Silvio Crespi, the Italian Food Minister
J. r. Clynes, the British food con-

to assistance from the United States
bacon and ham hereafter would be sold
without coupons. He referred to Mr.

keep on good turns with, because he
could deliver the goods"
Premier Lloyd George, proposing the

starvation. There was now no fear
whatever, he declared that the Allies

Council of Relations Calls
for Closer Association
With Antipodes

The Council Of Relations took occa-
sion yesterday at its luncheon at the
Lawyers Club to the Australian press
representatives now passing through
this country on their way to the West
ern front to bring forward a resolution
looking to closer relations with the Far
East and with South America which, it
is expected, will exert highly salutary
influence upon our commercial pros
poets in those vast markets.
The resolution, it was explained, was
based upon the conviction that COM
merce, no less than armies, depends
upon its lines of communication, and
that our trade expansion in far ports
cannot proceed according to our pres
ent hopes until this basic factor has
first been more fully taken into ac-
count. In full the resolution reads:
Resolved, That 1T should be the poll
icy of the United States government, in
the furtherance of international and
commercial relations, to establish ade-
quate cable communications with those
countries with which our international
and commercial relations are of suf-
ticlent Importance, even though the
commercial demand for such commlni-
| cations is not sufficient to the extent of
Justifylng the construction of such
cable communications by private enter
prise, and that this committee be
authorized to cooperate with the proper
governmental departments in an effort
to establish such q policy"

room to wash his hands. Miss Young
said she was suspicious and followed
him, while the detective waited in the
dining room. She reached the bath
room in time to see More just finish

Transit Lines Plead
For Higher F are
Company Officials Appear Be-
fore Board of Estimate
and Apportionment

The Franchise Committee of the
Board Of Estimate and Apportonment
to-day will hear the arguments Of the
street railway companies for permission
to increase fares on their lines.
Although the Public Service Commits
sion has intimated that it should con-
slider the question, it is not likely that
the Franchise Committee will take any
definite action at this time. Although
1T has been represented by some Of the
railway companies that unless they are
permitted to increase fares they will
be thrown into bankruptcy, city officials
are not viewing this situation with any
alarm.
Corporation Counsel Burr, it was
learned yesterday, has been examining
the contracts between the city and the
companies to ascertain whether the
city will be permitted, under section
73 of the Charter, to take over these
lines in case they should become bank
>rupt. The corporation counsel said, on
this point:
"If it happens that any of the COM
panies become bankrupt the city wants
all the facts, SO that, in January, we
can go to the Legislature and get some
enabling legislation, along the lines Of
the Democratic platform regarding
municipal ownership"
The principal companies that will be
represented at the hearing to-day are
the lnterborough Rapid Transit, the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit and the New
York Railways Company.
fight against the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company's effort to increase
traction fares is planned by local union
leaders, according to statement made
yesterday by John P. Coughlin, presi-

Union.
Mr. Coughlin said that the com.
pany's present income is sufficient te
justify the wage increase which the
men are demanding. A movement will

Argentina Solidly
Supports War, Says
"La Nacion" Editor
Jorge A. Mitre Emphasizes
That Fate of Small Ma
tions Rests Upon Victory

The life or death of small nations
hinges on the outcome of the war, said
Jorge A. Mitre, editor of ola Nacion,"
Bucnos Ayres, at luncheon given in
his honor yesterday by the PanAmer
lean Society of the United States.
More than 15O men prominent in pro-
fessional, financial and journalistic
circles attended the luncheon. John
Bassett Moore and Mr.. Mitre were the
principal speakers. Frank A. Munsey,
publisher of "The New, York Sum-" pre-
sided.
Mr.. Mitre's newspaper was founded
by General Bartolome Mitre, the father
of nationalized Argentina, and for
more than half century the pubica-
tion has been recognized as one of
South Americas leading dailies.
IN the early days when my country
was struggling against tyranny for a
united and enlightened government" /"
said Mr.. Mitre, "she did not hesitate
to sacrifice her tranquility and her
wealth for her idealss. She acted, then,
with disintcrest, just as you are doing
now with your admirable and almost
sublime struggles against world des-
potism.
"You can see how our people cannot
be indifferent, at the present moment,
when we can cooperate in the work
a thousand times blcssed-which began
in the defence of small nation un-
justly violated, and which has devel-
oped until it has become a well-defined
struggle between despotism and democ-
racy between brute force and right.
"If the prevailing of right and JUS
tice is for you an altruistic inspira-
tion, to-day it is for us something
more. 1t is guarantee. How should
we be able in the future-the small ma
tlons-to develop our destinies, if those
who do not believe in the rule Of brute
force were not to triumph ?"
Mr.. Moore spoke of the birth and
development of Argentina and of Bar
tolome Mitre, the soldier-statesma
who was largely responsible for the
establishment of the nations present
government.

presiden. Wilson regarding the Thomas
J. Mooney case. In this letter and an
affidavit accompanying it Fickert
makes charges regarding the Mediation
Commission sent here by the President
to investigate, among other things, the
Mooney trial.
In the affidavit he charges that Felix
Frankfurter, secretary OF the commits

was guilty and had a fair trial, but
stated 1t was the desire of the Federal
Administration to placate not only the
radicals in Russia, but the radicals in
the United States as we'll"
The affidavit also said Frankfurter
stated the investigation then under way
was due solely to the fact that the
President of the United States had
been misled in relation to the Mooney
case by persons connected with the
Bolshevik government in Russia.
Mooney was convicted of murder as
q result Of the Preparedness Day bomb
explosion in San Francisco. July %,

War Board Urges
Public to Curtail
Its Use of Paper
Private as Well as Business
Supplies Must Be
Conserved

WASHINGTON, July 25.--A general
publicity campaign will be launched
by the War Industries Board shortly,
having for it's aim the education of
the public to the Importance of con-
servation of paper of all kinds as a
war measure. War conditions, it was
stated, demand a radical change in
the habits of consumers, and the War
Industries Board has asked the CO.
operation of the press in spreading
the conservation propaganda, as the
governments need of chemicals and
other materials makes it necessary to
prevent as much waste as possible.
Printers and publishers, stores, Of
fees, hotels, clubs and private homes
will be asked to cooperate to eliminate
all waste, and to return paper, rags
and other things of which paper is
made to the mills to be remade.
The War Industries Board issued a
statement. which says in part:
Paper has been so cheap and plenti-
full in the past that people little real
ized it's value. But war conditions
demand prompt and radical change
in the habits of consumers. and the
members of the pulp and paper section
are confident that when the consum-
ing public is shown the reason and
necessity for such change it will re-
spond to the appeal for conservation.
at is the intention of the paper
section, with the cooperation of the
daily press, to show how the demands
of the government for various kinds
of paper and various chemicals and
other materials used in paper making
are increasing rapidly, and how every
pound of paper wasted represents not
only the waste of valuable materials
such as coal, pulp, chemicals, etc, but
also the waste of productive labor
working capital and transportation
space, in all Of which there is al
Increasing scarcity'
