BERLIN. March 12-The German
charge d. affairs in London has hand
ed to Premier Lloyd George a note re-
garding the entente extradition list, 1t
was announced today. After insisting
that the imperial court will be guided
only by considerations of Justice and
will conduct an impartial inquiry the
note demands that the imprisonment
of arrested Germans In occupied ter
ritory on charges similar to those
enumerated in the extradition list
shall cease and that those arrested
shall be delivered to German courts
The release of Germans who for
similar reasons have been detained in
war prison camps also Is asked for.
The note finally demands that the al
lies abandon the reservations regard
ing their right to try for crimes com
mitted during the war many Germans
not mentioned in the list if encoun-
tered on allied territory saying that
incidents arising out of the war
should be concerned to oblivion with
the advent of peace.
Otherwise the note says a restora-
tion of normal relations between the
different nationalities is hardly CON.
ceivable and that the German govern
ment on It's part be obliged to take
measures with a view to the expiation
of punishable acts committed during
the war against Germans by allied
subjects.

No PLEDGE FOR
WOOD SAYS EDGE
Believes That General is Presi-
dental Timber, But Will
Pledge for no Candidate
VISITS TRENTON TODAY
Declares He Believes Delegates
Should Abide by Decision of
Voters on Coming Primaries
By Special CORRESPONDENT.

By Spectdt correspondent
TRENTON, March 12:-United
States Senator Edge today stated
that while he personally believes in
Wood as presidential timber, he will
not run at the April primaries next
month pledged TO the general or any
other candidate. He declared he be-
lieves the delegates should abide by
the decision of the voters at the COM
ing primaries.
PERSONALLY, l think Wood would
make very good candidate and a
very fine president" declared Senator
Edge. But l believe in following the
preferences of the voters expressed
by the primary vote, and, therefore,
do not wish to pledge myself to any
candidate in advance.
This attitude is at variance with
that of State Chairman f. C. Stokes,
who has pledged himself to the. gen
eral and has said all other candidates
for delegate should make known
their preferences.
Senator Edge remarked today that
he believed the state will be for
Wood. Mr.. Edge stopped off here
on his way to Washington and talk
ed a few minutes with State Treasur-
er Read and Chairman Stokes. He
expressed pleasure over the recent
harmony conference on the big four
and intimated there might be a good
story in how 1t came about but did
not go further.

WASHINGTON, March 12:-Dis-
regard by the navy department of
his recommendation with regard to
adoption of the convoy system was
described by Admiral Sims today as
infinitely more serious than its bear
ing on the war than other cases of
alleged inefficiency cited in previous
testimony before the senate investi-
eating committee.
were compelled by submarines to
adopt the convoy plan for protecting
shipping and that May ! he urgently
recomm ended that the United States
give it's cooperation, but it was not
until June 20 that Secretary Daniels
replied he considered American ves-
sells having armed guards We're safer
when sailing independently.
He said he again urged immediate
adoption of the convoy system and
stated his belief that arming mer.
chantmen did not offer sufficient safe
guard against submarine attacks. On
July / he received a cable outlining
an entirely new plan Of protecting
merchantships formulated in the de-
partment which he said was widely
at variance with the British and
French systems, and which he cabled
the department would be "funda-
mental military error resulting in di-
rect assistance to the enemy"
In answer the navy department sub
mitted another plan and asked that
he present it to the British admiralty,
He did SO and was told the proposal
had been tried out by the allies in
the war without success and that the
admiralty desired assurance of Amer
lean cooperation in the convoy plan
lso the first convoy might sail from
New York, July g.
About the same time Admiral Jelli-
coe wrote him expressing grave appre-
hension for the success of the convoy
system unless the United States de-
cided to participate.
Finally on July 22, the navy depart
ment accepted the convoy plan for
troop ships and later accepted 1t for
supply vessels, he testified, but only
after great pressure had beon brought
to bear by other allies and after many
valuable weeks had been wasted. AS
late as Aug. 10 he received messag ges
from the department asking that the
convoy system be explained, although
TO r"four months / had been exhaust
ling my vocabulary in explaining the
system. 1t is very difficult for me tc
make clear now the desperation in
which l found myself almost con-
stantly during the early months of the
war;" he said. / reiterate there was
no question that these recommends
tions were right. The fact remains
that they were virtually all adopted in
the end"

