Such a Scheme Offers Each One of

If the belligerent governments of
Europe will ngree to the plan offered
by E. N. Breitung of E. N. Breltung
& Co. of New York the German and
Austrian merchant vessels now lying
Idle in American ports will be put In
service between New York and South
American ports and other neutral coun-
tries. They will not carry contrahand
of war. They will not carry food sup-
plies to the warring armies.
If the belligerent governments bo
desire each of them may be repre-
sented in the company which has been
formed to take these vessels over and
the fullest opportunity "will be afford-
ed the warring nations to determine
that every stipulation of the contract
proposed is being lived up to.
This country Is losing millions of
dollars a month in freight because
there are not ships to handle It ac-
cording to Mr. Breltung. They have
all been drawn off to. engage In the
profitable business of carrying muni-
tions of war and other supplies to the
fighting countries.
Meat Imports Shut Off. '
"The South American trade has been
completely paralyzed. The cost of liv-
ing has been advancing due to the In-
ability to secure goods from foreign
countries. There is no meat coming
from Argentina 'and no hides from the
South American ports" Mr. Breltung
says.
"While many men are making enor-
mous fortunes handling war supplies
the. great mass of business men of the
country are suffering. Railroads have
declared an embargo on freight be-
cause It cannot be moved off the piers.
The situation is constantly getting
worse and ocean freight rates have
advanced almost 1000 percent. Steam-
