purpose OF preventing profiteering This
control is something unknown hereto
fore in Russia.
The consignment TO the Czecho- Slovak
army included $4,000 feathers and over

which the CZecho-Slovaks would have
been left to the mercy of the Siberian
winter. Some supplies had been shipped
last week to the Czecho-Slovaks as an
emergency relief before the setting in
OF the extreme cold.
Owing TO the political ard economic
situation transportation Is the greatest
problem yet unsolved, but II Is expec.e ed
that this will greatly improve in. the

the Horvath and Omsk Governments,
which Is receiving increasing support.

danger of taking too optimistic a view
regarding Germany's supposed " ,akness

Morris, United States Minister to
Sweden. In a speech before the Chicago
Chamber of Commerce.
THE Germans" he said, 'are recelv-

though thoroughly dlsorganlzed, has
never failed TO send regular shipments
OF grain TO Germany.
Germany has been accustomed to

head Of cattle In week. Then she
stopped these purchases In Sweden and
got them elsewhere. The reason she

WARNING BY CABLE CENSOR.
Editors Cautioned Against Reports
OF German Surrender.

Reports from Holland carried both by
the Associated Press and the United
Press late yesterday afternoon TO the
effect that Germany had surrendered or
was about to caused Walter s. Rogers
acting director of the Cable Press Cen
sorship Policy, to issue the following
pointed warming:
To ALL EDIToRs: Apparently Euro
pean news centres are full OF all sorts
of rumors as to the attitude Germany
is going to take regarding President
Wilson's recent communication. Press
cable censorship win not prevent en-
trance into this country OF messages
of this character. On the other hand
your attention Is called to dangers
which may arise from overemphasiz-
ing unconfrmed reports. Playing up
rumors OF this kind cannot but have
effect upon the Liberty Loan cam
paign and upon the public attitude
toward war.
