When appetites are capricious, there is special need for serving food in dainty, tempting fashion. Health experts agree that nourish- ing food is needed during hot weather as on cooler days. While we eat a smaller amount, the food value should be high. A meat sal- ad, for instance, is always tempt ing and it supplies protein, min- erals and other food elements which keep us up to par physically.

At 6. ". u. Reoroanized

Reorganization Of the George
Washington University Hatchet on
a permanent basis was announced
today by the university publications
committee after semester Of opera
tion Of the student weekly under .
provisional setup.
The new setup provides a consti.
tuition for the publication and places
supervision under the editorship Of
Bruce Skaygs, Sue Burnett and Ira
Brown, all Of whom served as editors
during the provisional period. There
is no editor in chief.
Reorganization was prompted pv
differences between university au-
thorities and those in control Of
the Hatchet and the feeling that
part-time students were too active
on the weekly to the detriment Of
their academic progress.
The new system, establishing q
Junior staff, senior stafY, sub-edi-
torial staff and board Of editors with
qualifications as to the number Of
semester hours necessary for par
t1cipation, was devised ito give the
fullest opportunity both to the full
time student and the part time stu
dent to benefit from participation
on the Hatchet."
In an editorial the Hatchet TODAY
approved the plan and indicated It
should do much to free the Hatchet
from domination by small groups"

the explanation they could not go
against the King.
II told Finland that they should
not rely on Swedish help in the
form Of military intervention" the
King declared yesterday.
With sorrow in my heart and
upon major consideration l came to
the comprehension that we in the
present position must keep this
standpoint"
King Gustaf indicated he feared
any direct move to aid Finland
would result in Sweden's being
drawn into the European conflicts.
Risk Of Two Wars.
II am absolutely sure that If
Sweden now intervened in Finland
we would run the risk of being in
volved in war not only with Russia,
but also in the war between the
great powers. and I cannot take the
responsibility" he said. .e
In a situation Of that kind it
most likely would be absolutely i'm
possible to give Finland the not
inconsiderable assistance which Fin
land now gets from us and greatly
needs and which we also for the
future are ready to give with warm
hands," the King added.
He pointed out that from the
beginning Of the Russian-F Finnish
War Sweden had helped her small
neighbor by permitting passage of
arms and volunteers.

for co-ordinating Turkeys armed
forces with the armies which Brit
ain and France are concentrating in
the Near East.
The two western allies, Joined
with Turkey in mutual aid accord,
are authoritatively reported to have
assembled total of some $4,000
men in Syria, Palestine, Egypt and
other Near Eastern areas.
Field Marshal Fevz Karmak Is
presiding over the war council.
For the past month, competent
sources disclosed, the Turkish army
has been in a state of gradual mo-
bilization. Three hundred thou
sand men were said to be arrayed
along the Russian frontier, three
times the normal border garrison.
The Turkish government has been
operating under special national de-
fense powers voted it by the Ma

first of a series of DEGREES invoking
powers of this national defense act
and since then further DEGREES have

The supreme war council meeting
finds Turkey ready for war should
it come. The national economy has
been gradually modified and mar
tial law has been applied in the
frontier districts.
Informed quarters disclosed that
President Ismet Inonu and the gen.

Greek and Bulgarian frontiers. The
Russian border already has been
inspected.
The French and British military
missions charged with coordination

battling for civilization against the
Red barbarians."
Ankara military sources reported
that hundreds of thousands more
troops, including the Czecho-Slovak
Legion now training in France

hipSale 10 Belgium,
Apparently Ends
Registry Row
Maritime Commission
Approves Tronsfer Of
Eight Idle Vessels

