Against these six divisions the plan

that the cavalry could be sent through

behind the retiring Turks, capturing
at a blow the equivalent to two divi-
sions, with the artillery and nearly All
the wheeled transport OF the TURKISH
forces between the Jordan and the
sea. Unfortunately, the pursuit did
not manage to get to Nablus in time
to destroy the whole Turkish army
west of the Jordan. Had Nablus been
reached in the first thirty-six hours not
a man or q gun would have escaped,

The pursuit was held up in the Val

Nablus for at least three days, and ap-

take place up the main road from Je.
rusalem and then on northeastward
by the road which passes the Jordan
and fords that river. 1t Is true that
such a retirement can only take place
with the utmost disorganiZation, and

] the Jordan valley will be for the most
part impossible. But half or more
than half of the men may be able to
get away by this gate, which remained
open to the enemy. There was mo

in the past a school which really be-

war could be won by turning the
Central empires by the east. 1t was
an error and productive OF disastrous
results. But the present situation is
not that at all. The troops operating

neighboring countries, and largely re-

WILSON MOVES TO

ALL FOREIGN TRADE OF U. SEX.
PORTS AND IMPoRTs-PUT
UNDER BAN.
BOATS NEEPED FOR WAR WORK
Part of General Plan of Allies to Rush
Troops and Supplies to Europe Put
In Effect-Publie Must Curtall Use
Of Imports.

/ Washington, Feb. 16-All foreign
trade of the United States-exports
and imports-was put under license
today by President Wilson as part
of general plan of the. American and
allied governments for furnishing
ships to transport troops and supplies
to Europe,
The less essential exports and i'm
ports will be reduced TO d minimum
and materials regarded as necessary
will be transported by the shortest
hauls possible. The allies are work
ing in close cooperation with the
United States and the trade routes of
the world in many instances will be
shifted to bring the most economic
operation of tonnage.
Trade to Be Cut Again.
The allies already have cut their
foreign trade sharply, but will make
further reductions as a part of the
general plan. American representa-
tives sitting in London will work with
allied Representatives in eliminating
and re-arranging ocean commerce to
free ships for war service.
Licensing of American exports and
imports will be handled by the war
trade board which has created spe-
cial contraband committee with final
powers in deciding the country's for
eign trade policies. The board, which
already issues licenses for the large
number of commodities over which
the government has exercised export
and import control will work with the
state department, the department of
comemrce and the shipping board in
arranging trade routes
Name Controlled Ships.
The shipping board has formed a
special division under Dean e. F.
Gay, Harvard university, to prepare
statistical data on shipping and COM
merce. To bring about proper CO.
ordination between the shipping
board and the war trade board 1t Us
likely that controller Of ships and
cargoes will be named to see that
ships are used in the most economic
manner.
There will be no hasty decisions, 1t
was said last night, in determining
what exports and imports are to be
eliminated. Trades interested will be
given hearings and the plan is to put
IT. fofn offnof &c n n llU
as possible in view of imperative neeo
of diverting vessels to the war zone
American ships taken out of the
non-hazardous trades and put into
transatlantic service will be. replac-
ed, where it can be done, by neutral
tonnage, for which the government
now is negotiating. This tonnage will
not fill the need entirely, however,
and licenses for goods regarded as
non.essential will not be granted.
Control NeutraIs.
Control of exports and imports and
of bunker coal by the United States
and the allies gives them control
of neutral tonnage and officials pre-
dict that virtually all the ocean-go-
ing ships owned by the neutrals will
be in the American and allied serv-
ices before many months.
Officials declined to speculate last
night on the changes in routing Of
Americas foreign commerce likely to
grow out of measures to be put into
force.
