Anxious for Economic Talks.
The desire was expressed here to
get economic negotiations under way
at once for an extensive exchange
OF Russia's vast raw materials for
Germany's finished goods-barter
which apparently will go far beyond
the recently concluded economic
treaty.
This appeared to be the first of

hostilities between Germany and the
western powers.
A German delegation was reported
heading for Moscow next week to

OF INFORMATION FROM

nounced Saturday that instruc-
tons had been received from E.
S. Lofberg, assistant director of
operations in Jacksonville, that
all activities on the sewer prof.
ect must be brought to a close
on April Is, 1889.
1t is pointed out in Mr.. Lof-
berg's letter that copies of letters
from Malcolm J. Miller, field rep
resentative, and Ralph w. Lang
ley, regional engineer, attached
to his letter, are of the same ten
or.
Mr.. Lofberg's letter continues
with attention called to the adj
monition that no additional wa
ter or sewer pipe is to be pur-
chased from Federal funds for
this project and insofar as the
WPA is concerned the project
must be discontinued by April
Is.
In letter on the same subject
from Mr.. Langley to James Y.
Wilson, director of operations in
Jacksonville, contains these
words:
No more pipe of any kind will
be purchased for this project and
the project will be rescinded by
the Washington office on April
Is.
Between now and April Is we
are to complete work as far as
possible to put the sewage syS-
tenn in operating condition, but
whether the work is completed or
not, no ALLEGATION of funds is to
be made to this project after
April Is.
1T will be noticed from my re-
