NO LIQUIDATION
OF j. S. HOLDINGS,
SAYS DELBRUECK

BERLIN, August 6.-(By Asso-
ciated Press. Germany has not
liquidated American private or bust
ness property, Clemens Won Del
.brueck, acting Minister Of Justice,
told the Associated Press correspond
mt today. He declared that Ger
many did, on March 4, 1918, issue
a ruling whereby the liquidation was
permitted because America already
had done the same.
While America carried out this
liquidation measure, the minister SAID
that Germany never did 50, but on
the contrary, merely regulated and
administered American property.
'When this administration is remov-
ed the Americans will have their free
property again" said Her Won Del
brueck
an no single case has Germany
touched or violated American trade
marks, continued the minister. In
the case of patents We distributed
licenses for their use by Germans in
five cases but we never declared
American patents null or void.
american patents and trade
mark might be limited in Germany
by an act Of January 8, 1918, if 1t
lay in the public interest and Ger
man could have, under certain cir
cumstapces a license to use an Am
eric2n Patent. This order was is
sued because America, long before
had passed a similar law and operat-
ed It in general. Germany was par
tieularly hesitating in all these ques-
tons notwithstanding America pass
ed a pretentious 'aw of this kind, /
because Germany hoped to be able |
soon to resume friendly business re-
lations with the United States"
The Ministry of Justice quoted A.
Mitchell Palmer. former Alien Prop
eryt Custodian Of America, as having (
declared in his report to the United
States senate in February last that
Germany had done the same as Am
erica in liquidating alien property
but had always been little ahead
of America in doing so.
at is false to say that Germany
preceded America and correct to
say that Germany only used retalia-
ton said the minister.

IdSh OF IRON III the Otool. Ihcre is To-Day
a surprising number Of persons who suffer
from iron deficiency. Many capable man
or woman falls just short of winning because
they don't back up their mentality with the
physical strength and energy which comes
from having plenty of iron in the blood.
Lack of iron in the blood not only makes a
man a physical and mental weakling, nerv-
Gus, irritable, easily fatigued, but it utterly
robs him of that virile force, that stamina
and strength of will which are SO necessary
to success and power in every walk of life.
1t may also transform beautiful, sweet
tempered woman into one who is cross,
nervous and irritable. To help make strong,
keen, red-blooded Americans there is nothing
in my experience which | have found SO
valuable as organic iron-Nuxated Iron"

BLAME FOR WAR

STA DECLARES IN LETTER RE-
sPoNslBILITY is ON ALLIES.
The Letter Asserts That For Five
Years England Had Been Preparing
For the World War In Order TO
eliminate Germany.

Copenhagen.-Fo Prince Henry
Of Prussia, in letter to King George,
nnblished by the Hamburger Mach
ricten, says the truth about the war
NAV be obtained from allied statesmen
and suggests that if the former Ter
man Emperor is placed on trlal the
statesmen will also appear.
The letter asks King George, lin the
name of Justice and his own interests,
to quit demanding the eXtraditlon ana
trial of the former German ruler. The
letter. which is signed ''Your humble
cousin, Henry" charges that England
plotted Germany's commercial down
fall.
If the allies desire the truth, the for
mer Prince says, the leading statesmen
of Great Britain and her allies also
should be brought before the tribunal
as Ordinarily and urgently suspected
of guilt in the world war"
The letter continues:
Germany has been hit severely, but
is not dead. The German spirit, which
now seems to be dead. still lives ana
one day will awaken to full con-
seriousness of the disgrace and shame
that has been inflicted and will de-
mand a reckoning"
The letter charges that the British
Government for five years prepared
for the world war in order to elimi-
nate Germany as a troublesome COM
petitor from the worlds markets.
Prince Henry continues:
"Let me remind Your Majesty only
of your meetings with M. Sazono1t
(then Minister of Foreign Affairs In
September, 1912, at Balmoral, and the
utterances of Your Majesty on that oc-
casion, which leaves no doubt OF the
fate planned for the German war and
merchant navy"
Germany was overcome, Prince
Henry declared, not by the arms of the
Entente, but by silver bullet which
lodged I'm the back of the German pub
lie. The letter refers to the hunger
blockade, (which failed as little in its
effects upon the German public as did
formerly British measures against the
women and children of the Beers"
