Washington, July 14.-lM little more
than a month American inventive ge-
MUS has surmounted the greatest OD'
stacle to winning the war in the air
by constructing an airplane engine
equal, if not the superior, to any used
by English, French or German fliers.
This all-American airplane engine
officially known as the U. S. avla-
ton mOtor-which two months ago
did not exist even son paper-has lit
orally been sweated out OF the
thought and toll Of the nations best
engineers.
Two, J. G. Vincent of the Packard
company, and E. ]. Hall of the Hall
Scott company, with a corps of the
best craftsmen, have been driving
Through the designs at the bureau OF
standards days, nights and. Sundays
in disregard of the eight-hour day.
Q To secure the utmost speed the
parts were built in more than score
of factories, each making the part 1t
could best and most quickly manufac'
ture.
These parts have been assembled
from all over the country to make a
perfect and complete engine, and are
now under guard at the bureau Of
standards to prevent German spying.
Unless tests develop unexpected
troubles, aviation authorities say AM
erica now has an engine, adaptable
in different sizes to every airplane
from big battle plane to tiny scout,
which can be manufactured in such
enormous quantities as to overtop
anything Germany can do, even il she
stops building Zeppelins and motor
trucks.
The story of this great feat-equal
in military consequences to winning
half a dozen battles-is an example
of the wonderful resources of brains,
specialized training and productive.
capacity America is mobilizing to de-
throne the kaiser.
Ever since we entered the war our
military authorities have been con-
vinced the surest way to win quickly
was to gain air supremacy. Ger
many had shown repeatedly she can
match the utmost French and Eng
lish airplane construction. 1t was up
to Uncle Sam, and even he could not
turn the trick on time unless air
planes could be produced in quantl-
ties never dreamed Of.
They knew we had the materials,
men and factories-out how to mo-
bilize them? So the Aircraft Produc-
ton engines, they also knew, are not
and navy officials and civilians ex-
perienced in engineering production,
was organized.
This board saw the sticking point
in the win-the-war-in-the program
was the engine. No engine built to-
day in America was light and power
full enough.
Superb English and French avia-
tion engines, they ais oknew, are not
adapted to American manufacturing
methods and cannot be produced rap
idly in large quantities. Each French
and British crack motor is work OF
art, not factory product.
So there was nothing to it for Un-
Gle Sam but to do the job his own
way-design a satisfactory engine

TO REVAMP
FOOD BILL

Washington, D. c., July 14.--Plans
for speeding up final action on food
control legislation in the senate in
accordance with the suggestion of
President Wilson covered in a COM
munication to Senator Martin, demo-
cratic floor leader in the senate, were
being mapped out today by admins
tration leaders.
One of the first moves to that end
was to arrange for a meeting early
in the coming week of the senate
democratic steering committee, when
efforts will be made to perfect the
original house bill along the lines pre-
posed by the president to provide Tor
government control Of the :oodstuff,,
seeds and fuel only.
The president and H. c. Hoover are
opposed to the substitute offered by
Senator Gore, on the ground that it
emasculates the administration bill.
Prospects seemed bright today that
senate leaders would be able to so
change the bill as to make certain its
massage. Debate on the food bill con-
tinues today.

BY n. N. RICkEY.

Washington, D. c., July 14.-For
many weeks now-to be exact, since
May 22-the congress Of the United
States, both the senate and the house,
has been presenting to the people Of
this country and the world a spectacle
which, if it were not so tragic, might
be described as the most utterly ridi-
culous in the history of national and
legislative bodies.
On the date named, the Never bill,
popularity known as the food bill, was
introduced In the house,
The purpose of this bill was to re-
lieve the hundred and ten million peo-
pie of the United States from the all
but unbearable burden of the high
cost OF living.
1t provided for giving the president
authority to name food administra-
tor charged with the vitality import
ant task of stimulating the produc-
tion, regulating the distribution Of and
stopping the speculation in food.
This bill was prepared with great
care as the result of the best thought
of the greatest experts in the govern.
ment service.
Before it was introduced it was @.
KID by President Wilson and by Her.
bert C. Hoover, who had hurried from
London to volunteer his great abili-
ties as food administrator.
President Wilson had accepted Mr..
Hoover's services by cable in the be-
lief--which was shared by every man
who had followed Hoover's career
since the beginning of the European
war-that he was the best fitted man
in the whole world for the job.
There was absolutely no good
reason why the food bill should
not have been passed by congress
and become law by the presi-
dents signature within week
from the day it was introduced.
There is not the shadow of doubt
that if this had been done, every fam
lily in the United States would have
felt the effects almost Immediately, in
the reduced cost of food necessities.
THAT IS PRECISELY WHY THE
FOOD BILL WAS NOT PASSED
WITHIN A WEEK; why it has been
amended to the point where it is
scarcely recognizable; why it is still
being buffe:ed about in congress; why,
for the past month, the debate has
degenerated into a cat and dog fight
on the liquor question.
At the time the liquor issue was in
terjected into the discussion, it seemed
as if the food bill was about to be
passed.
That was why the liquor fight start
ed. The food spectators and hoard
ers, knowing that the moment the bill
was passed, they would be forced to
stop picking the pockets of the Amer
ican people, saved themselves by subt-
ly starting the fight over whiskey and
beer.
Everyone who has sat in the gallery
of either the senate or the house and
listened to the drool about whiskey

