NEW YORK is FACING
SERIOUS MlLK FAMINE

New York, Sept. 3o.-Three of the
largest milk distributing companies in
this city admitted that after today,
when their contracts with %dairylnen
expire, they will be unable to supply
their customers. They predicted a
milk famine before the end of next
week unless means are found to bring
the farmers and dealers together. 1t
Is said there is enough milk stored
here to last about five days, but after
that only about 80 per cent of the
quantity normally consumed will be
available. This will no more than sup
ply the needs of babies and the sick
in hospitals.
The situation is the result of differ
ences between city dealers and the
dairynen's league, which supplies the
city with milk.
The league for which John j. Dillon,
state commissions of foods and mar
kets, is acting as agent, demands l
cent u quart more han the dealers
have been paying under the contracts
which expire today.
The companies refuse TO deal With
the league or MIR. Dillon, declaring they
will make their terms with the midi
vidual farmers and intimating that the
increase of l cent q quart would be
granted under these conditions.

BUOY BEARS
NAME Of BREMEN
Mute Evidence Cast TIP By
Sea May Reveal Tragedy
of German Sub
marine.

Portland, Me, Oct. "A life pre-
server marked Bremen the name OF
the German submarine freightcr which
has been generally expected to arrive az
some Atlantic coast port for the PAST
week or more, was picked up on the
ocean side of Cape Elizabeth late Fri
day,
The name Bremen was stcnciled in
black letters, two inches high, on both
sides of the buoy. on one side Of the
canvas covering was printed q small
crown. Over this We're the words
"Shutz~Marke,' meaning patented OF
trade mark. Beneath are the words 'V
Epping- Hoven, Wilhclnlshafen." This
Indicated, apparently, the name of tlie
maker.
The preserver seems to be new and
apparently had not been in the water IL
great length of time. II was stained
with oil. An officer Of the coast guard
cutter service who examined the buoy
said that if the preserver had been
thrown overheard by someone who
thought to play a practical joke he had
done q very good job.
The preserver was we'll made, and the
lettering and the ink were of the best
quality.
The buoy was picked UP at a small
place known as Maiden Cove by a 10
| year-old lad, Frederick Lakeman, of
Westbook.
A number of other persons We're
! nearby at the time and saw the boy
pick up the object from the beach near
the waters edge. The buoy was taken
to a newspaper office, where it was
photographed and examined by many
seafaring men.

Berlin, (yia London), Sept, 3O.-lm-
mediately upon the utterances of the
imperial chancellor in the reichstag
concerning the submarine campaign,
the afternoon newspapers generally
printed strong criticisms Of the neu-
trality OF the United states. based on
the news of the death OF the American
aviator, Kitten Rockwell. and the pres
ence of other American ayiators on the
western front.
They connect this evidence of Amerl-
can sympathy for the entente aiiles'
n the supplying Of war materials by
firms in the United States as an lhdl-
cation of the futility of concessions to
the American standpoint with regard
to submarines. They declare that these
facts show how American respect for
neutrality is vanishing and how Anlerl.
ca is misusing the present form OF
submarine warfare to cover the actiEe
participation of American concerns N
the war on the side of the entente aiiies.

EMBARGO PLAN IS
GAINING SUPPORT
Movement to Stop Exports Of
Foods May Prove an En-
barrassment to Next
Congress.

Washington, Oct. 2.-The move
ment for an embargo on wheat threat
ems to big proportions by the
time congress meets. The Washington
chamber of commerce, an Influential
organization, has taken the matter up
and will urge the national champer of
commerce to further the plan women's
clubs in Chicago and elsewhere are
active in promoting. There is every
indication that a great organized eff
fort for the embargo will be set on foot
by Women's clubs and by various or
CARNATIONS which are stirred by the
high cost of living.
While it is much to be doubted
whether congress will pass embargo
legislation q most acute and interest
ing situation will be presented if the
movement is forced and it will be an
embarrassing proposition for members
Of Senat and House.
Chicago, Sept. 30.-Resolutions ask
ing an embargo on Whea and -four
We're adopted at a meeting Of club
women, most of whom defended bakers
here for raising the price of bread. The
increase, they declared, was justified
by war exports, crop shortage and
added manufacturing expenses due tc
improved sanitary conditions.
Federal officials who are inquirine
whether there was any illegal agree
ment among the bakers to raise the
price called attention to the fact thai
bread from American flour is selling
cheaper in London, Trieste, Lyons,
Ilavre and other cities than in the
United States.
That refutes the assertions that the
war demand has justified higher prices
