WHEAT MUST Be
BROUGHT FORWARD

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-Wheat re-
Quired to meet winter needs of mills
IN eastern and central sections must
be brought forward at once in order
to take advantage Of the remaining
period of great lakes transportation,
it was announced here today by
James F. Bell, chairman of the milling
division of the United States food ad-
ninistration. IF this is not accom-
llished," he said. I'VE shall be de-
pendent upon all retail movement,
which is already tasked to the limit
and which necessarily will be further
reduced with the, approach of winter
weather conditions.
In moving wheat nearer to the cen
ter of distribution. even though In so
doing we have temporarily reduced
the -four output, we have really insur-
ed greater production and distribu-
ton during the next five or six
months, until navigation opens, which
might be SO curtailed as to affect the
public interest"
| Mr.. Bell warned mills that because
of short crop of hard wheat they
may not expect to receive quantities
as large as heretofore and that necas
sarily the quality of their established
brands will be affected through the
Iuse of soft wheat. The situation
1"calls for the spirit OF self-denial,
Mr. Bell said.

CHANGE SAILERs TO STEAMERS
Is Proposal TO the Shipping Board by
Thomas A. Edison.

Washington, d. c., Nov. l6.-Conver-
sion of more than million tons of
American sailing vessels into steamships
was proposed to the shipping board yes
terday by Thomas A. Edison. The in
ventor's suggestion will be made the
subject of a thorough investigation
Because of the peculiar construction of
sailing ships, it would be necessary, Mr..
Edison said, to equip them with twin
screws. Thus equipped, their hulls would
bear the strain better, and at the same
time they would develop considerably
more speed than if carrying but a single
propeller. Mr. Edison viii 20 over de-
tails Of his plan with Rear Admiral
Caps, general manager of the emergen-
cy feet corporation, and il il appears
practicable the engineering division Of
the corporation viii take it up.
Although the placing Of engines and
coal bunkers in the ships would cut
down their cargo space, the superior
speed would more than make up for the
difference, in the opinion Of Mr.. Edison.
American sailing vessels are not nov
permitted to enter the war zone, as they
are easy submarine targets.
There are under American registry
more than 5000 sailing vessels of con.
more than l.OO0.0O0 tonnage
The government also viii have under is
control soon some 100000 tons Of sailing
ships turned over by the French gov
eminent.

GRAVE ISSUE
Newspapers of London Comment Ex-
tensively on Letter of Lord
Northcliffe

London, Nov. 1.-THE newspapers
comment extensively on Lord North
eliffe's letter to Premier Lloyd George, in
which he declined appointment as air
minister and criticized the government
on the ground that it was dallying with
such problems as unity of war control,
eradication of sedition, mobilization of
man power and introduction of compul-
sorry food rationing.
The Globe says the gravest of all Lord
Northcliffe's warnings is that concerning
the temper of the American nation, that
the American people think, and think
rightly, that Great Britain's rulers have
muddled the war.
This newspaper declares the letter,
while addressed to the prime minister, is
in truth written to the nation, and adds:
IF we do not heed it we shall deserve
any fate that may befall us
The Pail Mall Gazette: THE present
government has been almost year in
office and it would not be too soon for
the premier to see whether it cannot be
revised in the interests of greater energy
and clearer perception of what is meant
by war"
The Westminster Gazette:
"Other distinguished men have felt
like this, but none of them hitherto have
expressed their sentiments in this blunt
vernacular or made refusal of such high
office for the occasion for lecturing the
prime minister on the shortcomings Of
his administration Those who
make others scapegoats are always in
fear of being made scapegoats them
selves"
