Saws Stimulated Production anc

Defeat U-B0ats.
NEED FOOD AND SHIPS
United States and Canada MUSE rseo
Allies to Make Victory Certain
Saws Administrator-Wheat
and Pork Are Needs.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The hgh
AGAINST the submarine would be Won
If the United States and Canada could
stimulate production and erect econ
omies so as to feed the Aiiles 1ro!if
this continent without sendlag a snip
further afield than the Atlantic sea-
board, says Food Administrator HooV'
or in a statement reviewing the World
food situation.
Ships, wheat and hogs are the great
needs emphasized by Mr.. Hoover. ne
said deepest concern had been caused
bv The fact that in spite of h1gh prices
this country's pork consumption nao
increased during the war until Proauc'
ton had been outstripped; situations
that must be changed.
IF we discontinue EXPORTS MT
Hoover AIDED, eve will move the Ger
man line from France to the Atlantlc
seaboard. Pork products have an IN
fluence in this present world situa'
rion wider than one would ordinarily
attribute to them.
'The production Of fats is today a.
critical necessity for the preservation
of the Allies and the maintenance OF
their constancy in the war. Every
pound of fat is as sure of service as
every bullet, and every hog IS OF
greater value to the winning OF this
war than a she'll"
Allies Wheat Deficit Large.
AS to wheat, the administrator SAID
the Allies deficiency of production is
196,OOO,OOO bushels, with imports OF
577,7OO, 900 bushels required to main
tain normal consumption. He esti-,
mated the aggregate American, Cana,
dian, Australian, Indian and Argentine
export surplus at 77U,000,000 bushels,
but pointed out that lack of shipping
made it necessary for this country and:
Canada to bear the burden of meeting
the Allies deficit.
"The problem is thus simply one OF
ships,'' he said. If ample shipping
existed there would be no need for
saving or increased production of
wheat on the part of the American
people,"
Meat Situation. ....
Turning to the meat situation, the
administrator said pork products were
more vitality needed by the Allies
than beef.
I'm the matter Of beef" he said,.
"the Allies can support themselves
without any consequential expansion
of imports from the United States"
1--WE need a keepa-pig movement in:
this country" he added
som American farmers he added
"would be wise to realize that for a
considerable period after the war there
will be very poor export market for
American bread grains, whereas there
will be a demand for animal products.

those aboard the Antilles came with
the shock Of the explosion of the tor
pedo, many theories were current as
to how the UJboat crept through tho
destroyer screen, did It's work and es-
capped unchallenged.
A majority Of the officers who would
comment thought the transport and
her conveying patrols had ran directly
over a lurking submarine. which saw
them coming, calculated the distance
and launched her deadly torpedo with.
out ever showing more than her peri
scope. They regard It as probable
that the U-boat commander picked his
place, lay In wait below the surface
until his microphones told him the
patrols had passed and the transport
was upon him, then shot his periscope
above water only long enough to sight
and fire before he ducked back to
safety.
Rescue Work Prevents Pursuit.
Any attempt to locate the submarine
probably was made impossible by tho
necessity of rescuing the survivors.
The vessel must have been virtually
torn in half by the explosion to have
gone down in the time she did.
Probably the attack was made we'll
out at sea. It took two days for the
news to reach Washington and the
dispatch shows the time that must
have elapsed before definite word
could reach Admiral Sims. The sur
vivors are believed to be already safe
ashore somewhere in France or Eng
land.
So far as known, no high officers Of
the army or navy were due to return
on the Antilles. There is no definite
information on that point, however, as
only General Pershing knows who was
sent home on the ship. The reports
so far show that number of army
officers and SO enlisted army men
were aboard. Evidently Admiral
Sims rushed his tidings off before he
communicated with General Pershfng.
Is First Transport Hlt.
The loss Of the Antilles marks the
first reduction of the transport fleet
that has been operating. A very con-
siderable number Of American troops,
worknlen and others involved in the
prosecution Of the war have been car
led safely to France and England and
the unsuccessful attack on the first
contingent is the only recorded previ-
Gus instance where the U-boats have
succeeded even in catching sight OF
the vessels.

MICHAELS REPORTED
TO HAVE QUIT MINISTRY

London, Oct. 24.--On the day that
Austria. with German aid, launched
her drive against Italy, DIR. Michaelis,
whom Austrias foreign minister
openly rebuked the other day, is re-
ported to have rendered hts resigna-
ton. Political observers here see sig
nificance In the coincidence that on the
very evening of the preliminary Teu-
ton bombardmants on the Julian front
Foreign Minister Won Kuehlmann re-
turned from Vienna after successful
conferences" with Count Czernin. the
director of Austria's foreign affairs.
DR.. Won kuehlmann still is the most
talked-of candidate for the chancel-
lorship. His views differ radically
from those of DIR. Michaelis. not only
as regards peace, but particularly con-
corning the relations with Austria
The present chancellor is known to
favor incorporating German domi-
nation rather than harmonious CO.
operation as between two equal part
ners.
The latter is DR.. Kuehimann's as
well as Count Czernins avowed policy
The report Of Chancellor Michaeiis
resignation is still in vogue. 1t comes
from the wireless press and states he
has placed his portfolio in the hands
of Emperor william. This is on a
par with the recent reports OF Vice
Admiral Capelle's resignation as ma
rine minister. which has not. been
positively confirmed UP to this date
True or not, the report created lit
tie surprise here. since ii Is generally
accepted as a certainty that Micha ellis
must go sooner or later.
The kaiser is back In Berlin and
things are expected to move more
swiftly within the next few iays The
Socialists are still unequivocally OPP
posed to Prince Won Bueiow whom
they regard as having decidedly junk
