Obligation Rests on Them to See That There's Food
 for Home and Abroad
|RATIONING IS NOT
 FAIR TO ALL PEOPLE
Food Administrators Wife Points Out lnfairneSS of Strict RatiOning Rule, and Says Germany'> Rich
 Feast While Poor Starye

Hot Springs, May 2.-Alrs. Herbert C. Hoover. wife of the food admins trator, today addressed the General Federation of Women's Clubs. She told the women of America that they must be ever mindful of ;he obliga. tions before them. three points of which were most mportant--there must always be enough food in the home storehouse; there must be food across the sea to fight the enemy and keep him off home soil. and there must be enough food to supply the sol diers of the other nations who arc fighting with our boys and whose blood will be mingled with the blooo of those of our boys who dent come back
 In response to an iEterrogatory ar to why food rationing had not Dev:: adCpted here, Mrs. Hoover said that 1t was too unfair to apply a strict rule She said that the rule that applied to tne wellto-do women, whose range for SuDSlltuleS Is uOl IeStIlCtGu .DS tue purse, would be unfair to the woman who strived 10 make her E;tle wage go to rent and to food.
 Mrs. Hoover said she did not be lieve it would be fair to apply the same rations to the mining men of the interior and to citizens perhaps on the coast who had plenty 0. fish, or to the citizens of the dairy sections who had plenty of milk and butter. She declared that the ood rationing in Germany was failure and that the rich in Germany were still we'll fed. And for a better reason than all, she said: "In Germany they drive their people: in America they lead their people"
 Professor Erb of the Johns Hopkins university deplored the fact that dairy products were not used so much as formerly because of the advanced prices. and said the women should help restore the use of milk, other wise the daires would sooa be turn ed over to beef cattle sales and this direful result could not be corrected in years.

 BRINGS BIG RESULTS
Thousands Follow President in Buy. ing Another S58 Bond: st, Louis First Big City to Go
 Over Top.

Washington, May 2.-Only $249,- 900 ,000 remains to be subscribed to i the Third Liberty loan to meet the 1 S3 3,000, 100000 minimum goal and headquarters statement tonight said the prospect for an prescription are considered hopeful.
 The total reported tonight was $2, 751 ,360 TOO, which did not include sub- scriptions obtaned today. It was an addition of 72,000,000 in the last PA hours.
 The multitude of small subscriptions pouring into local headouarters today stimulated by the appeals to "buy an
 other bond" and match the president"
 created genuine enthusiasm among treasury officials who considered the
 moral effect of the big subscription roll as much as the huge poll of national credit.
 President Starts New Campaign. The movement to get individuals to buy $50 bonds to keep pace with Pres ident Wilson, who subscribed fer a baby bond after already buying all he felt able to pay for, grew beyond bounds planned by the onglnators ot feature, and telegrams received to- day characterized it as the distinctive
 campaign of the Third loan.' A telegram from the Atlanta dis trict tonight said that more than $900,- 900 had been raised in one rally there
 and that the city surely would sub scribe it's quota.
 St. Louis Goes Over Top.
 Chattanooga has oversubscribed by $1 100000 and Mobile has reached 100
 per cent. St. Louis is the first city of mcre than 5O0,00O population by the 1910 census, to subscribe it's full quota Only five counties in the St. Louis Federal reserve district have failed to attain their quotas up to
 today; two in Missouri. two in Ar kansas and one in Tennessee.

GREENBERG CASE, is
DISMISSED TODAY
u,
David Proves That He Was Not Pro-
prietor of Alleged Nom H.
Licensed Store

Judgment was suspended in the
case being brought against David
Greenberg, charged with conducting
a clothing store on Main street with
issued by the city or state to conduct
such an enterprise. Greenberg was
found to be only connected with the
enterprise in SO far as he had ad-
Vanced the money for the purpose Of
the goods while his uncle, Jacob
Greenberg was the principal in the
business. David Greenberg remained
in the store, which was opened in
Dawsons block last week during the
day, to check the sales and guaran-
tee the return of the money which he
had loaned his uncle. 1t is probable
that similar charges will be brought
against Jacob Greenberg
The store was opened last week and
the entire front has been placarded
advertising the sale of $4,000 worth
of merchandise. The goods were
bought a few weeks ago from a firm
in Springfield and taken to this city
by Jacob Greenberg. Attorney P. f.
McDonough appeared for Greenberg
and argued that his client was neither
principal nor egent but was connect
ed with the business only through
The money which he had advanced,
and that charges could not be brought
against him on those charges. The
evidence pres entod proved that he
had no connections with the business
itself, and judgment was suspended.

FORMER KAISER CAN'T

OF ENGLISH OFFICIAL

London, Dec. II. (By Mail. Or
binary principles of extraction in no
wise apply to William Hohenzollern,

sExtrqditton,s Mayceck points out,

Tfese Quest oIlS are: ~5E45
I'm What state has the kaiser him
self Individually been guilty of an ex-
tradition crime? H. Z g.. X
Does his existing status render
him immune from the process OF the
municipal law of the Netherlands?
Practically all extradition
treaties writes Maycock, '.open

TT will be tolerably obvious to
anyone who takes the trouble to per-
use our own extradition treaty of
1913 with the Netherlands that the
kaiser has not individually perpet-
rated any Of the offenses in this
country which would warrant our
demanding his extradition from the
Dutch o. .f.
1.-THE, same difficulty presumably
would be experienced by all the
allied countries.
Whether Germany could demand
the kaiser's extradition, even If she
were disposed to do SO, Is another
matter" ..g
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1918-12-30

If abdication has been accomp.
lished formally, Maycock declares
William Hohenzollern then becomes
merely a private individual visiting
in Holland. However, even If this
is the case, there is nothing in Dutch
law to prevent the Netherlands from
according Count William all the
rights of sovereign.
Suppose they do" says Maycock
1t may then be asked in what dc
such privileges consist" FL & a..
On this point Maycock quotes a
recognized work on international law
written by w. e. Hall, which states
that a sovereign cannot. be proceed
ed against either in ordinary Grim
inal tribunals"
Maycock concludes that unless
the kaiser has formally abdicated II
would be up to him to claim in Hol-
land the immunity enjoyed by SOW
ereigns in a foreign state" . ...
