The fact that the mayor did so officially
involves the borough in the present

Ban On High Shoes Lifted

London, June 1.-THE ban on the
sale of women's high-legged boots has
been removed. Dealers are to be per-
mitted to dispose of the stocks on
hand during the months of June and
July.
The order prohibiting the manufac-
ture of women's boots with tops high
er than seven inches was due to the
demands o. the military authorities
for leather.
The trade was allowed q certain
period to clear their stocks, but the
time limit proved insufficient. AS a
concession these goods are now al
lowed to be placed on sale.
Boot dealers complain that the Sc
lection of the two midsummer months
for the disposal OF these goods is
foolish. They point out that at mid,
summer women are accustomed to
wear low shoes and silk stockings and
claim that the period granted shoulc
have been fixed during the winter
months.

Venezuelan Denial
ss.s.- ....es .ala.. -
Charges of Editor Buslamanti Refuted
By Minister.

Characterizing the war attitude o.
! his government coward the United
States and entente as that of sympa
thetic neutrality, Dr.. Santos A. Domi
nici, Venezuelan minister to the Unit
ed States, denounced as the work 0.
revolutionary plotters in the republic
charges that the Venezuelan govern
,nent is pro-German and that U-boa
bases exist on the Venezuelan coast.
The minister states that he has NJ
information in regard to Dr.. Carlo!
Lopez Buslamanti, Caracas news
paper publisher. who announced on his
arrival in New York that he had pap
ers to prove Venezuela is tolerating
PROF. German activities.
He said that the editor evidently i
one of more than dozen whose news
papers have been censored or sup
pressed for expressions against Vene-
zuelan neutrality. The minister said
that although the Venezuelan people
and the officials as individuals are
sympathetic toward the United States
and the allies, the government finds
it necessary to aihere to strict neu-
trality as Germany has committed
no act against Venezuela that would
be considered unfriendly under inter-
national law
Dir. Dominica is inclined to believe
that the alleged false reports are in
spired by those who desire to over
throw the existing government, but
fear to DO so as the result Of Presi-
dent Wilson's Mobile address. The
minister declared the suppression Of
the Daily News at Caracas several
months ago for uncomplimentary edi-
torials in regard to President Wilson
was indicative OF the friendship CT the
republic toward the United States in
its neutrality.
He recalled that the Venezuelan oil
fields are under British and Ameri-
can control and could not possibly
supply submarines.
In regard to the proposed pan-
American pact, DR.. Dominica asserted
that his government had expressed
much interest in the movement when
it was suggested by President Wilson
and that there was little doubt of the
desire OF Venezuela to join in the rati-
fication Of the Monroe Doctrine.
