THE Press Has Been Debating
! This Situation

In connection with the negotiations at
Washington the papers last week gave
some editorial discussion to this subje
"The Boston Evening Transcript" was
particularly severe on Holland. After re-
ferring to her present embarrassing
plight, the editor used well known quota
ton from one Of Moliere's plays, "You
would have it So George Dandin, you
would have 1t So" but adds that he leaves
It TO some severer critic to complete the
quotation with: "You have precisely what
you deserve" "The Transcript finally
sums up the case Of Holland in this
fashion,:
HOLLAND would send to Germany the food
which she needed for herself, hoping 70 get
her own wants supplied by other countries
She really has only herself TO blame II the
other countries decline thus indirectly to
feed their enemies and provide them with
munitions of war We can understand the
influences which were brought to bear upon
Holland. She could get from Germany far
higher prices for supplies than she would
have TO pay Us for other supplies 10 take
their place; and there is no tradesman in
the world with keener eye to profit than
the Dutchman. Also, we have no doubt, she
was bullied by Germany and threatened with
the fate OF Belgium II she lid not supply
Germany's needs. But not even on these ac-
counts can America and her allies be expect
ed to supply Holland, when TO supply her
means 20 supply Germany"
"The Providence Journal" after re-
ferring to the embargo and to measures
recently adopted by England, said:
"Such measures violate the common code
of smlty among nations OF course. But they
are fully justified as measures OF defence
in time Of war. ."
"The Buffalo Express mentioned the
report that the Dutch are killing off half
Of their cattle and then snaps its fingers
in the face of Holland in this style:
THAT Is nothing to worry tho Allies. II
the Dutch wish to kill their cattle and poul-
try. let them do So All that they can send
into Germany will not make any noticeable
Differences In the duration Of the war"

when Bolo Pacha's Name
W Was First Mentioned

The first mention Of Bolo Pacha in the
French press in connection with the
espionage scandals was made on August
81, when the Paris "Figaro" wrote:
"Ws have learned that Captain Bouchsrdon
investigating Judge Of the Almereyda easel
las Just summoned to Paris a certain hnan-
tier who had had continuous relations WIN
Almerevda. This fnancier Is an agent OF
TIE ex-Khedlve, who was driven out from
Egypt By the English on account Of his pro
German sympathies and Is now in Switzer-
lsnd, where he is ore Of the most active
German propagand!sts"
Three days later Gustave Nerves "La
Victoire" said
Captain Bouchardon questioned yesterday
Tor the hrst time fat individual, NJ. Bolo
Pseha who has been suspected for the last
six months Of Communication with the enemy.
We'll dressed, elegant. decorated with the
Legion Of Honor, very smart as they used

In concluding the "Victoire" said;
where did Bolo Pachs get his money? A
naturalizcd Levantine, formerly ladies'
hsirdrcseer and brokers' assistant, he is
low playing the role of fnancier' Where
oic he obtain his finances"
And then Bolo Pacha suddenly appeared
IN the headlines Of the French press. One
efter another various facts were discoy-
cred about Bolo Pacha's activities. Sena-
Tor Charles Humbert, editor Of the Paris
Journal" and NJ. Monier, president Of
me Court Of Appeals, became involved.
bolo Pacha had invested 100000 in the
Journal; Monier was said to have been
an Intimate friend of Bolo Pacha, WHOSE

foreshadowed for months by the Dutch
government as the certain and necessary
result Of the threatened embargo upon the
shipments of feedstuffs from the United
States to Holland.
Now, II is often charged or insinuated
that grain shipped to Holland is partly
passed on to Germany, and thus the posi-
bility has been conjured up that American
grain might be finally used TO feed
Americas enemy. The answer to this
charge was recently made by Leonard
Spray, the Rotterdam correspondent Of
"The London Daily Telegraph" which was
reprinted by The Tribune In It's issue of
October 4. Spray made this unequivocal
statement: "Of the grain and fertilizers
imported into Holland not . ton goes to
Germany" Spray further denied the
charge, made by section Of the English
press, that Holland was deliberately pro-
longing the war by feeding Germany.
Tho Indirect Shipment
i OF Grain
But the case against Holland, as it is
most frequently drawn up on this side Of
the water, is not that grain Itself Is ex-
ported through Holland to Germany, but
that it is fed to Dutch animals and reaches
Germany indirectly in the form Of meat or
dairy products. From this aspect of the
case, too, the general view is that the
American embargo will hit Germany hard
by making it impossible for Holland to
continue to feed Germany with American
grain in this indirect way.
1t would eeem we'll for Americans not to
exaggerate the importance Of the embargo.
Holland, It must be noted, has been regard
cd as the chief offender in the matter of
feeding Germany, in one way or another,
with American grain; but II even Denmark
and Sweden have been serving German in
terests in the same way, and to An equal
extent, the total effect Of the embargo
could certainly not be so great as TO JUS
tify the big predictions put forth in many
neutrality-suspicious. which in many cases
have visuallzed Germany brought TO her
knees.
There Is another important point in con-
nection with Hollands grain imports
which American writers often fail to take
into account. 1t is shown, for example,
that in 1913 Holland purchased from
America less than 100000 bushels of
wheat, and in 1918 nearly 32,000,00O; in
1918 40l, 634 bushels Of rye, and in 1915
nearly 100000; and then the very plausl-
bic inference is drawn that Holland was
buying merely for German account. Could
the Dutch people eat so much more bread
after the war started than before 1t broke
QUIT It Is asked, with strong presump-
ton Of truth.

WILSON AND M ADOO
TO Be Big LENDERS
Will Have Unrestricted Power to
Furnish Three Billions
To Allies.

When Congress passes the bond Is
sue bill, President Wilson and Secre-
tary McAdoo will rank among the
greatest money lenders of all time.
Under the liberal authorization of
the bill they are given unrestricted
power to loan $4,000. .OOO, 900 to foreign
governments.
J.P. Morgan & Co., through nJumer-
Gus private investment firms, floated
a loan to the allies of approximately
a billion dollars. but the one contem-
plated by President Wilson and Secre-
tary McAdoo is already three times
that amount, and before the war is
over may reach an even greater fig
ure.
ON sound Basis.
The British government alone sur
passes this money-lending feat OF two
American citizens.
The latest available statistics show
that Great Britain has loaned the al
lies since the outbreak of the war
about $4,000. 100000.
Incidentally. the "firm" of Wilson
& McAdoo is'on the soundest financial
basis of any institution in the world
today.
The wealth of the United States
Government, which stands responsible
for the ioans negotiated by the two
men, is approximately $3.50. .000. .0OO. 900.
The liabilities OF the Government
now amount only to a little over
