SAYS BRITAIN MUST
FIX PRICE OF FOOD

London, Nov 1S.-Colonel Winston
Churchill predicted in the house of
commons that before the end of the
war the government would not only
take over all British shipping but that
universal service would be ordered
not only for the army but for the gen
eral purpose of the war
The former first lord of the admir-
atty also predicted that it would be
necessary to adopt ration tickets for
all essentials and that prices would
have to be fixed to secure to the poor
est classes the power OF buying a GER
tain modicum of food. He said that
he was quite sure that national organ
ization of agriculture was inevitable.
I'VE need a great organization" he
concluded, "for producing munitions
OF life just as we do for munitions OF
death. Let the government do these
things while there is yet time"

This, i'm the wake of short crops. is
given by government officials as one

During the first eight months 'of

abroad more than $500, 100000 worth

This presages total expectation OF
these products for the year OF nearly

preceding the outbreak of the war,
these exports totaled but $50 900 900.

FIVE ROADS MAY FORM
TELEGRAPH COMPANY

minneapolis, Nov. IS. = Five large

ing to advices from Chicago. These
companies, which are the Great North.

Western Union Telegraph company
that will shortly expire. Negotiations
for new contracts have been on in
New York, the Chicago report said,
but no agreement has been reached
and an independent commercial com
pany Is likely to be the result.
Existing contracts were made many
years ago. At that time patents COW
cred telegraph instruments and equip

such equipment would be available
for new company.
The new commercial company would
cover an extensive territory. The 500
