The. problem Of the organic fertility
Of the North Pacific ocean. was the
subject Of an address by Ellis Ia

He said: The ocean. like the land,
has it's plants. Its plant-eating ami
mails, and. It's carnivorous animals, but
the vast majority of them all are
microscopic Destruction Of this plant
life would make the ocean lifeless. for
all. marine animals depend finally
upon this life for food. Most Of the
minute. plants and animals pass their
lives upon or les the surface Of the
sea. and their carcasses sink to the
ocean floor, where. becoming inter-
mixed with mud. they form organic
ooze-the final food Of all bottom
dwelling. animals.

Dye INDUSTRY,
HOUSE TOLD
Interest Plan to Sell
Surplus Output to China
and America.

Washington, June 1s.-German dye
interests, barred from France and
England, look to America and China
for disposal Of their large surplus OUT
put manufactured during the war, Jo-
seph H. Choate. Jr.. counse for h
Chemical Foundation, Inc. told the
house ways and means committee to-
day in urging a licensing system for
the protection of the American dye in
dustry.
Tariff alone won't ave the dye
industry" he declared.
Mr.. Choate said that anti-dumping
laws would not suffice because it was
so easy for the Germans to conceal
their dye shipments so that 1t would
be practically impossible to detect
them.
He read a report on the outlook for
the German dye interests in America
written six weeks before the United
States declared war on Germany by
American branch of a German house.
Gle was a direct secret service en-
ployee bearing the number s%63.1s2,-
| 637. given him by the imperial war
minister" said Mr.. Choate. HE came
! here, became a citizen under orders
from his government, and led the es-
pionage and propaganda movements
till his death in November, 1917"
In the report. which was forwarded
to Count Won Bernstorff. DR.. Schweit-
ger declared the German dye industry
would have no difficulty in holding
the American market in the face of
the thirty per cent ad valorem duty,
but that the specific duties imposed
Eunder the law would be more trouble
some. He added the Germans must
sell more than forty per cen Of the
derivatives and dyes in the American
market so the president could abolish
the specific duties al the law provid-
ed would be done if sixty per cent OF
the home consumption was not pro-
duced in America.
A hostile dye industry, Mr.. Choate
declared, is an ideal center of espion.

International News
Epents Summarized
(By the Associnted Prees.,

Growing belief that Germany
would sign. the peace treaty was
strengthened today by news of the
fall of the S~cheidemann ministry il
that country. The premier had been
most outspoken in his opposition to
the treaty. Paris, advices indicate
the expectation there hat the cabinet
by his successor will be one
that will accept the Allied terms. 1t
minister. Of defense, will head the
new ministry.
From the current German dis
patches it would appear that the ma
jority Socialists, the Independent Sos
cialists and the centrists are in favor
of signing the treaty, with the Ger
man national and democratic parties
opposed to accepting the terms. AS
the first three organizations form an
overwhelming majority in the ma
tional assembly, it appears the new
date to meet the demands of the
Entente.
A situation has arisen in Italy that
threatens to complicate the work of
the peace conference. Premier Or
lando last night submitted the resig-
nation of his cabinet from an adverse
vote in the chamber of deputies on a
motion by the premier for a. secret
session at which the foreign policy of
the Kingdom would be discussed. The
resignation has not been accepted by
King Victor Emmanuel as yet, how
ever. and it may be that Signor Or
ilando will remain in office, carrying
on the work of the peace conference
in which he has been one of the most
prominent figures.
Should Premier Orlando quit Of
fee there apparently would be a con-
siderable delay in the settlement Of
the Adriatic problem. In his address
before the chamber prior to the vote.
the premier said that the situation at
present was grave and that Italy was
facing. 'the most acute phase of the
immense crisis arising from the war"
Meanwhile, Notwithstanding the
signs that Germany will accept the
peace treaty, the Allied forces are
|.prepared for her refusal Of 1t.
Marshal Foch. it is reported, will be
in command on a front extending
from the Rhine to the Danube should
a forward movement be necessary.
Swiss advices say Italian forces have
begun to occupy Vorarlberg, in the
extreme western part of Austria, in
anticipation of a refusal on h part
of either Germany or Austria to meet
the Allied terms. Switzerland, in the
meantime, is prepared to maintain
her neutrality, having called out
troops to guard her northern from
tier.
