Our Government has asked usto help save 15.000,000 tons of coal to relieve the distress of our gallant allies.

The decision to create a speakers’ division was reached aftermany requests for speakers hadbeen received, and after severalspeakers of national reputationhad offered their services. Someof the best speakers of the country will be available for this important work. The organizationof the National Speakers’ divisionfor the Liberty Loan will not interfere with the local speakers’bureaus in the Federal Reservedistricts to forward the work ofthe Liberty Loan. The functionof the new division will be tomeet the demand throughout thecountry for nationally known public speakers to-deliver addressesexplaining the loan on behalf ofthe Treasury Department.

sales PROPAGANDA AGAINST

nus FOOD-PLEDGE CAMPAIGN

The Food Administration authorizes

the following:“That our enemies on the other side

of the fence are fighting our plan is oneof the best recommendations that plancan have, and to me the most significantsign as to the value of food pledge weekis the fact that the pro»Germans herehave recognized its importance and arefighting it hard.”

This statement is made by Dr. ll. L.Wilbur, president of Stanford University, and head of the food conservationdivision of the United States Food Administration, while discnssing the antagonism of the Prussian propagandiststo the'coming campaign to line up theAmerican people in the interests of f000conservation.

Propaganda Widespread.

Evidences of his statement, Dr. \Vilbur declares, are brought to light dailyfrom all parts of the country and in themost subtle ways.

“If you sign the pledge card, y‘ourhome will be invaded later and the goodsyou have canned will be taken away."“-It is a trick of the Government, whoseofiicials will requisition all your preserves." Among the colored people ofthe South the propagandists have beencirculating a rumor that the intention isto take food away from the Negroes andgive it to the whites. Even the pro-German bakcr employee has been chargedwith doing his bit for the Kaiser byburning the bread in his charge.

Can Easily Overcome Attacks.Dr. Wilbur believes that attacks like

these can be easily overcome once a groupof fighting American women line up andinsist on food conservation. This theywill do by enlisting in the Food Administration during the week of October 21.“Their chief significance." he. concludes,“is to show that the pro-German propagandists realize as well as we do that ahuge American ‘ food conservation army ’

will be the biggest thing in Americanhistory. and will test whether or not ademocratic people can organize themselves suliicicntly to prove their form of

'

government worth lighting for."___—n.—FIXES BRITISH CHEESE PRICES.

ENGLAND’S SUPPLY OF MEAT- ’

SHOWS STEADY LOWER TREND

The Food Administration authorizesthe following:

The extent of England's present meatshortage is shown in the summary forJuly of meat passing through SmithfieldMarket, England’s great distributing center, just received by the United StatesFood Administration.

The total July. receipts amountcd to20.802 tons, as compared with 23,954 tonsin the same month of 1916, 29,597 tons inJuly, 1915, and 36,720 tons in July, 1914,or a decrease of 43.3 per cent, as comparcd with 1914.

Shows Regular Decline.

This shows the regular and marked decline that has taken place in the meatsupply of England. A comparison of thefirst seven months of 1917 with the samemonths in 1914 shows that the presentsupply is less than two-thirds of theprewar normal.

The declining scale of prices on livestock adopted in Great Britain is expected to relieve this condition. TheGovernment‘s fixed price for cattle forSeptcmber is $17.76 per 100 pounds. forOctober $17.28, for November and Decemlxcr $16.08, and for January $14.40.

‘Should Bring Cattle to Market.

“It was expected that this decreasingratio of p'rlces will bring out the cattleready for market immediately.

The shortage of fodder in Holland isalso. expected to put upon the market aconsiderable supply of meat from thatcountry. Large numbers of the Hollandcattle will probably be either exported orslaughtered.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES BRIEFLY TOLD

SENATE.

Within a period of about four hoursthe Senate yesterday afternoon passedthe urgent deficiency bill, carrying a totalof almost $8,000,000,000. The Senateadded almost $1,000,000,000 to the Housebill to provide for, estimates submittedafter the passage of the measure in theother body. The large increases arealmost entirely for the support of theArmy and Navy. As reported to theSenate, a restriction was placed on theuse of funds appropriated for the examination of drafted lnen up to a limit of

. 1,000,000. This was changed by Chairman Martin, of the committee in‘ chargeof the bill, so that examination can bemade of any number of men “ not in ex—cess of the number the War Departmentcan properly clothe, feed, and equip.”It was explained that this would providefor all the examining and exemptionboards could take care of within the nextIbree months and would provide for1,500,000 men. D'uring the discussionChairman Martin said the time had comewhen Senators‘ scrutinize rigidly the expenditures of the Government, whichwere mounting into huge sums. He declared that it was the duty of Congressto supply all the funds necessary for thesuccessful prosecution of the war. Anamendment, offered by Senator Robinson,was accepted by a vote of 28 to 26 appropriating $750,000 for the United StatesEmployment Bureau asked for by the Department,ot Labor. This item was inserted over the protest of the committee.The big budget now goes to conference.

