INFANT STATES
,~-P. STILL ISOLATED
Restriction on Trade in Force-Cen
sors at Work-Although Block
ade Has Been Lifted. Poland
and Other Countries
Suffer.

Paris, April 11.-Although the
blockade has been formally lifted
against all enemy countries except
Germany and against Bolshevist
Russia, restrictions on trade with
Poland, Esthonia and Eastern and
Southeastern Europe continue to be
exercised. There still is censorship
of mails and; kilograms and an abb
sence of postal communication with
the "infant" States and resumption
of trade and of business relations is
virtually blocked. T.
The American delegates have been
pressing in the interallied council for
modification of the censorship, but
the system as regards Europe re-
mains in force. The associated gov.
ernments therefore remain in the po-
sition of giving with one hand by
lifting the blockade and with holding
with the other by maintaining COM
mercial censorship. It is hoped, nev-
ertheless, that there soon will be re-
laxations in or a removal of the cen
sorship. ~
The business situation in Poland,
Esthonia and the other new States
illustrates the entire dependence of
trade on communication. The block
ade no longer exists for these coun-
tries in theory, but owing to the alb
sence of postal or cable communica-
ton business men in Poland for in
stance, are unable to place orders
with the: outer world or arrange for
a resumption of business relations.
One Pole. who reached Paris with
the Polish mission this week brought
no less than 180 important letters
which will reach the United States,
thanks only to this special oppor-
tunity. Other business interests /. in
Warsaw and Lodz and similar trade
and industrial centers of the new
state can not even lay. the prelimi.
nary foundations for business with
the United States until mail route
is established and the commercial
censorship'is modified.

cables to European neutrals contin-
ues in full force. Complaints, back
cd by evidence, are constantly being
received in Paris. These are to the
effect that the censorship is being
Utilized not alone for the legitimate
purpose Of preventing or hampering
trade with Germany but also to give
the nationals of the country exer-
cising the censorship an unfair ad-
vantage over American competitors
through information extracted from

ton that all important business in.
formation obtained from American
mail was being registered, tabulat.
ed and studied for the benefit OF
British trade, was constantly made
in Scandinavia before and after the
entry of the United States into the
war. American business men who
recently have been in Scandinavia
assert that they received the distinct
impression that this, system was still
in vogue. In one case an, American
business man with extensive con
nections in Europe, is said to have
found a circular'letter to his agents

GHENT GARDEN MENACED
BY RULING; ASK EXPERT

BRUSSELS. June Is Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-The city Of
Client, which is noted for It's magnificent
botanic garden. is greatly concerned over
the ruling Of the American Department
Of Agriculture prohibiting the importa-
ton of live plants. owing to danger Of
insect infection. 1t is stated that this
will mean a yearly loss of business
amounting to 100000 francs.
AS no shipments have been made to
America for the last three years it is
felt that Americans have no proof as to
the existence OF insect menace and the
authorities have requested through the
consular channels that an American ex-
pert be sent to Client to test the soil
and plants in the hope that the pro-
hibition will be withdrawn.

contains lessons which are calculated
to prove of value to persons ignorant
of the physiology Of birth, of the care
of babies and of the vital necessity,
for the good of the race, of avoiding
venereal diseases.
The pictures dealing with "the mys-
teries of life" suggest the laboratory
and the class room for medical stu
dents. The subject has been handled
from the standpoint OF the physician
and the nurse. The lewd finds no
place in the pictures.
The films showing cases Of venereal
diseases are designed as a warning
to men and women alike. The pic
lures are being shown separately to
male and female audiences, to the
women at matinees and to men at

The proper care of the baby and
