WASHINGTON, Aug. 31. (UP)
The um of shotguna by American
soldiers In the world war drew a
threat from Germany to execute
every prisoner captured with auch a,
weapon or with ahotgun ammunition,
it waa revealed last night by the state
department.
Despite this threat, the United
States assured Germany late in 1918
that It Intended to continue using
shotguns. The state department held
they were not forbidden by the
Bague convention, as Germany charg
ed. Moreover, the department threat
ened that If a single American soldier
were executed for possessing a shot
gun. or shells, the United Slates
would make "reprlsala."
Last of Volume
This quarrel over the legality of
shotgun In war revealed with the
publication of aupplement two, "for
eign relatione of the United States,
the world, 1818." This la the con
cluding volume of a series of diplo
matic papers exchanged between the
tat department ajod foreign govern
ments during tho war. It relates pri
marily to prisoners.
Aa In all wars, the book shows; the
United su.tee and Germany fre
quently mads charges and counter
Charges, through Swiss and Spanish
aipiomauo cnanneu, about the muc
treatment of prisoners.
In January 1818, the United States
font a note to Germany, through the
Spanish foreign office, declaring It
waa "deeply stirred" by reports that
American prisoners "are being treat
ed in a manner utterly opposed to
ins practice or clvlllued nations."
Such mistreatment, the note aald,
must be stopped.
Retaliation Hinted
The secretary of atate added that
the United States "could not but re
gard with alarm" the effect that
"inhuman treatment of American
-prisoners . . may exert on public
opinion in the United States," result
ing "in an almost certain demand"
(or "retaliatory measures" against
German prisoners.
Thereafter a spanlah neutral In
vestigated one of the German prison
camps containing Americana. He
found that "treatment and disci
pllne" were good, but that barracks
were uncomfortable and some petty
ojucer were iorced to work,
In July 1818 Germany complained
that Its prisoners were being finger
primeo. and measured like crmv
inala, The war department admitted
this, explaining these measures were
necessary for Identification, and did
not oppose Germany's threat to treat
American prlsonem similarly.
Agreed Toe Late
After - much correspondence, the
Potted States and Oermany agreed to
noid a conference on prisoners at
Berne, Switzerland. They reached an
agreement, but It wss not signed
Until Armistice day, November 11,
The documents also revealed that
during the war the French became
!ery much excited about the possi
bility of American soldiers marrying
French girls while having wives in
the United States. Ambassador Jus
arand took up the matter with the
state department and at hi request

Interesting Sandwiches,
An sm using definition of a eand
wlch is 'something dissimilar placed
between two similar things." How
ever, it tell Just
why sandwlchea
have grown Into
such popularity
The possibilities
are almost un
ending and from
the original use
for a quick lunch
their uae h
grown to Include
the d a I n 1 1 e a t
morael for tea
and a "dinner
sandwich" which
la almost a com
plete meal. Open-
faced sandwiches
are served
sandwlchea
a appetleera and aweet
replace confection.
The sandwich
idea la even used in
salad, meat and dessert arrangement,
thereby adding great varletj in ap
pearance and flavor to an otherwise
ordinary combination. Today we
shall outline suggestion for various
groups of the sandwich family.
Open-Face,
fllnce this form of sandwich Is par
ticularly decorative, and Its filling,
open to view it Is usually served as
an appetites or a light repast with
tea.
For appetisers, fish, finely chopped
meat, cheese, parsley, olives and pick
les are used generally. Highly sea
soned butters, mustard, paprika,
siloes of pickled onions, flowers of
cauliflower, etc., art commonly used
in the making of auch sandwiches
The various seed are also sprinkled
In or on the spread.
When served with tea, the filling
Is quit different and usually Is
sweet. The foundation may be cheese
but fruit or nuts are usually Includ
ed. Marmalade, jam, preserves, can
dled fruit, maraschino cherries, can
dles or preserved ginger, and so on.
am all suitable. filling materials. Com-:
blnatlons of sweet and sour, or spiced
with sweet ingredients are delicious
and interesting. Some of the most.
delightful flavors are obtained by just,
such combinations.
Open-face sandwiches should al
ways be smsll. They may actually
be quit unappetising If large and
awkward in appearance.
Rolled Sandwiched,
The bread is cut thin and length
wise of the loaf for rolled sandwiches.
A light apread, either sweet or spicy
as desired. Is applied and the crust
cut off so aa to allow smooth rolling.
The roll is then fsstened wtti tooth
picks and covered until ready to
serve. They may then be toasted or
decorated, aocordlnp to the type of
service desired. Tiny rolled sand
wiches are sometimes tied with a
baby -ribbon and served with ice
cream or so me other light dessert.
Lrge or heavy rolls are sliced and
then toasted on the flat sides.
O rilled or Toanted Jan dutches.
This type of sandwich is especially
good for a luncheon or late supper
dish. Almost anv type of aandwlch
may be toasted. The procedure ts to
spread the filling on the Inside, or
between, the butter being spread on
tha outside. Then toast lightly In a
toaster, grill or waffle Iron and serve
Immediately.
When bacon or thinly sliced meat
is used for filling, the meat is placed
a piece of toasted bread, sprin
kled with seasoning and toasted un
der the heat. A llttl muntard or
relish 1s added and the whole covered
with a second piece of toast.
As ltd sandwiches may be arranged
this way if the filling is improved by
little toasting.
ftalad Sandwlchea.
Place- a lettuce leaf on the buttered
bread, then add salad or a combina
tion inch as la used for salad. Some
times both rentable and meat or a
combination of fruits Is used. Add
the dressing and cover with anouher
lightly buttered piece of bread.
Hot fiandnlrhre.
These are usually the "dinner sand
wiches' mentioned above. A filling
of hot food, such as creamed fish.
meat or eggs Is served on toast with
toast cover and vegetable sarnUli.
Sometimes gravy is poured over all
and plain bread used.
Hthbon ffanrinlnhes.
The ribbon effect la obtained by
using varied fillings or light and dark
bread in the same sandwich. A favor
ite one Is made by slicing a white
loaf lengthwise in four slices and
placing an eg filling between the
first two. plmtento or tomato in the
second and parsley or reliih In be
tween the remaining sheet. Corer all
with a cream cheee pat and chili
Then slice crosswise to serve. An;
favorite combination of foods or col
ors may be substituted. I

