' AUSTRALIA PLANS POST-BELLUM TRADE Germany Will No Longer Be Factor in Her Commerce (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Melbourne, Australia, March 30.— The question of post-bellum trade, which is being considered by all the Entente Allies, is receiving its share of attention in Australia. The Federal parliament has already annulled certain metal contracts un- der which German concerns gathered supplies of ores from Australian mines and has entered largely into the con- duct of the mining industry in the commonwealth. It has furthermore set out to insure that smelting of native ores shall be done in Australia so that by the time the war is over the local smelting plants shall be independent of German works of the kind. The Federal government has also tackled the complicated question of patents held by German firms or individuals and has removed from them the pro- tection of the British crown on the principle that that protection bhad been abused: and certain firms de- clared to be “enemy firms” have been shut off from further business while others of suspected quasi-enemy char- acter have been obliged to purge themselves of reputed or proven Ger- man or Austrian influences, personal and monetary. But it ig being urged that private and individual steps in the directions indicted have so far amounted to al- most nothing, and that chambers of commerce and of manufacturers should enter more heartily 1nto the | campaign. Notwithstanding thero have been speeches, interviews and suggestions by business men of more or less prominence all over Australia and trade fairs and like affairs have been held to give point to the cry for “trade within the empire” and ‘home manufacture and consump- tion,” the net effect it is contended has been small. Recently the Sydney Chamber of Commerce adopted this resolution which may be taken as a falr example of action by other sim- ilar bodies in other parts of the Com- monwealth: Sydney’s Resolution. “That this chamber places on ord with a view to stimulating increasing production within the em- pire, and thereby to some extent cas- ing the enormous financial burdens forced upon us by the nations at pres- ent at war with us its desire to co- operate with any practical proposals for the encouragement of trade with- in the empire and believes that the imposition of a surtax on goods manufactured within the territories of such nations will be the most effec- | tive means to attain his end. “That the British and Australian | governments be urged to co-operate | with the manufacturing industries hy | establishing laboratories and centers | of sclentific Tesearch such to be avail- rec- and | HERE IS A COSTUME Built of deep ecru satin with a gored skirt tucked up harem fashion to match the finish of the peplum, this good looking costume gives a smart effect.

Then there is the matter of ship- ping with which in the case of Aus- tralia it is said a heavy blow could be dealt German commerce after the war should Britain, the British do- minions overseas and the Allies Great Britain resolve upon a policy of penalization.

The fact remains, however, that many parents give these beverages to their little folks and allow their use in older children at a time when physical and mental development is the most rapid. The drug, caffeine, in coffee and tea retards growth and interferes with school progress. Disturbances of eyesight, headaches, nervousness, irritability, indiges- tion and other ills appear in many, seemingly without cause, and the damage often occurs at the most impressionable period of life.

London, April 24.—The increasing clearness of the atmosphere in Lon- don is noticed by Professor F. J.
