pTCII HUNGRY uDER EMBARGO

SAYS RAPPARD

pvoy Declares, However,

Economic Pressure Cannot Provoke War.

WASHINGTON, July 5. If the Unit-

States enforces a rigid embargo

Mnt Holland It will go bard with

Netherlands. All the neutrals are Toasly protesting to the State Dement against an export embargo

foodstuffs. Holland has made a

eclal appeal. Figures have been presented to esiden Wilson himself, purporting prove that Holland has sent twenive per ctnt. of her exports to Germy. The other 6eventy-five per nt. is going to England. This twenflve per cent. i-vlrtually .being reed by Gtrmany. . Hclland Can Fictht

"My country cannot be forced Into 1 war by economic pressure. But t one soldier of either side set foot h Dutch soil and it will be shown iat Holland can fight against ' overwhelming edds can fight a whole Intury for her liberties as she has !ne before. " T ; ' -" "Ours has been a most tremendous firden. Our people now are living i reduced rations. The Dutch work

man gets but a pitiful . allowance of read. Besides, we are feeding a Ullion rafufeee Belgians. More, when Uelglan Commission ran short of rain a while ago. Holland let them ave 70.000 bushels of the grain she crself needed so badly. ; "Tt is true, that the imports of Holind from the United States have increased since tho war. But our imiorts as a whole have been reduced tlmost 40 per cent. We got most of far grain before the war from Rumania and from Russia. -, Both those ources are closed now. Of course ur imports from you have increased, tut that has not meant an abnormal ' oply for us. ( Denies Illicit Trade fit is ridiculous to talk of a huge Vit ' trade with Germany. . Every Tlrspaper I get from home tells of I or two poor devils shot while ling to run the border guards. The rfler is so guarded that no consider"le business could be done across it. ;"Of course, we do some trade with srmany, but it is only one-third of exports we make to England. 5t is all very well for some perj to talk of compelling the neu,s to share in this war, but the nn who av that are three ttaou-

nd miles sway from the war. It is

A our very doors. We are bearing n hnrdAP of maintaininz a half

million men under arms and millions

of refugees in a country that is not elf-supporting. But we will not be

he first to make an attacK at arms. COCCHI EXONERATES POLICE

JAPS FRIENDLY TO DUTCH, SAYS JAP MINISTER

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, July 5. Asked if the relations between Holland and Japan had suffered at all during the war, the Japanese Minister at The Hague, K. Ochiai, declared in an interview: "The ; relations between the two countries have always been of a very intimate and friendly nature, and have lost none of their former cordiality during the war." The question was inspired by all the talk about Japanese ambitions respecting the Netherlands East Indies, and the concern occasionally aroused in Holland by the writings of certain Japanese jingoists. After assuring the Dutch people that the writings of the publicist Yusaburo Takekoshi, who advocates the seizure of the rich islands of Java and Sumatra. had found . no echo in the Land of the Rising Sun, where his publications indeed were sharply condemned, Japan's diplomatic represen

tative at The, Hague concluded by.

suggesting that experts should be appointed to study on the spot ways and means of improving commercial and shipping cornections' between Japan and the Netherlands East Indies.
