OF the Allied conferees in the war capital
of the world into effect.
An army of laborers is rapidly being mob
ilized by Secretary of Labor Wilson to
start building the 1000 fast wooden ships to
bridge the Atlantic and supply our Euro
pean allies with food despite the submarine
menace.
Congressional committees and Secretary
OF Agriculture Houston speeded up national

Ioodstuffs and all supplies may be kept

missions today definite accomplishments
began to emerge for the first time, giving
some inkling of how the work Is being done.
There will be no definite day-by-day
statement. from the conferees that they are
attacking given problems of money, men,
food, clothing shipping or other things.
Nor will there probably be any fiat an
houncement from day to day OF the things
accomplished.
There are two reasons for this. One Is
that the discussions of various points Will
be too protracted and involved to permit
such action; and the second Is that the Al
lies do not want to tip their hands AS
one high official expressed 1t today:
I'VE want, for the sake of the American

wanted by any Of our patrons, it
is up TO them to let us know.
The above method is the best