Sale Of eight United States Lines
ships to Belgium with the tacit ap-
proval Of the State Department ap-
parently has ended q row that broke
out over proposal to transfer the
vessels to Panama registry last fall
Secretary Of State Hull, whose OBJ
jections blocked transfer OF the
American ships to the Panama flag
as violation Of the spirit Of the Neu-
trality Act, said yesterday the Mari
time Commission had consulted the
State Department before approving
the transfer to Belgium.
Other officials explained the de-
partment had no objection to bona
fide transfer Of American ships to
foreign corporations and neutral
flags. The department means by
bona fide transfer, 1t was said, that
the foreign owners must assume at
least 60 per cent interest in the ves-
sells in order to relieve this Govern
ment Of any responsibility for the
property.
The sale of the eight ships to Bel
gium appeared to conform to these
conditions, it was said.
Fish Assails Approval.
However, Representative Fish, Re.
publican, Of New York charged that
approval of the sale involved "a
shocking violation of the letter and
spirit of the Neutrality Act" He
said the United States Lines had
retained an interest in the vessels
Oficials indicated this did not ex-
coed 40 per cent, however.
The eight vessels involved are
the President Harding, American
Merchant, American Banker, Amer
ican Importer, American Shipper
American Trader, American Farm
er and American Traveller. The
vessels had lain idle since with
drawal from transatlantic service
following passage Of the Neutrality
Act which forbids American vessels
to enter a wide combat area around
Northern Europe.
The ships will be taken over by
the Societe Maritime Anversoise, a
Belgian corporation. Negotiations
for the sale had been pending since
early last November, after collapse
of the proposal for transferring the
vessels to the Panama flag with the
United States Lines retaining own
ership.
Freighter Bids Asked.
Meanwhile, the Maritime Commits
sion announced it had invited bids
for the purchase of three Govern
ment-owned freighters-the Pipe
stone County, the West Imboden and
the Algic-which had been under
charter to the United States Lines.
The announcements concerning
ship sales came as Secretary Hull
said he believed constant acts and
statements by the American Re-
publics were resulting in gradually
increased respect for the Pan-Ameri-
can neutrality zone despite formal
refusal by Great Britain, France and
Germany to recognize the zone.
The American Governments now
are considering action in the case of
the German freighter Wakama,
scuttled last week within the neu-
trality zone of the coast of Brazil
when overtaken by a British war
ship. Mr.. Hull said each individual
case involving apparent violation OF
the zone would come up for con-
sideration by the American Re-
publics.

AItmork Naval Auxiliary,
Her Captain Admits
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GJOSS1NGFJORD, Norway, Feb
20.-While Norway, Germany and
Britain wrangled over the status
Of the German prison ship Alt
mark, the ships captain frankly
acknowledged his vessel served as
a German naval auxiliary.
In eulogizing the seven German
sailors killed when British sailors
boarded the Altmark Friday night
to remove British prisoners, Capt.
Heinrich Dau declared:
You were not of the German
Navy, but you served your country
bravely and venturesomely by Civ
ing that navy auxiliary service, by
supplying its needs far from home" i"
After speaking at funeral services
yesterday, Capt. Dau told news
men his ship was just outside Port
Arthur, Tex, with a cargo of oil
when the war started. The Alt
mark, he said, remained at sea
transferring fuel to Nazi raiders and
taking aboard Seamen taken from
destroyed British ships.
The Altmark's sailors who stood
knee-deep in snow around the
swastika- -draped coffins in a Nor
wegian graveyard at Hauge clearly
showed the effects of their long
months at sea. Their clothing was
tattered and torn, and few wore
anything resembling uniforms.
, In describing the attack on the
Altmark, Fourth Officer Jorchin
Wieshert said the Germans were
unarmed, but that the British
boarding party carried pistols, rifles
and machine guns.
German officers showed corre-
spondents the marks of about
dozen bullets on their ship.
The ships officers said the British
lined up many of the German sea-
men, apparently with the intention
of transferring them to British war
ships as prisoners, but changed
their minds at the last minute.
Before leaving the ship, the Ger
mans said, several British prisoners
thanked the Altmark's officers for
the treatment they had received.
