COATED RICHMOND,
a 1917
CORPORATION COMMISSION.
The Johnson City comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1916-1917, 1917-02-01

warnings of "a world fire" and Sec
retary Lansing's verge of war" state
ment are being recalled in the capital
tonight with feelings Of apprehension
and misgiving.
Germanys action is the super-crisis
of all those that have stirred the
American government in two and
half years of world war.
Talk of peace in Europe and Of
means of preserving the peace of the
world has gone glimmering.
President Wilson, incredulous at
first when the unofficial text of Ger
many's warning was brought to him
at once called for the official docu-
ment which had just been presented
to Secretary Lansing by the Ger
man ambassador. Mr.. Lansing abso-
lutely refused to make a comment.
President Wilson began at once
careful study of the document.
Presidents Task
President Wilson has the task of
deciding what shall be the course of
the United States. Three immediate
steps appear among the possibilities.
The United States might solemnly
warn Germany against violation OF
her pledges; it might be decided that
the German warning is sufficient no.
tice of an intention to disregard
those pledges and sufficient warrant
for breaking off diplomatic relations;
it might be decided to await the re-
suits of the blockade and determine
the course of the United States as
the actual operations develop.
On almost every side Germanys
drastic action is interpreted as an
omen confession of the ecectiveness OF
the British food blockade. 1t is re?
garded as a determination to strike
back in kind.

W.

bassador Gerard, the German govern
ment declared for unrestricted naval
warfare after Feb. /, New barred
zones around enemy countries are an
nOunced and Germany announces that
neutral ships playing within those
zones will do so at their own risks.
Precautions will be taken to protect
neutral ships which sailed for those
zones prior to February l, but neu-
trails are urgently advised to warn
their vessels on the way to ports in
the barred zones and direct them
awayfrom those areas. Neutral ships
in ports within the barred zones WliI
be given until February 5 to sail and
must take the shortest route out OF
the restricted areas.
Similar notes were handed by the
foreign office to the diplomatic repre-
sentatiyes of all neutral nations.

lion dollar concern engaged in manu-
racturing chemicals at Kingsport. 1t
is said that there is no friction What
ever among the directors and officers
md that alr. Bishop resigned in order
to give his attention to other business
affairs.
Dr.. J. C. Hebdon, general superin-

The Federal company has contracts
sufficient to keep the Kingsport plant

SIMPLE TRICK WILL
PREVENT A COLD
Number of Sick School Children Re
duced Where Health Nurses Instruct
the Pupils Relative to Diseases.

Colds may be prevented by knowing
how to blow your nose, according tc
Mrs. LerS A. Warner, of the Division
of Extension, of the University of Ten
nessee.
Mrs. Warner has been studying the
question of health for a number OF
years and traces most of the colds that
hinder school children in their work
to lack of this fundamental kncwl
edge.
"1he first thing a boy or girl ought
10 do upon getting up in the morning,
says Mrs. Warner, is to blow his
nose. Then just before the school bell
rings do this again. While the chile
IS young he forms the habit that he
will not forget later in life.
ITO blow the nose properly the
handkerchief should be held loosely in
the palm and two forefngers of the
hand One should lean forward slight
ly. Bury the nose in the handkerchief.
but do not touch the nose with the
thumb or fingers. Draw III the breath,
tHeH DlOW. 0ipS thc hooO' 1hoh Oi0"
again. Should one side of the nose not
feel clear, press the thumb against the
clear side and blow Repeat until each
side feels clear and clean"
In schools where health nurses are
engaged it has been shown that fol-
lowing these simple suggestions de-
creases the number of colds among the
children.

To Offer Amendments
The Webb bill for common selling
agencies abroad for American export
ers, already passed by the house, was
gone over in detail with the president
by Senator Pomere who told OF
amendments he expected to offer N
committee. These amendments are
designed to prevent exporters from
using the combinations for foreign
trade to increase prices in the united
States, and would authorize the Fed
al Trade Commission to investigate
wrong practices, and report to the
Department of Justice.
In discussing increased pay for Fed
eral employees with committee from
the Federal Employees Union pre-
