Washington, July IA senate
agreement to vote on President

Democratic senators obtained the
agreement for a vote only after
they had consented to strip the bill
of some of its more drastic features,
including the stringent prohibition
provisions. So farreaching was the
revision demanded, in fact, that all
day conferences of the Democratic
steering committee and the agricul-
tural committee resulted in presen-
tation of a substitute for the whole
measure.
Unless strong and efficient gov

Mr. Hoover reports, the farmers will
face a slump in wheat prices and
will be caught in sit

which already is resulting in actual
REIMBURSEMENT" in the great
centers. The speculator,
it is declared, is taking large part

Petrograd, July 11,-Halicz, the
strategic key to Lemberg, capital of
Galicia, has been captured by the
Russians says dispatch from the
Petrograd correspondent.
General Korniloff's operations in
Galicia along a front of twenty
miles have broken the Austro-Ger-
man front between Halicz and the
Carpathians, and already the Rus
sian cavalry has pressed forward for
G distance of sixteen miles. To the
west of the Dniester, as a result of
the Russian forward movement
Halicz has been hemmed in from
the south and southwest and the
Russians now are menacing the
Halicz bridge head
West of Stanislau toward Kalusz
and Dolima the Russians have pene-
trated the Teutonic lines to a depth
of nearly seven miles and between
Stanislau and Halicz they have wild
ened their wedges. In their retire
ment, apparently made hastily, from
the large amount of guns and mill
tary stores captured by the Rus
SLAMS, the Austro-Germans failed to
make stand at two rivers, the
Lukovitza and the Luzka. 1t is
probable that they may entrench ON
the west bank of the Lomnica The
evacuation of Halicz makes a re-
treat from the Brzezany-Ziochoff-
Brody line by the Austro-Germans

PRICE FIXING ON FOOD

The regulation of food prices is
not so easy as it seems. A state
ment in congress says that the food
minister of Great Britain issued an
order fixing the price of dairy pro-
ducts The dairymen were not sat
isfied with the price; they butcher
ed their mileh cows. There was a
distinct national, social and econo-
mic loss that could not be repaired
within two or three years. Great
Britain issued an order instituting
a three-course dinner. They kept
account of the results, and it was
found that the increased eonsump-
ton of meat and bread under the
dinner order more than
offset the economy. The people cut
out the side dishes and limited
themselves to the more substantial
foods. That order was revoked.
Great Britain instituted one meat
less day a week. They kept account
of the results, and it was found that
the the increased consumption of
bread on the meatless day more
than offset the diminished consump-
ton of meat They revoked that
order. Those orders we're issued
with the best possible intention,
and. it must be admitted, with as
much wisdom as man can eoncen-I
trate upon the most serious con-
Germs Of either private or national
life. Food conservation must be by
aid to the government toI
be fully effective.

THE STATES WASTEFULNESS
A small army of clerks, assist
ants, typists, wrappers, mailers and
folders are at work in the office
of the secretary of state mailing
out Kansas automobile license tags
at the rate of 5000 a day. All the
tags go out by parcel post and this
has added to the worries of Uncle
Sam-so much that he has added a
force of six extra clerks to the To
peka office to handle the business
increase due to the passage of ey-
cry tag for the 100000 or more
motor cars in Kansas The 5000
tags sent out each day weigh three
tons-6000 pounds.-T Topeka Capt.
tai
Think of the intelligence of en-
ploying an army" of clerks and
sending out tons of tags by mail at
4 cost of $10,500 for postage alone
ghen the tags could be sent BY
freight to the county treasurers and
delivered when the license is paid!
The state wastes over 10000 a
year in this one department alone
and then urges great economy in
every home to help win the war.
Why not begin an efficiency cam
paign in the state house? A bust
ness house that followed the state
plan of handling tags would go
bankrupt.

iors at least had done four years

the state board, the work had been
inspected by inspectors who draw
$1,000 a year and expenses, they
had been examined every semester
by their teachers, had been grad

DO the Union Pacific engineers

deaf? If not, why does each locomo-
tive that enters town when within
500 feet of the operator emit six to
eight shrieks for the signal board

nine miles away? 1t is estimated
that the steam wasted by the U. P.
