To Continue Relief Work
in Turkey Despite Break

Henry Morgenthau announced last
night that Americas break with Ger
many would not interfere with the
work of the Armenian and Syrian Re-
lief Committee. The announcement
was accompanied by an appeal for con
tributions, which have practically
dropped to zero since President Wilson
appeared before Congress to tell Of
the German break.
"The probability of Americans leav-
ing Turkey is very remote" Mr.. Nor
genthau said, because America has
been Turkeys truest and most disin-
terested friend. and it is unlikely that
Turkey would wish to change her rela-
tions with this country. Americas in
terest in Turkey has been humane; not
commercial or political. Turkey real
ICES this.
Even if a more difficult situation
arises. the committee has many ave-
nues by which it can reach the suffer
ers. Among some of the most self
sacrificing and efficient distributors OF
relief among the Armenian refugees
are the German, Swiss and Swedish
missionaries"

Germans OuSted
From Coast Guard
and Lighthouses
Officers of New York Navy Yard
Also Begin Eliminating
Projections

San Francisco, Feb. 7.-Unnaturalized
Germans in the United States coast
guard and lighthouse services were dis
missed here to-day in accordance with
orders from Washington. All the men
discharged had made declaration of in
tention TO become citizens, but had not
taken out their final papers.
II was said similar orders would be
carried into effect in the United States
transport service.
Officers Of the New York Navy Yard
began the work Of eliminating all en-
ployes known TO be of pro-German
sympathies from the naval service yes
terday. One Waterman received an IN
definite leave of absence, and several
men who have held responsible posi-
tions in the shipbulding and repairing
departments were transferred to other
duties.
Since the beginning Of the European
war open pro- German boasts had stirred
officers Of the yard, but IT had been
thought that nothing could be done u
stop them.
Since the break with Germany, how.
ever, the situation has been different
When the boasts continued IL was de.
cided that the navy yard had no need
for the services of men whose sym
pathies were with another nation. Tx
plantations made TO them yesterday were
such as would not make II possible FOL
the men transferred 10 ask for an IN
vestigation.

Neutrals Will Not Risk
D.. Rumania's Fate, Say
Newspapers
EXPECT PROTESTS,
BUT NOT BREAKS
ACCESSIBILITY of Allowing
Americans in Belgium
Is Doubted

Berlin, Feb. THE morning news
papers continue to concern themselves
with the American problem, devoting
their leading editorials generally to
discussion of President Wilson's sug-
gestion to neutrals 10 sever relations
with Germany. For this, they assert
they see a complete failure.
As far as European small powers
are concerned, the newspapers say that
protests are expected from many II not
all of them, but it is predicted that
none of these powers will push It's
protest to the point of rupturing dip
iomatic relations, while the entrance
into the war by any of them, with
what is termed the warning example
of Rumania before its eyes, is regard
ed as out of the question.
Among the newspapers taking this
standpoint are the moderate "Nor-
waerts." the "Tageblatt' and Ger
mania" as we'll as the Chauvlnlstic
"Die Post" The military organ the
"Kreuz Zeitung." expresses the .opin-
ion that one or two of the South Amer
lean republics, notably Brazil, may
follow President Wilson's lead.
The "Tages Zeitung' alone reters 10
the intimation that the American dlplo..
mats and members of the Belgian Reilei
Committee may remain in Bel gum ana
expresses doubt as to the advisaollity
of permitting this. ,..,
The tone of to-day's editorial COM
ment is marked by the absence OF any
excitement or even much Ill nature
though a number of the newspapers IN
Guiding journals moderate in character,
chide President Wilson for what they
term inconsistency between his senate
message on peace without victory ana
the evils of coalition and his present at
titude of supporting one, coalition
which they say is bent on the destruc-
ton of Germany, and endeavorlng 10
form a second coalition of neutrais.
Count Won Reventlow, commenting
in the "Tages Zeitung" on reports that
the United States had seized German
vessels in American ports, declares that
such a step will have no effect on tne
German submarine war, which can only
be Influenced by the question OF mill
tary usefulness. The writer adds that
such a seizure of German vessels would
be a hostile act, without any legal Justl-
fcation, and that further information is
awaited

