WAR GROWS
MORE BARBAROUS EACH DAY

1T Has Reached the Plane of Delibe-
rate Murder for Everv Shin Sunk
Death by Slow Torture is Fate
Melted Out to Submarine Captains
Who Let Big Liners Escape
Washington Cor, June IA. Green's
boro Daily News.
The submarine war grows more
barbarous every day. It. has now
reached the plane Of deliberate muir
der for every ship sunk and will SO
continue to the end. It is not the
fault of the Germans that every tor
pedo does not produce a Lusitania
massacre.
death by slow torture for subma-
rlne capta1Hs-who let big passenger
liners escape them is reported to be
the fate melted out by Won Tirpitz."
That is the Kaiser's unrestricted
submarine warfare, in the words of
the man who probably knows more
about the human side Of the sea trag
edy than any other-certainly more
than any other American.
He is Wesley Frost, American con-
sui at Queenstown, the port on the
southwest coast of Ireland, where all
the Atlantic ocean lanes to Britain
come together. Off the shores near
Queenstown the thousands of ships
which feed Britain pass by day and
night.
Frost is in Washington for rest.
For over two years he has been in at
tendance at the funerals of merchant
ships struck by the under water ter
ror. 1t has been his task to collect
the evidence as to IS sinkings in
which Americans were imperiled or
slaughtered. He has seen the ceme-
teries on the Irish hillsides dotted
with fresh mounds. He has heard
the shrieks Of mothers for their MUIR
dered babies, seen men stark mad
with turtures of hunger and thirst
brought in from days, and nights in
foodless lifeboats.
1t is with difficulty that he can be
induced to talk, but when he does, the
full throated indignation of this clear
cut young American is almost terri
BILE in it's intensity.
"The German guilt is double" sait
Frost today. "In the first place, NJ
civilized government would have re
sorted to such methods, even when i
was possible to sink ships occasion
ally without numbering non-combat
ants. Now that the arming of mer
chant ships and the effectiveness o
the patrols make it impossible 70

ing, they would drop it if they wer

double its capacity this year. Likel
the utilization of cottonseed oil mills
for pressing oil from peanuts and
soy beans, sweet potatoes are can
ned after most Of the fruits and
vegetables have passed out of sea-
son, and the canning season thus
heightened.
Sweet potatoes make good potato
flour. It is mixed with wheat flour
and produces fine pastries and cakes.
A flour made from the Irish potato,
mixed with wheat flour, is used in
making the German 3war bread,
but it has less nutriment, less sugar
and the taste does not compare with
the flour from the sweet potato,
which is attractive.
The Department of Agriculture
says it is possible that the potato
will become one of the chief sources
of alcohol in the United States. Ex-
periments have shown that 1000
? pounds of sweet potatoes can be
/ grown on one acre. 1t may be fairly
! stated in general way that one
, bushel of sweet potatoes will yield
one gallon Of industrial alcohol. In
most of the eight Southern States
mentioned the manufacture and sale
! of alcoholic liquors has been prohib-
! tied by law and some distilleries and
breweries are idle. Such plants could
be utilized for the manufacture of
! denatured alcohol and other by-pro-
/ ducts of the sweet potato.
In Maine, especially throughout
the Aroonstook potato regions, the
Gull, damaged and lower grades OF
: Irish potatoes are converted into
: starch in local starch factories. The
: average starch content of the Maine
Irish potato is 1929 per cent. Tht
| percentage Of starch in the swee
potato is greater than in the white
!, Irish potato. In all cases over q
2 per cent of starch was obtained from
2 South Carolina sweet potatoes, ane
: in one instance as high as "a pei
t cent. One acre has produced 26Ol
5 pounds of starch.
l The value of the sweet potato a:
t cattle food is not generally under

: tatoes are nearly equal to one bush
. ell of corn in feed value. One-hal-
t pound of colt anseed meal or one

HYMN BEFORE ACTION

The earth is full of anger,
49, The seas are dark with wrath,
The Nations in their harness
Go up against our path!
Ere yet we loose the legions-
Ere yet we draw the blade,
Jehovah of the Thunders,
Lord God of Battles, aid!
High lust and forward bearing,
Proud heart, rebellious brow
Deaf ear and soul uncaring,
We seek Thy mercy now.
The sinner that foreswore Thee,
The fool that passed Thee by,
Our times are known before Thee
Lord grant us strength to die!
From panic, pride and terror,
Revenge that knows no rein
Light haste and lawless error,
Protect us yet again.
Cloak Thou our undeserving,
Make firm the shuddering breath,
In silence and answering
To taste Thy lesser death!
Fen now their vanguard gathers,
Fen now we face the fray
AS Thou didst help our fathers,
Help Thou our host today!
Fulfilled of signs and wonders,
In life and death made clear,
Jehovah of the Thunders,
Lord God of Battles, hear!

