As a, test of loyalty to the United Mats and to weed out and Identify it possible those of pro-German cym- Pathles in this community, every res ident of Castle Rock today was com pelled to pass before the flag and sa lute It. The demonstration was ar ranged by a committee of citizens. Not one person reused to pay hon or to the Stars and Stripes, and only one or two betrayed reluctance in giv ing the salute. As a result of today's patriotic, demonstration many . upon whom suspicion of disloyalty was fixed vindicated themselves. This is only the beginning of a move to eradicate pro-German and sediti ous talk in this community. At 2 P. m.all business houses were closed and every resident of f astlo anitmimitiimitiiiiiiHimmiiiiiiiiwimtmimiim nanners marcnea oy in parade, men, the band, led by Mayor O. K.

A decidedly favorable Impression has been' made upon the Swedish people by .the news that the United tttatea government has raised the embargo upon a long list of commodities great ly needed in this country It is regretted that food and other vital necessities are not In this list, but drugs, tobacco, clothing, hats and the like are most acceptable. Swedes take the common sense view that "something ls; better than nothing," and hope that this relaxation of the embargo may be the beginning of a more liberal American export policy all along the line. Rabid pro-German papers like the Aftonblad belittle the concessions as worthless, but other conservative or gans, notably the Svenska Dagsblad despite their pro-German sympathies see some gain to Sweden and agree that "drugs and tobacco are very wel come." The most important effect of the concessions at this time will be to strengthen the hands of the govern ment and assure its continued back ing by the neutral majority of the Swedish public In Its efforts to main tain commcrcjal relations with Am erica.
