Holland's Sound Policy. Holland holds Java and her other outlying possesions, and maintains an Important overseas trade, with a navy of very moderate dimensions that ranks perhaps twelfth among the na tions. She has some submarines, and will Increase the number of her de stroyers and smaller protective craft. She has also an efficient army, based upon the principle of conscription or compulsory service. The ordinary field force of the Netherlands army amounts to about 150,000 men, while in the various reserves there are per haps 300,000 more. Holland has six million people, as agalnBt our one hundred million, and is not a warlike or militarized nation. But she could put 400,000 men into active service more readily than we could mobilize one-fourth as many, using our national guard and other possible Bources of supply. If we wore as well prepared relatively as Switzerland or Holland to defend our homeB, while continu ing to stand with them, as we now do, for the principles of Justice, honor and civilization in the world, we should have at least six million men trainee and equipped for military duty.

Washington, D. C. Diplomatic ne gotiations of various character Boon will confront the United States as the result of the expected intention of the German and Austrian governments to treat armed merchant ships of the en tente allies as war vessels after Feb ruary 29. Apparently it is certain that any attempt by the United States to change the present rule permitting the use of American ports by merchant ships armed for defensive purposes would be met by a strong protest. Correspondence also is likely to follow if the United States assumes a posi tion which coincides with that of Ger many and Austria regarding the right of submarines to sink armed ships without warning. On the other hand, the United States itself may take the initiative should the entente allies impose a virtual boycott on American ports in the event that this government decides that armed merchant ships entering American waters are ships of war, and therefore subject to internment. The view of at least some of the representatives of the entente allies here is that any change made in the rule bearing on submarine warfare during the war would be an unneutral act. The governments are represented as not being prepared to admit that there has been any change in the con ditions of naval warfare which would warrant characterizing merchant ships armed for defensive purposes as war-ships. In Teutonic quarters, however, it is contended that merchant ships armed for defensive purposes are really armed for resistance and that mer chant ships have no right to resist. Moreover, it is contended by Germany that it !b impossible to adhere to the principle of warning merchant ships, as, should they be armed, a single shell of small caliber could sink any submarine. American officials seem inclined to the view that the contentions of the German and Austrian governments are well founded, and from several quar ters came the information that the United States might warn its nationals to remain off merchant ships that are armed. This, it was said in German quarters, was precisely what the Ger man and Austrian governments have been aiming to achieve. The possibility of the entente allies putting into effect a practical boycott of American ports was widely dis cussed in official circles. The allies may permit only a sufficient number of their unarmed ships to enter American ports to take away merchandise and goods consigned to themselves. It was admitted in high official quarters tnat should such a plan be put into effect action might be taken.

Elm Leaf Beetle Worst Pest Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis. The elm leaf beetle, which has already become a serious pest in Mult nomah county, Oregon, and threatens to spread to other parts of the state, may be effectively controlled by lead arsenate spray applied to the foliage. The proper spray fairly applied at the right time to every portion of the in fested trees will hold the pest abso lutely in check, says A. L. Lovett, en tomologist at the Agricultural College. Commercial lead arsenate oaste should be used at the rate of three to five pounds of the paste to fifty gal lons of water. Two applications should be given, the first in the spring just as soon as the leaves are out well. This is to poison the beetles that have wintered over, which deposit the eggs. The second and most Important spray should be applied about three weeks after the first. This is to catch the young grubs just hatching and the re maining beetles. Great care should be taken to get this second spray on the under surface of the leaves, since this is where the grubs feed. Where these sprays are not applied an appli cation must be made in July to catch the pests of the second generation. SENATOR lANFS BILL WOULD PUT INDIANS ON OWN RESOURCES Washington, D. C. Senator Lane would abolish the Indian service, do away with Indian reservations make every Indian a full-fledged American citizen and give each Indian an allot ment on which to ' make his home. That accomplished, he would withdraw government support and throw the In. dians on their own responsibility as citizens. He embodied his ideas in a bill which he has introduced. The Lane bill puts an end to the Indian bureau and provides that a com mission of three, appointed by the President at $5000 each shall, under the exclusive direction of congress, work out the details of the plan pro posed. The bill makes no provision for the disposition of surplus lands in Indian reservations, nor does it provide for the disposition of tribal Indian funds in the treasury.

Adv. Glacial Drift To Stop Leak. University of Washington, Seattle. That the glacial drift material found at the site of the Cedar River dam, the head of the Seattle water system, made into a cement and placed over the 150 acres of ground on the slope below the dam at a depth of five inches will stop the leakage that has made useless the $150,000,000 dam, is the opinion of Arnold E. Osterberg, a senior chemical engineer at the uni versity. Mr. Osterberg began last week to carry on tests and experi ments to substantiate his plan. Seattle engineers and experts from the East who have examined the dam suggest a similar method of remedy, but they claim that it will be neces sary to import a large quantity of lime and other materials and also that the coating will have to be at least nine inches deep. They estimate the total cost at about one-half million dollars. Mr. Osterberg claims that the products of the dam can be used and that the expense will not be so great.