Agitation for Early Adjournment.

Agitation for an early adjournment wasrenewed again yesterday, with the leaders all hopeful that it’ will come about.Some Senators fixed October 5 as thedate, but many otherswvcre of the opinion lhat Congress could not clean up allthe pending matters before the 12th.

After another day of hard work theconferees on the war-tax revenue billagain found themselves unable to agreeon the war~profils section. There weresigns of a possible agreement this morning when the conferees reconvened.Practically the only remaining obstacleis the war-profits section.

A favorable report has" been orderedby the Immigration Committee on thebill of Senator Calder to naturalize aliensserving in the Army and Navy and to admit to citizenship aliens other than onemies within 90 days who have signifiedtheir intention of becoming citizens. Aprovision that would have admittedenemy aliens who filed their declarationsbefore the war was stricken out. Senator Husting contended that such a provision would nullify everything that hasbeen done to protect the Nation againstGerman intrigue.

The disability rates in the soldiers‘ insurance bill as passed by the House wereapproved by the finance subcommittee.Early agreement on the. insurance provisions is expected. and leaders say theyhope to put the bill through by ihe end ofthe week with one or two days of debate.

No official delegation from Congresswill be sent to Europe for the present.This decision was reached at a conferenceyesterday between President Wilson anda subcommittee representing the ForeignRelations Committees of the two Houses.The invitations from the French andBritish Governments will be left for thefuture.

At a conference between MajorityLeader Martin and Senator Overman,chairman of the Senate Special LobbyInvestigating Committee, it was decidednot to hold a senatorial investigation ofthe Bernstorff affair disclosed by theState Department

Hearings closed yesterday afternoonbefore the Judiciary Committee on thesoldiers’ .aud sailors' civil rights bill.The insurance section, which has beenthe cause of controversy, was withdrawnand will be submitted in connection withthe bill to enlarge the scope of the WarRisk Bureau. Witnesses before the committee representing both the soldiers andthe insurance companies were satisfiedwith this arrangement.

Viscount Reading, Lord Chief Jusiiceof England, now in the United States onspecial mission, was the guest of VicePresident Marshall at the Capitol andwas presented to Senators on the floor.

John B. Elliott was confirmed as collector of customs at Los Augelcs, (3:11.,this being a reappointment.

wounrs commas PLAN '

T0 MAKE SCHOOL SURVEY

Many of the State divisions of thewoman‘s committee of the Council of Na—

tional Defense are preparing for a survery of the courses of instruction alreadyoffered by the institutions in the severalStates in order to find out definitely thekind of occupational training that is

available and where it may be obtained.This survey comes as a result of inquiriesfrom women in all parts of the countryasking for war work. _Mrs. Joseph B. Lamar. of Georgia, chairman of the committee on State. organiaztion of thewoman‘s committee, has made the following statement concerning this work:

Many Committees Established.

“Many of the State divisions have ulrcady established committees on instruc'iion which plan surveys of the coursesoffered by State, county, or communityinstitutions. These committees will makea study of the registration to discoverthe lines of service desired by women foractive work. The committee will thenask these institutions to add courses, or,if this is not possible. the. committee oninstruction may plan to organize coursesunder its own direction. Teachers whovolunteer their services. or receive aminimum fee, will be obtained. At present the demand is for nurses, stenographers. and typewriters. Women arebeing urged to take hospital training orenter business colleges.

HOUSE.

The bill creating an aircraft board thatwill lmve supervision of the aviation program provided for in the $040,000,000 appropriation was passed by the House.The bill in slightly different form haspassed the Senate,but the differences willbe speedily reconciled in conference. Thebill provides for a board of nine membersconsisting of three civilians and officersof the Army and Navy, including theChief Signal Officer of the Army andChief Constructor of the Navy.

The conference report on the tradingwith-tho-enemy bill was adopted after ananimated discussion without a roll call.Mr. London, of New York, made a pointof order against the amendment writtenin by the confcrecs giving the PostmasterGeneral authority over foreign-languagepapers, but the objection was overruled.

Representative Norton, of North Dakota, addressed the House in support oflegislation authorizing (‘ongress to senda joint committee to the allied countries.He urged this action in the interest of abetter understanding of war conditionsand the successful prosecution of the warby this Government.

The Rules Committee held no meetingand took no action on the resolutions referred to it calling for an investigation ofthe charges made by RepresentativeHefiin concerning the alleged use of German money to influence Congress.

“ The matter of giving training in anyoccupation desired is one that must bedetermined by the local and State. committes. The surveys which are being considered will include the courses beinggiven by the Young Women‘s ChristianAssociation, Young Men‘s Christian Association, the public schools, and the business and academic colleges. The women'scommittee is not in any sense of theword a placement bureau, but is interested in the finding of work for womenwho want to be of use to their country,and is encouraging the forming of thesecommittees on instruction in the variousStates.“

WAR INDUSTRIES BOARD TO PURCHASE NITRATEOF SODA TO BE SOLD T0 FARMERS FOR FERTILIZER

AS AUTHORIZED BY A RECENT ACT 0F CONGRESS

No Competitive Bidding for Chilean

Prce'uct “$10,009,000 New Ap

pro_"riated for the I’urpese—De

mand May' Fall Oil Unless the

Prices Decrease.

