America Sending Food,
Not Troops, Says Berlin

AMSTERDAM. Jan. 13.-Thc semi
official "Norddcutschc Algemeinc Zcit
ing Of Berlin. publishes a report
from Washington that the United
States is sending 9O,0OO,000 bushels of
wheat to Europe, and adds:
"This is a heavy blow to the Entente
cause. Sholn of rhetoric hourshes, it
means that America has decided not to
appear on the European battlefield for
an indefinite time. What moved Presi-
dent Wilson to this change Of front,
which is the most important develop
ment in American war policy?"
The newspaper attributes it partly to
The achievements of the German sub
marines, partly to internal causes, and
especially to growing pacifism and fric-
ton with Japan. it continues:
"Ihc last hope Of the Entente has
gone. 1t will inevitably cause deep de-
preston in France. whose bread ration
may be increased slightly, but for
whose war weary troops there is now
no hope Of relief"

"An incident Of the voyage" is the

Lieutenant Charlton ntimatcd that
there had been 'mix-ups" with a
