WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-President Wilson, Vice President Marshall, cab met officers, foreign diplomats and many other distinguished guests gath cred tonight at the annual dinner of the Gridiron club. Patriotism was the keynote with Americanism and dem- ocracy emphasized in the several speeches and skits.
 New government departments ere 'ated since the war. such as the com mittee on public information, the food administration, shipping board, war in- dustries, and the war trade board, furnished the topics for much of the fun, and the meeting of the high con- missioners of France, Great Britain and Japan with an American representa- tive was made the, occasion for a good natured pun on the now famous Fourth or July message, concerning a sub marine attack on American transports

 WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-With rec ord crops grown this year the na- tion's farm and livestock production must be stimulated to a still higher efficiency during the coming twelve months if domestic demands and big needs of the allies are to be ade quately met Secretary Houston says in his annual report to congress today.
 That the farmers of the nation have generously responded to the appeals for increased production, and that much has already been done 10 insure a large supply of foods and fOOdstuffs," says the report, "justifies no let-down in their ac- tivities or in those of all agricultural agencies. On the contrary, even greater efforts must be put forth in the coming months.
 There must be no breakdown on the farms, no failure of foods, feed stuffs or clothing. l cannot empha - size too strongly the urgent neces- sity of doing everything possible to bring about a still further increase in the production of all essential commodities, particularly of the staple crops and livestocks."
 Confidence in the ability of the farmers to meet the unusual emerg- ency caused by Americas entrance into the war is reiterated by the secretary. Their willing co-opera tion since April has been prolific of encouraging crop increases, Inc says, and there is no doubt but tha- they have a complete and ready comprehension of the demands to bt supplied as the war proceeds.

Robert e. Peary Urging Ma.
ton to Establish Aero
natic Department.

In an article appearing today in the
Army and Navy News of San Fran
cisco, Robert E. Peary, discoverer Of
the North pole and a rear admiral OH
the retired list, strongly advocates a
Department of Aeronautics to handle
the aeroplanes now being saddled on
10th the army and navy departments.
Mr. Peary comes ont for a string of
aero stations from Brownsville, Tex,
to San Diego, with several bases in
Imperial county. The originator OF
this defensive measure states that had
there been proper aerial preparedness
at the time of the Columbus raids that
Villas bandits would have been cap
tured within few days after the per
pctration of the outrage.
At the present time San Diego is
equipped with aeroplanes and from
the coast east to New Mexico there
is a wide gap without aerial protec
ton. Mr.. Peary plans to have 1000
planes under service by the new de-
partment.
1t is understood that his scheme has
been given practically official sanction

HELGE TAENbERG
EXPLAINS HIS
POSITION
Takes Exceptions to Article
in a Morning Paper-Is
Member Home Guards

Helge A. F. Thenberg takes ex-
ceptions to a statement appearing
il morning paper under date cf
April 22, in wh;c!!:: the well known
engineer is said to have taken out
citizenship papers in San Diego coun-
ty and was contemplating entering
the United States army.
Mr.. Thenberg desires it to be
known that his first papers were
filed with the Imperial county clerk
and that his connection with the army
is solely as member of the Impe-
rial County Home Guards.
Also, that his service in the Swed-
ish army was during time of alb
solute peace, thus obviously eliminat-
ing opportunity for distinctions as
related.
Mr.. Thenberg has been a strong
advocate for several years of a de
fense unit such as the Home Guards
in Imperial Valley and is at present
/. member of that organization. Mr..
Thenberg feels that he was placed in
an embarrassing position and desires
his friends to know the facts.
