Washington, July 23.-With the de-
livery today by Ambassador Gerard to
the foreign office in Berlin of the new
American note warning Germany that
the loss of American lives through
further violations of neutral rights
would be regarded as 'unfriendly,"
the United States rests its case for the
present at least. The note will be
given out here late today.
Officials of the Washington govern
ment turned eXpectantly toward Ber-
lin for some indication from official
quarters t ere as to the reception of
the communication. Until such infor-
nation is at hand the next diplomatic
move of the United States will not be
decided upon.
The note is declared to be the final
word of the United States government
with regard to further transgreSsiOn
of its rights. Should a similar diSas-
ter as that to the Lusitania, occur, it
IS believed President Wilson would
call congress together to consider
course of action.
ception and there appears no inten
ton on the part of Germany further
to violate neutral rights on the high
seas, the president shortly will take
up the situation that has arisen with
Great Britain over interference with
American commerce by the allies. A
note virtually is ready now to be dis
patched to Great Britain again pro-
testing against deviation from interna-
der iascouncil against commerce with

fure by thermostat 1t is just prior
to being put in the ovens that the
bakers labels are placed on each loaf.
No paste Is used, the labels adhering
because of the natural sickness of the

Finished, the bread is removed from

A word might be added here as to
the endless chains" These are small
platforms or roadways composed of
moving cables. In some places can

ern bakers prefer the metal carrier.
claiming greater cleanliness. AS it
passes along on the moving roadway
the bread has chance to cool slightly
before it must be handled.
BY horse and wagon. by automobile
and by train the bread is carried to the
retailer. This is supervised by ship
ping office force, representing. how
ever, only portion of the clerical
force of the bakery, for books must be
kept, account must be kept of supplies
and all the other activities common to
ordinary business houses must be
given attention.
Three factors make bread production
of interest to those engaged in the
occupation, according to one of the
prominent bakers of Washington.
These are: The fact that dough is in
one sense living as Well as life
giving to the people one of the neces-
stiles of life and that there is abun
dant and keen competition.
Bread is something which must

ing the people something eatable. I
like to feel that | am one of the pro-
know If all others feel as 7 do about
it. but to me bread is a living body.
The yeast which goes into il is liv-
ing organism and gives life to the
dough. Then the addition of salt and
other ingredients brings about chem
ical changes. In many WAYS the piece
of dough which later becomes the loaf
of bread resembles mans body, per-
forming some of the same functions,
such as breathing.
Competition is always good for
trade Without il any industry be-
comes lax. Personally, | like competi-
tion very much.
AS matter of fact. it is proba hle
that much of the advancement of bread
making in the District may be ac-
credited to competition. Large amounts
of capital have been invested and COM
petition has been vigorous. Machinery
and capital. which made machinery
possible. are held largely responsible
for the development of baking as a
scientific industry. AS previously not
ed. machinery has made possible bet
ter sanitary conditions. has proved
time and labor saver. and has made for
exactness: also. it has done much TO
make large plants possible.
Bakers OF washington nave con-
tributed to the list of machines used
in breadmaking. Some Of these ma
chimes are used all over the United
States. and, indeed. in many foreign
countries. Through the employment of
scientists. too, Washington bakers have
materially contributed to the advance
ment of breadmaking over the entire
civilized world. One firm at present
has four specialists working in as
many different fields determining the
effect of climatic conditions. certain
flours and other factors in the produc-
tion of this, the chief article of food.
Who can prophesy the future OF
breadmaking in the District of Column
bia? Within the last year great prog
ress has been noted. No ore can estl-
mate accurately as to the future. but
the baker looks forward with optimism
and confidence that progress will con-
tinue.
The home field is a big one. especially
with the constantly growing popula-
tion. The country field is gradually en-
1arging a the farmers wife learns she
can save herself time and labor by pur-

To the lay visitor to a modern, eff
cient bakery two features are predomi
nant-cleanlipess and magnitude.
More than 130 tons of -four are used
in the bread supply baked in Washing
ton each day. If an average of a pound
to loaf is allowed. Under the hands
of the bakers this is converted into
about I30 different kinds of bread,
rolls and biscuits. In this great variety.
of course, are enumerated many "spe-
cfal' kinds of bread. such as not gen.
orally seen in the stores and markets.
Many lunchrooms have favorite kinds,
which they receive each day.
Six of WashingtoIs largest bakeries
produce more than 10000 loaves of
bread per diem. These are known as
the big bakeries. Those which pro-
duce less than 10000 loaves each day
ranging from a few hundred up--are
known as small" bakeries. and are to
be found in nearly every part OF the
city. The large bakeries alone rep
resent many acres of floor space. and
the capital invested in them would run
into the millions of dollars.
The big plants are run on q twenty
four hour a day" schedule. and even
then there is not sufficient opportunity

Thermometers are to be seen every
where. The mixing is done by large
machines having long arms and gl-
Santic strength. After the dough has
been mixed sufficiently in this. manner
at a certain number of revolutions per
minute, according to the desired tex
ture, it is dropped another floor into the
dough room, where it ferments.
It's stay here is from two to six hours
in length, or even seven hours, accord
ing to the bread being made. While
here it is held in metal troughs about
fourteen feet in length and holding
