ATURE OF
MESSAGES
STOCKHOLM, Sept. 11. Baron
Lowen, the Swedish minister to Argen
tina, will not be recalled, according to
statement made to the press tonight
by Admiral Llnlman, minister of for
elgn affairs.
The foreign minister told the news
papermen that Baron Lowen wat not
blamable for the tenor of the messages
which passed through the Swedish le
gation, sent by the German charge to
the Berlin foreign office, and as be
had acted In good faith and did not
know the contents of the dispatches
be would not be recalled.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11. Sweden's
acknowledgement that her diplomatic!
service acted ai a channel of commun
Icatlon between the Berlin foreign of
fice and Count Luxburg, German
charge In Argentina, but was Ignorant
of the contents of the dispatches, was
received by state department officials
without surprise, as was the declara
tion that steps would be taken to pre
vent a repetition ot the Incident.
But It was made clear that these
simple declarations will not be enough.
Swejlen, It is said. Is expected to go
further and correct the principle. Re
adjustment of the conditions bearing
on the situation must be extended. It
was said, until the allied powers feel
that certain military Information can
not be sent to the enemy from a neu
tral country where agents of the kai
ser may be taking advantage of the
diplomatic prlviliges of the Stockholm
foreign office and its representatives
Until officially advised, the state de
partment will take no official cogniz
ance ot Sweden's explanations and it Is
not Improbable that even then action
may be delayed until a concert of opin
ion among the allied governments can
be obtained.
It was sugested, however, that any
hestitatlon by Sweden to carry- reme
dial meaaures far enough might result
In representations by all the allied
powers. .,' i .
LONDON. Sept. 11. The following
statement from an authoritative
source, was made today with reference
to the revelations concerning Sweden.
"There Is no need for any action on
the part of the allies regarding the
Swedish exposure, nor is any action,
Joint or otherwise, contemplated. The
facts as narrated speak for themselves.
"This Is not a case ot any quarrel
on the part of the allies with the Swed
ish people, but of individual action by
Individual officials, which It is confi
dently expected will be strongly resent
ed by the Swedish people. There can
be no doubt that Sweden will take the
earliest opportunity to explain her po
sition, and this, it is hoped, will clear
the air and even lead to a better understanding."

weeks, many anxious mothers of ma
rines serving at the Philadelphia navy
yard have written to Major General
Barnett, of Marine Corps headquarters
here, asking if their sons were dead,
ill, or shipped abroad. The general
ordered a quiet Investigation to disco

have been so lavishly entertaining the
marines that they haven't had time
to write home.
Private residences and clubs in Phil

HOPES IL S.
WILL HELP
WASHINGTON, SepL . Price fix-
lng for meat and dairy products has
no place in the government's food con
trol plans, Herbert Hoover, the food
administrator, today, told the national
Livestock conference. Not only would
it be inadvisable to institute price fix
ing In these industries, he declared,
but the food administration has bo
such power.
As long as there is a heavy demand
for meat with a decreased production.
Mr. Hoover said, meat prices will con
tinue to soar. The hope of the food
administration is that It can stabilize
quotations and thus eliminate specula
tion, if
"I cannot believe there is a panacea
for a situation of this kind," said Mr.
Hoover. Our problem is to increase
production. The best we may expect
is a slow development towards the
ends we seek. Drastic control of pack
ing plants with government operation
an alternative, will not work. We can
administer food control only through
the co-operation of all interests con
cerned. "There is no power in the food bill
to fix prices and we never have asked
that power. Everywhere - In Europe,
price-fixing that is, the naming ot
maximum price has failed. We had
the fixing of wheat prices thrust upon
us, as it is our duty to purchase 30
per cent of the crop for export and we
had the wheat committee name the
price as a guarantee to producers and
to stop speculation.
"The meat situation is such that a
high price to producers is guaranteed
for many years. If war were to end .
suddenly, or if the submarines were to
be o'vercome, however, great stores of
wheat would be released in Argentina, .
Austria and India, and the bottom
would drop out of the market in this
country. These three nations will have
on hand soon enough wheat to feed
the world, but ships cannot be had to
transport it
"Beet and pork present different sit-.
uations. We export a small amount of
beef, relatively, but now we are over
exporting pork and It may become nec
essary to take measures to keep a
proper relation between the price of
corn and hogs. We want your advice
as to how this may be done.
"There is nothing tffat can be done
to stop the rise in meat prices if the
shortage continues, but if we stabilize
prices the rise will move at a contin
uous level. Producers must have a
price that will stimulate production
and must get that price, though there
can be no government guarantee, and
I see no way to bring about a volun
tary agreement as to the prices that
should be paid.
"I doubt if legislation to guarantee
producers a minimum price is wise,
and in meat I believe it Is impossible
to accomplish this."
Many of those attending the confer
ence expressed the opinion that prices
might he stabilized through central
ization ot the allies' purchasing.

to Medill McCormick, congressman-at-large
for Illinois, said:
"In everything connected with the
military arm, the Germans have shown
remarkable results, even genius. But
in dealing with questions of human na
ture they have repeatedly made mis
takes, which have been the salvation
of the entente allies. No mistake they
made will be so great In its conse
quences as that which drove the Unit
ed States into the war.
"The Germans lately," Mr. Bonar
Law continued, "have been saying that
the entente was relying on the United
Staes as their last hope. I want to
say to you that we do rely on the
United States.
"As chancellor ot the exchequer, I
am ready to say to you now what I
should have been sorry to have had to
say six months ago, namely, that with
out the United States' financial assist
ance the allies would have been in dis
