'PULLAR & NIVEN BERLIN REPUDIATES - ‘PARLEY PROPOSAL Makes Sweeping Denial It Asked for Discussion Berlin, Feb. 14, via London.—It is pbsolutely denied here that Germany in a note to the United States or through amy bthermedttim it 4nviting suggestions for the avoidance of actual svar. It is reiterated that the imperial government is not permitting doubts in any quarters regarding the position ac- tively assumed in the U-boat warfare and that there can 'be no talk or thought of recession from the program already being carried out. In view of this, it is declared in au- thoritative circles that any further parley or exchange of notes with the United States may be dismissed as un- warranted and improbable. The origin of the report is ascribed to the recent announcement, made through the Swiss government, that Germany was willlng to negotiate re- specting the amended treaty of 1799. No Comment From Swiss. ‘Washington, Feb. 14.-—The Swiss legation would make no comment last night on the report that the German government had denied that it had in- ¥lted suggestions from the United . . States ‘as to modifications of the U-boat + pampalgn which might avert actual ‘war between the Jniled States and Germany. An official of the legation who saw the dispatch from Berlin .peemed a little surprised, but said that there was nothing to be said, particu- larly until the story had received offi- elal verification. There was a possi- bility, he suggested, that the report might have been slightly garbled in gome way, and hence be misleading. It is considered quite plausible here, however, that Germany might wish to deny having madc overtures to this government in order to prevent herself from being placed in the position of = having her offer rejected, feeling that it had slighted her dignity. The inti- mation from the Swiss legation to the state department that she was willing | to receive suggestions was couched in such ambiguous term: indirect a way that it s open to o most any interpretlation she wished to | Her present denial would ! place on it. indicate that the ambiguity was stud- fed. & g ‘When the Swiss minister first im- parted the Berlin communication to this government he did it orally in a conference wth Secretary Lansing.” Tn order to place the matter on record, ‘Mr. Lansing then azked that he submit It in writing, which he did, anfl this government’s reply, sent by the secre- tary of state at the president's direc- tion, was also made in writing. ‘What concessions Berlin was actual- ly ready to make is not known, as the Bwiss minister w: evidently author= LESS THIS YEAR Board to Seek Appropriation of Only $14,980 An appropriation of $14,930 for the coming year will be asked by, the health board. This was decided upon at the regular monthly meeting of the board vesterday afternaon when tho budget was taken up for consideration. ' A vear ago the health department ap- propriation was $18,020, but this sum included the money to be spent for the new slaughter house which is now in operation. i Those present at the meeting were ' Superintendent T, E. Reeks, Chairman H. S. Tallard, Dr. G. H. Bodley, M. | W. Davenport, Dr. Henry T. Bray, M. H. Camp and Plumbing Inspector Thomas J. Quinlivan. Fred McEnroe acted as clerk. Superintendent Reeks read the proposed budget, including the following items: Garbage con- tract, $2,950; drugs and disinfectants, | $500; repairs to wagons, $500; office and laboratory $1,000; in-: cidentals, $600; printing, $500; tuber-! culosis work, $2,500; superintendent’s transportation, $600; plumbing inspec- ' tor’s transportation, $300; and slaugh- | ter hause maintenance, $500. On recommendation of the city comptrol- | ler it was deemed advisable to in- clude salaries, with the exception of that of the superintendent, in the budget. Fred McEnroe Promoted. Fred McEnroe was promoted to the position of sanitary inspector, made vacant by the death. of John T. O’Brien, who had been long in the employ of. the health department. Inspector John A. Dolan has been ad- vanced to Mr. McEnroe’s place and a new man at a salary of $780 per year, will be engaged to take Mr, Dolan's place. The other two positions carry salaries of $900 each. This year's salary list will include $1,200 for Slaughter House Inspector C. R. Witte. At present Dr. Witte receives $800 and made n so : i also took official notice of the death for part time work, but the board de- sires him to devote his entire atten- ! tion to the slaughter house, Favor Paonessa Resolution, The health board discussed favor-{ ably Alderman Paonessa’s resolution to prohibit children from rummaging about in public dumps and Dr. Reeks and the corporatian counsel will draft such an ordinance.
