Washington.-If the coal situation
grows worse and can not be corrected
through regular Government chan
nels, the Government will use what
ever powers are necessary, to compel
the production of coal to meet the
country's needs"
This was the message to striking
coal miners of Indiana, Ohio and ILL.,
nois from DR.. H. A. Garfield, United
States Fuel Administrator. DR.. Gar
field did not send the message until
informed by John P. White, of the
United Mine Workers of America,
now his official adviser, that the thou
sands of striking miners are beyond
the control of union officials. At the
same time Mr.. White advised DR.. Gar.
field that the strikers are going out
in defiance of union agreements. He
told the Fuel Administrator that the
strikes may spread.

GERMANS BRIBED THE UMPIRE
Carl Emil Junck Tells How Teutons
Are Tricky In other Ways

Carl Emil Junck, dye importer of
Chicago, was talking about Germany.
"The German spirit today Is tricky,
shifty and false" he said. "The Ger
mans today think it's clever to cheat.
Their war, with its violation of every
war law and every international agree

Here is an illustration of the Ger

leg-guards were very old and shabby,

game:

amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by

The kidneys should receive some as

more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder

Observation-Disclosures efforts are
being made by pro-German agents in
the United States to defeat the second
liberty loan, according to reports made
to the Treasury Department. The un-
derground work has borne fruit in
scattered localities from Minnesota to
Texas. where weak attempts have been
made to discourage subscriptions. The
work of the pro-German agents, Off
cials assert, has been carried on for
more than two weeks. Some of the
workers have had the temerity, reports
to the Treasury indicate, to conduct
their operations in the National Cap
ital. Official recognition of the propa-
ganda against the loan was voiced by
Colonel Herbert NJ Lloyd, represent

he added, has been made by seeking
to misrepresent the patriotism of the

count of the proceedings of the confer
ence, which was behind closed doors,
issued by the Treasury Department,
reads as follows:
"In convincing refutation of the
SANDER, which was to the effect that
the men of the new national army op-
posed the war, Colonel Lord announced
that subscriptions from the army for
the loan already aggregate s26,00O,0 900,
and that some of the subscriptions
were written in foreign languages.

Parliament Must Solve Problem.

Turin.-The Italian Parliament has
reopened it's session at Rome under
peculiar circumstances, two facts be.
ing so prominent as even to make a
ministerial crisis possible. Owing to
their nature they probably will be dis
cussed only in secret session. One has
to do with serious riots which took
place here, due, in part, to the delay
in providing the town with sufficient
bread, and, in part, to protect dis
content. The other question concerns
the general food crisis throughout
Italy, which led to the resignation of
the Food Controller, Giuseppe Can
epa, whose place has been taken by
General Alfieri.

FOOD CONTROLLER FIRST NECESSITY OF WAR
is OPINION GROWING IN CONGRESS
81 OLSON GARDNER

Washington, April THAT food
controller is the first necessity Of the
war is the opinion growing in con-
gress, and that Herbert Hoover, late
ly of the Belgian relief commission,
is the man for the job is the opinion
at the White House
The food problem is as urgent as
it is serious. Widespread suffering
followed by food riots are almost in
evitable if steps are not taken at once
to conserve the supplies and regulate
prices.
Sec'y of Agriculture Houston call
ed attention to the shortage Of wheat
and Irish potatoes as long ago as on
March Z. Since then all news as to
other crops has been bad. The latest
as to wheat is the worst. W.. B.
Snow, the crop expert, estimates the
winter wheat yield at Ill per cent.
This is worse than the worst crop
ever recorded, when in 1904 the
figure was 1865. This record has
never since been Appropriated.
Even so conservative a publication
as the National City Banks monthly
bulletin, uses the following alarming
language:
The closing months of the crop
year finds this country with a small
er stock of all kinds of food than at
any time in many years, and, when
the world situation is considered, the
outlook becomes such as to demand
the most serious attention of our
people We havet referred to this
subject in each issue of this pUblica-
ton in recent months, but as time
passes the Importance Of arOusing a
nationwide interest becomes more
evident.
''The government report of grain
stocks on March 1 shows that at best
there will be no caTTy-OVer wheat.
There is not enough in the country
to allow of exports to July equaling

Of shipping, ocean charges are much
less from America than from Aus
tTalia or India, which are the only
other countries which can supply
much wheat between now and July.
Argentina has now put an embargo
upon exports of wheat and flour.
Latest reports from Russia are that
there is no accumulation of wheat at
the seapOrts, and that owing to in
adequate storage facilities in the in
terror much of the surplus production
Of that country has been wasted.
''All the grains are selling in our
primary markets at higher prices for
cash than for the May delivery, in
dicating that the supply scarcely
meets the current demand. Millers
are paying 81 per bUshel for wheat
at Kansas City, corn has sold as high
as $1.19 per bUshel in the same mar
ket, and oats are bringing several
cents above the Chicago price at rail-
way stations in Central Illinois for
shipment to the south.

vanced during the past month to
