London, 11:20 a, m.—The newspapers of Berlin con- tinue commenting today ' upon the recent diplomatic exchanges between the United States and Great Britain and Germany concerning the protec- tion of American shipping on the coast of the British Isles. Generally speaking they ize the American note Britain as too mild when compared with the note to Germany, but they make use of this note to support their ccntention that Great Britain is to blame for tha situation. The Kreuz Zeitung says: “The American note properly takes the British govern- ment to task for the contemptuous misuse of the American flag, a course which menaces the safety of neutral shipping. Therefore, it is more diffi- cult to understand what the American government wants of us. The Ger- man people will not be able to forget cither the questions addressed to us or the form of their asking. Our position has not changed in the slightest degree since February 4. The United States has two wavs to protect herself from harm. The first is.to stop Great Britain's misuse of the American flag, and the second is to keep her ships and people and con- traband of war out of the war zone. 1f she adopts this method she will not only avoid harm but bring a quick end to the war.” No Difference in Tone. “The Lokal Anzeiger savs: -“It s evident that the United States |is pressing the matter with the same forcibleness in London as in Berlin. The British have now been told fair and squarely that the entire responsi- bility is upon them if American lives or property are sacrificed through misuse of the flag. There is no dif. ference in the tone of the two notes.” On the other hand the Morgenpost hLas a different opinion, and calls the American note to Great Britain as notably different from the.German “in its-soft and flute-like tone.” Door of Escape.” The Tages Zeitung says that Upited States in its note to Britain, with “helpful care” leaves Fingland a ‘‘convenient door of cscape.” This paper says it does not understand why neutral powers will rot see they are sawing off the branch on which they sit when they do not protest with all means at their disposal at this disgrace of neutrality which foreshadows their destruction. Why do not the neutrals, with the TUnited States at their head, demand of all the warring parties that they follow the IL.ondon declaration in all its particulars? In that event the British North Sea blockade would be- come inoperative; the contraband Guestion would be controlled interna- tionally, and the course of action Germany intends to pursue after.Feb- ruary 18 would no longer be neces- sary, The United States should take this step,” the Tages Zeitung says in conclusion, “for the reason that the cxpressed purpose of the declaration of London is the protection of the rights of neutrals.” Threats Simply Ridiculous. Amsterdam, Feb. 15, via TLondon, | 1:50 p. m.—The Montag Zeitung of Berlin, according to a despatch reach- ing here from the German capital, in an article referring to the stand of the United States asks what harm Amer- ica can do to Germany. “She has no army,” this paper ., “and her fleet would not dare to approach near- er our shores than does the nglish. The expulsion of Germans from America would mean her ruin. Amer- ica's threats are simply ridiculous, and it is more ridiculous for us to take them in earnest.” 1 This paper says it is the intention of Emperor William to be at Cuxhav- en, on the North sea, on the 18th of February. chamc{er- to Great the Great HEARING TO “TIPPY” FAY.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1018. BELGIAN SITUATION WITHOUT PARALLEL Population tfllfiflna’dom Re- duced by .600,500. New York, I7eb. 15. ulation has been reduced by as a result of the war and her condi- tion presents a situation without. parellel in history, says a report is- sued last night by the Rockefeller IFoundation from its relief com- mission sent to mvestigate the effects of the war upon non-combatants. 1t is the first report from this commis- sion, which went to Belgium last No- vember. After detailing how micans of trans- war i portation communication and banking | cxchange have been destroved, com- merce and industry paralyzed, homes and other buildings laid low, the agr cultural districts devastated nd the food supply virtually cut off, vort saj “Yet, if one is to understand the Belgian problem, it is perhaps neces- sary to emphasize not the destitution of a few Hundred thousand, but the suddenly enforced inactivity of a strong and heglthy nation of 7,000,000. This is what makes the Belgian situs tion thing without parallel in his- tory."” After stating that there are 320,000 Belgian refugees in Holland and 100,- 000 in England, the report says that the number of peopic who are still in Belgium, but who have been driven out of tiheir homes, has not yet becn estimated. The army, it says, has drawn off 250,000 men. Stock Almost Gone. The destruction of stock is of great- er importance than the destruction of houses, the report declares. *“The country is pretty well cleaned of horses and oxen,” it continues. “The armies have not refrained entirely from requisitioning milch cows. The peasants are in the greatest terror that the few-animals that remain to them may be taken. They are, therefore, killing them and disposing of them for what they can get. Meat is selling abundantly at half its usual price in some places. If this process continues such localities will have no livestock of any sort by spring.” Regarding the agricultural situation the commission found that autumn planting had somehow been done, and that it is conceivable that Belgium may continue to raise most of her own potatoes, fruits' and fresh vegetables. “No one is calculating beyond the next harvest and such reckoning indicates that a harvest is expected,” the report says. “Everybody is trying to help everybody else.” Total is Enormous. In connection iwth the destruction of houses and property, the report says that no estimates can be obtained of the total,” either of the military requisitions and levies, or of the de- struction of property, but that this total must be enormous. The commission found that the de- struction of tools and implements can- not be estimated. In smaller places and in larger towns like Louvain and Malines, “where there was fighting or wholesale burning, it appears that nearly all remaining houses have been looted,” the report says. No Mail for Pcople. The population, the commission re- counts, is denied the use of the tele- graph and telephone and there is no mail or other means of communica- tion with the outside world, except through German channels. The col- lapse of the _banking exchange, the commission found to be due to :he fact that reserves of coin and negoti- able securities were removed in ad- vance of the invasion. Commerce and industry are at a standstill. The only tradespeople who do any business e those who sell foods and clothing. employees (railways, post office, ete.) are, therefore, either necessarily out of work or are striking against the German occupation. The report notes that some coal mincs, factories and shops are \vorking on shoxt time. TO AID UN MARRIED WIVES OF SOLDIERS Soidiers” and Saflors’ Familics’ Ag- sociation of London Form Meas- ure by Vote of Three to One. London, ¥eb., 15. (Correspondence The Associated Press)—The ques- tion of aiding financially the unmar- ried wives of soldiers was taken up and decided favorably by a vote of three to one at a general meeting of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Families’ Association held here. This form of illicit union is encouraged indirectly by army regulations against marry ing, and there are 1,350 such cases out of the 75,000 families enrolled in the books of the society. Aid is to be given, however, only where a real home is maintained by the woman. To help these unfortunates is not in view of the majority of the committee rmembers of the licensing of vice, as a rted by the minority. Speaking on the measure, Lord St. Audries said: ““As an old soldier, I deny the gross insult that soldiers are more immoral of than men of the same class in other | walks of life. If the soldier has not gone | through the form of marriage, it is the fault of the people of this country, who-«for a hundred vears have dis- ccuraged soldiers from marrying while serving because the separation allow- ance would come out of the taxpayers’ pockets. I do not care whether the council is techanically right or wrons, but I believe that in the judgment of the great majority of the people of this country they have acted in accord- ance with the (lutulls of Christianity and humanity.’ “Belgium's pop- | 600,000 | the re- All government | | Dr.¥ James’ Backache?

