New York, April 27.-In a spirit
of patriotism some American worthy
the name, having a fortune in excess
of $64000,000, has paid his income tax
six weeks in advance, and thereby lost
in interest $3.50, which Uncle Sam
may collect. Who the person is must

U-BOATS MAKE FOOD
PROBLEM ABROAD ACUTE

Washington, April 27.-Evidence
OF growing success for The ruthless
German submarine blockade has fore
ed the problem OF supplying the en-
tente quickly with food and other nee
essltles sharply to the forefront of
the American governments war pro-
gram.
Aroused by information brought to
this country by the British and French
war missions, President Wilson and
his cabinet set about today to launch
with its full force as speedily as pos
sible their campaign to break down
the blockade, planned by the admin
lstration as the nations first physical
stroke against Germany.
Must Get Ships at Once
The food problem occupied the cab
met almost to the exclusion OF all
the other important war questions be-
fore the government Afterward it
was indicated that the recent German
submarine ravages were considered
so successful that the United States
must marshal its resources immedi-
ately to put more merchant ships in
commission, to help devise some
means OF fighting submarines and to
insure greater yield of foodstuffs
to offset the increasing destruction of
food cargoes in the war zone.
Members of the cabinet took to
the meeting great quantity of in
formation given by the visiting mis-
sions, including plea by some mem
bcrs OF the French commission that
America must act quickly if the world
is to be saved from famine Recent
declarations in the British parliament
were reviewed as supplementing this
evidence. There was no attempt to
conceal the impression that the food
problem had taken on any aspect max
ing it incomparably the most pressing
question facing the United States in
its efforts to stem the progress of its
enemies.
To Adopt Enegetic Measures
Although details Of the steps to be
taken we're not revealed, there were
indications tonight that more ener-
getic measures might be expected to
food situation in the Entente coun-
tries. These measures, it was pre-
dicted, would be the first to take
form as a result of the international
war conferences here.
Acceleration of the shipping boards

ships to carry foodstuffs is regarded
