The Republican County Committee meets this afternoon at o'clock. for organization, at Knights of Pythias hall. 21 East Washington street.

 A platform committee is to report. and it is not improbable that several names will be added to the county ticket during the afternoon.

War Trade Board Finds
German Submarines
Directed at NeutraIs.

Germany'S war leaders are using the
submarine to prevent fulfillment OF
Americas agreements to feed and re-
lieve European neutrals, according to
statement by the war trade board
1t says:
"A mass of cumulative evidence and
indications in the possession of the
war trade board shows that Germany
is employing the submarine menace to
prevent neighbor neutrals receiving
any food or favors at the hands Of the
United States and it's associates in the
war, and to coerce these neutrals
economic dependence upon Germany,
quite as much as to strike at the COM
munications of its opponents-Ger-
many's ostensible aim in preclaiming
the ruthless submarine campaign.
Further indications tend to show
that the submarines are being used
along similar dog IN the manager lines,
to destroy neutral shipping without
regard to it's employment"

TRANSACTIONS Of editorial comment
in the German press, made public by

include the following from the Berliner
Tageblatt:
"The terms of the ultimatum to Rus

be interesting to hear Hertling, who
accepted Wilson's second principle
that people are not to be bartered
about from sovereign to sovereign, to
explain just what differences exist
between the political methods of the
past and those of today. 1t may be
conceded that today the German
reichstag is informed of coming
changes, but not until the matter has
been settled without it. We all hope
this policy will bring peace and pros
perity, but we can not conceal our
anxiety at the birth of these new
states"

Vast Amount Of Food
Goes to Allied Countries
From United States.

Statistics compiled by the food ad-
ministration show that the grand to-
tai of all food exported to the four al
lies-the United Kingdom, France,
Italy and Russia-from July l, 1914,
to January 1, 1918, would furnish COM
plete yearly rations for 57,100,933 adult
persons, with a surplus of protein
capable of supplying this portion of
the diet for 22,194,57O additional men.
Since the beginning of the war the
United States has averaged to sup
ply the allies with food enough each
year to support 16,S14552 persons, and
with an excess Of both protein and
fats sufficient for several millions
more.
The total exports of wheat and
wheat flour to the three principal al
lies, Russia getting but very small
per cent of the whole, were equivalent
to about 3S4,OO0,000 bushels, or an av-
erage of about 100000 bushels q
year. OF this total amount the Unit
ed Kingdom got 145,34S,O0O bushels OF
wheat and $4,000 barrels Of wheat
flour; France got 79,79S,OOO bushels OF
wheat and 5,462,OO0 barrels Of wheat
flour; Italy S7,136,OOO bushels Of wheat
and 1,S95,OO0 barrels of wheat flour
Russia received only 100000 bushels OF
wheat and $4,000 barrels Of wheat
flour.
The total exports of pork products
were nearly 2,OO00OO,OO0 pounds,
yearly average of about 57O,O00,OO(
pounds. The total sugar exports were
over 2269, 900, 900 pounds, a yearly av'
erage Of about 64S,O00,00O. OF corr

Only 8.18 Per Cent
of Men Called
Fail to Appear.

OF the 3.OS2,s4s persons called under
the selective service act, 252,294, or
SIS per cent, failed to appear for ex-
animation, according to statement
issued by the Provost Marshal Cen
eral. This number, however, included
men who had previously enlisted or
been commissioned and had failed to
notify their boards, some who had died
and many who were transferred to
other boards but by mistake had been
carried on the books of their local
boards-estimated at 100000.
Many of the remaining 100000 were
aliens, a number of whom left the
country to enlist in their own armies.
The statement estimates the NUM-
Der Of real slackers at not more than
$4,000 or an average of less than 10
for each board.

PLATINUM FROM RUSSIA
HOW It WAS DELIVERED
HOW PRECIOUS METAL WAS
TRANSFERRED ACROSS ST.
IBERIA TO UNCLE SAM.

(By F. w. Draper, published by the
Mining and Metallurgical Society in
Bulletin No. 116).
During the time just before the
United States entered this war, when
we who were abroad had got rather
tired of making excuses as to why
America didn't go in, we felt so sure
that she would that Lieutenant Shines,
a fellow mining engineer in Rus
STA, determined that he was going to
collect as much platinum as he could,
because he was certain that it was 60
ing to be required in America one OF
these days. He also knew-as we all
knew--that German agents were OBJ
tanning much platinum from Russia
and were putting 1t to use to which
we were conscientious DIRECTORS. Lieu
tenant Shines Mapped to be connected
with large banking interests in Petro-
grad which were able to finance this
undertaking, and they said: well, &c
ahead and collect all the platinum vol
can"
A good deal of platinum had to b.
collected in small lots, as well as il
competition with the German agents
and there was more or less difficult!
and some danger attached to that, blu
an amount was collected and deposit
ed in Petrograd, worth about 2,100,

amount that l had chained to m,
wrist let me say that when it wa
boxed and ready for shipment |
weighed 1865 pounds.
Well, when we had this platinum Il
Petrograd, the question came up O
getting 1t over here. Lieutenan
Shines approached the American Elk
press company, which had recent
appointed an agent in Russia, an
suggested that 1t undertake to delive
this platinum in America. That wa
a little more than the agent wanted I

so he telegraphed to New York an
