BRITISH REFUSE TO
RELEASE U. S. BOATS
(By United Presa to the Bend Bulletin)
LONDON, March 5. The British
prize court here has refused to
postpone the confiscation of the
steamers Kankakee, Hocking, and
Genessee, flying American flags. The
reason given for the refusal is the
allegedly German ownership of the
vessels.

(Continued from Page 1.)
He said that the United States does
not contemplate conquest, nor na
. tional aggrandizement.
Inauguration Warlike.
A hollow square of cavalry sur
rounded the President on his way
down Pennsylvania avenue. A se
cret service automobile, crowded with
armed guards, was also within the
square. A score of additional secret-
service men walked alongside
the presidential automobile. The
inauguration . was the most warlike
since that of Abraham Lincoln. The
weather was cold, a raw wind pre
vailing, and he President wore his
ht while speaking." -,
President Announced.
'As the' Presidential party passed
the flag-decked way, storms of cheers
followed them along the historic way.
fThe President frequently arose and,
fcat In hand, acknowledged the -acclamation
before entering to witness
the swearing-in of the Vice Presi
dent. Arriving at the capitol. President
and Mrs. Wilson and Vice President
and Mrs. Marshall were met by a
special committee of senators and
representatives and escorted to the
President's room and the Vice Pres
ident's room, both' just off the senate
chamber.
Immediately afterward they pro
ceeded under a distinguished escort
of congressmen to the senate cham
ber. Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Marshall
were escorted to a specially prepared
section of the senate gallery, to wit
Bess the ceremony of swearing-in
the Vice President and the new sen
ators. Custom forbids the floor of
the senate to women of all ranks.
Arriving at the senate chamber,
an attendent announced, "The Pres
ident of the United States." .
President Wilson entered and, pro
ceeding to the front of the chamber,
-was seated before the great marble
rostrum of the Vice President.
Here, Senator Saulsbury, of Dela
ware, President pro tempore of the
Senate, administered the oath of of
fice to the Vice President.
As the brief ceremony, which in
ducted her husband into the second
highest office the nation can accord,
was completed, Mrs.. Marshall, from
the gallery waved a tiny handker
chief down to the Vice President.
The Vice President then assumed
his chair as president of the Senate,
and in turn administered the oath of
fidelity to the incoming senators.
Cheers Greet -Middies.
Following the ceremonies in the
senate chamber, the President fol
lowed by the entire company, pro
ceeded to the east portico of the cap
itol, where the final swearing-in of
the President was to be held.
A vast expanse of flag-draped
stands completely covered the side
of the great building.
Wave after wave of applause swept
the stands as 1200 midshipmen from
the United States Naval Academy
swung up the avenue in close forma
tion. Uncle Sam's embryo Admir
als 400 more of them this year than
at President Wilson's first Inaugural
were In full uniform, their heavy
blue sea coats, brass buttons and
white gloves, presenting a striking
picture. And for sea-fighter's, they
found their "land legs" very well, as
line after line passed in perfect for
mation. . .
Coming abreast of the President's
stand, the middles saluted and re
ceived from President Wilson' a cord
ial acknowledgement. Mrs.- Wilson
and cabinet ladles with her, waved
their handkerchiefs enthusiastically.
The middles were followed by the
West Point cadet corps 700 strong
in full regimental regalia. Their
historic gray pea-jacket uniforms,
crossed over the chest with white
-straps, and the tall grenadier caps,
brought forth enthusiasm. Six. com

Onions at 15 cents a pound, potatoes at
10 cents a pound, bread, milk. ssks and
everything else going- up, aroused the Ire
of poor New York housewives to so great
a pitch that they destroyed pushcarts
loaded with potatoes and onions and de
scended on the city hall as a protest com
mittee to the mayor. They were met there
by the police reserves and checked, but
continued their demonstrations at evening
mass meetings, which denounced "capital
lam." Tlwy blamed this for their bav

richest city In the world. Thoro wero but

Joseph HartUan. city commissioner of
weights and measures, announced that he
was doing everything In hla power to stim
ulate the flow of foodsturfa Into the city
from all parts of the country.
Keports received by the commissioner In
dicate that the situation haa reached an
acute stage which, he says, calls for the
establishment by congress of "some sort
of food control commission to meet the
por capita consumption uf food In tho
United Blates."
While retail shopkeepers and pushcart
peddlers have been forced to bear the
brunt of the assaults of the angry house
wives, the bureuu of weights and meas
ures announced that "the abnormal ex.
porlatlon of foodaturfa and the subnormal
production are the underlying causes of
the advance In prices" It was anld. how

