The separation of relief work in
Belgium from that in France was de-
termined on by the war council owing
to the present difficulties of communi-
cation and transportation in France.
By establishing new department at
HaVre, the present seat of the Belgian
government, the Red Cross program
of relief in that part of Belgium still
outside the German grip will be we'll
under way before the winter begins. =
Two Of the ablest administrators o!
the Red Cross commission to France,
Ernest P. Bickneil, former director
general of civilian relief of the Red
Cross, and DIR. John van Schaick, have
been placed in charge of this new
work.
Comprehensive plans, for whose ex-

forwarded their records and other
data to the proper officials in Wash

willingness to serve back of the bat

Instructions we're received from
Washington recently, informing the
local workers that no moro bandages
would be accepted from units. Here
after all bandages will be made in
factories, as the work can be done
quicker. This means that the local
chapter will abolish the making Of
bandages of all descriptions.
A Red Cross unit mas been organi-
zed on Molokai by Mrs. George p.

make bed shirts and send them to the
local headquarters for transhipment.

him only five minutes to escape from

solutely undisturbed as to nails and
ropes, notwithstanding Houdini had
been in and out of it. one of the COM

had cherished the delusion that Hou-

afterward Houdini can get away with
the deception. The packers intend to
work out another absolutely sure way

TREATY BERLIN WANTS
WITH UNITED STATES
Protection for Commercial Interests
and Nationals ip Case
of War.


BERLIN, February II, via London,
February 15.-Foreign Secretary Zim-
mermann. in an informal discussion to-
day with the correspondent of the AS
ISOLATED Press, explained the amended
version of the Observation-Disclosures treaty
of 1899, which Germany is now submit
ting, through the Swiss government.
for the approval of the United States.
Herr Zimm ermann declared that the
informing of civilians and the confisca-
lion of private property We're prepos-
ferrous steps TO which his government
was unalterably opposed.
The proposed amended treaty deals
in the broadcast manner with the pri-
Vate commercial interests and personal
liberties of the subjects of both coun-
tries The German proposal would
make articles 90 and - of the treaty
effective Immediately upon the sever
ance of diplomatic relations as well as
in the event of declaration of war,
and would extend their protection over
all German merchants in the United
states bat would affect American mer-
chants only in Prussia, not in the en-
tire German empire.
