Washington, March 30.-At the open
ing of congress Senator owen will ask
of his proposed amend
ments TO the federal reserve act, par
ticularly the one impounding the float
ing gold Of the country in the treas
ury department
The senator regards 1t as an emer'
gency war measure and will cite the
experience Of the Bank of England
and the effect Of the war upon Eng
lands gold supply in proof OF the ne
cessity for action here.
There is gold supply Of about eight
hundred million dollars floating be-
tween banks or held in vaults which,
Senator owen says, does no particular
work, but would become OF a poten-
tial value il sent to the federal treas.
ury
The amendment permits member
banks to deposit their gold with the
government and to issue federal re-
serve notes; also it would have a
double advantage that of acting as a
reserve with tho government.

Germany Man Power Diminishing az
Allied Offensive Gains Strength.

Germany has made her supreme
military effort and failed.
Under the terrific continuous on
slaughts Of the allied armies, she is
losing her man power today at the
rate of more than 10000 a month.
Her losses grow heavier and heavier
Her ability to transfer troops from
the eastern front to the western and
vice versa to meet the big drives has
been checked. Her resources in mon
are diminishing at the very moment
military emergencies demand they
should increase.
On the other hand the British and
French armies have reached their full
strength in men and material. And
Americas great army is yet to come.
In the British offensive at Ypres,
Germany. has been obliged to engage
IS divisions in the last 10 days.
Twenty-Five fresh divisions were put
into action by the crown prince be-
fore Verdun and As fresh divisions

COUNTRY FACES
COAL SHORTAGE
Situation Attributed to Demand and
not to Laxity of the Producers.

" aslington. Oct IO.-Existence Ci
a general coal shortage was ad1nittc i
tonight by the geological survey,
which attributes the situation not to
the failure OF producers to do their
best, but the unprecedented demand.
The tremendous increase in man
ufacturing and transportation activity
this year, statement issued said
has created demand for soft coal
in excess OF any in the past, an in
crease in demand that is difficult to
measure in terms of tons, but that is
certainly more than the 10 per cent
by which production has increased.
To meet this demand the operators
have been mining coal at rate never
before equaled. The shortage is no.
due to the failure Mi the soft coal
mines to produce more coal than in
the past, for the country, on Septem-
Der /, was about a month ahead of
last year in output and is expected to
finish the year with an increase of 10
per cent over 1916, the banner year.
and IS per cent over 1915.
In the second week of July, 1877,
the average daily production was
more than 100000 tons, the highest
point yet attained; in the middle OF
August the lowest rate for the sum-
mer. I,h3Sooo tons, was recorded, and
in last September the daily rate was
| $4,000 TONS.

WON'T FIX LOW HOG PRICES
But Government May Guarantee
Farmers in Order to Increase
Production.

Strong City. kas., Oct. l.s~\s the
result of many inquiries from stock
men and farmers of this county re-
ceived by Congressman Dudley Doo-
little since his return from Washing
ton, this week in regard to action the
food administration will take in regu-
lating the prices OF hogs and cattle,
Mr. Doolittle this afternoon sent the
following telegram to Herbert {.
Hoover, food administrator
Papers state you will reduce prices
of hogs to ten cents and cattle pro-
portionatcly. Thi, congressional dis
trict produces such live stock in large
quantities and | must be able to an
swer authoritatively the intentions OF
the food administration. Buying for
feeding has come to almost dead
standstill. An immediate answer will
stabilize conditions"
In reply Mr.. Hoover sent the fol
lowing telegram to Congressman
Doolittle:
"You can give the widest publicity
to the fact that we have no intention
whatever of fixing prices on hogs.
We are considering some form Of
guarantee to farmers if they will pro-
duce hogs and we have already issued
an undertaking that will, through
holding up the prices of exports, ex-
ert Our every power to maintain
prices for hogs that will return the

NEXT INCREMENT MAY BE
CALLED BEFORE SPRING
Second National Army Probably Will
be Sent to IS Cantonments in
December or January.

| Washington. Oct. I2.-Discussio,
of the advisability of expediting the
call for the second increment army
now is in progress and il Is likely
that the date may be fixed for some
time in December or January.
Mobilization of the first increment
of 6S7, 900 is now far enough ad-
vanced to show clearly that there will
be big deficiency for the seventeen
national army divisions. More than
100000 of the first increment arc still
to be assembled. but it already is ew-
dent that there will be available at
the sixteen cantonments quarters for
an additional regiment at each post
and at some for full brigade of two
regiments.
The strength of the new regimental
organization is 5000 men. With a
regiment lacking at each cantonment,
this alone would mean a shortage OF
nearly 100000 men. In addition there
has been authorized a separate divis-
ion OF negro troops, which means
nearly 10000 men withdrawn from
the original number assigned to the
sixteen cantonments
The shortage is due partially to the
medical corps and the service battal-
ions needed behind the fighting lines
Eventually there will be 100000 men
in the last-named service alone, and
aviation and medical service will take
nearly as many more. though not all
of them will be taken from the ma
tional army.
Operating to delay the calling out
OF the second increment to make
good these shortages are several fac
tors. Clothing and equipment is COM
ing forward only at the rate that can
meet the demands of the forces al
ready called. and the railroads have
been overhurdcncd with moving the
armies and its necessities without
freight shipments vital to
the allies.
Fixing the date OF the call for the
second increment probably hinges
also upon the careful study being
made by Provost Marshal General
~rovder and his assistants of the re.
suits of the plan followed in assem-
bling the men called first.

EAT LESS SUGAR, MUMFORD
ASKS
Americans Asked to Substitute Corn
Bread for All Food Made
From Wheat.

Columbia, Mo-. Oct. I2.-America
could, without hardship, reduce its
sugar consumption by 80 per cent,
said Dean +. b. Mumford, newly ap-
pointed Food Administrator for Mis-
souri,. on his return from Washington,
d. c., today.
Mumford conferred with members
of the National Food Administration
on his new duties. Summarizing his
conclusion, he said: 1T has been def
initely determined that there is 4
worldwide scarcity of wheat. fat,
sugar and meat, and it will be one Of
the problems OF the Food Admins
tration to see that these products are
distributed in such way as to pro-
vide, for both our Allies and ourselves.
"The chief activity of the Food
Administration at this time will be a
nationwide campaign, in which ev-
cry man. woman and child will be
called on to conserve wheat and
sugar. All will be invited to eat more
corn bread.
statistics on the consumption of
sugar show what can be accomplished.
In the United States we use 90
pounds per capita annually, while the
average in England, France and Italy
is only FL pounds. We can certainly
reduce our consumption without
hardship"
Mumford said that the Food Ad-
was working on a plan
for the Standardization of bread
loaves.
At meeting in Jefferson City
Monday plans will be made for a
State conservation campaign. Num-
ford will preside, and there will be
present the chairmen of the county
of defense and members of
the patriotic speakers bureau. Gov.
Gardner will speak.
Mumford will continue to carry on
his duties as head of the College Of
His headquarters as
Food Administrator will be in Col
umbia.