. Wilson Takes Oath.
Arriving on the Presidential stand,
the President, flanked by the Justices
of the supreme court, governors of
states, senators and representatives,
ambassadors and ministers plenipo
tentiary of foreign governments,
ranking officers of the landUnd nav
al forces of the United States and
members of his cabinet, received the
oath from Chief Justice White of
the supreme court.
From the President's appearance
until the assembled company was
seated and the chief Justice rose to
administer the-final ceremony, eon-4
tinuous applause swept around the
stand. Hundreds of thousands of
people massed the great plaza, over
flowing Into the capitol grounds in
a great sea of surging humanity.
As the President, however, facing
the chief Justice, repeated the words
permitted only to the nation's high
est, the applause seemed to die away.
and as the first citizen raised his
band in solemn assent, there was
silence among the thousands.
Crowd Breaks Reserve.
Soon, however, the crowd burst the
the leashes of reserve and as the
President stepped forward to deliver
his inaugural address his second
he was forced to pause to acknowl
edge the tribute.
Following his address, the Presi
dent, Mrs. Wilson, and the Vice Pres
ident and Mrs. Marshall returned
briskly to the White House, where
they were refreshed by a light lunch
eon before entering the reviewing
stand.
At the President's departure from
the capitol, the great procession start

Just Behold What
Will Replace Furs
AN APPEAL FOR THE
CHILDREN OF BELGIUMi
(By J. E. Werlein, Portland, Or.)
This Is an appeal on behalf of lit
tle children, and I want to reach:
The wheat growers east of the Cas
cade mountains,
The cowboys of the same district.
The fishermen of the rivers of Ore
gon, ' -',
The dairymen in the valleys west"
of the cascade mountains.
The mothers and fathers, and the
school children of every school dis
trict in the state.
I want to remind you wheat men
and cow men, dairymen and homo
builders of the unprecedented pros
perity that has been your's during
the yast two years, and to point out
that it is possible for you to enjoy
the good things of life, because ( and
for no other reason) of the most
awful war In the history of the world.
In the pathway of that contest
stood a little country which was un
fortunate enough to oppose the ad
vance of an invading army It was
Belgium.
Today the little children of Bel
gium 4,000,000 of them are pay
ing the price, Innocent, the children

HER EVENING WRAP.
Maize colored chiffon,' a long, wide scarf
of It, hemstitched on to a band of sold
metal cloth, makes this spring novelty for
maidens who dance. There Is any num
bar of coquettish ways of wearing It
Mm m ' i
of any wrong doing, but neverthe
less they pay.
Four million Belgian children are
hungry today. A large percentage of
them are starving, and will dlo re
gardless of the haste with which
money is raised and rushed to them
to bay food. . . -
But a larger percontago of thorn
can be saved.
Will you try to get this picture In
your minds? Imagine a long broad
line; every child in It Is hungry;
some of tbem are starving, and there
Is not enough food for all. An officer
comes down tho line. Ho examines
each child, and he separtes tho hun
gry from the starving, and the "hun
gry" are pulled out of the line,
screaming and kicking.
' Get that again. The "hungry" are
separated from tho "starving."
That Is a true picture, and It la
the basis of this appeal to all Ore
gonians who have received big pay
for their products sent to the war
zone.
We ask you to pay back a little
sum of money to send to theso chil
dren, so that all may have sufficient
food to keep them alive until the
war is over. We appeal for any sum
you wish to give, but send It quick
ly. All remittances should be made
to S. L. Eddy, care of tho Ladd A
Tllton bank, Portland, Oregon. It
will reach the committee In chnrge
of the Belgian Children's Food Fund,
and will be promptly forwarded.
The committee can keep a Belgian
child alive at a cost of $1 a month,
or a little over three cents a day.
One hundred dollars will feed 100
children ono month; $1000 will feed
1000 children one month. The chil
dren will only havo thrco slices of
bread with grease and a bowl of veg
etable soup, but It will sustain lira.
- I want to ask sopio blg-hcarted
fellow In every town wlioro my ap
peal Is printed to mad this appeal
and to then get right out and pans
the hat for contributions. Don't wait
for some other fellow to do It; do It
yourself.
I want to ak every school In Oro
gon to undertake tho support of as
many Bolginn children us the pupils
think they can care tor. A fund of
$5 a month from every school In
Oregon would bo caring for several
thousand hungry kiddles.
I urge every mayor, evory county
school superintendent, every commer
cial organization to help In this work,
Call meetings and organize to save
these innocent lives. Each commun
ity should go to work in its own
way, but all remittances should bo
sent to Mr. Eddy. Thoy will bo ac
knowledged, and full credit will be
given each town and city for what
It docs. Slncorely yours,
J. E. WEIILEIN,
Chairman Belgian Children's Food
Fund, Progressive Business Men's
Club, Portland, Oregon.
