situation in the larger cities Of Ger
many is expected through the organ
ization of a special department for
regulation of food supplies. This

hands Of the minister of the interior.
The new department will have all
the characteristics of ministry and
the director will be responsible to the

official responsible TO the emperor.
The people of Germany are showing
wonderful spirit of patience over the
shortage of supplies, realizing they

years rye and oats amounted virtually
to nothing. Food experts now are

SEEING A JAPANESE "COMIC."
Sticks to the Time HOnOrcd Joke Of

AFTER scanning Japanese comic

Cartoons magazine, zone might con-
clude that the mystic Jap hasn't u
greatly different viewpoint than
other folks when his thoughts are
immersed in the lighter things Of
life. Even the time-honored. hoary
jests OF the papa COW and his ever
readiness to resent encroachments
upon his fenced domain or peace of
mind find places In the funny pages
Of Japan's publications. as they still
do in ours. Quite typical example
Of japanese comic-page material,
and one which uses this very theme.

pearcd not long ago in Osaka Puck.
Two characters are used, one fel-
low of the 'Opie Dilldock' type and
the other an ordinary everyday bull.
The former finds 1t necessary to cross
bridgeless stream. Summoninx his
wits to his aid. he seizes rock and
hurls It at the others head. Then,
grabbing a plank and placing II across
that part of his anatomy most log
ically open to attack. he faces the
stream and awaits the impact. The
force impaired by the enraged bull
lifts him to the opposite bank In the
twinkling OF an eye. The line be-
meath the picture reads: Now I see
that necessity makes invention"

RAILROAD AWARDED
$13,792,83 DAMAGE
National Fire Insurance Company
Must Pay Sum to Midland
Valley.

Special to The World.
MUSKOGEE May 1;.-Damages
in the sum of sl3,792S3 were
awarded the Midland Valley Rail-
road company and the Sebastian
County Coal & Mining Co. of Arkan-
sas against the National Fire Insur-
ance company by jury in superior
court Tuesday. Although there were
two individual actions. by agreement
of counsel they were tried simultane-
ously The. jury was out only a few
minutes.
The suit was the outgrowth of
fires which destroyed property OF
the plaintiffs during a strike of coal
miners employed by the Sebastian
company. The insurance company
contended the fires had been caused
by employees of the mining company
and refused payment of the policies
under the contention that the man
ner in which the property was de-
stroyed exempted them from La
bility
The insurance company attempted
to prove that the destruction of the
mining property and railroad cars
was the result of riot between
union and non-union miners and it
was explained that If such was the
case the insurance company was not
liable. While there was no direct
testimony to show that the buildings
actually had been set afire by those
engaged in the strike, considerable
stress was placed on the natural
presumption" that such was the case.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs contended
that there was nothing to show the
fire had been started by other than
accidental means.
