 SOIiCitOus.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 14.-That Nor way, Sweden, Holland and Denmark are extremely anxious to secure food stuffs from America is evidenced by the offer jointly to turn over forty-four hundred thousand tonnage to the Unit ed States in exchange for such food stuffs as only the United States can supply.
 Japan, on the other hand has agreed to sell outright large amount of ton mage, taking steel in payment.
 If these agreements are completed a provision will be inserted stipulat- ing in part that Sweden shall stop selling steel to Germany; and Holland will be told to discontinue to sell dairy products to Germany. or she shall get no feed for her cattle.

ANOTHER PRO-GERMAN
 ARRESTED; SEDITION

Apparently the Pro-Germans in this vicinity are looking for trouble-and they are getting it. Last night, Lud- wick Olsen, was heard to say that the President of the United States anl the whole country was no good, etc, in the presence of several citizens. One man asked him to quit making such remarks, to which he answered that he was a pro-German, that he didn't care who knew it and that there wasn't enough marshals in the territory to arrest him. Night officer Gilmore, who was attracted by the crowd, heard the remark, made the arrest, and the boaster was taken to the federal jail. He will be arraign- ed in the commissioner court prob ably this evening.

UNITED STATES MAY iNooni.EASE ARMY TO
 FIVE MILLION MEN

Stupendous preparations to muster every ounce of American man power and economic resources for the de- feat of Germany will be the answer of the United States to the Teutonic vic tories over the Russians and Italians, which means a prolongation of the war
 Here is the program, some phases of which were discussed at meeting of the president and his cabinet a few days ago.
 Legislation by Congress authoriz- ing the expansion of the Army to a maximum of 5,OOO,OOO men in gradual increments of half a million each.
 Lowering of the minimum draft age to 19 and raising of the maximum draft age, possibly to 3 5years.
 Examination of the second incre- ment of 6S7,000 draft registrants, be- ginning in December with a view to sending them to the training camps by early spring.
 Flotation of the third Liberty loan, probably for s3,OOO,OOO,OOO, next Feb ruary.
 A marked increase in war taxation particularly on the profits of business
 Legislation making it possible to restrict the manufacture of nonessen- tials and to concentrate the labor power of the Nation on the production of ships and munitions
 The reverse suffered by the Italian armies, following closely upon the mili- tary collapse of Russia, have awaken ed the administration to the realiza- tion that a much more aggressive pol icy must be pursued by the American Government.
 With another year of war assured the administration is now ready to concede that the end of the conflict is not in sight and that a struggle last ing two or three years longer is en- tirely onceivable

A GERMAN LIE IS
 DENIED BY GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 14-In- vestigation by the Department of Jus tice has convinced officials that the campaign of misrepresentation which has been advising householders not to can surplus foods on the ground that the Government will seize them, is part of the German propaganda.
 Not only does the Government lack authority to commander household canned goods and supplies, but it nev- ar has entertained any idea of doing so.
 The food administration is doing everything possible to encourage the canning of food on the ground that it would lessen the drain on the com mercial supply of foodstuffs.

CAPT. BISTROM OF BARGE ST. DAVID
 TELLS OF WRECK
Barge in Tow of Tug Daniel Kern is Wrecked on Reef At
 Khantagg Island

Capt. Frank Bistrom, master of the Barge St. David, the property of the Coastwise barge and Steamship Con- pany, of Seattle, was a passenger on the Admiral Evans last night enroute to his headquarters to report the de. tails of the wrecking of the barge while in tow of the tug Daniel Kern.
 The St. David, originally in tow of the Tug Commodore, now disabled in Yakutat, from Valdez, to Anyox, with cargo of 1,750 tons of copper ore valued at $367,000, was cut adrift from the Commodore when the latter became disabled thru the breaking of both her propeller and rudder, during stormy weather, off Yakutat. The Commodore was picked up and lowed into Yakutat by the Andrew Kelley, Canadian steamer while the Daniel Kern and San Juan were dispatched to bring in the barge, with eight mem- bers of the crew of the barge on board the Daniel Kern.
 On Wednesday evening, with the weather clear, and no wind, bright moon, the tug, towing the Barge off her course, ran the St. David up on the reefs near Khantagg island, where she struck a rock and foundered in deep water.
 The St. David had net tonnage of 1,476, was about 40 years old and was valued at $SO,O00. The amount of in- surance carried by the barge is not known but the cargo was fully GOV cred by the owners.
 The barge is a total loss the Cap. tain reports.

 Hands of Authority

CHATANOOGA,' Nov. 14.-Mrs. Daniels. wife of the Secretary of the Navy, in her opening address at the annual convention of the United Daughters of Confectionery, called upon the women of the nation to uphold tha hands of authority in ridding commun- ities near the various cantonments of the degrading influence prevailing. We as women" she said, must put aside many false ideas that have seal- ed our tongues in the past.

FAIRBANKS CITIZENS
 HAVE ABOUT REACHED
 LIMIT OF ENDURANCE

If the Fairbanks-News-M Miner reflects the real feelings of the residents o Fairbanks and vicinity, something is likely to happen to the pro-Germar element thereabout. The News says;
 From many sources in Fair banks come reports that pro-Ger- mans, particularly among the for eign element, are becoming objec- tionable in their utterances re- garding the war and the conduct of the United States. These out bursts are increasing until they are becoming very annoying to patriotic citizens.
 While the United States was neutral, Americans generally tried to observe the proclamation to avoid utterances that would in- jure the feelings of citizens of the warning nations who happened to be in America. Now, those in sym pathy with Germany are not showing common decency enough to refrain from plating. their opin- ions in places where they can be overheard by patriotic Americans They are careful not to overstep enough so that they may be ar rested for sedition, put they touch the border of sedition and treason and while they may not be handled by law, other methods may be adopted, according to threats of loyal offended Americans.
 Under these circumstances and to check sedition, the federal au thorities are anxious to have all cases reported to them where any one makes remarks detrimental to Uncle Sam or his leaders.
 It is probable also that cases of this kind will be given the widest publicity, so that everyone may know just who the people are that have to be watched.
