NOTICE TO CATTLE OWNERS.

Dr. Swanson has been transferred from Nevada county and have been employed by the federal government to take his place as county agent in tick eradication work.
 At meeting of representative men from all parts of the county, last Saturday it was agreed that cam paign would be put on immediately to eradicate the ticks. To do this will take the hearty cooperation of every loyal citizen in the county A suffic- tent quantity of dip has been ordered to fill every vat in the county, and l expect to charge every vat in the county just as soon as possible. It is our desire that all the cattle in the county, and other stock having ticks be dipped every fourteen days from now until cold weather. It will be impossible for me to get to all the vats (Seventy-two in number) in time to do this. l am therefore requesting parties whose vats need filling to call at the Farmers Union Warehouse and get the solution necessary to charge your vat as soon as it comes. 1 hope to have a number of testing outfits soon and will be able to furnish any community with one of them. and instruct someone in testing the solu- ton.
 We are also perfecting an organiza- tion at each local vat, and asking the patrons to select man there to sup ervise the work. and insist upon every man dipping all of his cattle in com pliance with the law. l will visit every vat in the county just as soon as it is possible for me to do so. l eX- pect to go to those localities needing my esrvices most first, but can come into any community on short notice if I am needed. Please do not wait for me, however, to begin work. If your vat is already charged, get busy and begin dipping your cattle at once.
 The federal government requires us to dip every fourteen days until such time as it seems safe to change.
 I expect to give every hour of my time to this work, and with your hearty cooperation hope to clean up Nevada county. This is not only a practical business proposition. but 1t is a patriotic duty. It is war meas ure. The people of Nevada county have never yet failed to do their duty when called upon, and l know they will not fail this time. Let's get busy and do this thing and be done with it.
 Yours for a clean county and better cattle,
 J. M. Thomas, County Agent.

PRIVATE BUILDERS
 ARE GIVEN PERMIT
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, March 30.-A new shipbuilding program for private inter- ests was approved today by the ship ping board, as a further offset to the drive against allied tonnage which is being made by German submarines.
 Chairman Hurley announced that the request of the Atlantic and Pacific Steamship company for permission to place contracts with shipyards in Ore- gon for 150 motor driven wooden ships of 5000 tons each had been granted, under certain restrictions. The new contracts will not interfere with the government program.
 The government building program for March surpassed the goal set in launchings by 12,000 tons, the shipping board announced today, but fell short in deliveries, because of shortage of steel plates.
 Make Greater Effort
 Thirty hulls of 232.7s6 tons were put into the water and 20 vessels of 1S2, 200 tons were completed.
 Growth of the submarine toll has spurred officials to greater efforts to hasten the building of ships. The four official announcements issued in Lon- don this month contained the records of S1 British ships sunk, of which 54 were of more than 1,600 tons each. In February the loss of 67 British ships, of which 49 were more than 1,600 tons each, was recorded. The total increase was IA ships, or twenty per cent.

 AIR ESPIONAGE
Republican %. p. Leased Wirc1

NEWARK. N. J., March 30.-Admis- sion that group of German spies have been employed in the plant of the Cur tis Engineering Corporation at Hemp stead, W. r., on Long Island has been obtained from Mrs. Lydia White, a woman arrested today with blue prints of airplanes in her possession, the police have announced.
 The woman, who is 25 years old, was turned over to the federal authorities and held in $10,000 bail, together with Frederick Arnoldi, a boarder in her home in Hampstead. The pair were arrested here after they had been To- cated by Albert White, the woman's husband. The police say search of their room here disclosed the blue prints. She told her story of Ger man spies in the Curtis plant after being questioned by Inspector Cordially. who immediately notified the federal authorities.
 Arnoldi Has Record
 Arnoldi was formerly employed at the the Curtis plant as an assistant superintendent. Mrs. White defended him and said, according to the police, that her husband had sought to have her sign a statement duplicating Aronldi as a spy.
 
 ican, Mrs. White said she had been threatened with death by her husband, a foreman for the Curtis Engineering Corporation, if she did not sign state- ment duplicating Arnoldi and several others employed in the plant with Ger man spy activities. She refused to sign, she said, because she knew 1t was not Arnoldi, but others who were work ing against the government.
 Lead Used as Steel
 'I know Germans are working in the airplane plant" she told the investiga- tors. Work is being held up there. blue prints are being changed, brazing on the machines is being tempered with and lead is being substituted for steel in certain parts of the machines"
 Arnoldi, who admitted that his father was born in Germany, denied that he was a German agent.