EASY WAY TO HEAL COMMON SKIN-TROUBLES A Baltimore doctor suggests this simple, but well-tried and inexpensive, home treatment for people suffering with eczema, ringworm, rashes and similar itching, burning skin troubles. of resinol ointment and a cake of res- inol soap. These are not at all expen sive. With the resinol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thor oughly, until they ere free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, spread on a thin layer of the resinol ointment, and cover with a light bandage, if necessary, to protect the clothing. This should be done twice a day. Usually the distressing itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin Boon becomes clear and healthy again unless the trouble is due to some serious internal disorder.

Vogler, president of the North west Auto Company, Reo distributors, says that the fundamentals on which carB are purchased by the majority of buyers who have analyzed the situa tion thoroughly before making a se lection, are based on four things that tliis class of purchaser insists on. The first question asked is how long has this model been on the market. Experience has taught the careful buyer that a first year model, regard less of who Is back of it. Is more or less of an experiment and the user ultimately pays for this experiment ing. When transmission Is located on the rear axle, experience has taught the buyer that this is a good thing to avoid because of the shocks it must get over ordinary and rough roads. A third point of vital importance in the experienced buyer's mind is ' the size and stability of the manufacturer. The experienced buyer wants a car that is backed by the personal respon sibility of some one individual who is not under the constant fear that if dividends are not of a given amount at the end of the season the position will be open for another man. Service is the fourth demand of the customer who has been through the mill. He must know frqm personal observation for his own satisfaction that repair parts are kept at the dis tributing point. Of course the finan cial and moral standing of the dealer selling the car Is of equal lniportauce. Portland Y.M. C. A. Auto School Day and night classes.

Big Guns Are Roaring Along Entire Western War Line London The whole western front is the scene of engagements. At some points the big guns have been roaring incessantly for days, the infantry have been engaged in hand-to-hand strug gles; grenade fighting and mining operations have played a prominent part in the battles, while airmen have fought each other above the lines and have been cannonaded from below by the anti-aircraft guns. The Germans followed up their re cent successes in Champagne by the capture of an additional half mile of trenches around Tahure, in that dis trict, and their artillery bombardments in the neighborhood of Massiges and Navorin have been answered in kind by the French. To the north of Soissons, around Terny, and along the river Aisne, the Germans started an infantry attack but the French put it down. To the south of the Somme the Germans en deavored to surround outpost trenches, but desisted under heavy fire of the French. Seventeen fights in the air is the record of Monday and- Tuesday re ported by the British along their lines in Flanders. In addition there has been great activity south of La Bassee canal, where the Germans exploded seven mines. Heavy bombardments and an infantry attack in that section also are reported, the Germans suc ceeding in entering a British trench. Ancona Claim Is Filed. New York Dr. Cecile L.

Coast Hop Prices Take ' Jump in London Market Portland More interest is being shown in the hop market than at any time since the recent deals were com pleted by the Oregon Hopgrowers' as sociation. Prices have not been ad vanced, but the market is on a very steady foundation. The sharp advance in the London market, cabled the first of the week, of 10 shillings a hundredweight, equal to about 21 cents a pound on Pacific, confirms advices lately received of the strengthening of the market abroad, due to a reduction of English stocks. Local exporters report no increase in orders from the other side, but antici pate an improved demand. The Bagley crop of 427 bales at Hillsboro was bought by the F. S. Johnson company. The price was not made public. The same firm bought 59 bales from Charles Leith, of Wood- burn, and a number of other lots at Woodburn, aggregating 200 bales, In cluding the crops of Whitney, Lemry, Crosby, McCormick, Dubois and Kil len. The prices of the Woodburn lots ranged from 9 to 10 cents. Apple Shipment Made. Hood River, Or. The first shipment of Hood River apples since Monday. January 81, left here this week.

Reports from growers in all parts of the valley intimate no damage, from the thawing of the snow. Local officials, however, have no en couragement as to exports of fruit for the coming season or for heavy sales of late export apples. The Fruit and Vegetable Producers and Distributors' joint committee, a London organiza tion, is now engaged in a gigantic campaign to educate English people to use only hdkne-grown vegetables and fruits. The local association has re ceived from London a circular letter, issued by the organization, which says: "This committee has obtained the support and co-operation of many kin dred associations keenly interested in the growth and distribution of British fruits and vegetables, and the joint committee is now actively engaged in advocating an increased consumption or theBe products."
