Sinking of Hospital Ship
Delays Sailing of Comfort

WASHINGTON, July 2. Plans for
the sailing of the American hospital
ship Comfort, which it was proposed
to send through the submarine zone
without convoy, have been delayed by
the ruthless destruction of the Cana
dian hospital ship Llandovery Castle.
1t is not yet decided whether the orig
inal plans will be changed.
A high naval official pointed out to-
dey that all nations are otified of the
time of the sailing of a hospital ship,
it's course and the time of its return
and said that naturally the question
arises as to the advisabili.y of follow
irg the rules of international warfare
in this respect with the sailing Of the
Comfort VIXEN Germany refuses to
recognize these rules.
Secretary Daniels declined to discuss
the matter to-day further than to say
that the Comfort is not ready to sail.

Capital Obtains Supplies
From Germany, Only for
military Purposes"
Barefoot Nation
Demands Equality
Willing to Share Harvest,
but Will Not Be Annexed
Economically
tspec,as Dispatch to The Tribune,


WASHINGTON, July 2.-The State
Department was informed to-day that
Austria would have no relief from her
food shortage, certainly for the next
six weeks, until the new Hungarian
crops came in. The Vienna government
has obtained cereals from Germany,
which, however. afford no relief to the
population, as they were obtained "for
military reasons" and will be supplied
to the army.
The Vienna people were said to be
on the verge of starvation, the bread
ration being ninety grammes = day, and
the supply on hand allows that quantity
to be distributed for only two weeks.
The departments report states that
General Ludendorff replied to an ap-
peal of the Mayor of Vienna for bread
that Germany had done all that she
could. An appeal to the Mayor Of Buda-
pest brought no better response.
Hungary, according to advices from
Geneva, is not disposed to render Aus
tria any relief except in exchange for
commodities needed most by Hungary.
Tells of Hungary's Needs
The "Vilag' was quoted as saying:
"If we have any surplus food we are
in need of other articles. We may
support the mutual front with supplies
only if we receive boots, clothes, linen,
agricultural machinery and other az
ticles of industry in exchange for our
surplus
The "Pesti Naplo," a leading Hun
garian industrial organ, says:
I'VE acknowledge that Austria is
barefooted. We will gladly speak with
Austria and Germany about sharing the
harvest, but only as independent and
OF equal rights. We will not allow our
selves to be annexed economically"
A Zurich telegram quotes Berlin
report as saying that the potato ration
would be reduced to three pounds a
week beginning July I. In Saxony the
distribution of potatoes has completely
stopped since June "a.
Reduced Rations
a Copenhagen dispatch says:
"It is announced from Berlin that
the weekly ration of potatoes will be
reduced to three pounds from July j
This same ration has been reduced at
Hamburg since June 20 to two pounds
per person. without assurance that the
stocks in hand will be sufficient to
guarantee this new portion
Newspapers all report that it is very
difficult to get new potatoes, taxed a,
2S pfennigs pound. AS a compensa
ton, 250 gramn1es of oatmeal is granted
per week and the weekly ration OF
wheat is being raised from 200 to 25C
grammes The cattle reserved fol

there. are no more survivors, from the
Llandovery Castle"
Andrew Bonar Law, Chancellor of
the E%chequer, speaking in the House
Of Commons to-day, said that one
would have thought that nothing new
as regards German brutality could have
happened, but the sinking of the Ca
madam hospital ship Llandovery Castle
was an unspeakable outrage. Nothing
could be gained, he added by talking
about this last example of frightful-
ness.
"The wild beast is at large" said
Mr.. Bonar Law. "There is no use
arguing or reasoning about it. The
only thing to do is to destroy it, That
is the duty, and it is UP to all the
Allies to, set their teeth until that
end is achieved
Major r. Lyon, of the Canadian Med
zeal Corps, who suffered such severe
treatment when he was taken from the
captains boat and dragged aboard the
German submarine, has been brought
to hospital in London.
" dread to think what would have
happened to an American flying officer
had he been in my Shoes" said Major
Lyon to-day. He then related to the
Associated Press his experiences with

"This seemed to surprise the Ger
mans, as they pretended to be sure that
aviators were aboard have nv
doubts about this belief being genuine,
my idea being that the Germans simply
used this AS pretext for the torpedo
ing of the Llandovery Castle"
The Germans apparently had before
hand information, as the commander
of the submarine, said Major Lyon, had
asked about eight flying officers. Eight
medical officers had intended to make
the trip, but one did not sail at the
last minute because of illness.
"The Germans" he said, "seemed OBJ