TO ORGANIZE HOUSEWIVES
All to be Enlisted in Great Food Con
seryatiOn Army


Preliminary work Of organizing the
country's housewives into great
food conservation army was started
Monday by Herbert C. Hoover. The
task Of enrolling them as actual MEM
bers of the food administration is I'M
dertaken, at the direction Of Presi-
dent Wilson, without awaiting the ac-
ton of Congress on the administra-
ton food bills.
Actual registration Of the women
will not begin until July /, but Mr..
Hoover now is organizing his staff
to carry out the work. Operation of
the plan will be in the hands Of four
main divisions-an advisory council
of women, an advisory council OF
household economy experts, COM
mittee on voluntary service and the
women's section Of the Council of
National Defense and State defense
councils.
Actual administration will be along
five lines-domestic science instruc-
ton, publicity, supervision Of mem
bership, development Of State rela-
tons and cooperation OF organlza-
tons.
Motion pictures will be used, Mr.
Hoover announced, to teacH IoOu coIi-
servation measures and the elimlna-
ton Of food waste.
Mr.. Hoover announced plans fol
enlisting the aid of the country's
summer schools in teaching household
economics. A comprehensive course
in home conservation Of food will be
proposed by committee Of Agrii
cultural Department experts and OF
ficials Of the Bureau Of Education
for presentation to the schools.
Through the schools Mr.. Hoove'
expects to reach some 100000 teach
ers, who will return in the fall tt
about $4,000 communities. Later tn
plan contemplates the teaching O.
food conservation in every publ
school in the nation and in most o
the colleges.

Gen. Chang Hsun Now is Dictator OF
China

Picking Dispatch, June Is.
General Chang Hsun no wis dlcta-
tor, President Ii Yuan Hung being
little more than a figure head. The
insurgents are calling a convention
at Tien Tsin for the purpose of form,
ing a provisional government headed
by the dictator, who is expected to
act as president and premier.
General Chang Hsun's motives are
obscure, but it is believed he is at
tempting to obtain from the former
leaders Of the Manchu dynasty an
agreement fer restoration of the en-
pire. He has urged the president to
form a cabinet as soon as possible,
suggesting that a provisional council
similar to that in Russia be estab-
lished and that a declaration Of war;
against Germany be then made.
Southern leaders who are congre-
eating in Canton assert the president
Signed the mandate for dissolution Of
parliament under pressure. They say
they will fight for maintenance OF the
constitutional rights.

Quiet in Dublin as
! Convention Proceeds

a Healthy Sign by Press in
Ireland

Dublin, July 26.-Even fewer people
assembled on College Green this morn
snr 70 witness the arrival OF the dele
Gates 70 the Irish convention, IN ses-
l.,or here. No individual caused either
l,nv demonstration, admiration or hos
,tiI;tv. The complete absence OF puonc
isxcitement is treated by the Dublin

The unanimous selection OF Sir Horace
PIunkett 10 be chairman Of the con-
wention Is welcomed by the newspapers
OF the various political sides.
At to-day's session of the convention
the official report announces a prelim-
dnary procedure committee was ap-
pointed to prepare proposals, and II
was agreed that the convention ad-
iourn until August s, TO enable the
chairman, in conjunction with the sec
retaries, TO issue TO the members In
circular form the material necessary TO
enable the convention to proceed with
tts task.
The preliminary procedure commit
tee then held its first meeting, contin-
nes the official account, and decided TO
have a draft of the standing orders Tor
the convention at once draws up. The
committee also asked that Sir Francis
Hopwood, the conventions secretary,
submit TO the members of the commit
Tee information in regard 70 the pro-
eedure adopted BY the convention that
