BREAK WITH u. 5,
URGED IN HOLLAND
Seizure Of Ships Causes Out
burst OF Anger.

Amsterdam, March pa despatch
from The Hague to the Handelsblad
says one of the most prominent mem
bers of Parliament intends to psk the
government whether it is not time to
recall the Dutch minister at Wash
ington and hand passports to the
American minister at The Hague.
The text of President Wilson's proc
lamation regarding Dutch Shipping
reached Holland after the newspapers
had gone to press. Meanwhile some
what bluntly worded despatch from
Washington speaking of the seizure
of the ships after the war trade board
had been informed Holland has re-
jected the American ultim2tGm" caus-
ed an outburst of puzzled anger from
virtually the whole Dutch press.
1t is argued there has been no re-
lection by Holland Of an uitimatum
and previously nothing has been
heard of any ultimatum T feel
ings of the Dutch to all ppeErances
are badly hurt.
Commenting upon President VIII
sons proclamation regarding Dutch
shipping, the Alge.leen Handelsblad
says it considers there now devolves
upon the allied powers the moral duty
Of maintaining international traffic for
states which cannot exist with ut it.
Continued refusal to permit Holland
to obtain grain from Argentina, it
says, would be serious matter for
both parties.

London. March 23.-SiNteen thou.
sand prisonlrs and 200 guns have been
captured by the Germans. according
TO a German off cial communication
received by wireless. II says:
The successes of Thursday in the
fig. ting between Arras and La Fere
were extended in the continuation OF
our attack.
"SiXteea thousand prisoners and 200
guns so far have been reported cap
tured. Before Verdun the artillery
duel continued"
These losses in the great German
offensive, in which forty divisions or
about 100000 men are attacking, have
not been conceded by the British.
The British are holding their lines on
the fifty mile battle front extending
from Arras to La Fere in France, it IS
announced officially.
Desperate fighting continues. The
tremendous artillery action, said to
be the greatest in the war, is Earring
southern England and Holland.
General Haig's reportr Of the action
follows:
"Fighting continued until a late
hour on the whole front between the
river Disc and the river Sensee. Gu?
troops continue to hold the enemy in
their battle positions.
During the enemy's attacks Thurs
day his massed infantry offered re-
markable targets to our rifles, ma
chine guns and artillery, of which full
ADVANTAGE was taken by our troops.
All the reports testify to the exceed
insly heavy losses suffered by the en-
envy. Heavy fighting is still TO be
expected"
Later reports from correspondents
at tht front told of renewed fighting.
The enemy has not reached one OF
his detectives which, according to
captured map. included Hermies,
Achiet-le- Petit and Boiry S.. Martin.
Boiry-St. Martin is seven miles due
south of Arras. Achiet-le-Petit is
twelve miles south of Arras and five
miles northwest of Bapaume. Her
mics is about te nmilse southwest Of
Cambria.
British counter attacks with tanks
threw the Germans out of Doignles,
which the British still occupy. No
tanks have been used by the German
in the present battle.
The German artillery is operating in
the open under the densest camou-
f1age German prisoners declare that
their batteries suffered greatly.

NIGHT DELIVERIES OF COAL
IN BUSINESS DISTRICT URGED
Trade journal Suggests More Modern
Method to Eliminate Traffic


The motor truck is revolutionizinc
the coal-distrbuting business. and the
enlarged Investment demanded by mod
crn delivery equipment calls for it's
more intensified use; hence the Amer
lean Coal Journals suggestion that
night deliveries OF coal in the congested
districts OF Chicago and other large
cities he inauguratcd. The advantages
of traffic from streets and alleys and
the absence OF interfering foot traffic
in many instances is at once recognized
as an advantage OF prime Importance,
and the increased service obtained from
truckS-thcy being forced to yield
double results IL matter that spells
both efficiency and economy.
IT'S Il splendid idea" said Captain
John Martin. chief of the traffic division
of the Chicago police department, to an
American Coal journal representative.
Might deliveries OF coal will mate
rally help the department solve the
evcr-Growing traffic problem of this
city, and what is true OF Chicago Is
true OF all other metropolitan cities.
We OF the traffic division welcome the
movement YOU have under considera-
ton. and You can rely upon our full
est cooperation and encouragement in
bringing about the innovation. II Is
progressive step. and we hre with you
in the action YOU have in mind. The
coal trade of Chicago is to he cornpli-
mentcd on the spirit the suggestion en-
bodies. and it might well be cmulated
by other industries
1t goes without saying that idle
trucks earn nothing for the coal man,
and when trucks arc idle half the time
or during the night. they represent just
that much waste. This fact was pointed
out to one OF the retail coal association
officials who readily agreed TO the prop
csition. The increased cost of operating
a truck when frequent stoppinss and
startinSs occur. due 10 the Instructions
of day traffic, is avoided in night de-
liHc:!cS. This decreased cost, It Is
urged. may be partially ncutralized by
overtime labor cost, but this is not
likely TO be the case when the system
OF night deliveries is firmly established,
because night workers in most of the
industries receive no higher pay than
the day workers. Sometimes the pay Is
less. While this official did not care TO
he quoted. he favored an exhaustive
discussion of the proposal and thought
that something of advantage 10 the. in
dustry could he worked out.

WHY NOT PAY CASH:
 CARRY YOUR PARCELS
Recommendation to Women of Pine Bluff by Woman's Council of De-
 Tense of Vaugine Township.

In charging an article one forces a clerk to make out slip and file the transaction. A bookkeeper is forced to enter the account on his book. He is forced to make out and send bill. The management has to send col lector to the debtor or to use for their convenience stamp, sheet of paper and an envelope. When the bill is paid an already busy clerk must stop, rt- ceipt the bill, open ledger and mark the account paid.
 Should one pay with a check, the merchant, after marking account paid is forced to deposit it. The teller of the bank must list it. Thee bookkeep- CT also must list it and withdraw the amount from the customers account, then some bank must file the check. Later some clerk must return the check to the customer, with others, when the account is balanced.
 All of this trouble, possibly over the purchase of pair of hose which should have been paid for and carried home in the shopping bag
 Supposing the bill is not paid promptly upon delivery, the time lost by the merchant in sending repeated bills, often costs so much that he not only loses his profit but the entire amount. And yet would one not be offended if refused credit?
