BLACKLIST ISSUED
BY UNCLE SAM
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. — The first “trading with j
the enemy” blacklist to be issued by the United States.
government, was given out today. It starts out by black-1
listing 1(500 South American and Central American \
firms, which are believed to have German backing, Ger-!
man captal interested, or to be pro-German in their sym
pathies.
This is but the beginning and within a short time
several other blacklists will be issued making it an offense j
• rot lightly to be condoned to have dealings with many ,
other firms in most of the nations of the world. The
I'nited States itself harbors a number of companies and i
corporations which come under th'e classification of ;
'enemy firms.”
It is said that these lists will be surprisingly large
when completed.

COTTER’S
Broadway Seward
got a thrill when word was brought
in that an American soldier, captured
by the Germans, had escaped and had
reached the American lines. The man;
told a remarkable story of what had!
happened to him and of what he had!
seen.
It was soon discovered by officers, j
however, that the soldier was roman
cing and that he had never been In j
the hands of the Germans. It devel-j
oped that he had got lost from his |
company back of the lines, had been
unable to find it and had wandered'
around the country for several days.
He determined that the best way to
escape punishment was to tell the
story of his fictitious capture and
escape.

SHELL CASE OF FIRST
AMERICAN SHOT FIREI)
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. — The
shell case holding the first shot fired
by American artillery against the
Germans on the west front has been
brought to this country and present
ed to President Wilson by one of the
congresisonal party which returned
recently from a visit to the French
fiont. The shell is of French make
and was fired from one of the fam
ous French “seventy-fives”—one of j
the most effective guns in use in the,
world war. American artillery sup
plies were not on hand at the time
of the historic firing of the first shell.
It has not been announced whether
guns and ammunition from America
have been sent over vet, or not.

i no profit. If I did, I would have to add the
cost to other goods.
I do not ask 50 per cent profit to other
goods to sell some at cost in order to make
j! the public believe that I am giving them bar- I
gains. The size of the package or can will
