TO FEEL NEUTRALS
WHO HELP BELGIUM
Koncombatants Get Needed
Grains in Return for Trans
portation of Food to Suf
fering Little Country.
(By AMoclated Press.)
Washington, Aug. 25. Belgium will
get food quickly and neutrals will
have some of their wants supplied
through an agreement entered into
today by the food commission and
the governments of the neutral Eu
ropean countries.
It was decided to let thirty or more
Dutch ships sail at once from an At
lantic port carrying grain owned by
the Netherlands government on con
dition that the greater part of the
cargoes shall be used for relief of the
Belgians.
Swap Wheat for Rye.
It was also announced that the
Swedish mission had sold at cost
552,000 bushels of wheat in this coun
try to the Belgian relief. The wheat,
which was bought by the Swedish
government last January and had
been in elevators ever since, will go
iorward immediately.
In return the Swedish government
will be allowed to ship 270,000 bush
els of rye of the new American crop,
which will be available in September
or October. Negotiations between
United States officials and represen
tatives of the neutrals have been in
progress for several weeks. Proposal
was followed by counter proposal un
til at one time it looked as if a work
ing agreement was an impossibility.
The needs of all the European neu
trals have been laid before the food
commission and complete statistics
furnished regarding supply, consump
tion, exports, imports, manufacture
and per capita requirements.
Norway Gives Ships for Food.
Norway's case has been presented
by the mission headed by Dr. Nanscn
and complete accord has been
reached, it is understood, regarding
commodities to go forward to that
country immediately. Norway needs
foodstuffs and has ships to barter and
jlic is willing to devote 1,000,000 tons
to the service of the United States if
she can get food in return; It is un
derstood that this offer in part has
been accepted.
One of the propositions made by
Holland was to turn over to the use
of the trade of the entente allies a
large share of her merchant fleet, on
condition that the ships go without
any such proviso. Holland main
tained that it would be almost com
mercial suicide to risk ner snips, as
it might cut off her immense colonial
trade.
, , One-Third for Holland.
Chevalier Van Rapoard, the Neth
erlands minister, presented the claims
and needs of his country and nego
tiated until the proposition finally
given him by Mr. Hoover was of

eign flag but with American charter
to engage in the coastwise trade.
What arrangement is to be made
to meet the needs of Switzerland and
Denmark could not be learned today,
but the general understanding is that
a certain amount of the old crop
wheat with some fats will be allowed
to thsee countries as well as to Nor
way, Sweden and Holland. .
In every case a promise is obtained
from the neutrals that no material
furnished them under this agreement
is to be re-exported to countries with
whom the allies are at war.

Congressman at U. 5. Camp in
France Steps in Way of Stray Bomb
(Rjr Associated I'rrsn.)
American Training Camp in France,
Aug. 25. Medill McCormick, con-grcssman-at-large
from Illinois, who
is visiting the American expeditionary
force here, had a narrow escape from
serious injury thU morning from the
explosion of a trench bomb inadvert
ently thrown in his direction by a
soldier practicing war maneuvers. M
McCormick was following closely at
the heels of a squad of trench "clean
ers" when the bomb exploded almost
at his feet, throwing stones and earth
about him.
The congressman's injuries, how
ever, consisted of nothing more than
scratches on his face. Later, accom
panied by Major General Sibert's aid,
the visitor toured the entire camp
and then returned to Paris. Mr. Mc
Cormick before his departure said
concerning his observations at the
American camp: "We have made, of
course, only a beginning, but a fine
beginning. The men are working in
sharo rivalry with their instructors, a
splendid division of Alpine chasseurs.
"Our troops ar enthusiastic and ex
tremely anxious to know the measure
of support they are receiving from the
people it home, without which they
know they can accomplish nothing.

of the new recruitj is astonishing.

such a nature that he advised the
Netherlands government to accept it.
The agreement is understood to pro
vide that one-third of the grain is for
Holland's own use and the remainder
for the Belgians. i
It is understood also the use of the
ships will be given this country both
by Norway and Holland for such
trade as does not conflict with United
States laws, thus releasing much
American and allied tonnage for the
carrying of munitions and troops.

