varfsre riven in the Lunianla rase
have not been modified by Its an
nounced intention to treat armed
enemy merchant ships at auxiliary
cruisers after midnight ton'ght, was
Lefore President Wilson and his
cabinet for consideration today.
The State department wss under
stood to feel that possibility of dlffl
cultle arising n the near future as
a result of the new German and Aus
trian policy ia more or less remote.
ferotary Lansing took with him to
the Whit Ho'iM a pouch understood to

othsr papers relative to this case.
If was Indicate In well Informed quar
ters that tha prssldsnt would Insist on a
strict Interpretation of the rules of In
ternational law as applying to Germany's
new submarine warfare.
Information forwarded from Berlin put,
porting to contain proof that the British
admiralty had instructed captalna of J
armed merchantmen to attack auhmarlnea
had not arrived, Mr. Lansing aald. The
delay was believed to be due to condi
tions resulting from the war.

State department on the communication
received yesterday from the Gorman am
baasador, I wish to say that the contents
of the communication have not been
made public by me, and that any state
ment aa to the views of the State depart

"I have made no comment and ex

ment. It waa said that merely the facta
were laid before the cabinet wKhotit any
effort being made to arrive at a decision.

KNIGHT PLEADS FOR
BIGGER SEA POWER
President of Sea War College Ai
erts Great Navy Only Way
' to Xeep Peace.
BELIEVES NATION MENACED
WASHINGTON', Feb. 29. The
United States is maintaining more
policies irritating to other countries
than any other nation In the world.
Rear Admiral Knight, president of
the navy war college, told tho house
naval committee today. In support of
his recommendation, that no time be
lost In building the strongest navy in
the world. To defend the Monroe
doctrine and control the Panama
canal, maintain an open door in
China and enforce Asiatic exclusion,
he said the fleet should be equal to
or greater than Oreat Britain's.
Other world events, the admiral de
clared, made It seem probable that at the
close of the European war various for
eign powers believing that these Ameri
can policies conflict with their Interests
might declare they would not longer ac
cept them.
Admiral Knights statements were
drawn out by Representative Callaway,
who Insisted he could see no danger to
Justify a race for naval aupremacy.
"Are we In any way menaced?' he de
manded. "In my opinion we are," said Admiral
Knight.
"How?"
"I wish to be excused from answering
this question."
"I would like to find somebody who
would answer It." ssld Itepresentatlve
Callaway. "Is the date of 19".. set for
completing this great fleet, the date
when this thing will break?"
"I don't believe it v lll break at all It
we prepare now," said the admiral.
To equal the British fleet by 1925 Ad
mlral Knight aald twerty dreadnaughts,
fifteen battle crulaers, twenty scout cruis
ers, seventy-five submarines and seventy
five destroyers wouli have to be added
to the present fleet. He thought Great
Britain would not regard an American
building program as clrected against It.
The present navy, he said, should be
eliminated In considering the possibilities
of any attack on the New England coast
because It lacked scou's and might easily
he drawn far southward by a feint, while
the real attack waa rrsde. For that rea
son, ha said, he wished to see at least
nine hattlecrulsera and eight acouts laid
down thla year.

THE VALUE OF; TRUTH
Tnith in business ia just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence, establishes good-will and
builds a reliability that will not be
Vrecked by the storms of competition.

The popularity of Scott's Emulsion

Hog Values Are
Higher Despite
Record Receipts
CHICAGO. III. Feh. 19 -A Jump of 10
cents In the price of hogs today aent
the market to I 90 a hundred pounds,
the highest In sixteen months. Accord
ing to veterans at the local stock yards
the "whole country Is going Into hoa
ralslng and more pork and bacon Is be
ing eaten today than ever before."
From the first of the year until yes
terday 2,150.000 hogs were received at the
Chicago yards, according to figuree com
piled today. This In an Increase of more
than half a million head over the simi
lar period of 1315. Tor the eleven princi
pal markets of the country the total
hog shipments from January 1, 1M, to
date is more than 7.100.000 as against
6,T00,Ofi0 for the same period In 1918. This.
It Is pointed out. Is in spite of the fact
that the Oerrran lard market la closed.
The extreme demand for pork created
by the war. the spreading of the knowl
edge of the profits of hog-ralalng and
the failure of last year's corn crop are
the causes to which the unusually heavy
hog shipments are attributed.

Tailored and Semi-Dress Hats For
the Spring of Nineteen Sixteen
Every Thompson-Bddca Hat Introduces a Parisian Ideal
The fashion of trimming high has done much
toward bringing toques and narrow brimmed hats
into favor for smart wear by accentuating their
importance.
An idea is a possessive when it has achieved
success and the Paris milliner is never slow to fol
low it up, devising new methods to obtain the re
quired effect. All shades of Blue from Ceil to
Carbeau are decidedly a la mode. As to color
combinations, one is struck by the various fetching
ways in which Copenhagen Blue is united with
black. Copenhagen ribbon trimmings are a crea
tion of charm, the underbrims of the hats faced
with black or Cobalt Blue.
It is, in fact, a captivating assembly of hats
in the accepted fashions for spring a medley of
styles reflecting the prevailing mode in its most
pleasing form.
