TRADING WITH FOE ACT REACHES FINAL STAGES IN HOUSE

WASHINGTON. July 11. Debate on the administration's trading with the enemy bill neared the final stages in

the house today and its passage by tonight seemed assured. A new provision added to the bill in

lieu of that to empower the president to deal with all natives of enemy countries as "alien enemies" would provide that such designation shall be given citizens or subjects of enemy

countries.

The house eliminated a provision,

which would have made it unlawful to mail letters, pictures, maps and other

articles to enemy countries. Oppon

enta of the provision contended that

the espionage law fully covers the case.

PORTO RICO RED CROSS ADDS 1,200

6 AN JUAN. Porto Rico, July 11. Twelve hundred new members for the Red Cross is the record made by the membership committee of the Porto Rico Chapter of the American Red

Cross in San Juan during Red Cross

week. Though reports from committees working in other parts of the island have not yet come in, it is known that the work was almost as successful on a smaller scale elsewhere. There are now four thousand members of the Porto Rico Chapter In San Juan alone, and several hundred more in the other towns, with the number increasing every day. The Porto Rico Chapter is said here to be the first chapter of the American Red Cross to be organized outside of

continental Lnited States. The chart

er was not granted until May 1. two

months after cltizemhip had been con

f erred on the Porto Ricans by an act of Congress, and the recognition of

Porto Rico as a territory of the United States was the deciding factor in granting the charter. - . On aeeount of the newness of the organisation the campaign for members did not stop at the end of 'the

national Red Cross Week, but will con

tinue . until the maximum number is lecured. It is expected that 25,000 members will be obtained before the and of the campaign. Committees are at work In all of the large towns and lira being organized in the small ones. The campaign thus far has been

solely for membership, the funds collected coming from the initiation fees, but as soon as the enlisting movement Is well organized throughout the island, a campaign for. funds will begin. The Porto Ricans are displaying a remarkable spirit of patriotism. Their interest in the work and mission of the Red Cross is heightened because 5f the fact that Porto Rican troops already are in the United States service, ind because others soon will be called the colors.

American Breakfast

Urged For Europe - BORDEAUX, France, July 11. The American breakfast of ham and eggs, liver and bacon, beefsteak or other meat, vegetables and porridge, as a substitute for the meagre European morning meal, is recommended for France by Dr. Bergonie, professor of the Bordeaux Medical Faculty. Dr. Bergonie regards this substitution as one of the reforms most likely to relieve the economic situation, by providing rational nourishment and avoiding a great deal of waste. He bases his argument on the fact that man requires sustenance most at the beginning of the day when he is about to make his effort, whereas in Europe he takes his principal meal when his day's work is half through, when he is half tired out and is incapable of so digesting his meal as to give him proper support for the balance of the day's work.