SEEKS TO SAVE
YOUNG BELGIANS
Chairman Hoover, Despite
Break, Presses New
Plans for Relief

While the Commission for Relief in
Belgium is marking time, pending the
outcome of the break in relations be-
tween the United States and Germany,
Chairman Herbert c. Hoover announced
yesterday that the new plans, whereby
this country could give more aid to the
starving Belgian populace, were being
carried out with vigor.
Mr.. Hoover returned yesterday from
Washington, where he had gone to
make preliminary arrangements for
turning over the relief distribution
work in Belgium in case of war be-
tween the United States and Germany.
1--WE don't know just where we stand
for the time being" said Mr.. Hoover.
But we'll have to find way to feed
the Belgians. The list of individuals,
organizations and communities in this
country pledging themselves to help
feed the children of certain communes
in Belgium is growing. But we must
have more pledges or the children will
either die of malnutrition or grow up
physically subnormal."
The funds collected under this new
plan will be expended for food pre-
scribed by an American physician. DR..
William Palmer Lucas, of the Univer-
sity of California, who recently made
tour of Belgium in behalf Of the COM
mission.
DR.. Lucas said the children could de-
velop normally if provided daily with
one extra feeding consisting of bis
cult four inches square, one inch thick,
made Of white -four. lard and sweeten-
ing. and a cup of cocoa or soup so
thick that it was almost hash.
George Barr Baker, in charge of the
new scheme for saving the Belgian
children. announced that the following
new pledges for feeding the children of
various communes had been received:
New York man, so children for
twelve months.
Miss Phyllis de Young, San Fran
cisco, 100 children, ten months.
Pennsylvania Committee of Women,
C. R. B., 1924 Walnut Street, Philadel-
phia, 64S children, six months, and 72S
children, eight months.
Mr.. and Mrs. Woolston, Philadelphia,
lis children, twelve months.
Mrs. Charles +. Coke, Philadelphia,
1O5 children, six months.
New Bedford, Mass, through the ef-
forts of Mrs. A. II. Swift, will support
$50 children for one year.
Mrs. Pinney and Mrs. Male, New
York City, 120 children for twelve
months.
Pennsylvania Committee of Women,
c. r. B., Reading, Penn, LBS children
for one year.
II. S. Kimball, New York City, 100
children, one year.
Frederick X. Rupprecht, New York
City, 100 children for one year.

Change of Port
of Call Is Urged
by Neutral Lines

The situation regarding the sailing OF
foreign ships from this port remained
as clouded as ever last night. At the
Offices of the Swedish-American Line it
was stated that sailing of the Stock
holm, scheduled TO leave Saturday with
over 300 passengers, had been post
poned until Monday.
At the Offices of the other neutral
lines the rumor was current that ne
gotiations were in progress to estab
lish a different port of call for Nor
wegian. Swedish and Danish passenger
ships. which would permit them TO sub
init TO inspection without going through
either the prohibited areas surrounding
Kirkwall or Falmouth.
The ports of either Halifax or Ber-
muda were suggested as practicable
and would not force the neutral YES
sells TO run the gantlet of mines and
U-boats.
"If such an arrangement might be
effected il would result in the early
resumption Of sailings OF all neutral
lines" said an official of one of the
largest neutral steamship companies.
"The chief stumbling block in the
present PLAN" the official continued, "is
not that neutral steamship companies
object to having their vessels searched
by the British. although at times it
proves n bit irksome, but the fact that
neutral companies are compelled 10 en-
danger the lives of neutral citizens,
bent on a peaceful mission, as well as
the possible loss of the ship and her
valuable cargo by passing through an
area where mines arc known to be
strewn broadcast"
Shipping men consider Halifax the
most logical port OF call for inspection,
as il is only a short distance from the
direct transatlantic lanes Of ocean
travel. Bermuda, on the other hand,
would lengthen the voyage more than
1000 miles. with resultant increase
in coal consumption. 1t is believed
that until Great Britain consents 10
change the port of call from Falmouth
and Kirkwall to some less dangerous
port, all neutral vessels will remain in
poIt.

"Mv earnest hope said Senator
Lodge, "is that at this time personal

my Judgment, would be the most dis
astrous thing that could possibly hap
