NEARING THE HOMES1RETCH.

As the Presidential campaign nears
It's close the effective efforts Of Mr..
Hughes and his campaign associates TO
accomplish the reelection of Mr.. Wilson
are more and more apparent. His per-
sistent efforts to belittle the Presidents
acts have proved fruitless except to
embarrass our government abroad, while
the onslaughts Of Messrs. Pinchot,
Bonaparte and Roosevelt are notorious
and their rough assaults upon the Presi-
dents judgment and veracity are daily
turning doubling independents into
loyal friends. Just as similar assaults
against President Lincoln's reelection
made warm supporters out Of former
grumblers, SO today vast army Of con-
sentative voters are more and more out
spoken In their decision to continue to
the end of Europe's cruel war the Presi-
dent who has thus far kept US out Of
its narrowing horrors, and preserved at
the same time Americas honor, peace
and prosperity.

Attempt to Fire Fields
Fails, Says Food
Dictator
FARM YIELDS
ARE PLENTIFUL
TeutOns Will Raise AS
Many Pigs AS In
Peace Times
By CARL W. ALDERMAN.

tSfdH Correspondent United Press.J
BERLIN, Aug l5.--Allied military
chieftains have attempted TO aid
the "starve Germany out" campaign
by setting fire to German harvest
fields, according 10 reports received
here.
The raids by Anglo.French avis-
tors over the Black forest and farm
lands near Karlsruhe are said TO
lfave been experimental trips In
cendiary bombs were dropped In
several fields with the evident OBJ
ject OF starting great fires, but did
only slight damage.
Adolph Won Batocki, German food
dictator" said today there is little
chance that the plan will succeed
In the hrst place, the fields have
not been dry enough TO enable them
TO start a great fre." he said "In
the second place, many OF the crops
are already In. In the third place,
we have no large farms like you
have in America. and II small farms
lost their crops in this manner. II
would not affect the total. Don't
forget. too. that our aeroplanes are
guarding our farms as well as the
trenches Furthermore, our biggest
harvest, potatoes, cannot be burned
because they are buried"
Oats supply from the new harvest
is so good that horses rations will
be increased. Batocki said. The
grain crop is SO good that bread ra-
tions will be oincreased and the
fodder prospects are so excellent
that Germany expects 10 raise as
large stock OF pigs this fall as in
peace times by special arrange
ment between the government and
the cattle raisers. the latter must
deliver TO the government so many
fat pigs in return for fodder, which
the government has monopolized.
This insures certain supply OF
pork and makes unnecessary the
slaughtering OF milk COWS unless
they are dry.
AS the result Of these steps.
there Will be no shortage in milk"
said Batock.

The president spent an hour and

After the conference ne said II wa

very candid and honest discus
sion was in progress about the prac-
ticable basis Of settlement
When the president resumed the
hearings today, ,he original ques-
tion-what shall be arbitrated and
what form shall the arbitration
take7--was the foremost problem
under consideration.
The principal difficulty lies IN

claim should be considered along
