EAT HEAD OFF,
Dutch Coming to Urge the
Lifting of U. S.
Embargo
100000 TONNAGE
is INVOLVED
Licenses Refused on Ground
That Germany Might
Be Aided

New York, July 2s.-Pending the ar
rival in this country of j. b. van de-
Houven van Cordt and other members OF
commission which has been appointed
by the Dutch government to urge the
lifting OF the ban on exports to the
Netherlands, at least 60 ships flying the
Dutch flag are "eating their heads Off
with demurrage charges in New York
harbor. The situation has grown sc
serious that the ships would unload ex'
eept for the prohibitive cost of lighter
age just now.
The ships are loaded with -four, grain
oil cakes, lard and bacon, as well as
miscellaneous supplies, and the total
tonnage is said to be more than 100000.
Just before the exports embargo act
went into effect II Dutch freighters
broke from the harbor without having
obtained permission from the British
admiralty and tried to make run for it.
They are now gathering barnacles and
demurrage charges in Halifax harbor,
where they were taken by British cruis-
ers.
The other ships of the Dutch fleet
were moved from their piers and an
chored in the Hudson river and the bay
pending government action on their ap-
plications for export licenses. These H.
censes were refused on the ground that
the supplies consigned TO the Neither
lands really were intended for Germany.
Holland even offered to give up part OF
her tonnage for the transportation OF
foodstuffs to the Belgium relief commits
sion, but the offer did not affect the
governments attitude.
British and French agents have gath
cred incontrovertible evidence that the
Dutch have been selling grain and other
foodstuffs to Germany and that the large
increase in her imports from the United
States all goes to support an enemy
army. Holland has received its price
from the Germans, the state department
says in effect; it must now pay the
price itself
There also are a number of ships from
Norway, Denmark and Sweden in the
harbor unable to sail because of the en-
barge. Their case is on all fours with
that of the Dutch.
The United States is putting these
countries on rations virtually. lnforma-
ton at Washington is that they will be
self supporting for some time to come
and that any import would enable them
to sell to Germany 1t is safe to say no
food will go to them until the United
States knows it is needed to prevent near
starvation.
The Swiss government long ago organ
lied a special bureau to deal with inn
ports and to assure the United States,
Great Britain and France that Germany
was not being fed. France gave the
Swiss port and agreed to permit Swift
zerland to sell certain quantity of
supplies to Germany in return for coal. !
This agreement never has been broken
by the Swiss, according to the best in
formation in this country.

ROOSEVELT SNUBS
MAYOR THOMPSON
He Refuses to Speak at a Meeting If
Chicago Man
Does,

Pittsburg, July 2s.-Col Theodore
Roosevelt was on his way home yester-
day after a brief but satisfying visit
to this city, in the course of which he
snubbed William Hale Thompson, Chi
Cages mayor, and condemned pawn
broker patriotism"
The ex.president's visit to Pittsburg
was occasioned by the annual convention
of the Loyal Order of Moose, of which
the colonel is an honorary member He
delivered the principal speech at the con.
vention Thursday and was the feature
of the parade through the city's streets
Thursday night.
In his speech Col. Roosevelt assailed
the preparations which the government
has made for the war and declared for
universal military training in the United
States after the war as security
against repetition of unpreparedness
such as handicapped the nation in the
present crisis, He described the coun-
try's unpreparedness as miracle of ma
tional inefliciency."
Mayor Thompson, whose activities in
Chicago have smacked of proGerman-
ism, was also a guest at the convention,
He sought TO see Col. Roosevelt, but was
denied the privilege of an interview. Fur
thermore Col. Roosevelt informed the
managers that if Thompson
was allowed to talk at the big open air
meeting he would not Needless TO say
the colonel spoke at the meeting and
Mayor Thompson did not.

BIC INCREASE IN
BRITISH TITLED LAND
Add $4,000 Acres TO Total - Private
Growers Not Included in
This Amount.

London, July IS. 49, In England and
Wales the increased acreage in wheat,
barley, oats and potatoes this year is
3f7 900 acres, or about six per cent, ac.
cordng to the official returns published
yesterday. These figures do not include
any allowance for the enormous efforts
made by small growers, the results
whereof II Is impossible 20 collect &C.
curate figures.
The official estimate is that "the area
of small cultivation has been quadru.
Piled and this estimate probably has been
below the mark, as the number OF small
vegetable gardens in England and Wales
has been increased by more than half a
million, and the displacement of flowers
by vegetables has been general in gar.
dens throughout the country"
The figures published yesterday con
stitute the first authoritative evidence
Of the tremendous agricultural efforts
which have been made throughout Great
Britain
Unofficial estimates had placed the in
creased acreage at about 100000 acres,
and in view of climatic conditions and
labor shortage, il would have been sur
prising if these estimates had proved
over-optimistic. That these estimates
were exceeded by $1,000 was due largely
to the assistance given by the war Office
in lending soldiers for work on the land.
Without such help, it would have been
impossible to avert decrease from that
of 1916 of at least 100000 acres.

the department of justice intends vigor.

To Remove Dust from Velvet or Plush
Every one knows how hard it is to re-
move lint or an accumulation of dust
from velvet or plush goods, An improve
ment over the ordinary damp-cloth or
soft cloth or soft-brush method is to
sprinkle salt over the goods and remove
with stiff brush. The dust sticks to
the salt and instantly disappears.
