$40 additional men.

the allies with food enough each year
~ support 16,314,552 persons. and
with an excess of both protein and
fats sufficient for several millions
more.
The total exports OF wheat and
wheat -four to the three principal
allies, Russia getting but very small
per cent OF the whole, were equivalent
to about 3S4,0OO,0OO bushels, or an
average of about lie, O00, 900 bushels
a year. or this total amount the
United Kingdom got 145.34S,000 bu-
shells of wheat and S,512,OOO barrels
of wheatfour; France got 79,79S,OOO
bushels of wheat and 5.462.000 bar

BRITISH and laps
At VLADIVOSTOK
Bolsheviki Will Likely
Make Protest To
Uncle Sam.

Washington, Aprnl s.--The land
ing Of japanese and British forces at
Nladivostok and the Bolsheviki OBJ
lection to the move promise to cause
the State Department some concern.
When Japanese occupation Of Siberia
was proposed recently, this Govern
ment assumed hands of" policy
and the Russian National Council of
SOviots has announced its purpose
to protest to the United States against
the present step.
Americas attitude drew express
siOns of satisfaction from the Russian
official press. but developments in
Vladivostok have changed the situa-
ton In the past the United States
often has asserted its right to land
naval forces to overcome conditions
OF anarchy existing at some foreign
port where American lives and prop
erty were involved. In Vera Cruz
large military forces were used for
THIS purpose without violating the
general principle of international law.
Assuming that the American Con
sul's report that japanese citizens
were killed and wounded at Vladi-
vOstok by unrestrained Russians is
supplemented by evidence that the
local Bolsheviki officials either are
powerless or unwilling to punish the
guilty parties and afford adequate
protection to foreign life and prop
erty. officials here feel that they
cannot withhold full approval of the
action OF the japanese and British.
The fact that the British followed
the action of the Japanese gives an
international aspect to the incident
which also tends to deprive it of any
appearance OF simple act of Jap
anese aggression.
Difficulties are anticipated by Off
Gals in communicating a sound and
sane explanation of the attitude of
this Government to the Bolsheviki
authorities in Moscow II is expected
that there will be some communica-
ton from the japanese and British
Governments to the State Depart
ment here of the purpose of the ma
val commanders. and officials hope
they will allay the Bolshevik ap-
prehensions that military invasion
of Siberia by Japan and Great Brit
aip mas been started.

Constipation and Indigestion

These are twin evils. Persons suf-
fering from indigestion are often
troubled with constipation. Mrs.
Robert Allison, Nation, lll.,writes
that when she first moved TO Nation
she was great sufferer from indi-
gestion and constipation. Food dis
tressed her and there was feeling
like heavy weight pressing on her
stomach and chest. She did not rest
we'll at night, and felt worn out a
good part of the time. One bottle Of
Cham berlain' Tablets corrected this
trouble so that she has felt like a
different person. m

SPAIN WILL UTILIZE
 HUN SHIPS IN PORT
WILL SUBSTITUTE GERMAN SHIPS FOR ALL SPANISH
 ONES SUNK.

Madrid.-Spain will utilize German vessels now in Spanish ports in place of Spanish ships sunk by German submarines and will continue to ob- serve neutrality.
 This decision is announced in an official statement issued after a meet ing of the cabinet at San Sebastian The Spanish ambassador at Berlin has been instructed to inform the German government of this action. The cabinet statement reads:
 Tn the course of the recent meet ings held at Madrid the government considered the international situation
 As consequence of the subma- rine campaign more than 20 per cent oI our merchant marine has been sunk, more than 100 Spanish sailors have perished, a considerable number of sailors have been wounded and numbers have been shipwrecked and abandoned. Ships needed exclusive ly for Spanish use have been torpe- doed without the slightest pretext, serious difficulties resulting to navi- gation.
 'The government has believed that it is unable, without failing in its es- sential obligations and without set ting aside neutrality, to defer the adoption of measuress necessary to guarantee Spanish maritime traffic and to protect Spanish crews and passengers.
 Consequently the government has decided to address the imperial Ger man government and declare that ow- ing to reduction of tonnage to it's ex- treme limit, it will be obliged in case of new sinkings to substitute there for German vessels interned in Span ish ports. This measure does not iln- ply the confiscation of the ships un- der definite title. It would be only a temporary solution until the establish ment of peace, when Spanish claims also will be liqudated.
 Our ambassador at Berlin has re- ceived instructions to bring this de- cision to the notice of the German government The Spanish government does not doubt that the German gov ernment will appreciate the circum- stances determining this resolution and will recognize that Spain, in holding to the neutrality she has prac- ticed since the beginning of the war. has sacrificed many of her rights and legitimate conyeniences when 1t Las been possible without affecting the dignity of Spain and her national life
 The decision of the government 10 assure for itself sufficient tonnage, ence, does not affect the firm resolve to maintain strict neutrality

