MANN URGES PLAN

WAsHINGToN, March 3.-Without spe-

the House declared that the war would
have been fught in vain II something
was not done to prevent future wars,
Democratic members OF the House

There seems to me to be quite a

fellow Republicans" declared Mr.. Mann.

dent for his part in reference to a
League of Nations, but to criticise the
idea that the United States shall enter
into any arrangement which may tend
to prevent war In the future
Representative Baer On. d. inter-
rupted to say that Mr.. Mann confined
his structures to the Republicans, when
as a matter OF fact there was as much
criticism by one side as the other" in
both Senate and House.
Mr., Mann said he did not criticise
any one who had spoken on the League
OF Nations
81 am only saying, he stated, that,
in my Judgment, II Is desirable and. l
think, essential that something shall
come out Of the war which may tend
to prevent future wars. and not merely

GERMANY REFUSES
PAYMENT FOR FOOD
Great Cdrgoes Waiting Until
Money Is Forthcoming.
Special Cd6ie Despatch 10 THE sux.
Copvrfoht. 1878; oil riohfa rea,rr,d

LONDON, March 3.-If Germany Is
having trouble through lack of food Il
Is not because the Allies and America
have not made efforts TO provide the
beaten foe with foodstufrs. Although
technically the blockade still exists Il
does not affect Germany's importation
OF foodstuffs. Germany's reluctance to
pay for the food with gold from her
vast hoard in the Reichsbank is re-
sponsible for the starving condition Of
her people.
The American meat packers alone
could supply enough food for the peo-
pie OF Germany and Austria, but they
cannot do business with people who will
not pay. More than two months ago
great cargoes Of frozen meats were
prepared for shipment, but they were
held UP because OF the fiat refusal OF
the German authorities to make any
sort OF reasonable settlement on a gold
basis.
Large cargoes OF foodstufrs have been
despatched to the Scandinavian countries
and undoubtedly some OF these already
have reached Germany. but thousa nd 8
OF tons are still tied up here because
OF the difficulty OF reaching an agree
ment over payment. There is one ship
ment OF 1000 tons OF beef at Buenos
Ayres billed to Stockholm, but It can
not move because OF muddled orders
from different commissions.
The meat situation Is excellent and
there is also plenty OF canned goods.
with excellent prospects for lower prices
when the restrictions aro@cenoved at the
end of this month. Big cargoes were
landed In the last few days at many
ports here and on the Continent, but
none OF this food will reach Germany
until there are indications that payment
, will be forthcoming
The Manchester Gudrdidn advocates
raising the blockade TO relieve hunger
conditions In Germany, thereby remoy-
, ing the danger of anarchy. It says:
I'VE are not only maintaining the
blockade but we have increased Its
stringency Those OF Germany's ports
that were open during the war. which
includes all those on the Baltic, are now
, closed. Fishing was possible then, even
In the North Sea, and the Baltic was
unobstructed. Now Il is prohibited in
both seas. This Is an absurd and disas-
| trous policy. and the only defence is
that II means enforcing the peace terms
but this defence does not hold water.
I'VE have taken care to have other
means OF enforcing the peace terms. and
II need be we could renew the blockade
at any time. We talk OF indemn ties
hut how Is Germany. ruined, In social
| dissolution, going TO pay indemnitles,
II our object be to infiict the maximum
penalty on Germany's industries as she
ruined those of Belgium and France
and kill all the young as she did. that
| might be rude k'nd OF Justice of n pre.
christian model Germany and Russia
must remain essential factors in a world
settlement. Far too little heed Is paid
to this fundamental fact"

PROTEST TRAFFICKINC
WITH BOLSHEVIKI
Russian Patriots Cable Plea to
Lodge.
sp,csoi pespatcA to Tvs eu..N


wArHIsoroN, March s.-senator
Hitchcock (Neb). retiring chairman OF
tho Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee, and Senator Lodge (MaH.). NIL
nority leader Of the Senate, to-day re-
ceived from members Of the anti-Bol-
shevlk Russian Republicans a cable
gram of protest against the proposed
trafYicking through diplomatic channels
with the Bolsheviki. The cablegram was
signed by Vladimir Bourtzeff, q revo-
lutionist, and Boris Savlnkoff, former
acting War Minister. 1t follows,
Russian patriots who fought against
Cxarism during the worst period Of Rus
sian history address themselves to the
heart and reason OF the American peo-
pie.
mo durable peace will DO possible as
long as the Bolshevik danger persists.
The organised Boisheviki are practically
under direct and most dangerous hold OF
the German General Stan, and the Rus
sian people are disarned, deceived and
terrorised by nameless crimes. The Rus
sian people understand now the danger
they run and ask only help to disembar-
rass Themselves OF the Bolshevik peril.
I'm case the Russian people are left
without help from outside, Germany will
conquer economically and politically all
Russia, and will fatefully finish by a
most horrible German Bolshevik inva-
sion of all occidental Europe with the
consequent establishment Of Pan-Ger-
man domination throughout the whole
world.
Believing that the only idea Of the
Prinkipo conference reinforced the Boil
shevik spirit and confidence we Russian
patriots protest with all our force
against any negotiation between the
Allies and the Bolsheviki and insist on
the absolute necessity of solution Of the
Russian problem SO necessary for q just
and durable peace conformable to the
principles Of tho allied and associated
Powers"
