Secretary Baker Names Board of Three to Conduct Inquiry. Washington, Sept. 5. Investigation of the defective ammunition, turned out at the Frankfort arsenal, by a special committee or two civilians and one army officer was ordered to day by Secretary Baker. Dr. H. T.

Major-Gen-eral Scott, chiefof staff, will name the army member.

The American and Dutch governments reached a virtual impasse when the ex ports board refused to recognise an agreement made by Van Rappard with the Belgian Relief Commission call ing for a division of the cargoes be tween Holland and Belgium. , The min ister has declined flatly to order the vessels unloaded unless some of the grain goes to Holland and meanwhile the cereals are spoiling. The special mission Is expected to amplify a recent offer by the Dutch government to turn over a large num ber of merchant ships to the United States in exchange for the release of foodstuffs. These vessels were to have been put in the American and coast wise service to release American ships for trans-Atlantic trade. The exports board has Informed the State Department that its information shows Holland 13 in no immediate danger of a food shortage and that no food shipments should be permitted to go through for at least two months during which time the United States can ascertain just what Its export sur plus will be. The situation In Holland has pre sented one of the hardest problems that has faced the exports board in its attempt to put into effect a rationing eystem for the northern European neural. The Dutch buy most of their grain from other countries and export large quantities of dairy and meat products to Germany. The American government ' desires to stop this food exportation to the enemy. Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sept. 6. The American Bar Association . at its ses sion today denounced the war methods of Germany as illegal, resolved to re quest the judges of - the state and Fed eral courts to write shorter judicial opinions, authorized further investi gation of a proposal to change the date of the Presidential inauguration, opposed legislation designed to repeal the National bankruptcy law, and fa vored the "technical error" bill now before the United States Senate, a measure empowering appellate courts to disregard in their decisions techni cal errors or defects which do not af fect the substantial rights of the par ties. The indictment of Germany, which was embodied in the formal report of the committee on international law, aroused no discussion except the sug gestion, which was afterward adopted, that the document be sent to the com mittee on public information for such use as it may desire. The report de nounced these acts of Germany: Sinking merchant ships without summons, proclamation of a barred zone, conspiracies against the domestic peace and trade of the United States, murder of civilians and assaults on women, wanton devastation of locali ties abandoned, looting of occupied re gions, murder of Captain Fryatt and theajs to treat other mariners as franctireurs, deportation of women and young girls, and sinking hospital ships and supply ships sailing under safe conducts from the German authorities. "We welcome," said the report, "the entry of the United States into the war in conjunction' with the Entente Allies for the purpose of checking such law less excesses and overthrowing those forms of autocracy which menace the peace, security and civilization of the whole world." Suggestions for the curtailing of Ju dicial opinions which have been dis cussed before meetings of the asso ciation for several years also were made. Charles E. Hughes, of New York, and Robert MoNutt McElroy, of New Jer sey, spoke tonight. Mr. Hughes discussed Federal laws and decisions thereon as they affect governmental action In war time. "While we are at war.' 'he said, "we are not in revolution. We are making was as a nation organized under the constitution, from which the establish ed national authorities derive all their powers either In war or in peace. The constitution is as effective today as it ever was and the oath to support it is just as binding. Self-preservation Is the first law of national life and the constitution itself provides the neces sary powers in order to defend and pre serve the United States." Final sessions will be held tomor row. ISHII DELIVERS MESSAGE. Head of Special Japanese Mission Ad dresses the House. Washington, Sept. 5. Japan's mes sage of comradeship and co-operation in the war was delivered to the House today by Viscount Ishii amid hearty applause from a crowded floor and gal leries. The special ambassador told the House as he had told the Senate and President Wilson, that his country was in the battle against military op pression, to stay and welcomed the opportunity to fight beside the Unitea States. i Every reference to friendly relations between America and Japan and to in sidious efforts to mar them was warm ly received. Speaker Clark, introduc ing the visitor, said: "The Empire of Japan is our west ern neighbor. They hold one side of the Pacific and we hold the other, and every right thinking man in the em pire of Japan and the republic of the United States hopes that peace and amity and friendly relations will al ways prevail among these two great powers." The members of the Japanese mis sion" and Ambassador Sato were en tertained at dinner tonight by Assist ant Secretary Phillips of the State De partment.

AS no NIC In Many Forms, Various Styles and Strengths, Iron as Blood Medicine Used Many Years. NATURAL IRON COSTS BUT FRACTION OF "PREPARED" All of us have used Iron as a tonic in one form or another for years. Be.ef-iron-and-wine, quinine and iron, Nux Vomica and Iron, etc., and because of the power of iron as a tonic, sick and bed-ridden people have been strength ened; nervous folks built up and blood troubles, pimples, stomach and indi gestion ailments banished. Now that just plain, ordinary iron highly concentrated, can be bought at drug stores under the name of Acid Iron Mineral, Its use as a tonic and aid to digestion should become unlver bslI Acid Iron Mineral in its present form has many advantages. Unlike iron of old it does not injure teeth, it does not hurt the stomach or cause constipa tion. Acid Iron Mineral instead greatly benefits the digestion. Acid Iron Mineral does not contain habit forming laxatives which so of ten derange the system and bowels of normal people seeking only a tonic and blood remedy. People with no consti pation troubles may take Acid Iron Mineral without fear of being disor dered or upset. If constipated, A-I-M Tablets should be used in connection with the Acid Iron Mineral. Otherwise not. Being highly concentrated, Acid Iron Mineral goes from two to six times as far and whole families will find It an unusual, entirely different, pleasant and healthful tonic, blood remedy and aid to digestion and appetite.

Rains were fa vorable, however, in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. "Satisfactory progress was made In the development of cotton in North Carolina and it improved where rains occurred and it is generally fruiting well. The bolls were opening fast in South Carolina and picking is going on rapidly. There were many unfavor able reports from central and eastern Georgia, where cotton deteriorated on account of the drought; in other sec tions good rains brought relief. Pick ing and ginning progressed rapidly in southern Alabama and work was be gun in the northern portion of this state. "The bolls are generally opening rapidly in Mississippi; sunshine is needed also in a few districts In Mis sissippi." SOUTHERN BEL LIS ERECTING HANDSOME HOME AT GOLDSBORO Goldeboro, X. C, Sept. 5.
