Secretary Garrison has approved a
clubs utilize their clubhouses and
grounds as impromptu training camps
and keep the War Department informed
as to the readiness of members to offer
their cars and services as drivers in
the event OF war.
II believe" said Secretary Garrison,
that the Plattsburg encampment has
proved a success in teaching the rudi-
ments Of the art of war to a number
Of our citizens, and in giving them an
insight into actual heldwork. This
available experienced army officers as
instructors. It Is possible that the idea
might in part be extended to motoring
clubs by the organization thereat Of
rife clubs"
He said that Congress has authorized
the issue Of rifles and ammunition to
such clubs, and he made various sug-
sestions ~ to how instructors could
be obtained. He added that tho motor
car has shown its facility for various
transportation duties in tho present
war, and that to know how many are
available Is Of value to the War De-
partment.
Cars Of one make" said the Secre-
tary, should be combined in ono unit

That the carnival and parade Monday

ENGLAND IS DEPENDENT
ON U. S. FOR FOOD, HE SAYS
II. A. Jacobs Of Chicago Says Brit
tains Are Fearful Of Any Break
With the United States.

England is absolutely dependent upon
America for food supplies, in spite Of
the assertion frequently made that she
could subsist on her own resources
for a long time. according to state
ment made by H. A Jacobs of Chi
cago, who is on visit here, having
journ in the British Isle
1T is surprising" he says, "that the
English government should seize our
cargoes destined for neutral countries
and convert them to its own use. The
Englishmen see no wrong in the prac-
tica1 conf1scation Of some SIS, 200, 900
worth Of meat oargoes, for instance,
but 1t is hard to convince an Ameri-
can that England has any right to
make such seizure
I know that England is fearful of
what might follow a break with Amer
lea For months the government has
been urging the people to mako use
OF every available foot Of ground for
the raising Of garden truck. It is
urging economy everywhere, for it
realizes that the food question may
soon DO serious one. Although the
acreage does not permit extensive
farming. vegetable raising is being
pursued in all small yards and fields
that were formerly used for sraxins.
This material problem has handi-
capped England. The clothing Of SOL
dfers has been difficult to obtain on
account Of the lack Of raw material.
One mill is turning out sixteen miles
Of cotton cloth a day in an effort to
supply the demand.
Zeppelin raids have terrified the
people of the east and south coasts.
and the gay resorts of England have
been almost deserted for many months. I"

QUALITIES OF GAME FISH
A NEVER-SETTLED ISSUE
But Grizzled Boatman Presents
View Which for Time Being Is
Received With Favor.

1t was the ancient and never-settled
dispute that flourishes at all seasons
among anglers as to the merits of vari-
Gus freshwater game fish. One by
one the pickerel. pike and others had
been eliminated, and the discussion had
narrowed down to the usual three best
bets of the east-brook trout, land
locked salmon and black bass. The
locality happened to be one near which
all three are found-a shady dock on
the shores of Lake Pemeeseewassee, at
Norway, Me.-and the time was last
month.
The bass and the salmon advocates
had spoken nobly in behalf Of their
clients DR.. HenshalTs pronouncement
on the bass-"pound for pound and
inch for inch. the sma1l-mouthed bass
is the gamest fish that swims"-and Dr.

lovers had been literally and vocifer

personal experiences and opinions of

CURB ON SPECULATION
STOCK EXCHANGE AIM
Banks Alarmed by Swiftly Ascend
ing Tendency of Market,
and Fear Break.

NEW YORK, October 6-Members OF
the New York Stock Exchange have
taken action to curb the nationwide
speculation in So-called war stocks,
whose rapidly soaring values have led
a runaway market through million and
million and a half share days.
Banks. trust companies and financial
houses of New York, alarmed at the
swiftly ascending tendency Of the mar
ket. and fearful of sudden break in
values, have set the financial brakes
and applied pressure on stock ex-
change houses to diminish. If not en-
tirely end. the riot of speculation.
Many stock exchange houses respond
ed to that pressure by notifying their
clients that they would have to double
the amount of their margins in these
specialties. Heretofore the chief spec
ulative stocks, with a few notable ex-
ceptions, have been carried on q 90
point margin. Hereafter the margin
will be 40 points. at least until such
time as the market becomes normal
again.
Stocks Carried Down.
Whom the demand for more margin
was made many buyers were unable to
comply with 1t, and a wave of selling
orders swept over the exchange, car
rying stocks down from to 10 points.
A recovery was noted later In the ses-
sion, but the close was OF from 3 to
10 points from the high level.
Official coEnizance of the situation
was taken by the stock exchange at a
special meeting of the governing COM
mittee. 1t was the unanimous belief
of the committee that something
should Be done at once to curb specu-
lation. The demand for more margin
seemed to be sufficient for the first
step, so the committee decided simply
to sound a warning by calling the at
tention of all stock exchange members
to certain resolutions already in force.
For more than a week the banks
have been somewhat uneasy over the
condition of the market. For some
time past Wall street has appeared as
the pot of gold at the end of the rain
country. Tales of fabulous riches to
be made in stock market gambling
have made the financial section the
mecca Of horde of spectators from
coast to coast.
Nothing Heard Of Losers.
Typical Of a hundred others is the
story Of man who came to Wall street
four or Eve months ago with less than
$1,000 and today is worth moro than
100000. OF the man who lost there
is no story told, yet the records of
brokers' offices show that he is in the
great majority.
To discourage speculation many
financial houses within the past week
have cut in half the sums they had
advanced on certain war specialties and
| thrown out others altogether. For
weeks past there have been frequent
additions to the string ofkonservative
brokers who have refused to buy war
stocks for their clients. In addition
there are many more brokers who will
| trade in such stocks only for cash.

Grizzled Boatman's Opinion.

But, according to the idea Of Wash
ington man who was there. it remained
for a grizzled old boatman in a loud
pink shirt and half-soled moccasins to
settle the matter pretty effectually.
"Them's all three nice fish. and they
all fight good" he declared. shifting
his eating tobacco" from east to west !:
but I'll tell you fellers how it is. A
man hooks a nice sawmon, or a good
bass, and lands him after a big fight
He weighs him. and he measures him,
and he says to his boatman:
"'Say, that's a good one, hain't it?
Let's hurry up and see if we can't git
another
But when a feller's ketched a good
big brook traout, by gosh. he jest sets
there and looks at it. And I want to
tell We he's got something to look at!'
