Zone Postal Rates
Regulations Issued
Ascending Rate for Advertis.
ing Will Reach 10 Cents
in Fourth Year

WASHINGTON, May 27.--Regula-
tions establishing the zone system of
postal rates for newspapers and mag
azines have been issued by the Post
master General.
That part of periodicals devoted to
reading matter after July 1 is assigned d
a rate of IL cents pound for the
first year and 1 " thereafter. The por-
tion of periodicals devoted to adver-
tising matter is assigned zone rates
running from i Il to 3A cents the first
year. In 1919 the regulations provide a
scale running TO 5t2 cents, while in the
third year the charge is raised to TX
cents in the furthest zone and in the
fourth it is raised to 10 cents. Inter
mediate zones take a rate proportion
ately increasing.
To make effective the discrimination
between the weight of reading matter
and advertising, the regulations pro-
vide that all publishers shall file a
copy of every publication marked to
show the percentages of each. Publish
ers are also required to separate pub
lications in mailing in accordance with
the zones to which copies are destined
The separation can be avoided only
by the filing of circulation estimates
showing the percentage of publications
going into the different zones.

Wilson Confers With
Baker and Lansing
On Mexican Incident
(Spec;al Dispatch to The Tribune)

Especial Dispatch to The Triouno)
WASHINGTON, May 27.-Carlos
Manuel de Cespedes. Cuban Minister
70 the United States. issued the fol-
lowing statement late to-day:
"The Mexican government informed
the Cuban Charge d'Afaires in Mexico
that the recall of the Mexican Charge
d'Affaires from Havanaedoes not imply
a severance OF diplomatic relations.
The Cuban government is hopeful that
the difficulties will find satisfactory
solution.
Cuba is engaged in the stern task
of fulfilling her duties. as an ally and
as a belligerent. to- the great cause
defended by the United States and
the nations of the Entente. While
willing to defer to every just claim of
friendly nations, and especially to
those of any of our sister republics,
the Cuban government cannot depart
from the policy of vigilance and GER
tain restrictions made necessary by
the state of war without mourning
great sponsibilities.
An unexplained visit of President
Wilson to the War and State depart
ments this AFTERNOON was believed to
have been in connection with the Mex
lean situation. The President went
first to Secretary Bakers Office, and
after a ten minutes conversation with
the War Secretary the President and
Mr.. Baker proceeded together to the
Office of Secretary Lansing, where they
were in conference half an hour.
Neither Mr.. Lansing nor Mr.. Baker
would discuss the visit of the Presi-
dent The President went unan-
nounced and his visit implied urgency.
1t was generally believed that the
Mexican situation was reviewed and
that the President sought the opinions
of his two chief advisers on the mean
ing of Mexicos severance of relations
with Cuba.
Under the Platt amendment the
United States is constituted the pro-
tector of Cuba. and while it has been
the policy of the Administration to
overlook many of the irritating diff
culties raised by Mexico as affecting
the United States alone. it was not
thought likely here that President
Wilson would tolerate any hostile act
by Mexico against Cuba. virtual de-

Sanitary Experts Make For
NAL Report to Copeland
and Mayor

The $1,000,00O garbage disposal plant
at Green Ridge, Staten Island, which
was bitterly opposed by the 100000 in
habitants of Staten Island a year ago
last May, was pronounced a public
nuisance" by inspectors of the Board
of Health in report to Commissioner
of Health Royal S. Copeland last night.
This report has also been forwarded to
Mayor Hylan.
In their report the sanitary experts
set forth that the fumes and gases
emitted from the plant can be detected
a mile and half away. They have di-
rected the Bi-Product Company, owner
of the plant, to abate the nuisance, or
the plant will be closed down.
Before the plant was put into opera

efforts to force its removal. They ap-
pealed to former Mayor Mitchell and
Governor Whitman, but received the
comforting assertion from the Gov
ernor that if there was a nuisance he
would order it investigated

Anglo-Russian Relief
Workers Reach Japan
Red Gross Party Forced to
Quit by Germans ON
Way to England