Important Considerations
We feel that when the services of
a funerttl director are seeded, the
quality of his services and the fair
ness of his prices should be the only
consideration.
Social position, wealth, creed and
other factors, important in life,
dwindle into insignificance in the
face of this great need.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UP) The
nineteenth anniversary of the diplo
matic crisis which precipitated the
World War finds many American his
tori a ns in print with books exon
erating Oermany.
Upon the basis of post-war revel a
tions of documents a score of writ

instigator of the crisis.
. Barnes, Fay Defend Empire
"Germany Not Oullty In 1B14" Is
tbe title of a work by Prof. M. H
Cochran of the University of Mis
souri. Harry Elmer Barnes In his
three-edition 'Genesis of the World
War," and Prof. Sidney Pay. of Harv
ard, In his "Origins of the World
War," also defend the fallen empire
and its leaders.
'No person in authority waa guilty
of deliberately working to bring
about a general war," writes Pro
fessor Pay. "Germany did not plot a
European war, did not want one, and
made genuine, though too belated.
efforts to avert one. She waa the
victim of her alliance with Austria
and her own folly."
Austria Is Blamed
Pay believes Austria moat respon
sible, but has modified hla Judg
ment somewhat since LJuba Jovano
vltch, Serbian mllnlster of education
in 1914, revealed the Serbian cabinet
knew of the plot to assassinate the
Austrian arch duke three weeks be
fore he was killed and failed to ar
rest the assassins or warn Austria.
"The only direct and Immediate
responsibility falls upon Serbia.
Prance and Russia with the guilt
about equally divided," Barnes has
concluded. "Next in order fei be
low France and Russia would come
Austria. Finally we should place
England and Germany in the order
named, both being opposed to war
in the 1914 crisis."
Others Had Ambition
Barnes contends the ambition of
French leaders auch as Polncare to
regain Alsace-Lorraine, and the de
sire of Russian officials like Sazonov
and Ievolskl to gain the Straits, caus
ed them to make a World War of
what might have been only a Balkan

"The German lack of preparation
was notorious," wrote John Kenneth

MADRID (UP) With contracts
officially signed, construction of fiws
wsr transports snd tn gunboats for
roast puarcl um for Mexico Is expect
ed to beftln shortly In Spanish ship
yards. Heretofore Mexico has main
tslned only a small navy.
The tonnage- of the vessels will
total over 30,000 tons and will cost
approximately 70,000,000 gold, pesetas
(about $14,000,000), according to
Commodore Garcia Jurado, chief of a
naval mission sent from Mexico In
connection with the building of ths
crsft.
Many Companies Work
Commodore Jurado, In an Inter
view, said the transports and gun
boats, which will have a speed of 30
and 35 miles per haur respectively,
will be built at El Perrol, Valencia,
Cadiz, and Bilbao. Almost all the
naval construction companies in
Spain will participate in the work.
Besides the 16 vessels, two floating
docks are being built at the Carta
gena arsenal. One will be Installed
at Vera Cru and the other at Man
zanlllo, according to Commodore Ju
rado. "The construction companies," said
Jurado. "are detailing their best
technicians and spec la lists to super
vise the work In order to use this
contract as an opportunity for dem
onstrating the efficiency of Spanish
naval construction.
First or Program
' "The construction of these vessels
Is the first part of a naval program
by Mexico. The second part will pro
bably Include submarines and per
haps a cruiser. Among the eight
naval units which Mexico now pos
sesses, there la only one cruiser of
4000 tons."
Commodore Jurado said the group
of naval officers now In Spain 1
studying the Spanish fleet and the
navy yards. Some of the men also
witnessed the recent maneuvers of
the fleet In Balearic waters. All will
remain here for a year and a half,
specializing in technical aspects of
the marine.
