Former Crown Prince
Interned in Holland,
Washington Learns

Washington, Nov. 14.-Official
information reached the State de-
pattment today through neutral
sources that the former German
crown prince has arrived in Hol-
land and has been interned.
These advices, which are regard
ed as definitely disposing of re-
ports that the former crown prince
had been killed, also said the for
mer empress was expected shortly
to join her husband and son in Hol-
land.
London, Nov. 14.-The former
German crown prince has not been
shot but is staying at the residence

their troops. 1t is evident that the
allies must remain prepared for
possible hostile action on the part
Of certain elements of the enemy's
forces. Revolutionary councils have
been set up which may refuse to ac-
quiesce in the terms of the armis-
tice, and the mere fact that the ar
mistice can be terminated by either
side at 48 hours notice necessitates
the allies being fully prepared for all
eventualities.
Whatever happens, no organized
or effective resistance can, under
any circumstance, be offered by the
German army, but if the troops re-
fuse to acknowledge the authority
of their present commanders and
the army should disintegrate the
allied armies may still have much
work to do"

Rome, Nov. l4.-All Rome turned
out today to welcome Victor En-

been at the Italian battle front since

MINIMUM HOG PRICE
EXTENDED FOR DECEMBER.

Washington. Nov. l4.--The No
vember price basis of a minimum
of $3.50 for hogs will be continued
for the month of December under
an agreement reached today by the
food administration, a sub-commit-
tee of the agricultural advisory
board, hog raisers and packers.
The food administrator in an
nouncing continuation of the pres

sirable that the lighter weight hogs
be held back for the next 80 days.
If withheld at this time, it was said,
the possibility of breaking down

MILLION
RUSSIANS FACE
FOOD SHORTAGE
Have Little Chance Of Getting
Necessaries Of Life as
Long as BoIsheviki
Remain in Power.

Washington, Nov. 14.-Relief for
the suffering millions in bolshevik
controlled central Russia furnish a
problem which the allied and Ameri-
can governments have as yet been
unable to solve. In fact one official
said today that not even method
of solution had been determined
Upon.
1t is now regarded as practically
certain that it will be impossible to
get food to the 100000 people in
this territory this winter. With food
now scarce and anarchy rampant
officials fear that famine is inevita-
able and that the toll of death may
reach astounding figures.
Reds Stumbling Block +
In their efforts to find some way
to aid these people statesmen of the
associated governments are working
on the conviction that the bolsheviki
are not representative of the Russian
people. As long as the bolsheviki
remain in power, however, it is ad-
mitted that there is little probability
of getting even the very necessaries
of life to them.
The way to Russia is through
Germany, one official said today,
and until that way is opened there
is no chance of aiding Russia. AS
yet, however, the American and al
lied governments have not deter
mined upon the advisability of send
ing a military force into central Rus
sia even if the situation in Germany
becomes stable enough to permit
the passage of troops through that
country.
Conditions In Siberia.
1t also was said that no addition
to the allied and American forces
operating in Siberia and northern
Russia in conjunction with the loyal
Russians and Czecho-Slovak army
is at present contemplated.
Officials said that conditions in
Siberia and nothern Russia were
rapidly improving. while in Bessara-
bia and Ukrainia good order is be-
ing maintained. The Ukrainians are
said to have virtually cleared their
country of Germans, while Bessara-
bia, by a plebescite, has determined
to become part of the Roumanian
empire.

from them, the fruit eaters. OF the latter, the
largest species extant is the so-called "fying
