement a menace
to every American town on the Dor

summoned a neutrals' conference,
which will sit in Stockholm with the
task of defending. neutral interests
against all belligerents. He hopes to
snatch from President Wilson's hands

peace.
The conference will not be confined
to the three neutral Scandinavian
states. Holland, Spain and Switzer-
land have also been invited and depu-
ties may come from neutral lands be-
yond the seas. This is the first step
seriously taken to protect the interests
of minor countries, which are suffer
ing from lack of food and from high
prices as greatly as the belligerents,
