TO KILL

London. June 20.-(By Mail)-The
life of the famous African elephant
seems to be in danger for the South
African CAPE provincial council pro-
poses to e~xterrninate those in the
Aldo Bush Forest. near Port Eliza

For. generations past these animals
have been akgreat nuisance to the
farmers. They have damaged crops
and killed several persons.
The African elephant is noted for
its laziness-Quite the reverse to its
Indian relative who when called upon
cheerfully and easily shoulders q
burden Of q ton or So. However, an
effort is to be made to train the young
ones for log-haufing in the Cape for
ests. 80 81
The rounding UP Of the animals has
involved the erection of a number Of
lofty observation towers and 80 large
are the numbers to be killed that the
shooting Of the animals will take over
six months. The natives enjoy ele-
plants meat and the prospect of an
unlimited supply for several months
Is being eagerly looked forward to.

should the threat be carried into ef-
feet the elephant like the mastodon
and the ichthyoNnrus, may become

HOLLAND SCORES
FIRST HEAT
Fight is Over Clauses Of
Treaties With Belgium
Of 1889.

Paris, June 12.-(Correspondence
Of the Associated Pres)-Holland
has scored in the first heat Of the dip
lomatic tourney with her neighbor
Belgium yer the clauses of the trea-
ties of 1889. which have aroused q
good deal Of feeling on both sides Of
the Belgo-Dutch border.
1t was these 80 years old treaties
that gave Holland the Limburg pc
of land popularity known as the
Dutch appendix" by crossing which,
the Germans in their retreat last fall
saved themselves a detour of some 40
miles and possible capture by the al
lied armies.
The Belgians dug up ancient rec
ords showing hat several towns and
villages situated in Dutch Limburg
had, in the thirties Of last century,
petftioned the first king Of the Bel
gians to be Joined to his new kingdom.
Although the Dutch Limburgers Of
the present day are said to have no
such desires, an influential section of
Belgian politicians clamored for the
annexation Of Lmburg to Belgium.
Also, to safeguard the future po-
ation Of Antwerp, the Belgian annex
ationists claimed the territory known
as Dutch Flanders, situated on the
sOutueTH Odnk OIL Inc 0CHelu1 estuary,
which the treaties named had also
given to Holland.
These territorial claims aroused a
storm of patriotic indignation in Hol-
land. Queen WiIhelmina visited the
disputed parts Of her dominions. and
there was a good deal Of flag waving
and shouting about dying in the last
ditch before giving up national ter
ritory. The situation was becoming
unpleasant. Coolheaded elements in
Holland realized that an estrangement
from the Belgian sister nation would
be fraught with disastrous onse-
quences. When a conference was
called by the five great powers to re-
consider the treaties OF 1889. a dele
cation Of eminent Dutch jurists came

CIVILIANS I'M
OCCUPIED AREA
BUY ARMY FOOD

Coblenz, June 21.-(Correspond-
ence Of the Associated Press)-Civil-
ians In the American occupied area
'of Germany have been buying nearly
a million marks worth Of food daily
during the last few weeks from the
United States army .suppliesA The
amount sold thus far totals A. 1000, 900
marks. Germans in Treves and Cob
LEM have organized a non-proit asso-
citation which deals with the inter-Al-
lied military commission on food, the
supplies being distributed to the on
sumner Through the retailers who are
allowed a limited profit on all sales.
Such staples as bacon, rice and
canned milk were at first sold to the
Germans by the commission of ex-
perts' reports that the poorer classes,
especially the women and children.
were in need of certain foods. Later,
when, thousands Of American soldiers
were homeward bound. the commits
sion decided to open certain stores Of
the army to the Germans, owing to
the fact that there was more food on
hand than the army had use for.
Much Of the food is brought to the
occupied area from the army depots
in France, the Germans buying at a
small profit to the American army,
plus the transportation charges from
the United States.
To date food valued at more than
forty million marks has been sold to
the civilians Of the American occupied
zone, all from army stores.
