WHY THE NECESSITY OF THE EMBARGO?
l'KTItOllltAl), Oil. S. Afli-r n
ennforonre of threo linnm ininnluM'B of
tho govcrmnt'iu, InrliiiliiiK Premier
KoreiiHky, with h ilcli'KUtlnn repre
senting tho ileinoenitie connross anil
with represent tit lveH of the liourKolso
yesterday, n compli'lo agreement was
renehed on all questions. Tho pre
mier (leilareil that the Rnvornmonl
purposed Immediately to form a com
plete culiitict bo that, the reconstruct
ed coalition goNernmeut nilylit l't
nlilo to Bo to work at onco on the
hasis laid down.
Till' l.nlish embargo upon nil shipping to iieuirnls,
.supplement in!; iind roniplel ini; Ihe American em
liareo, is designed to stun the traffic between icrmanv
;iiid (lit! neutrals, wlicreliy the ficrmaii army is hcing fed
liy the neutrals, who have made good the shortage, thereby
incurred hy imports from America. It may seem a stern
and harsh measure, hut such measures are necessary if
tiormniiy is to he defeated.
The ease of Holland may he cited as typical of the rela
tions exist iiir, between (iermany and Denmark, Sweden,
Norway and Switzerland. A Dutch commission, headed
by Joost, Yon Vollenhaven, has been striving for a release
of the embargo, as' have similar commissions from the
other neutrals, and his efforts have been a failure, for the
following reasons:
Under the trade agreement existing between OVrinany
and Holland, Holland is supplying (iermany with large
proportions of food fats'. (Jermany has demanded and re
ceived at least 12 ii per cent of all the milk exported from
Tolland, 75 percent of the total butter exports, two-thirds
of the cheese exports, 50 per cent of the pork and sausage,
meats and livestock exports, including the Belgian relief
supplies, 75 per cent of the fresh vegetables, fruit, mar
nielade, poultry and eggs.
Before the war, f iermany got one-third of Dutch mut
ton and beef exports; in 1915 nhe took three-fourths and
in If) 1(5. four-fifths. From November. 191(1 to April, 1917,
L'7,551 tons of fresh meat went from Holland to (iermany,
as against i:i tons sent to England altho before the war
Kngland took an average of 25,000 tons annually against
C000 tons sent (iermany.
Holland declares she must comply with fierinan de
mands in order to receive coal, and actually shipped pota
toes, eggs and meat this fall when her own people were
short of these products, thereby precipitating rioting and
disorder. It is figured by experts that total food for
1,1200,000 German soldiers for a year was shipped from
Holland in 191f! to (iermany enough to supply most of
the troops tin the western front where Germans are fight
ing Americans. "
It is easy to see why the embargo has been placed on
neutrals, to force them to feed themselves instead of (ier
many. It would he suicidal to permit America to feed the
neutrals, who are feeding the nation's enemies. The
sooner these supplies are cut off the quicker will come the
exjiaustion ol: Uermaiiv and the war's end.
AN INSIGHT INTO GERMANY
ROSIER OF SOLDIERS
AIM M.F.&H.C0.
The Medford Furniture and Hard
ware company will establish 11 mili
tary bulletin hoard In their store
where the names, company, reuhneni,
address as near as possible - of
every soldier from .lacUson couuly
will be shown at all times. The ros
ter w ill bo of urmt convenient e ttt the
public and will be a novel and nuiiiuo
affair.
The company has a Kieat deal of
this data now but is anxious to have
tho pureuls or other relatives of
every one in the service send In their
Dames, etc., at otite, that the tester
may bo up-to-date.
A B K.rAl KAT5LE book giving an insight into Ger-
- many lias been published by the Mac, Milieu Com
pany. It consists of letters written to Mrs. Alice Chol
niondeley by her daughter Christine, who went to Berlin
to study music in May, 1914, under a master of the violin.
She became engaged to a German armv officer, but noon
the outbreak of the war her romance ended when officials
forbid his marriage to an enemy woman. She later died,
friendless anil alone in a Berlin hospital.
The letters describe the spirit of the German people
before the wars outbreak. The author found them con
stantly talking of war. filled with a lust for loot and blood
and groveling before their superiors. She found even staid
college professors and matronly women shrieking, cheer
ing and prostrating themselves every time a royal prince
ling appeared. Her violin teacher is quoted as' giving the
following searching analysis of German 'character:
"Wo aro still bo near, ns n nation, to the child and to tho snvaeo
To tho clever child and the powerful savnso. Wo Iiko ainiplo and gross
emotions anil plenty of them; obvious tastes In our food and our pleas
ures: rat In en i food and fat In our women. And, like tho child, when
wo mourn wo mourn to excess, and enjoy ourselves In that excess; anil,
like the savam wo are afraid, and therefore hedwe ourselves nbout with
observances, celebrations, cannon, kinsa.
In un other country Is thero mora than one kinc In ours wo find
threo and an emperor necessary.
Tho savaae who fears all tbinss tines not fenr more than wc Ger
mans. Wo fear other nations, wo fear other people, wo fear public
opinion to an extent Incredible; we fear our own manners.
He adds the only person they do not fear is God. Here
is a picture of a war mob:
The public is that shontln, perspiring mob out thero wnlchinK tho
soldiers, anil l'rau Hoik and her boarders aro Iho public, and so aro tho
soldiers themselves. The public here aro all the people who obey, nod
pay, and don't know; an immense multitude, of slaves abject. Kreedy and
Pitiful. 1 don't think I ever could have Imnslned a thltiR so pit
iful to see as these respectable midillc-aued llerlill citizens, fathers of
I families, careful livers on small Inc omes, clerks, pastors, teachers, pro-
tessors, drunk and mad out there publicly on the pavement, danciiiK
with Joy because thev think the crent moment tbey'vo been taught to
wait for has come and they're nolns to act suddenly rich.
In the following is a hint of what has to be done to
bring the Germans to their senses, why air raid reprisals
are necessary, why barbarism must be practiced because it
is the only treatment they can understand:
11 ls 1 ' l think of the fearof Hod havlim to be kicked Into any
body, but I believe with Prussians It is the other way. They understand
kicks. They respect btnie sirennth exorcised brutally. 1 tan hear their
roar of derision if ChrM were to come atnotiK them today with His
ttntle "Utile children, love one another.

Even in these days of
higher prices, $25 buys a
good suit. $1,000,000 would
buy such suits for 40,000 of
you men. That would be
a satisfying way to please
40,000 of you. But
There's a $1,000,000 or
more we spend that
pleases many times 40,000
smokers. It's the $1,000,000
we spend to "sureify" the
mellow fragrance of your
OWL Cigar. Let us tell
you how.
To make sure that every
OWL Cigar will always be
mellow and fragrant re
quires that a great store of
selected leaf be constantly
curing. For it takes more
than a year for OWL leaf
to reach the OWL "ready
point" of fragrance. This
reserve-leaf supply always
totals in value $1,000,000.
And sometimes more. But
'it's $1,000,000 well spent.
An OWL Cigar will tell
you so when you test its
mellow fragrance. At the
nearest cigar store and
the cost is but 5c.