The Department of Agriculture authori7c.; the following:

Secretary Houston stated today thatthe Department of Agriculture has forsome time been giving careful consideration to the problem of securing nitrate ofsoda for fertilizer use. Under a recentauthorization of Congress there is available an appropriation of $1tl,0t)l'l.0ti()to heused, at the discretion of the President,

'to secure nitrate of soda and to supply itto farmers at cost. for cash.

' '

It is proposed to coordinate all the. (lovernment pur bases of Chilean nitrate forthis country through the purchasing contmittee of the war industries hoard. under the immediate supervision of .\[r.Baruch, so that there will he no competitive bidding for this material. Thisshould very much sin iiify the problemand make it feasible Ho secure the. best.possible terms. The price of (‘hileannitrate orrhoard ship in Chile has greatlyincreased within recent months withoutjustification. Shipping rates also haveincreased.

Cause of Increased Prices.

The increase in price is due in part tounfounded statements regarding thedemand for Chilean nitrate for inunitions purposes and for fertilizer,__capet-tally in connect'on with the Stimuli),

UUH recently approl riated by Congress to .purchase nitrate of soda. As a matter offact. the demands of this country fornitrate of sodarwill be smaller than here.tofore. The Navy already has placedoontr’acts for this material to satisfy itsneeds for the next 12 months. The WarDepartment announces that practicallyall the sodium nitrate. which it has beenplanned to procure for the gradual building up of the war reserve already hasbeen contracted for. The quantity whichmay be purchased for fertilizer use underthe special appropriation of Congresswill not be an addition to the quantity"normally used.

Demand May Decrease.

Any quantity purchased by the Government and sold to farmers will simply

talrl- the place in part of quantities here

tofore supplied to them through privateagencies. As a matter of fact, unless satisfactory prices can he secured, it isprobable titat the farmers will not scek3H large a quantity of this material ashas been used in the last year or two.Some cool ‘acts already have. licen madeby farmers for nitrate. of soda. In view

of all these facts, it is probable that theaggregate demand for the next. five orsix months will be below the normal. It

'is. certain that unless the market prices.which are now in the neighborhood of

. licenses may be revoked for cause.

$100 a ton, fall, the farmers’ demand fornitrate will decrease.

As has been stated, the purchasingwill be handled directly through the WarIndustries Board. The Department of:Agriculture will cooperate with the purchasing committee in the eii'ort to procure nitrate of soda. It is authorizedby law to secure facts as to the demandfor fertilizers, includingr nitrate of soda.their supply. consumption, costs. amlprices, and the basic facts relating totheir ownership. production, transportation, manufacture, storage, anti distribution. This inquiry is now being prosccuted through the Bureau of Markets.In connection with this the needs offarmers will be ascertained, and allamounts purchased for their use, afterthe shipments reach the ports. will betaken charge of by the department andwill be distributed through the department to farmers at cost for cash. Thecollectiot'ts will he tnade by the department amt will be turned into the Treasury. To assist the deparlnicnt in itsactivities in this dirt'ction the servicesof Mr. Moll R. Wilkinson, 01' A‘lanta.Ga" have been secured. He will be given

such assistants as may be needed andwill have available the services of theexperts of the Bureau of Soils and theBureau of Plant Industry.

May License Distribution.Authority has been given the President,

if netcssary. to license the importation,manufacture. storage. and distribution offertilizers, to require the licensees tosubmit reports. and to permit entry andinspection oi’ their places of business.'l'he President is further authorirual, ifhe shall find that any storage charge,connnission, profits. or practice of any licensee is unjust or unreasonable or discriminatory and unfair. to cause suchcharge. commission, profit, or practice tobe discontinued. and in lieu of suchcharge. commission,proiit. or practice may

determine what is just and reasonable.and his iilltlillf'. shall be pritna t'acic evi

dence in any court in which proceedingsmay be brought. It is also provided that

If itlit-comes necessary to exercise the licensing power. the Department of Agriculture. through a special agency, will utilizethe services of thc licensing.r division of

the Food Administration.There has bceii available no thoroughly

satisfactory data as to the yields ofcrops due solely to the application ofnitrate of soda, and. therefore. as to theprice at which farmers can afford to useit. Realizing this fact, the. Secretary of .Agriculture directed the Bureau of PlantIndustry last spring to make lilt) experiments. 'lhese experiments are being

made with corn in five Southern States—Virginia, North Carolina, South (“arolina. Georgia. and Alabama—in 10 counties in \ach State and on 2 farms ineach county. It is hoped that the results of the investigation will be available within thc next six weeks. Wheninformation is secured it will promptlybe. given publicity.