correspondence OF The associated Press)
TOXIC, April 22.-Including the last
British war relief workers to leave
Russia, the Anglo Russian Field Hos
ptal unit, with Lady Muriel Paget at
ITS head, party of fortyfve British
subjects, war workers, consular Off
Gals and civilians, have arrived in
Toxic and Yokohama on their way
home.
Lady Muriel Paget is the represen-
tative of the London committee of the
Anglo Russian Hospital unit, which is
maintained by subscriptions from
British colonies. 1t is one OF the or
CARNATIONS which answered the call of
the Russian Red Cross in 1915, and
after two years of active work from
Archangel south, into Galicia and
Rumania, ended up at Odessa, where
the party waited two months hoping to
establish hospital for some faction
which would fight the Germans.
1--WE remained in Russia as long as
our unit could render aid," said Lady
Paget. "However, when peace was de-
clared with Germany, when the fight
ing stopped and our supplies were cut
of. there was nothing to do but
leave" Lady paget went to Russia as
the representative of the committee in
1915 to replace Lady Sybil Grey
daughter of Sir Edward Grey, who had
been wounded
During the winter of 1916 the hos
pital workers went south into Galicia
and spent the winter months in the
Carpathians, near Kirlibaba. At the
time of the final Russian offensive the
unit was told to take part, but the
drive ended too soon, and the unit went
to Kamenetz Podolsk, the capital of
the government of Podolia, where it
was the only Red Cross hospital in the
city, and where under great difficulty
its work of relief was carried out.
In ten days 10000 wounded from the
retreat from Galicia were cared for
The Red Cross contingent then went
to be done with the armies decreased
and at the same time it became impos-
sslble to obtain men and supplies from
England.

Appeals for Life Susten-

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The Amer
lean Labor Mission, before departing
for America after making a compre-
hensive study of conditions in Eng
land and France, issued the following
public statement urging the American
people to take every possible step to
conserve food:
"Since landing in England the COM
mittee has visited a number of cities
and interviewed a large number Of
people regarding the food situation, as
we'll as other war matters. and we feel
1T our duty to impress Spon the Amer
lean people that they should conserve
food in larger measure in order that
we may supply the people of the AL
lled countries with subsistence.
Inere is no doubt that the people
OF Great Britain and of the Allied
countries are making untold sacrifices
more than America realizes. Not.
wlthstanding these sacrifices, no mem
Der OF the mission has heard a single
word of complaint"
Edwin 7. Meredith, administrator of
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, member of the mis-
sion, said:
"Thc people of the Allied countries
realize that everything the free people
of the world hold dear is at stake and
are willing to make any sacrifices that
the cause of democracy may prevail.
Food is scarce, and it is up to America
to alleviate that scarcity. Great Brit
ain and France are suffering more than
can be described. l urge our people to
give greater cOnSidera tion +o +h o;r ~

there, especially in the matter of food
saving. by the people, without COM
plant"
The American Labor Mission, now
sailing, was appointed by President
Wilson to study conditions in England
and France. 1t has been received by
the English King and Parliament. and
by the President and Chamber of Depu-
ties in France, and held many meetings
in both countries.
The mission while abroad refused to
consider any meeting in which dele
gates from Germany were to be allowed

Proposes Annexation
OF Occupied France
Hindenburg, "Sorry for Inhab.
itants," Would Populate
Country with Germans
The NeW York Tribune
Foreign Press Bureau

Hinderburg has a new scheme for
handling the invaded territories of
France. He feels very sorry for the
French people and depiores the hard
ships they have suffered, says the
"Deutsche Tageszeitung,n and desires
to ameliorate their condition. Hence,
he would keep the invaded provinces as
German territory and make life pleas
ant for The French by settling German
colonists among them. The "Tages
Zeitung's" account of this plan says:
"While speaking of the fate of
France, the great field marshal di-
lated on the hard fate of the in
habitants of the occupied French ter
ritories, who had been driven from
house and home by the necessities of
the war. 4
after the war, he said, there
would remain only one way in which
to repopulate these devastated re-
gions. The French population being
too meagre, it would be necessary, in
the first place, to recompense our
own people somewhat for the priva-
tions they had endured, and also with
the view of recreating prosperity in
the conquered French territories, to
encourage in every way possible Ger
man emigration to these parts, and to
help German settlers to found fam
lilies in the one-time enemy country.
"I would like said Hindenburg,
'to see every German laborer in the
possession of his own house in
France, and in the enjoyment of a
nice garden, so that he might live
there life of peace and JOY with his
dear ones, and of harmony with his

Orders Cornmeal Used
10 Per Cent in Bread Here
REQUIRED bv u. S.

An ovel supply of cornmeal in New
York resulted in conference of
bakers and representatives of the Fed
eral Food Board yesterday. AS a re-
suit an order was issued by the Food
Board requiring at least 10 per cent
of cornmeal in bread, rolls and similar
products. Their decision to make the
use of cornmeal compulsory was in
fuenced by reports issued yesterday
by the Federal Department of Agrl-
culture as a result of experiments
conducted by leading scientists of
Yale, Stanford, Cornell and other uni
versities that wheat might, if neces-
sary, be replaced entirely by such
cereals as rice, barley, oats and corn.
The decision to order cornmeal used,
however, does not alter the present
regulations regarding the use of wheat
-four Bakers may still use 10 per cent
in their products. 1t is hoped, how
ever, that the introduction of the new
cereal will result in cutting that
amount by at least the 10 per cent of
the new element introduced.
