Food and Financial Problems Taken Up by British and French Washington, April 28. American officials to-day met members of the British and French commissions in the second day's series of conferences devoted entirely to discussing and de ciding definite problems of the war without the preliminary grouping aft er bases of mutual understanding. The day promised to develop rapid progress in the solution of what the United States is to do to aid the allied nations most efficiently in beat ing Germany. The morning was devoted to busi ness talks among Americans, British and French, behind closed doors at a number of government departments, with various experts paired off to work over particular phases assigned to each. Fo6d and financial problems loomed large as the conferences progressed and the former is dependent largely on America's ability to supply ships to keep a stream of supplies moving from this country to Europe, in this connection Germany's recent increas ing effectiveness with her submarine blockade was given serious consider ation, particularly by Foreign Mtn ister Balfour and the other British commissioners. t \ This Is the Birthday Anniversary of— ■ ■ F.

Twenty Men to Drive Forty Republic Trucks To take a large crew of men to the factory, if you're an automobile distributor, and drive home a tleet of the cars you represent, seems to oe quite the thing during these days of freightcar shortages. Next week 1. W. Hill and M. K. Thomson, of the l'enn Mar Motor Car Co., with twenty men, will leave here for Alma, Mich., the home of the Republic Truck. There, they will receive a consignment of forty Republic Trucks, which will be driven overland to Harrisburg. When the freight ear shortage be came acute, many dealers were pinch- | ed. I-ittie difficulty was experienced in selling cars but it has been prac tically impossible to make deliveries. Now distributors and dealers have hit upon the plan of going to the fac tory, getting their cars and driving home. In this incident; however, the : Republic boys are going one better. Twenty men for forty trucks is al most, if indeed, not altogether, a rec ord, and some discussion was caused in local automobile circles as to how it was going to be done. Finally, Mr. Dill conllded in a representative of the HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH that twenty of the trucks would be loaded on the other twenty and brought overland to be put into service in this territory.

German Minister Leaves Brazil For Uruguay By Associated Press Rio de Janeiro, April 28.—Adolf Pauli, German minister to Brazil, left Rio de Janeiro last night with his staff for Uruguay.

The Brazilian government has of fered to send Herr Pauli to a neutral port on board a Brazilian Lloyd liner, together with his staff and I all German consuls and their fam lilies.

RKLEASKS U. S.

Nothing contraband was found. 9 BRITISH OPEN SMASHING ATTACK [Continued From First l'Hge.] they can successfully cope within the northern section of the great battlefield, the French are keeping up a heavy artillery lire south from St. Quentin all around the curve in the lino into the Champagne. The French seemingly have com pleted -the count of the prisoners and booty taken in the recent fight ing on these fronts. They captured 175 cannon of all calibers, 412 machine guns and 119 trench guns. The prisoners total 20,780. llcrlin Frantic There are many signs that the fighting will shortly be resumed on a more terrific scale than ever be fore and not least ol' these omens are tho frantic appeals and threats being made by the German leaders and press to avert 'he menace of a general strike throughout Ger many. All the far-reaching power of the German cenship is unable to suppress the fact that the gravest discontent is seething in the ranks of the German workers and that the government is haunted by the fear that May day, the great in ternational Socialist holiday, may see an outbreak which will shake the whole imperial fabric. Strike Fever Spreads That the general strike planned by the Socialist radicals is not confined to Germany, but includes Austria- Hungary as well, is indicated by one of the rare dispatches which have come through from Vienna. The Arbeiter Zeitung, organ of the Aus trian Socialists, accepts it as granted that a strike will occur throughout the dual monarchy on May 1 and urges the workers to limit the dem onstration to that day and return to work on May 2. The situation in Germany appears to be that the empire is divided into three great factions, with the feeling between the three growing rapidly in bitterness. First comes the old junker class, which still talks of a victorious war ending in annexations and indemnities; second is the So cialist majority which is exerting all its influence to force the government into a declaration that it desires neither the money nor the land of Germany's foes; the third party is headed by the radical Socialists and includes an unknown but apparently considerable body of the workers, sick of the war, disheartened by the diminishing food rations and de manding that peace be obtained at once, whatever the cost. The only point in common between the three parties seems to be to make Chan cellor von Betlimann-Hollweg the target of all their shafts. Turkey For Peace The majority Socialists- appear to have the inner track at present. An incident of possible significance has occurred in connection with the visit of Talaat Bey, the Turkish vizier, to Berlin. After conferences with the Chancellor and Foreign Secretary Zimmerman the Turkish premier is quoted in a Berlin dispatch as say ing that Turkey was ready to make peace and desired no annexation. After days of disconcerting and dubious reports from Russia more reassuring information has been re ceived in regard to conditions there. A general scrapping of generals on the fighting lines has taken place and Minister of Justice Kerensky declares that the army is in better shape than ever before and resolute to continue the war. Police Dragnet Brings in Forty Men and Women Chicago, April 28.—Six of the forty men and women caught in the police dragnet faced examination to day- in connection with two holdups yesterday which netted a band of bank robbers $17,000.

Fifty armed detectives sur rounded the house and broke in, taking four men r.nd two women captive without tiring a shot. Quanti ties of nitroglycerine, dynamite, fuses and safe-blowers' tools are said to have been found in the houke. PROHIBITION IS WAR NECESSITY Waste of tGrain Needed For Food Supplies Principal Reason Washington, D. C.. April 28. Na tional prohibition of the manufacture and sale of liquor as a war measure will he urged upon President Wilson by an inter-partisan committee, repre senting every shade of political be lief, which will assemble in Wash ington next Monday. / A conference of Governors lias been called by Governor Nathaniel E. Har ris, of Georgia, to meet here on the same date to discuss plans for car- | rylng the fight before Congress and etitionlng for the. enactment of dry legislation. Acceptances already re ceived indicate that many State Ex ecutives will be on hand. It is prob able that some who arc not convinced the legislation would be wise will also attend. The urgent need for the increased production of food supplies and for conservating the food and grain al ready produced, is urged by the lead- 1 ers in this movement as a compelling reason for legislation to prevent the diversion of food material into the manufacture of intoxicanting liquors which will lower national efficiency.
