EXPECTS RUSS TO SPRING
AT GERMAN THROATS

AMSTERDAM, Juno 21.-The Rhein-
ische Westfaelische Zeitung of Essen
says that Herr Hoefer, Independent
socialist in the Prussian lower house,
Thursday declared:
Ten thousand red guards were
merciless moved down at Taganrog
by German troops, and then you say
we are at peace with Russia! I am
persuaded that Russia will spring at
our throats when the time comes. 1t
is base to kill an enemy after he Is
blinded by poison gas. The people
must overthrow a government which
is incapable of attaining a speedy
peace by understanding"

CUBAN SUGAR PRICE RAISED.

NEW YORK. June 22.-Activfties of
German submarines in the ocean lane
traversed by sugar-laden ships be-
tween Cuba and United States ports
have SO increased marine insurance
that the international sugar commit
tee has announced an increase In the
price of imported raw sugar here.
Effective at the opening Of bust
ness June a." says the announcement
to the trade, "the basic price upon
which refiners' selling margin must
be based will be 6.055 cents per pound
delivered, duty paid. for e6 centrifu-
gal sugar, New York. Such basic
price will be continued until further
notice.
.sThis change of the basic price is
occasioned by increased cost Of war
risk insurance on imported sugar.
This means that the refiners' selling
price will be rs cents per pound,
less per cent usual terms. AS this
results in an increase in the cost of
raw sugar. 1t does not mean an in
crease in the margin of the refinsr."
Members Of the commission said the
increase was too small to be felt by.
the consumer. Only Cuban sugar is
affected.

Mr.. Colby's Demand for
Sh1pbuiIders' Beverage
Supply Arouses Critics

Exceptions to the opinion expressed
by cambridge Colby of the shipping
board before the Senate committee on
agriculture Wednesday that approval
Of the Jones amendment, providing
wartime prohibition, would result in
q slackening up of work on the ship
building program, were taken by
Bishop James Cannon. jr.: William
Jennings Bryan. Miss Anna A. Cor
don, president Of the National w. C..
T. u. and others at a meeting of the
Anti-Saloon League Of America Thurs
day night
The keynote Of the exceptions was
the absolute necessity for conserva-
ton on the part Of all the people of
the country and that manufacturers
Of alcoholic beverages are burning
fuel and using commodities which
would help relieve conditions. The
spirit Of patriotism. the speakers said,
is causing the sacrifice Of the man
hood Of the country and there Is no
reason why distilleries and breweries
should be allowed to run under those
eondttionh,
The views Of Gen. Pershing. com.

ditionary ferces, on the relation of alco-
hoi to the efficiency Of the human ma
chine. as given personally to Bishop
Cannon during a recent visit Of the lat
ter to France, have been offered by the
bishop to the Senate committee, to be
considered in connection with the opin-
ion expressed by Mr.. Colby relative to
the relation Of alcohol to such efficiency
Gen. Pershings views. as given by
Bishop Cannon, are:
From the military point Of view, we
cannot tolerate alcohol among our SOL
diers. War is merciless; men must be
competent The drinking man makes a
bad soldier, no matter how much Ger
many may believe in feeding her men up
on alcohol in order to screw their fight
Ing courage to the sticking point. The
Army won't stand alcohol because II
must conserve its man power"

Have Not Weakened.

The fact that the committee deter
mined to have further hearings on the
Jones amendment was interpreted in
some quarters as meaning the prohi-
bition members Of the committee had
weakened. This, it was said today, is
just the reverse of the facts in the
matter. 1t was determined to have
further hearings in order to show
|conclusively that the statement of
|Bainbridge Colby of the shipping
board to the effect that nationwide
prohibition would mean a reduction
in the output of new ships by 25 per
cent was entirely erroneous.
The hearings which were planned
for today have been postponed be-
cause Chairman Hurley of the ship
ping board, Charles NJ. Schwab and
Mr.. Colby would not be able to ap-
pear. The hearings will begin on

board officials. the committee plans to