GERMANS LEAVING
 TIE LYS SALIENT
MARSHAL HAlG'S FORCES CON- TiNUE TO ADVANCE IN THE
 MELVILLE SECTOR.

With the British Army in France.- Field Marshal Haig's s forces continued to advance throughout the day in the Merville sector of the Lys salient. They are closely following the retiT ing Germans, who seem to have gone back to an extreme depth of between three and four miles and are still showing no inclination to come to a halt Especially to the south of this sector, the Germans have left behind them numerous lines of retardins wire entanglements.
 British, in their advance near Vieux- Berquin, gained all their ob- jectives. The enemy troops now failing back belong to the Sixth Ger man army, commanded by General von Quasi.
 British patrols have maintained I steady pressure on the retiring Ge-- mans and have inflicted considerable casualties. The enemy manifestly continues to be ln nervous state.
 Field Marshal Haig has sent tele- gram of cor gratulations to General Rawlinson, commander of the Fourth British army, reading as followo.
 'Warmest congratulations anu thanks to Yourself and staff and all ranks on the magnificent success re- gently gained by the Fourth army. The brilliant manner in which the op- erauon was prepared and successful ly carried out at comparatively small loss by the Third Australian and Canadian corps, in conjunction with the cavalry, air force and tank corps, is a striking tribute to the skill of the leaders and the bravery of the individual soldiers, as well as to the high state of efficiency of the staffS and department services concerned. The gallant and skillful cooperation of the armored cars and motor ma chine gun batteries is worthy of tue highest praise"
 By withdrawing their forces in the Merrille sector of the Lys salient, the Germans definitely have given up one of the points from which drive for Calais logically would be launch ed. This is taken to indicate that the German high command has, at least for the time being, abandoned hope of reaching the coast and now, per haps. is chiefly concerned with get ting the German lines back to place of greater security.
 The withdrawal here has been ez- peCted for some time and it continued last night and today even on slight ly broader front than that of yester- day.

OTHERWISE STATE MAY LOSE IT TO TEXAS, SAYS WASHING
 TON LAWYER.
ATTORNEY GENERAL NOTIFIED
Arkansas Bounded On South Side By Red River By Parallel 100 West Longitude, Greenwich, ana 33rd
 Parallel North Latitude.
Little Rock


 Walter Holland, an attorney, of Washington notified Attorney-Geperal Arbuckle that unless Arkansas brings suit to determine it's southwest boun- diary the state will likely lose Miller County to Texas. This is the county fin wh+- Texarkana is situated
 MT r1ouand stated that he had just had conference with Senator w. r. KJrby and that the status of the Boundary question was as follows:
 Arkansas is bounded on the south side by the Red River by parallel 1G0 west longitude, Greenwich, and by the sad parallel north latitude to the northwest corner of Louisiana. This line Vas agreed upon by the boundary commission at the time of the anneXa- Gion of Texas and since has been ac- cepted as the true line.
 Ar. Hollands conclusion is that Arkansas will have to claim the terri tory included within the parallels or eventually lose Miller County, as the true line goes either east or west from the 33d degree of latitude and can not stand, as now considered, 10 :. he due north from that parallel.