What Senator Mason Says-
CHICAGO, ILL.
GENTLEMEN:
I have often said I would never recommend
medicine of any kind. I believe that the doctor's
place. However, after the hardest political cam
paign of my life, without a chance for a vacation,
I had been starting to court every morning with that
horrible tired feeling one cannot describe. I was
advised to try Nuxated Iron. As a pioneer in the
pure food and drug legislation, I was at first loath
to try an advertised remedy, but after advising with
my medical friends, I gave it a test. The results
have been so beneficial in my own case, I made
up my mind to let my friends know about it. and
you are at liberty to publish this statement if you
so desire. I am now 65 years of age and I
feel that a remedy which will build up the strength
and increase the power of endurance of one at my
age should be known to the world.
Yours very truly,
-J
S .
Senator Mason's statement in regard to
Nuxated Iron was shown to several physi
cians, who were requested to give their
opinions thereon.
Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physi
cian and Medical Author, said: "I heartily
endorse Senator Mnon'i statement in regard
to Nuxated Iron.. There can be no vigorous
Iron men without iron. Pallor means ane
mia. Anemia means iron deficiency. The
kin of anemic men and women is pale; the
flesh flabby; the muscles lack tone; the
brain fags and the memory fails, and often
they become weak, nervous, despondent and
melancholy.
If yon wish to preserve your youthful
vim and vigor to a rip old age, you munt
supply the iron daficiency in your food by
using some form of organic Iron Nuxated
Iron just as you would use salt when your
food has not enough salt."
Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr
ef the City of Chicago says: "I have taken
Nuxated Iron myself and experienced its
health-giving and strength-building effect,
and in the interest of publis welfare 1 feel
it my duty to make known the results of
its use. ' I am well past my threescore years
and want to say that I believe my own
great physical activity is largely due today
to my personal use of Nuxated Iron. From
my own experience with Nuxated Iron I
feel it is such a valuable remedy that it
ought to be used in every hospital and
prescribed by every physician in this
. country."
Dr. K. Saner, a Boston physician, who
has studied abrosd in great European medi
cal institutions, said: "Senator Maaon is
right. As I have said a hundred times
over, organic iron is the greatest of all
strength builders. ,

give him a preliminary examination for life
insurance. I was astonished to find him
with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty
snd as full ot vigor, vim and vitality as a
young man; in fact, a young man he really
was, notwithstanding his age. The secret,
he ssid, was taking organic iron Nuxated
Iran had filled him with renewed life. At
thirty he was in bad health; at forty -six
he was care-worn nad nearly all in. Now at
fifty, after taking Nuxated Iron, a miracle
of vitality and his face besming with the
buoyancy of youth. Iron is absolutely neces
sry to enable your blood to change your
food into living tissue. Without It, no mat
ter how much or what you eat, your food
merely passes through you without doing
you any good. You don't get the strength
out of it, and as a eonseqiirnce you become
weak, pale and sickly rooking, just like a
plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in
iron."
Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon
of St. Kliiabeth's Hospital. New York City,
said: "I have never, before given out any
medical information or advice for publica
tion, aa I ordinarily do not believe in it.
But in the case ot Nuxated Iron I feel I
would be remiss In my duty not to men
tion it I have taken it myself and given
it to my patients with most surprising and
satisfactory results. And those who wish
Quickly to inereate their strength, power and
endurance will find it a most remarkable
and wonderfully effective remedy."

From the Congressional Directory pub
lished by the United States Government
"Wm., E. Mason, Senator from Illinois,
was elected to the 60th Congress in 1887,
to the 61st Congress in 1891 defeated
fo the B2d Congress. 1892 elected Sena
tor to the SSth Congress, 1897 to 1903."
Senator Mason is now Congressman
fromvthw State of Illinois.
Senator Mason's championship of Pure
Food and Drug legislation, his fight for
the, rural free delivery system and his
strong advocacy of all bills favoring labor
and the rights of the masses as against
trusts and combines makes him a national
figure at Washington and endeared him
to the heart of the working man and
the great masses of people throughout the
United States. Senator Mason haa the.
distinction of being one ot the really big'
men of the nation. His strong endorse
ment of Nuasted Iron must convince any
intelligent thinking reader that it must
be a preparation of very great merit and
one which the Senator feels is bound to
be of great value to the masse of peo
ple everywhere, otherwise he could not
afford to lend hie name to it especially
after hi strong advocacy of pure food
and drugs legislation.