Phila. & St.Louis STATE ASSOCIATION FOR BELGIAN RELIEF To Be Formed at Mccting Tomorrow Forenoon at Chamber of Com- merce at New Haven. New Haven, Feb. 15.—A state Bel- gian relief association will be organ- ized at a meeting at the Chamber of Commerce rooms in this city, tomor- row forenoon, in response to a call issued by former Governor Simeon B. Baldwin and a special committee. TIts purpose will be to co-ordinate Bel- gian relicf work which is now going forward through individual effort in various parts of the state. Tt is antic- jipated that this co-ordination will make it possible to send a vessel from Connecticut to Belgium carrying supplies of fpod and clothing to the war sufferers. It will be announced tomorrow that Connecticut's contribution will be matched dollar for dollar from a foundation, the identity of which is vet to be revealed. It was with knowl- edge that Connecticut's work could be made more effective and its value measurably increased that the special committee, self-constituted for the purpose of issuing the call, has un- dertaken the preliminary work. The committee besides former Governor Baldwin are Insurance Com- missioner Burton Mansfield, Henry B. Sargent, Colonel I. M. Ullman and Eli Whitney. Endorsement is given by Prof. W. H. Taft, Prof. H.

A. Council held at the Bro’ld\\d_\ Cen- tral hotel Saturday night, when the resignation of Dr. G. Randolph Man- ning of New York president wu accepted without discussion.

M. . A's. Dr. Manning was behind this idea, but the majority of his sociates b lieved such clubs should not be pri ileged and should get their represen- tation in the ordinary way through local and state organizations. Dr. Manning, who was a prime fac- tor in the struggle to organize the U. S. F. A. two vears ago, will retain membership in the council as ex-pres- ident. John A.
