NO LIQUIDATION
OFU.S. HOLDINGS,
SAYS DELBRUECK
BERLIN, August 6. (By Asso
ciated Press.) —Germany has not
liquidated American private or busi
ness property, Clemens \on Del
brueck, acting Minister of Justice,
told the Associated Press correspond
nnt today. He declared that Ger
many did, on March 4, 1918, issue
a ruling whereby the liquidation was
permitted because America already
had done the same.
While America carried out this
liquidation measure, the minister said
that Germany never did so, but on
the contrary, merely regulated and
administered American property.
“When this administration is remov
ed the Americans will have their free
property again,” said Her. ' on Del- ,
brueck
“In no single ease has Germany
touched or violated American trade
marks,” continued the minister. In
the rase of patents we distributed
licenses tor their use by Germans in
five eases but we never declared
American patents null or void.
“American patents and trade
marks might be limited in Germany
by an act of January 3, 1918, if it
lay in the public interest and a Ger
man could have, under certain cir
cumstances a license to use an Am
erican patent. This order was is
sued because America, long before
had passed a similar law and operat
ed tjn general. Germany was par
ticularly hesitating in all these ques
tions notwithstanding America pass
ed a pretentious ’:.w of this kind, <
becau-e G ?rmany hoped to be able i
soon to resume friendly business re
lations with the United States.”
The Ministry of Justice quoted A. I
Mitchell Palmer, former Alien Prop- '
eryt Custodian of America, as having !
declared in his report to the United 1
States senate in February last that
Germany had done the same as Am
erica in liquidating alien property
but had always been a little ahead
of America in doing so.
“It is false to say Ihat Germany
preceeded America and correct to
say that Germany only used retalia
tion,” said the minister. ,
GROCER UP AGAINST IT
“I have been up against it for past
3 years suffering from pain in my >
stomach and side until I was con
sidering giving up my grocery busi
ness. Doctors and medicin e did not
help me. I heard of Mayr’s Won
derful Remedy through a friend in
Buffalo. The first dose gave me more
benefit- than all the medicine I had
taken before and am now’ feeling
as well as ever in my life.” It is a

ITALIAN FOOD RIOTS
STUDIED BY BRITISH
LONDON, August 6. (By Asso
ciated Press.) —Th e food riots in
Italy and agitations elsewher e on the
Continent are focusing attention on
the continued increase in the prices
of food and clothing in this coun
try. Public feling, judged by pro
testing letters to the press and the
talk one hears in restaurants and
private homes, is mounting to the
point of extreme indignation.
News papers are devoting much
space to this subject and warning the
government that unless it takes ac
tion to curb profiteering, trouble may
b<> expected this winter. Th e gov
ernment’s recent announcement that
its present modified food control
would be continued at least through
the winter does not appear to have
appeased the public, and the demand
is widely made for a return to the
strict wartime regulations.
There is great discontent among
small househoulders. One writes to
a London paper complaining of high
fruit and declaring ‘those who buy
and sell seem to have gone mad
jn their get-rich-quick craze and their
impertinence in what they charge th e
public is something gross.”
The same writer, discussing the
“extortion on clothing,” quotes the
announcement made in the House of
Commons the other day that the high
price of woolen garments is not due
to short supplies or government
charges, and that the stocks of wool
in this country ar e th e greatest ever
known.
“If that is so,” the writer com
ments, “why are all woolen goods
famine prices, and why does a man’s
suit of clothes cost anything from
eight to eighteen guineas (S4O to
S9O) ? Why is the profiteering al
lowed ?
The Ministry of Munitions officials
who made the announcement regard
ing woo] said that the bulk of the
responsibility for the high prices of
woolen goods lay between th e man
who makes the cloth and the dealer.
H e said the government was consider
ing action to prevent profiteering.

In a statement made at his training

of Nuxated Iron for building up the blood,

ing the body lit, and I am firmly convinced
that its use has helped to wonderfully in
crease my stamina and endurance. Nuxated
Iron put added power behind my punch and
helped me to accomplish what I did at
Toledo. From the results in my own case
where the possession of super endurance is
necessary, I feel that I am in a position to
strongly recommend Nuxa’ed Iron to every
man and woman who wants to build greater
strength, energy and power.”
In connection with the foregoing state
ment made by Jack Dempsey, Dr. James
Francis Sullivan, formerly physician of
Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New
York, and the Westchester County Hospital,
said: “The methods of training adopted by
Willard and Dempsey may have had a great
deal to do with the outcome of this light.

should play a part in getting
Dcmr«cy into con !i:ion is to be com-
BBT mended for his foresight. No man
without plenty of rich, red blood filled
Cj with health-giving and strength building
z j iron could withstand the terrific on- fl
J slaughts of a giant like Willard. It should B
J occur to every thinking person that if a 1
I man as physically tit as Dempsey should ’
| c matter it advisable to take Nuxated Iron,
how much more important it is for the aver
age mgn or w >man to Sec that there is no
lack of iron in the blood. There is today
a surprising number of persons who sutler
from iron deficiency. Many a capable man
or woman falls just short of winning because
they don’t back up their mentality with the
physical strength and energy which comes
from having plenty of iron in the blood.
Lack of iron in the blood not only makes a
man a physical and mental weakling, nerv
ous, irritable, easily fatigued, but it utterly
robs him of that virile force, that stamina
and strength of will which are so necessary
to success and power in every w r alk of life.
It may also transform a beautiful, sweet
tempered woman into one who is cross,
nervous and irritable. To help make strong,
keen, red-blooded Americans there is nothing
in my experience which I have found so
valuable as organic iron—Nuxated Iron.”
