WILL RUIN SHIP OWNERS
If British Project About Greek Shipping
Is Carried Out.

The Pirsus, Greece, March 2.-If the
British proposal to lease the Greek mer
chant fleet with the alternative of refus
ing to insure Greek boats or furnish
them with COAL is put through, the sec.
rotary of the Greek shipowners' union
states the Greek shipowners will all be
ruined, as the price offered per ton for
the lease is far below what can be OBJ
tanned in the open market to-day.
The Hellenic government has taken a
hand in the negotiations between the
British government and the shipowners
on the basis of insuring the country a
sufficient number Of bottoms to provide
for the feeding of the population. The
foodstuffs commission claims that, when
the blockade is lifted, the country will
be absolutely without everything in the
nature of bresdstuffs, potatoes, coal. ben
zine and coal oil, to say nothing of less
vital necessities. According to statistics
by the government. a minimum
Of $1,000 tons Of wheat. $4,000 tons Of
coal and 10000 tons Of other articles Of
prime necessity-sugsr, rice. potatoes,
benzine and SO forth-are required per
month for the use Of Greece. None Of
these essential articles have been allowed
to enter the country now for three
months. and the country l. almost on
starvation rations in consequence.

RED BLOOD AND BIG MUSCLE

The full-blooded man or woman
usually has large muscles. Pale peo-
pie are ordinarily thin; their muscles
are small.
Muscles are red not only because of
the blood in them but because they
contain hemoglobin, the substance
that gives the red color to the blood.
And it is this hemoglotin that carries
oxygen in the blood and stores it up in
the muscles.
Well oxidized blood is necessary If
we would have strong muscles. In fact
oxygen is the great supporter OF life.
Oxygen is used up when we work.
When set of muscles are active, as
those of the back when we lift some
thing, their oxygen is used and unless
the blood is rich and red with oxygen
bearing hemoglobin those muscles ache.
If you are pale and your back aches
don't blame your kidneys. Try build
ing up the blood with DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. These pills cause an in
crease of hemoglobin in the blood and
30 enable it to carry more oxygen.
There is renewed life and ambition.
Everywhere that the new blood goes it
carries vigor and this tonic treatment
is the one thing that most rundown,
debilitated people need.

Objection to the Contract with the Unit.

Washington, March 2--Great Britain
has withdrawn her objection and made
known her permission for Hadfields, Ltd,
an English munitions concern, to con-
tract with the United States navy for
armor- piercing shells of the a. and IT,
inch type.
Award for projectiles totalling more
than 100000, was made recently by
Secretary Daniels to Hadfields, but can
celled later when the British government
asked the company not to proceed with
the work so long as "the exigencies of
war continued" Information that the
objections had been withdrawn, was re-
ceived yesterday from Ambassador Page
at London. Secretary Daniels has award
ed some contracts to American concerns,
whose bids were much higher than Had
fields. The withdrawal of objection by
the British government may cause the
secretary to re-award the contract to
the British concern.

ANOTHER AMERICAN VICTIM.
William Eva of California Was Lost in
Laconia Disaster.

New York, March William Eva,
who was lost when the steamship La
coma was torpedoed off the Irish coast
Sunday night, was an American citizen,
according to an announcement by Cunard
line officials here last night. He was "a
years old and lived in California, where
he was interested in mining properties.
He served in the Civil war as a marine
on the. Union side, it was said.
When the Laconia sailed from here
Eva's name appeared on the passenger
list as from Montreal. He had obtained
the passport for the Holland American
liner Ryndam, and when that vessel re-
turned here after going part of the way
across the Atlantic he was transferred
to the Laconia.
Officials of the Cunard line said they
had learned that Eva was born in Eng
land, but that he was brought to this
country by his parents when he was four
years old and that his father became
nsturalized before the boy became of
age.
Eva was said to be on his way to join
his wife, who is in Cornwall.

FAVOR OLD TURKS
To Combat Influence of Islam in Greek
Macedonia.

Macedonia.
Saloniki, Greece, March ITO combat
the influence of Islam among the Mus
sulmen inhabitants of Greek Macedonia
the allied powers have espoused the
cause OF the old Turks against the young
Turks now in control in Constantinople
and are declared to be financing con
siderable propaganda in favor of the re-
establishment of the old regime in Tur-
key. The leading agent of this work in
Macedonia is a former aide camp OF
the deposed Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan,
one Col A. Samy Bey, who, on official
occasions, is almost completely hidden
under curtain of gold braid and decora-
tions. AT present he is editing and pub
fishing newspaper intended for cireula-
tion among the Mussulmen inhabitants
of Greece. entitled, the "Star of Islam"
For a brief period, he edited similar
paper in Athens, but as the Turks are
not popular among the Greeks of old
Greece, he appeared to be wasting his
time and was ordered to Saloniki to CO.
operate with the Venizelist movement by
bringing the Mussulmen over to the cause
of the Cretan.
Col Ssmy speaks of his work as a
Crusade" and draws his religious au-
thority for it from rescript which he
received from the grand sheriff of Mecca,
guardian of the tomb of the prophet, and
officially recognized by Great Britain,
France and Italy as king of the Hedjaz,
on Jan 3. The Bey's temporal author
ity depends upon old Abdul Hamid,
whom Col. Samy refers to as that grand
politician who was ever, in Turkey, the
high protector OF the Greek element"
Col. Ssmy fled Turkey at the same
time with Abdul Hamid in 1909 on ac
count, he says, of his entente sym
pathies. He claims to be Greek sub.
iect. Since the beginning of the pres
ent war he has been busy with the Mo
hammedans in Arabia, Syria, Palestine
and Africa, spreading his propaganda in
favor of the old regime in the Ottoman
empire. In Macedonia he works in touch
with Esssd Pasha.

Amendments to Election Laws.

Election matters are getting much
attention in the senate these days.
One senate bill has been reported out
of committee that provides for the
direct election Of delegates to national
party conventions, instead of their
selection in state conventions. 1t also
provides that the delegates be paid
$50 each for their services to their
parties in attending the conventions.
Another election amendment bill
seeks to change the time OF the state
primaries, held every two years, from
the last Tuesday in August to the first
Tuesday in September. Campaigners
who would like to have more time for
the campaign than the present pri-
mary law allows them wanted the
election held earlier in August, but
farmer members OF the senate OBJ
jectcd that such change would bring
the election at harvest time and this
objection appears to have killed the
early primary date.