Commission Advises State Banks

MAY PAY 6 PER CENT
FOR TIME DEPOSITS
Permission Granted to Retain
Old Rate to Help Funds in
the State

State banks will not be allowed to
advertise that their deposits are guar
anteed until these banks have been
approved by the depositors guaranty
commission and the guaranty made
an actual fact. '> X
The commission adopted this ruling
yesterday, when there was called to
it's attention the fact that some
banks, probably through a misinter-
probation of the law, are now adver-
tising that their deposits are guar
anteed by the state. Such guaranty
probably will not be made effective
until some time after January /, 1918,
when the legislature contemplated
that the act would become actually
operative. ,
May Pay 6 Per Cent.
Although Is per cent was establish
ed by the last assembly as the legal
rate of interest, because of fears that
a reduction in the interest rate would
result in state banks losing large de-
posits of outside money at time
when every cent North Dakota can
command is needed in harvesting and
moving it's 1917 crops, the commits
sion adopted resolution permitting
the banks for the pr. sent to, pay =
per cent. Authority to do this was
vested in the commission by the bank
guaranty act.
80 I% To Finance Themselves.
Because no appropriation was made
for the expenses of the board, the
commissioners will finance them
selves out of their own pockets and
will look. to the next assembly to re-
imburse them for money actually paid
out in travelling expenses and to pay
them the $5+per diem which the act
provides for the three appointive
mem oers. An opinion Of the attorney
general, read to the commission yes
terday, held that no legal approprla-
ton for expenses was made by the
act.
State Examiner Waters, who is Sec
retary Of the commission, will pro-
vide for printing out of the funds of
his office, and ask the next assem-
bly, to reimburse his department. Mr..
Waters has made formal application
to the emergency commission for
$4,000 to provide for expenses Of the
commission, but it is not anticipated
that the commission, which meets
can act favorably on this
petition, as it hasn't the money.

Paris, July 14.-France today cele-
brated it's national fete with fervor

Russian revolution has made French
men realize more wildly the meaning
of the great epoch, which, dawning in
America in 1776, eliminated in 1889

it's full fruition in the destruction of
the last bastile of a5solutism by the
forces of allied democracy.
''Lt is pity" said Paul Deschanel,
president of the chamber of Deputies,

WASHINGTON WRITER DECLARES
FOOD SPECTATORS ARE HIDING ::o :ss.
BEHIND WH|SKEY AND BEER ISSUE

!, and beer which is miscalled debate
cannot but have been impressed by
the utter lack of sincerity of 80 per
cent of it.
l am willing to admit that there
may be A FEW senators and repre-.
sentatives who have shouted and
waved their arms about the demon
rum who are so unintelligent that they
can't appreciate what monkeys the
food sharks are making of them.
BUT THE GREAT MAJORITY OF
THOSE IN BOTH HOUSES WHO
HAVE DELAYED AND ARE DELAY
ING THE PASSAGE OF THE FOOD
BILL BY PROLOtNGING THE DE-
BATE ABOUT LIQUOR ARE DELHI
ERATELY AND WiLLFULLY betray-
ing the people Of the United States in
the interest of the rapacious food
spectators and hoarders!
Every days delay has added mill
ions to the profits of the great con-
Germs which handle the food from the
time it leaves the producer until it
reaches the retailer and the consumer
And, what is more, every days de-
lay has fastened the grip of these
great concerns on the nations food
reserves and made it increasingly diff
ficult, if not impossible, to release 1t
without resorting to the most desper-
ate measures.
About the middle Of June, Hoover,
after a most careful survey of the
whole food situation, told the leaders
in congress and issued a statement to
the public that July 1 was the outside
limit when he must have authority to
take necessary steps to control the
prices of this years harvest if the
consumer was to get the protection he
was entitled to.
Congress paid no more attention to
Hoover's statement, which was really
an eloquent plea for action, than
though he had talked in strange
language which they did not under
stand.
July I came and went and the
whiskey and beer debate con-
tinued without interruption.
in the meantime the greater part OF
this years harvest has fallen into the
foul Jaws of the food sharks and the
rest of it will be there before the
food bill becomes, a law, if it ever
does
IT is GOING TO BE ABOUT TEN
TIMES AS HARD TO CATCH THE
SHAPKS AND GET THE FOOD OUT
OF THEIR BELLIES AS 1T WOULD
HAVE BEEN TO KEEP 1T FROM
GETTING THERE.
That is why congress is still debat-
ing about whiskey and beer: why it
will continue to do so until the
sharks bellies are full.
There is no such lack Of food in
this country as to justify the high
prices, in many cases prohihitive
to families Of small incomes. This
is proved by statement on cold
