ENEMY RUTHLESS
AGAINST NEUTRALs.
GERMANY DEFlEs WHOLE WORLD
IN LATEST CAMPAIGN OF
U.BoAT WARFARE.
ALL SHIPS TO BE SENT DOWN
Food cargoes Supplied BY Allies to
Newfoundland Nations to Be
Sunk Whenever
Possible.

Washington, March 15.-Germany's
latest campaign of ruthlessness
against neutral shipping is attributed
by the War Trade board in a state
ment just issued to a deliberate plan
for cutting off the Nothern Europ-
can nations from American and AL
lied food supplies and thereby reduc-
ing them through starvation to po-
litical and economic dependence up
on the Teutonic war lords.
While the board makes no refer
ence to the determination of the Uni.
ted States and Great Britain, to take
over Dutch ships in American and Al
lied ports unless The Netherlands
government accepts pending eco
nomic agreement, its statement does
throw interesting light upon the situ-
alton which led to this decision.
Text of Statement.
The statement says in part:
"Germany's war leaders are using
the submarine war weapon to prevent
fulfillment of American agreements
to feed and relieve European neu-
trails. A mass Of cumulative evidence
and indications in the possession Of
the War Trade board show that Ger
many is employing the submarine
menace to prevent neighbor neutrals
receiving any food or favors at the
hands Of the United States and its
associate in the war and to coe1ce
these neutrals through starvation in
to political and economic dependence
upon Germany quite as much as to
strike at the. communications of its
opponents-Germany's ostensiblc aim
in proclaiming the ruthless submarine
campaign. aat
U-Boats Show Neutrals No Favor.
Further indications tend to show
that the submarines are being used
along similar dog-in-themanger lines,
to destroy neutral shipping without
regard to its employment in order to
weaken prospective neutral competi-
tors after the war and to drag down
neutral tonnage as far as possible
toward a position of equality Cor in
feriority) with the German mercantile
marine, which has lost between 40
and so per cent Of its ocean tonnage,
so that the neutral trader may be
equally as badly off as his German
rival for tonnage in the after-the-war
race for commerce.
'Tt is hoped that Switzerland and
other neutrals will contrast the re-
spective attitudes Of Germany and the
United States toward the problem of
feeding the neutrals and will take
due notice of this latest attempt of
Germany to intimidate neutral ship
owners, through ruthless submarin-
ing, from carrying food to Switzer-
land. They will also note the same
German spirit toward Holland, which
Germany seems determined to pre-
vent receiving food supplies except
upon German terms"

Marshal French Is Ireland's
New Lord Lieutenant

London, May 6.-Field Marshal
Viscount French has been appointed
| Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.
The official announcement of the
appointment of Field Marshal
French as Lord Lieutenant and Ed
ward Short, member of the House
of Commons for Newcastle-on-the-
Tyne. as Chief Secretary of Ireland,
was issued last night.
Lord French succeeds Baron
Wimborne, who was appointed Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland in 1915, serv
ing to May, 1916, and reappointed
the following August to that post,
after the Dublin revolt. In connec-
ton with that uprising Lord VIM
borne gave testimony before the in
vestigating commission, which later
absolved him from responsibility for
the outbreak.
Field Marshal Viscount French of
Ypres was commander-in-chi of
the British expeditionary forces in
France and Belgium at the outbreak
of the war, in August, 1914, until the
end of 1915. In January, 1916, he
was appointed commander-in-ch
of the home forces. He is a Knight
of the Most Illustrious Order of st.
Patrick.
Viscount French, as commander
in-chief of the home forces since
1915, has made frequent visits to
Ireland under the defense of the
realm act. In previous agitations he
has taken chief part in restoring
order.
1t was his guarantee in March,
1914, to the army officers in Ireland
that they would not be required to
serve against Ulster, which the As
quith government repudiated, that
forced his resignation as chief of the
general staff. Conditions in the Brit
ish army and in Ulster as then re-
vealed are considered one of Ger
many's reasons in forcing the war
when she did. Viscount French was
appointed colonel of the Irish
Guards in 1916, and is colonel-in-
chief of the Royal Irish regiment.

BROWN TOSTAY 4
If O'NIEL WINS
Highway Commissioner Says
He Wants Him to Be
Attorney General

Declaration by J. Denny O'Neil in
speech near Scranton on Saturday,
that he wants Attorney General
Francis Skunk Brown to be his at
torney general if he wins, has Gre
ated much talk. Mr.. Brown was
urged to run for Governor but refus-
ed. If he should remain in poll
tics, 1t would mean, in the minds of
many here, that he would some day
be our candidate for the high office
two of his grandfather's filled. An
other view of the O'Neil declaration
is that the crafty commissioner
wants the impression to get about
that Mr.. Brown, who is very close
to the Wares, is to stay with him and
that he would not do If the Wares
were not for him.
Senator Penrose was bombarded
from a dozen places in Lackawanna
County by O'Neil, Brown and the
Governor on Saturday. Mr.. O'Neil
closed his day with three meetings
in Scranton and Dunmore, after
having spoken at meetings in Peck
vile, Jermyn and Carbondale earlier
in the day, renewing his promise TO
wage war 'relentlessly on Penrose
and Penroseism.
Speaking at the Carbondale meet
ing, Attorney General Brown chars-
ed to Penrose and his adherants in
the State Senate that they were at
all times opposed to the enactment
of the child labor law and the work
mems compensation law. Brown
also accused the Penrose interests
of attempting to play politics in the
disbursement of the $2,000,000 fund
appropriated by the last session of
the Legislature for the protection of
Pennsylvania during the period of
war. Senator Sproul, he accused, of
being party to this scheme.
Governor Brumbaugh and his
party arrived in Scranton by motor
from Wilkes-Barre and visited the
scene of the fatal mine cave at Pitts
ton, and also stopped at Taylor,
where several speeches were deliv-
cred. Governor Brumbaugh. O'Neil,
Scott and Attorney General Brown
were the speakers, all touching on
the mine cave legislation.
Mr.. O'Neil said: II pledge you my
word of honor that if elected Cover
nor I will see that the people of
the anthracite region get a square
deal on your biggest and most vital
issue-the mine cave problem. If
am elected I will have Frank Brown
as my attorney General and we will
go the limit to solve this problem
for you," and the candidates re-
marks won cheers.
Governor Brumbaugh declared
the last mine cave bill was smoth-
cred in committee by men in the
Legislature who were enemies of
the people of Lackawanna Valley.
"They knew I would sign it if it
came to my desk and that is why 1t
died in the hands of the committee"
he said

u. S. Patrol Penetrates
Line, Gets Prisoners

With the American Army in
France, May 6.-One of the Ameri-
can patrols in the Luneville sector
entered the hamlet of Answermillers
early yesterday morning and pene-
trated the German lines to a dis
tance of 500 yards. On the way back
the patrol discovered an enemy OBJ
servation post, in which were a cor
poral and six men. The Americans
promptly attacked, killing three of
the enemy and taking the other four
prisoners, one of them in a wounded
condition.
The first the Germans knew that
the American patrol was near was
when a shower of hand grenades,
followed by bullets, hit the post. The
patrol ceased firing when the enemy
cried "Kamerad!"