DUTCH PAINFULLY
 SuRPR|SEDA AT ACT
 OF UNITED STATES
Republican A. p. Leased Wirs1

THE HAGUE, March So.-The Of- ficial Gazette publishes the following statement by The Netherlands govern ment on the subject of the proclama- tion and additional statement by the president of the United States dated March 20:
 With painful surprise the govern ment and whole Dutch nation has taken notice of the presidential proclama- tion and the statement of March 20 re- lative to the seizure of part of the Dutch merchant fleet
 'The seizure en bloc of a neutral mercantile fleet if only for the dura- tion of the war, is an act indefensible from the view point of international law and unjustifiable toward friendly na- tion, apart from considerations of legality.
 But the manner also in which the presidential statement defends this act of violence does not contribute toward lessening the sting thereof for this de- fense has plainly been drawn up and the influence of a completely incorrect representation of affairs.
 Tt surely was against She traditional friendship between the two countries, although on this point the presidential statement keeps silence

 During Friday morning, low clouds and rain greatly interferred with fly ing, but in spite of the weather valu- able work was accomplished by our airplanes. Our machines concentrated their efforts upon the battle area south of the Somme where observers previously had reported large columns of the enemy advancing from the east. Many bombs were dropped and thousands of rounds of ammunition were fired upon these columns.
 "A great deal of fighting took place, the enemy's low flying machines be- ing particularly active in this area. Nine hostile airplanes were shot down and two were driven down out of control. Two of ours are missing.
 During the night over F tons of bombs were dropped on Bapaume and roads in the vicinity and also on roads and villages east of Arras. Di- rect hits were obtained on ammuni- tion dumps and the transport rail- way line. One of our machines IS not yet located"

NEW YORK, March 30.-Madame Despina Davidovitch Storch, the young Turkish woman who was charged with being the leader of a band of German spies taken into cus- today in this city a fortnight ago, died suddenly today in her quarters on Ellis Island, it was learned to- night.
 The death of Madame Storch is be- lieved to have been due to pneumonia, although secrecy was maintained as to the details. She had been taken to Ellis Island pending action by the government which probably would have resulted in her being deported to France where she might have met the traditional fate of spy.

Vigorous Offensive On Western
Front Is Urged To Check
mate Germany.
BLISS BACK IN FRANCE
Chief of Staff to Represent v. S. On
War Council-Carries Rec
concentrations For In
itiatIve by Allies.

Washington, Jan, 26.-The United
States will be represented on tie
supreme war council by General Tas-
ker III. Bliss.
Secretary Baker in so announcing,
disclosed that the general is accompa-
MED by high officers of every branch
of the service to advise about any
questions that may arise.
While Secretary Bakers statement
merely said that General Bliss had ar
rived in France to represent the army
on the council, there have been inti-
nations that renewed recommends
tions for vigorous offensive operations
on the widest possible scale were in
cluded in the instructions the general
received before sailing.
Will Plan to Meet Drive.
Probably the primary consideration
before the council when it recon
venes will be the widely advertised
proposed German offensive on the
Western front. A mass of informa-
tion has reached the Allied powers
from many quarters indicating an inn
pendind drive against the British or
French lines, or both. which will be
carefully reviewed. Ways and means
to meet such concentration of Ger
man and Austrian forces as is indi.
Gated, undoubtedly have been consid
cred.
The possibility is suggested here
that the Allies may anticipate the
German attack with great drive as
the British once did in Flanders.
General Bliss attended the first
meeting of the council and decision
to send him back to Europe as a per-
manent representative in that body
was made because it was recognized
that General Pershing's duties in
organizing and commanding tle ever
increasing American expeditionary
forces were too great to permit him
to undertake the presentation of
American views on military opera
tions and to sit with the council
in framing plans OF strategy that
cover all fronts and all armies.
No word of the departure of Gen
eral Bliss had been published until
the news of his safe arrival came.
