RECALL ENVOYS: HOLLAND NEARS WAR WITH HUNS) German Minister Returns to Berlin, Dutch Ambassador to the Hague Sleep ohull Ui aavotisiuics pears to Have Been Taken by Nations Amsterdam, April 2 E rman minister the Netherlands has left the Hague tor Berlin and t the Dutch minist er to Germany on his way from Berlin to the Hague Washington in the Dark. Washington, D. C., April 24.—Wash- ington was without any official infor- mation tonight to throw light on the situation between Germany and Holl and and 0 and diplomats could only speculate on reports that Ger. many had delivered an ultimatum to | pment demand: | the Netherlands go ing the movement of war through Dutchy territory. supplies If the Amsterdam report that the} Dutch minister has departed for The | Hague and the German minister 1s] on his war to Berlin istrue, apparent: | ly the step short of breaking diplomat- ic relations has been taken. And a} rupture of relations is a step short of war. It is possible the ministers might have been recalled by their respective governments for conferences, though such a step hardly would be probable since it would be open to misinterpre- tation and likely to further aggraavte an already grave situation. OVERMAN BILL GIVEN SUPPORT ~ BY BOTH SIDES Debate Nearing Final Stage, With Chamberlain and Borah Champions Washington, D. C., April 25.—Sup- port for the Overman bill empowering the president to reorganize govern- ment departments came from both sides of the chamber today as the long drawn out debate neared the fin- al stage and proceeded under an agreement limiting speechmaking. Senator Chamberlain of Oregon, chairman of the military committee, for whose war cabinet and munitions director bills the pending measure virtually is a substitute, together with Senators Borah of Idaho and Nelson of Minnesota, republicans spoke for the bill. Senator Chamberlain, how- ever, limited his support by stating he would vote for an amendment to exempt the interstate commerce com- mssion and federal reserve board from executive action. ° For the administration, Senators Williams of Mississippi, Wolcott of Delaware, and others made spirited speeches in behalf of the bill. Which the senate is Working limits each senator to speeches of half an hour on the bill and twenty minutes on each amendment, and Senator Ov- erman tonight expressed hope of reaching a final vote by Saturday. Senators Chamberlain, Williams, Borah, and Nelson all scouted the sug- gestion thatthe powers proposed in the bill might be abused. Other leg- islation, Senator Nelson said, has conferred more “despotic” authority, while Senator Borah declared the pending measure would be helpful without permitting any permanent change in government organization. WADOO WANTS “NO LED-UP IN LOAN BATTLES Washington, D. C., April 25.—An- other plea for loyal campaign commit- tées not to stop working after com: munities reach their liberty loan sub- séfiption quotas went forth today from Secretary McAdoo prompted by re- etifring reports that workers in some towns are satisfied with 100 per cent. At the rate the country is subscr: irig thig week the loan will be slight- ly oversubscribed, but treasury offic- ials are hoping for a total of at least $53000,000,000. The aggregate of re- ports up to the opening of business to- day is $1,790,478,150 which is $132- 000,000 more than the total announced last night. The averaged daily sub- scriptions necessary until the end of the campaign are $120,000,000 to make the three billion, and $320,000,000 to make the fixe billion. The Minneapolis and St. Louis fed- eral reserve districts were officially reported tonight as having subscribed 103 and 102 percent respectively of their quotas, and headquarters recog- nized the claim of the St. Louis dis- trict of having gone over the top first. At 2:10 p. m. Monday the St. Loui- bank telegraphed banks of the district held in binding form $130,250,500 to cover the district’s. quota of $130,000,- 690 and it was not until 1:15 Tuesdav afternoon that the Minneapolis bank reported total subscriptions of $108,- ewe ah oversubscription of $3,641,- Governors of twelve states today wired Secretary McAdoo they either had or, would issie proclamations de- claring liberty day Friday a state holi- thé states are Illinois, day, Among SEES RSS Rene é i ® Ap + The Hetvolk | to} Wisconsin, Minnesota, California and North aDkota. , i Probably ten thousand communities in the country.now have exceeded their quotas, said the headquarters re- tonight.

SIGNAL CORPS REORGANIZED: RYAN IS HBAD Concentrated Control Necessary to Cure Ills of Short Pro- duction Washington, D. C 25, —Reor- ganiaztion of the army signal corps, with John D, Ryan of New York, cop- per magnate and financier as director or aircraft production, was announced last night by Secretary Baker Coffin Explains Throughout all the egitation over delays and mistakes in getting quanti- ty production of aiveraft under wa: critics lave agreed the great fault la in the absence of concentrated con- trol. The power of Mr. Coffin and his board was subjected to the sig- nal corps. Mr. Coffin himself made the only official comment on the reorganization. He said: “The appointment of a single in- dividual with definite and adequate power-to deal with all aspects of army aircraft production is a logical and necessary step.” This reorganization, forecast at the war department since before the sen- ate military committee made its re- port referring to the aviation program as a “humiliating failure,” follows a preliminary report from a special committee of investigators appoint- ed by President Wilson. The report known to have been submitted to ecretary Baker soon after his re- turn from Franze. New Plan Worked Out. Assistant Secretaries Crowell and Stettinius and Major General March, acting chief of staff, are understood to have worked out the new plan of organization. Mr, Crowell, as acting secretary, is said to have been ready to act without waiting for Mr. Bak- er’s return if the marshal report had heen received. The authority given Mr. Ryan, cor- respondents to that given Chas. M. Schwab as director general of the Em- ergency Fleet Corporation. He has the task of speeding up production in all of the many plants working on ireraft for the army and is given full power in that respect. Ryan Montana Man. President Wilson. is said to have had a hand personally in the selec- tion. Mr. Ryan is now president of the Anaecnds Conner Co., the United ‘ : end the Waukee & St. aul raliway. Brigadier General Kenly, chief of the military aeronautics division, re- turned from France, where he had charge of aviation under General Pershing. He is a colonel of field ar- tillery in the regular army, but was detailed to direct aviation training on the Mexican border, before the United States went to war. Soon after the first expeditionary forces went over he was sent to France and given the rank of brigadier general in the na- tional army. Major General Squier, chief signal officer, hereafter will devote himself exclusively to administration of th signal branch, and a new division of military aeronautics is created under the direction of Brigadier Wm. L, Ken- ly.

C. Townley, president of the Na- tional Nonpartisan League. The pe' tion was signed by the “executive board of the St. Paul trades and labor its advisory capacity, with Mr. R. chairman instead of memb assembly” as well as by league officers ; the statement declared. The petition is said to allege that the statements McGee recently made at Washington, before a congressional committee regarding pro-German ac- tivities in Minnesota were untrue and are sufficient cause for his removal. Governor Burnquist said that he had not yet received the petition. Glycerine Mixture .

SHALL NUMBER OF AMERICANS ARE PRISONERS Prussian Official Believes Only a Few Sammies Are Viring Line SOCIALIST DON’T AGREE Declares There Are More Men From United States Fight- ing Than Thought Amsterdam, April stag yesterday, Lieut. General Vonj tein, Prussian minister of war and state, said that 20,000 men wounded in the battle on the westefn front have already returned to their regi- ments, according to German news-| papers received here. He inferred | from the small number of Amerigans captured that not many Ameriéans had as yet been sent to the front line. Gustave Noske, socialist, said the number of Americans on the western front appeared, according to latest re ports, not as small] as the minister re- presented.
