CLASH IS THREATENED
Italians and slavs' Dependence on
U. s. Seen as Bar to Another Pos
sibIe European War-Dispute
Over Boundary.

Madrid, March 3.-Martial law has
been declared in Madrid and troops are
patrolling the streets. Order has been
restored, but some theaters have been
closed. The action vas the result of
rioting against proiteers, provision
and butcher shops being attacked by
mobs.
The government has taken posses
sion of all b%akeshops.
Premier Romanones has issued a
statement saying protests against pro-
vision dealers had assumed such an
aspect that it was necessary TO take
precautions.
Nations in Dispute.
Paris, March 3.-America stands to-
day as the chief factor for averting the
latest threatened European war. The
squabble between the Italians and the
Jugo-Slavs for control of the Adriatic
has reached a stage bordering on &C
tual hostility. Both countries, how
ever, are dependent on America eco
nomically. In case open warfare re-
suits, America Immediately will cut off
their supplies of food and money, rem
dering them practically impotent, it
was understood from reliable sources.
Just how near Italy and Jugo-Slavia
are to an armed clash is evidenced by
the fact the Italians have closed the
entire frontier, as established by the
Austrian armistice, giving as their rea-
son that they do not wish to have i'm
mediate resort to military action in
occupying the territories consented to
in the armistice."
Claims SIavs Modified.
The Italians claim the Jugo-Slavs
have IL divisions modified near the
border. They say an Italian food train
has been attacked and that in one in.
stance the flag on a train bear re.
patriated Italians was torn down and
burned.
Make countercharges.
The Jugo-SAvs deny they have or
dered a general mobilization and make
the countercharge that the Italians
have still under arms an army of more
than 5000, 900.
The peace delegates are understood
to be discussing the situation infor
mally, but have taken no action. 1t is
considered probable that when the
general conference %convenes AGAR
after President Wilson returns. it will
be necessary to lay down definite
boundaries in disputed territories, be
yond which no e%ncroachment will be
permitted.

Typhus Is Reported to Be
Spreading.

Washington, March 3.-More light
on conditions in Russia under Boil
shevik rule is given by a summary Of
reports secured recently from q. party
of refugees who passed through Hell
singfors on their way from Moscow
to Stockholm. The summary was made
public by the state department because
of the various conflicting stories Of
conditions received lately.
Country Is Stripped.
The party at Helsingfors,' said the
summary, was composed of French,
British, Belgian and Italian citizens,
most of them Red Cross workers.. The
reports all agree as TO the excessive
cost of all necessities and the scarcity
Of food.
Dog meat is quoted at 4 roubles
($2} a pound. horse meat at Is roubles
a pound; pork at 90 roubles and bread
at Is roubles.
The country is practically stripped
of all manufactured articles, especially
wearing apparel and all grain and sup
plies are reuuisitioncd by the soviet
government from peasants who receive
nothing in return.
"Typhus is reported to be spreading,
LOCO new cases being reported at Mos
COW weekly and the hospitals are un-
able to take care OF them. Lack of
milk has resulted in many deaths of
children from starvation.
Workmen Get Most Food.
The food situation in Russia is very
bad and the food is distributed in
three c%ategories. il full portion to those
doing heavy work, a kuif portion TO
employees of the soNiu, government
and private houses and general office
work, and o%ne-fourth portion to people
not engaged in any occupation.
The portions depend on the sup
plies on hand, a full portion generally
being one pound of bread daily. Sol.
diers get an army portion of two
pounds of bread, half a pound of meat
daily and an additional monthly al.
lowance of two and one-half pounds OF

TESTIMONY is GIVEN BEFORE

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Should
the price of pork drop 1 cent Lewis
f. Swift would lose $2,500,O00 on
the stock that he now holds, he tes-
titled before the house interstate
commerce committee Monday after
noon. The company's stock of pork
now aggregates 250,00O,0OO pounds
and was bought, he said, on request
of the food administration with the
assurance that price of 171a cents
a pound would be maintained.
In a final effort to save the presi-
dents $100,000,000 food bill Senator
Hitchcock took the senate floor and
admitted that the purpose was, in
part, to save packing houses from
loss. He justified the position taken
by Herbert Hoover, however, on the
ground that since the packers kept
their promise to the administration
to buy pork at u cents a pound
it was up to the food administration
to keep its word to the packers and
supply a market for their product
Keeping Word With Packers.
Hoover not only is keeping his
word with the packers, but he Is
forcing Great Britain to keep her
word and Italy and France to keep
their word" Hitchcock said.
do senators mean to tell me they
want to break the promise of an au-
thorized government official to these
packers? 1t would be like breaking
the governments word on the 1919
wheat guarantee to the. farmers"
Hitchcock read a statement from
the food administrator cabled from
Paris, in which Hoover ridiculed the
idea that he was working in the in
terest Of the larger packers.

ton and after the constitutional
amendment becomes operative.
Senator Sheppard sponsor for the
nationwide prohibition amendment,
said tonight nothing would be done
to interfere with rites of churches nor
of other necessary uses of alcoholic
liquors, but that strict regulations
would be provided to prevent abuses of
such privileges by INSCRIPTIONS per-
sons seeking to violate the law under

The ordinary whisky is not suffi-
GENTLY high in proof to be of value

for industrial purposes have been
manufactured in the United States
during the last year, although many
distilleries were closed for produc-

purposes.
