SHIPPING LOSS OF ALLIES WAS 803,000 TONS
British Naval Loss Amounted to 550,000 Tons During
War, Report Shows. (By Aaaoctated Press)
LONDON, March 4. The allied naval losses In the war azKrecrated
803,000 tons, according to an estimate sent by Reuters Paris correspondent. Of this loss the British, portion was
boo.ooo tons. The Central Powers lost 415.000 tons
but the German total, which was 330,000 tons, does not cover the huge tonnage surrendered under the armistice
. terms. Commenting upon these estimates,
the Westminster Gazette says that al though the figures given are not offl
clal, they may be taken as closely ap
proaching the naval losses suffered by the chief powers engaged in the war. "When we learn that In big Bhlps alone we sacrificed 13 battle ships, 3 battle cruisers and 25 cruisers," says the Gazette, "we get some idea of the
tremendous character of the effort that
was necessary to enable the navy to
emerge from the war vastly more pow erful than it was at the end of 1914."

Luxembourg Youths Lose Sweethearts to Yankees Luxembourg young men have found it necessary to guard the young girls of the duchy from losing their hearts to the Yankee soldiers, according to Sergt. Russell L. Cummins, who la with the army of occupation. "At Grevenmacher, a few days ago," he writes," "we were attracted by the Eound of a band which we first thought was a demonstration expressing pleasure at our arrival, but we later found
that it was a club of young men ad-
verusing a aance to do given Dy mem that evening. Well, evening came and we dolled up In our hob-nails and only uniform which used to be O. D. in color and went to the dance. There was the whole club of young men and two girls on the dance floor, which was part of a cafe. Outside was a crown of girls who refused to come in. Not a girl danced with an American soldier. Suddenly one of our lads who could read German noted a sign at the head of the cafe which explained the mystery. This Yank impetuously jumped up and tore the sign down. We had paid no particular attention to it because it was in German, but in a minute we were surrounded with excitement. The leaders of the club became angry enough to eat the soldiers. Some of them came up to a sergeant friend of mine, and demanded the arrest of the chap who had torn down the sign. Then came the illumination that the sign said: "The girls dancing here must not dance with American soldiers." "We gave the club the laugh, and they found little syspathy among the soldiers. We later found that the club is composed of young men who It seems have lost their sweethearts through their preference for American soldiers. This seems to be tho case throughout this country."

"It may be thought improper to impute motives to the president," said the statement, "but there are senators on both sides of the chamber who believe that the president's dogged refusal to summon congress, save when he pleases, is due to his desire to monopolize the center of the International stage and to use the megaphone of the Paris peace conference for presenting his appeal for a spurious league of peace."