WILSON To ACT
IN COAL SPLIT
Will Make Effort to Compose
Differences Between Major

WASHINGTON, March 12:-An
effort to compose the differences be-
tween the majority and minority of
the bituminous coal commission will
be made by President Wilson.
Officials said that neither the ma
jority nor minority report would be
made public If there was a probabil-
ity of bringing the members to an
agreement on their principal differ
ences. the amount of the WACO ad-
vance and the hours of work.
John p. White, the miners repre-
sentative. refused to discuss the
recommendation In his minority re-
port but it was understood that he
had held for an increase in wages Of
approximately 35 per cent. and for a
seven-hour day. The majority, Henry
NJ. Robinson representing the public
and Rembrandt Peale, the operators
representative, recommended q wage
advance of rs per cent. and no
changes in hours and conditions of
work.
While the commission failed to
reach a unanimous decision asked for
by the President, It was said Its la
bors had not been In vain and officials
believe that the two conflicting re-
ports could be used as a basis for an
amicable agreement between the

ACTION ON ROADS
BYFREEHOLDERS
Active Preparations Now Under
Way for Repairing County
Highways, Badly Damaged
RESULT OF BIG STORMS
Work on Schedule of Repairs
to Roads That Will Cover the
Entire County, it is Planned
BIZ staff Correspondent.

BIZ STAFF Correspondent.
NEW BRUNSWICK, March r.
Active preparations are now under way
by the Board of Freeholders to make
the necessary repairs to county roads
damaged so severly during the recent
storms.
While the schedule of repairs for
the year have not vet been completed,
1t is expected that by next week the
board will be ready with their re-
pair program.
Bids were received two weeks ago
for furnishing and delivering of bitum-
nous road surfacing material and the
contract was awarded yesterday to the
Standard Bithuletic company at S19
per ton. 1t is expected that five hun
dred tons of this material will be used
during the year.
BY a resolution presented by Free
holder Clarence M. Haight bids are
to be requested for furnishing stone
for road repairs. Road Supervisor
Walter Quacl1enbush was authorized
to advertise for bids on the materials
required.
A complaint was before the board,
relative to the ice and snow along
the road leading from Metuchen to
Perth Amboy. This communication
was from the Perth Amboy Dry Dock
Company. who stated that very little
snow or ice has been removed and
that near Rogan's Corner, Public Ser
vice employees have cleared the trolley
tracks, leaving piles of ice at the side
of the road. Freeholder Haight was
instructed to investigate the matter.
Walter Masterson, master of the
workhouse was authorized to advertise
for supplies for the three month
period, ending June 80.
In anticipation of taxes for 1920
County Collector f. William Hilker
was empowered to borrow $4,000.
The note for which this amount is to
be borrowed will mature June 20.
County Farm Manager Charles B.
Herbert was granted O. bonus of
$25 per month, effective April 1.
An appropriation of $4,000, made
by the freeholders last year to assist
in building a storm sewer in High
land Park, is to be paid by County
Collector Hilker. Temporary i'm
provement notes were issued to pay
for this work and these notes will
now be retired by this payment.
The freeholders have been asked
to pay for slight damages done to a
Ford car belonging to Reckits, Inc,
which was run into by the truck
used for transporting workhouse
prisoners. Solicitor Richardson will
turn this claim over to the insurance
company.
The report of the annual audit of
books and vouchers of County Collec-
tor Hilker's office was read as made
by the Certified Audit Company of
America. This report was accepted
and will be published IN the county
papers and copy forwarded to the
commissioners of municipal accounts
at Trenton.
