Abe Martin Says: - MORAL SOLIDARITY ASKEDBY VIVIANY Makes Plea for Allied Unity in Solving Post-War Problems. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, April 12.—A plea for ~ moral solidarity among the allies in facing post-war problems. was made by Rene Viviani, former premier of France, before an audience that packed Carnegie Hall last night. . “One of the greatest dangers,” he said, “is that Germany may be led to think that there are differences among the allies.” His address, delivered in French, was on the occasion of an all-Amer- ican meeting. under the joint au- spices of twenty-six war relief and patriotic organizations, to extend greetings to him at the virtual ter- mination of his “mission of cour- tesy” to this country as envoy ex- traordinary of the French govern- ment. It rains alike on th’ just an’ th’ just awful. 5 Less wages an’ more taxes seems t’ be th’ order o’ th’ day. Copyright National Newspaper Service. - e WAR AVIATON AT ONLY S8 07 Statistics Now Show Air Service Spent Only About Half of Appropriation. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK. April 12.—Expenditures of the United States for the Army air service during the war, often placed by oritics of the service at more than $1,000,000,000, actually amounted to a net outlay of $598,090,781, it is shown in a letter from Maj. H. M. Hickam, chief of the information group in the air service, to the Aviation and Air- craft Journal. The letter, embraced in an article which that magazine will publish this week, declares that after two of settling claims, adjusting canceled cpntradts and liquidation, the air service has returned to the United States Treasury 64, appropriations made for gress. “The actual amounts appropriated for the Army air service during the war aggregated $1,687,054,758,” the article says. “From this total there were re- voked by Congress sums aggregating $487,000,000, making the total net amount available for expenditure by the War Department $1,200,054,758. “Until now the charge has been made and the public has been led to believe that most of this money was spent and largely wasted “The amount actually expended from the money appropriated for the War Department for the air service, in this country and abroad, during the war was $617.489,977. From this has been de- ducted $19,399,196, realized by sales of surplus material.” From July 1, 1917, to March 31, 1919, the period of war contracts, it adds, there was delivered to the Army 13,894 complete airplanes, with spare parts, and 41,953 aeronautical engines and spare parts. GERMAN COWS PLENTIFUL. American Relief Director Reports No More Needed. BERLIN, April 11.—Dr. Alonzo E. Taylor, chief of the division of re- search of the American relief admin- istration, who is here after having completed a tour of the areas receiv- ing American relief, declared today that in his opinion no more cows should be sent to Germany from the United States. “Germany has about 8.000,000 cows and feed for about 6,000,000,” Dr. Taylor said. “Because of the scar- city of fodder, the German cows are below the normal milk yield. What Germany needs {8 fodder, not co; Every additional cow is an embar- rassment. Last year 900,000 cows were killed in inspected abatioirs. “Those desiring to aid Germany's milk_production,” he added, “should contribute oil cake and other concen- trated feed.” SPECIAL NOTICES.

Tribute to America. “America presents to me a double aspect,” said M. Viviani, “that of tenderness, symbolized in American womanhood, which came to succor our bleeding country during the war, and that of virility, represented by the American soldiers.” L Then, as if addressing the Ameri- can soldiers, he added: “It was you who gave German militarism a slap. in the face. And it was before you that Germany knelt and begged for peace.” Speaking of France's claims for Ger- man reparations. he said: “Some have’cailed France imperial- istic—France. who has stood for de- mocracy since the idea_of democracy was first thought of; France, which has been invaded four times during a century, in which Paris was twice taken from our hands; France, whch has stood on the threshold of civiliza- tion and_stood almost single-handed for nearly a year against the mili- taristic hordes at the beginning of the war! Why, only a man like TLudendorff could make such ean ac- cusation.” Demands Full Reparation. *“France does not ask Germany to pay the cost of the war” he added, “but for reparations for damages done in the invaded departments: not in war operations, but in wanton de- struction of lives and property—even when she saw defeat staring her in the face. And when we ask that, we are told, Look at Germany. “My reply is: ‘Look at France.’ And. besides. did Germany look at Franc in 18707 *“France is resolved to make Ger- many pay.” he continued “And if all the world should forsake us in that demand, France isz still capable of coming out of this difficulty alone.” ROW OVER JEWISH RELIEF. Differences in Warsaw Threaten ‘Work in the Provinces. WARSAW, April 12.—Differences which have arisen between the local administration of the joint distribu- tion committee of American Jewish relief and a number of its employes threaten to interfere seriously with the relief work in the provinces, and may particularly affect the Jewish community during the Passover holi- da ‘The employes, who have declared a strike, also threaten to call out the committee’s workers in the provinces.

The authorities also were asked to protect any men employed in the work of taking the cargo out of the vessel's hold. Negotiations by the Munson Line, charterers of the Martha Washington. looking to a solution of the problem of unloading the ship proved fruit- lless, and the case was placed in the hands of William H. Robertson, Unit- ed States consular-general here. It is understood Mr. Robertson has re- ceived instructions from the State Department_authorizing him to make strong representations, and, if the port authorities refuse to act, it is regarded certain that a sharp protest will be made to the Argentine gov- ernment through the American em- bassy. Proposal Held Preposterous. When a representative of the Ship- ping Board called on Anso Quintana. rort administrator, yesterday, it is stated that Quintana replied by mak- ing a proposal that a solution of the difficulty be sought in the shippinz bhoard making concessions to the Port Workers' Union, and_to the ship's firemen, in whose behalf the union made demands on the Munson Line. The American representative replied that such a proposal was preposter- ous, and that no concedsions would be made. ailing to obtain a favorable reply to the request, the Americ ive reported the fac General Robertson, who, in t noon. called on the port administrator for the purpose of making the request as a direct representative of the United States government. The consul gen- eral failed, however, to find the admin- istrator in, and up to the close of busi- ness last night had not succeeded in arranging an intreview with him. May Tie Up Other Steamers. The Munson liner Huron is due here tomorrow, and is also under the union boycott. It appears, therefore, that she will find herself in the same posi- tion as the Martha Washington. It has been learned authoritatively that the position of American government representatives here has received full support from the State Department in Washington. Local American authori- ties insist that under no circumstances can a foreign labor union be permitted to dictate the settlement of controver- sies between the crew and the captain of an American ship, particularly one owned by the United States Shipping Board. It is said no conc any kind will, therefore, be made the Port_ Workers' Union. Other foreign steamship concerns are watching the outcome of the pres- ent case with interest, regarding it in the nature of a test case, which will guide them should similar difficulties with port workers be encountered.
