HOLLAND WINS
FIRST VICTORY
OVER CLAUSES OF THE TREATY

Paris, June 10. Correspondence OF
the Associated Press Holland has
scored in the first heat of the diplo-
matte turney with her neighbor Bel
GUM over the clauses of the treaties
of 1899, which have aroused good
deal of fe1fing on both sides OF the
Belgo.Dutch border.
Il was these so years old treaties
that gave Holland the Limburg pen
insula"4-the narrow elongated trip OF
land popularity known as the Dutch
appendix by crossing which, the Ger
mans in their retreat last fall saved
themselves detour of some 40 miles
and possible capture by the Allied
armies.
The Belgians dug up ancient records
showing that several towns and vii
lagos situated in Dutch Limburg had'

though the Dutch Limburgers of the

desires, an influential section OF BEL

Also. to safeguard the future posi-
lions of Antwerp, the Belgian annex

as Dutch Flanders, situated on the
southern bank Of the Scheldt estuary

PORTO RICANS STRIVE
CHECK USE BEVERAGES

San Juan, June s, Correspondence
of the Associated Press efforts are
being made by the Porto Rican authori
ties to check the use as beverages
of tonics. perfumes and lotions con-
tanning alcohol The 1nsular Treasur-
er, Jose G.. Benedicto and DIR. del
Vale Sarraga of the eHalth Depart
ment. recently asked the House of
Representatives to enact Legislation
to prevent the use of sich connections
IS Intoxicating drinks.
Mr.. Benedict" pain ted out that it
was legally permissible to- use alco-
hl' &c: induStri' purposes, under
certain rePu'at'ols. SO that any in
dividual Il prcpA' formula, have
it approved by the :, Treasurer and
Health Department and sell it free,v
throughout the island. Theoretically,
these preparations were nol for m
ternal consumption and were harm
ful to the health, bnt IN .Iacticc it
had been found tina. they wee hsing
drank in alarming quantities, he sad.
Their sale could not very we'll be
stopped as they were permitted by
Jaw.
Before prohibition went into To-
hero s; Mr. Benedicto, the hol
used for industrial purposes in Porto
Rico amounted TO between 1000 and
5000 quarts month. whereas last
March no less than $4,000 quarts were
used and in April. $4,000 quarts"
There were two methods of dealing
! with the question through the legis-
lature. said Mr. Bendictor. Either by
selling all those preparations which
were being used as a drink although
manufactured under insular permits,
or by increasing the quarterly license
to manufacturers to 5000 instead Of
the $25 now being proposed, which
would neable only the larger firms to
manufacture such preparations and
would take them out of the reach Of
the general public.
DR.. del Vale informed the House of
the measures which had already been
adopted to prevent the use of such
tonics for drinking purposes. At first,
he said wood alcohol had been intro
duced into these preparations, but in
view of the terrible effects it pro-
duced, this had been stopped, for they
would simply be leading those people
wro drank the preparations into total
blindness. The other chemicals which
had meen introduced in order to make
the lotions nauseous to the stomach,
had not been very successful, for
means had been found by the people
of filtering the liquids and otherwise
getting rid of such ingredients.
1t is declared that, although abso-
lutte prohibition has been enforced in
the island for year, the police daily
are discovering stills for the distilla-
ton of alcohol

BOOT Logging IS
MEXICAN HABIT

FL Paso, Texas, July 1.--Bootlegging
has assumed widespread proper
tions in Aqua Prieta, Sonora, Mex
leo, across the border from Douglas
Arozona, according to Americans who
have Investigated liquor conditions
in the border state Open saloons are
prohibited by Sonora tate laws, but
little or no effort has bee II made
by the authorities to courtailillicit
liquor traffic, they say.
Cognizance of the situation has
been taken by the authorities, how
ever, to the extent that bill has
been introduced in the state Cham
Der of Deputies perm tting the es-
tablishment of open saloons for the
sale of light wines and beer under
strict state supervision, The bill pur-
poses limiting the number of saloons
in accordance with population and
the payment of high state and NUM-
cipal licenses.
Well informed Mexicans believe
that saloons will return under the
proposed new law as they contend
that while General P. Elias Gales,
military governor of Sonora, is an
advocate of prohibition he would
much perfer the legalizing of the H.
quod traffic with the consequent
revenue to combating the increasing
number of boot-leggers.
The liquor situation in Aqua Prieta
is troublesome one to the better
class of Sonora Mexicans and sedents
of Douglas and other border towns,
It is pointed out that Aqua Prieta Of
fers easy access to any one IN
Douglas who desires to obtain liquor.
At the present time certain Mex
leans with great show of friend
ship invite Americans across the
line to visit the bootleggers.
The Mexican policeman watch all
visitors closely, and II is reported,
make a practice of arresting Amer
leans when Eleir conduct becomes
boisterous and robbing them of their
money and other valuabes. Should
the American protest there is al
ways the alternative of real arrest
and a prison sentence or heavy
fine. Some observers here say the re-
opening of the saloons will do much
toward making bad situation worse.

de.camp for twenty-five British sail
ors who have been prisoners in Rus
ria for some time. Rasekelinkoff was
captured when a Russian destroyer

When the British first proposed his
exchange for twenty-five sailors, the
Bolsheviki demurred on the ground
that the exchange was not fair but the
'Admirals" wife interfered and per
suaded them to make the exchange.

growing is a steady industry in

a tulip farm is reputed to be worth
twenty-five hundred dollars. The
ground is first fortified and plant

the bulbs, then tulips are planted
