 ed, According to Papers.

Amsterdam, Aug. A.---Germany has energetically protested against the intention of Spain to succeed sunken Spanish tonnage by interned German ships, says an official statement issued in Berlin.
 A Madrid dispatch on August 21, said that the Spanish ambassador in Berlin had been instructed to inform the German government that Spain will utilize German vessels now in Spanish ports in place Of Spanish ships sunk by German submarines. It was said that this decision was an- nounced in an official statement is- sued after a meeting of the Spanish ministry.
 London, Aug. 24.---Germany reply to Spain's announcement as to sub marine warfare, which is reported tc have been sent, says such a procedure on the part of Spain as was indicated in the instructions to the Spanish am- bassador in Berlin might possibly re. suit in the severance of relations be- tween the countries, according to g Copenhagen dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Co. The note declares however, that Germany is ready tc consider limiting the operations o1 submarines outside of the danger zone.
 It is said that Germany has in, formed Spain that she cannot render any guarantee in this respect ant cannot treat Spain in an exceptiona way. Germany, the note says, canno give up the submarine warfare anc hopes that Spain, which has expressed a desire to maintain her neutrality will really remain neutral.

Imperial Chancellor Vol Hertling does not desire to furnisl any guarantee against submarin warfare, it is said, and the Maur; ministry in Spain is maintaining it position.

The WAR STOMACH
Can Do Its Bit by Eating Third
Less Turnout e. s.
And Owner Be Better Off

BY GEORGE MARTIN.

Washington, Jan. 9.-The American
stomach should follow the example
set by those of her allies-and her
enc mies-i1 the war.
Tons of food can be saved daily II
America would quit eating third to
half again as much at each meal as II
needs, GOOD officials declared.
Most of US eat ourselves stupid,
one said today. 'In Germany and
England ane France they have been
compelled to quit that and insurance
statistics show that, except where the
food supply in Germany has sunk be-
low the amount actually needed to IN

for it,
Government information shows that
what this man says of Germany is
true of the middle and poorer classes
only. The rich still find opportunity
and inclination to make dining room
pigs of themselves.
The official referred to makes the
suggestion that American overeaters
quit their appetite habit voluntarily
But in Germany, where the scarcity OF
food is critical, many strange tricks
have been 1esorted to to compel the
reform.
Rich Pay for Poor Mans Meal.
To lesser. discrimination by hotel
keepers in favor of the rich of heavy
appetite, Vienna hotels have esta b.

rich and poor alike.
Everything calculated to encourage
appetite has been eliminated from the
'simplified hotels"
In Berlin, Vienna and other cities,
food prices in hotels and restaurants
have been boosted by government or
der from SO to 100 per cent, to 'in-
sure moderate eating"
The American official does not ad-
vocate these measures for US, but he
does say that 9every Americanswho
gets up from the table with a Salts

stuffed animal, renders the nation and
