TIOX IMPORTANT STORIES

The Kvenlng Herald regrets the
fact that telegraph lino troubles have
kvrlously Interfered recently with get
ting (omo Important news Items be
fore Its readers until a day late.
Tbn Kvenlng Herald employs the
most rxcnslve and'tho most reliable
wire fcervice obtainable, the Assoclat
cd I'rvss, and by this means can under
LrUlnnry circumstances provide the
residents of this section with authen
tic tit-counts of the world's events as
futt us they are circuited. When the
wires go down, however, tho paper Is
powerless io secure the reports. It
would seem that tlie poles between
Klamath Falls andi the coast cities
must be In a most VortuBatt. condi
tion, for twice during the present
week tho publication has been held
up until the last minute, holding
Kpuce for liuportaut dispatches, which
were lost on account of the wire
service. This handicap has been ex
perienced on numerous occasions
thmout the past winter.
It Is sincerely hoped that with the
stormy season passing this situation
may bo relieved, and that before an
other winter sots in the lines will bo
in Minpe to stand weather conditions.

WASHINGTON, D. C, March 22.
All Dutch shipping in Amoricuii wa
ters was ordered solsod last night In'
a proclamation by President Wilson.
The proclamation was Issuod after
the war trade board received word
from London that Holland had re
fused the American iiiitlmutum for a
transfer of the ships, according to the
original agreement, which (icrmany
blocked.
All Dutch shipping in Hrltlsli wa
ters Is being requisitioned simulta
neously.
Atiuioslmately seventy-seven ves-
els, with a tonnage estimated us high
aa 600,000, will bo added to the
American merchant marine. The ships
la' British waters -will add another
300,000 or 400,000 tons to the allied
tonnage. .
WASIIINCITON, D. C. March 22..
Secretary Daniels announced that the
naval order actually taking over the
ships went Into effect at 7:05 o'clock
Thru the bureau of navigation, the
department began several days ago to
concentrate at tho ports where the
ships are lying the nnvnt reservists
who aro to form the new crews. It Is
not exported that there will be enough
of these available to man completely
all the ships taken over, but fairly
complete flreroom and engine room
forces already have been electod, with
part of tho deck forces for most of the
ships.
Some of tbciDutch sailors will be
used, and others will be kept In this
country, If they wish, their wages be
ing paid by the United States govern
ment. Those who desire to return to
Holland will be transferred there as
fast aa accommodations can be found.
Final disposition of the tonnage al
lotted to this government will be a
matter for future conference between
the executive departments, it is
thought probable that tankers nt least
will bo added to tho naval supply no-
till.
