Spy Posed Abroad
 As Citizen of U. s.

New York, April 4-The case of George Born, under arrest here to- day, is described by federal officials as a typical instance of a German spy working in England under the cloak of American citizenship. The tech- nical charge against Born is that of graudulently obtaining a passport from the United States consul in Hull, Eng. He was held in default of $5,000 bail.
 Born, described as a1 former lieu tenant of Uhlans, came Ito this coun- try five years ago and went to Wilkes Barre, Pa. When the war began, it is said, he came to New York and re- ported to Capt. Boy Ed, naval attache of the German embassy. He was sent to England, posing as an Ameri- can citizen. In November, 1915, he was arrested in Hull but released af- ter he had convinced the American consul there that he was bona fide American.

IRRITATION
 EASILY CURED

When you suffer with any skin trou- ble, even though the itching seems un- bearable, do not think that 1t is nec- essary to use some disgusting, greasy ointment. Try Hokara, a pure and simple cream, that is guaranteed to contain no grease or acids and which is so cleanly that it does not soil the linen.
 Its power to instantly relieve any irritation of the skin and make it soft, white and beautiful is almost miracu- lous.
 Not only do minor skin troubles like pimples, blackheads, acne, barber's itch, etc, quickly disappear, but the worst ulcers or cases of salt rheum or eczema are cleansed and healed by this wonderful skin food, In order that any one may try Ho- kara at small expense w. P. Hindle's Drug Store are selling a liberal-siZed jar at 35c, and in addition guarantee to refund the money if the treatment does not do all that is claimed for it..

FOOD EXPERIMENTS WILL SHOW RATION
 NEED FOR U. S. BOYS

New York, April 4.-scientific ex- periments on American boys to deter mine the quantity and quality of food best suited to insure maximum phys icaa endurance are understood to have been indirectly responsible for recent changes pursued by the German and Belgian commission in increasing the ration for children. Through this eco- homie reform it is expected that the death rate from tuberculosis in Ger many and Belgium will be decreased.
 In view of the international situa- tion, in which the United States is forced to consider problems of agri- culture and the food supplies both for home and Entente consumption, a movement has been put under way, 1t was learned today, to have American scientists take the question up with the government.

eight hours. Another step is the ap- pointment Of a board to inspect and appraise merchant vessels requ1si- toned by the government This is designed to prevent repetition ot one of the scandals of the Spanish American war.
 The Council of National Defense will announce the perso mel and scope of the Commercial Economy Board within a day or two. The council stated that 'the members of the board will be among the best qualified men in the Nation"
 In placing the distribution of com modities on an efficient basis, the board will begin at the farm or fac tory and will go all the way to the consumer. It will examine the activi. ties of the cold storage men who seek to corner perishable products and hold them for higher prices, as well as the elevator and mill men who seek to hoard grain and flour. The farmer inclined to hoard his pro- ducts will not be overlooked.
 New Cabinet Positions
 It was said that a Secretary of Munitions and a Secretary of Trans portation might be added to the Cabi- net. No steps were taken at the meet Ing today toward the creation of such positions, however.
