Kaisers Deadly War Drive Shattered By Wilsons Embargo
President Wilson issues a sweeping export embargo that prohibits shipments to enemy and neutral nations except to meet U S needs and allied demands. The order expands listed goods and aims to conserve gold while aiding neutral nations after U S needs are satisfied. Wilson argues the measure is export control not prohibition, designed to safeguard domestic needs and assist allies without aiding the Kaiser. The policy signals a broader strategy to pressure Germany while maintaining a balance for neutrals and wartime logistics.

Extra Rations For Miners In Austria-Hungary
Herr von Momenn, newly named Austrian minister of public works, urged the chamber of deputies to face the coal shortage with urgency. He cited 12,000 tubs returned from a trek and called for government action to increase production and grant miners extra rations even at the expense of others. An economic bill was introduced to create a state monopoly on coal and curb heating in public spaces, while closing luxury hotels.
