Another transparent piece of propa-

in regard to the Rumanian grain ex-
ports. These are described on some
days as surprising the requirements
of 100,000,000 persons, an assurance
which contrasts strongly with the of
fetal announcement recently made in
regard to the necessity of reducing
the amount of bread supplied in lieu
of potatoes.
Another misleading pen-trick is to

In ratio to power, they are most economical in
their consumption of gasoline
In ratio to weight and carrying capacity, the
perfect balance of the Studebaker Cars, enables
owners frequently to get from 5000 to 10000
miles on single set of tires.
Studebaker Cars are very economical to main
tain. Their perfect quality insures durability
and keeps the cost of adjustments and repairs at
a minimum.
Then, too, Studebaker Cars are distinctly the
Owners Cars. Their great accessibility, their
simplicity of design and construction, and the
very complete instruction books that go with
Studebaker Cars, make them very easy, indeed,
to take care of-every part is easy TO get at
whether it be valves, gears, clutch. electric
system rear axle.
If you wish practical, real economy, in buying
your new car, read these paragraphs again; then

The StudebQker Car
Economy and Investment

ECONOMY is judiciouS expenditure. The
=, purchase of good automobile is a judi
cious expenditure.
To the business man, the professional man and
the farmer, the automobile has become neces-
Sity-it saves time, covers more territory, gets
more business-in this way an automobile makes
money.
To the family it brings health, enjoyment, open
country, better associations-perhaps at less cost
than vacations and other forms of "amusements."
The purchase of STUDEBAKER Car is not
only an economy and "judcious expenditure,
but it is an investment. The Studebaker Car is
standard of value and quality. 1t is generally
recognized as one of the best motor car values in
the world
NE high used car value of Studebaker Cars in
ratio to first cost, makes it easy to change
Studebaker Car back into cash, if necessary.
On the basis of permanent investment, Stude-
baker Cars are as economical to own and operate
IS they are to buy.

No way has so far been devised to

CHICAGO, March S0.-The food
supply Of the nation is in danger was
the cry in Chicago meat and grain
markets today. Alarming reports
poured into the market from the
great winter wheat fields Of Kansas
and Nebraska. They told of drought
and the blowing up Of thousands Of
acres OF winter wheat.
May wheat opened at s1.9S on the
board of trade today, a slight recess
sion from yesterday, but with that
exception the highest in history. Cash
wheat of high grade was quoted at
S2.15 to S2.25 with not enough offered
to establish a quotation.

Reports received by the United

ments in the Chicago pit.
Another grave menace to the ma

labor shortage, already acute, has
been made critical by the calling out
Of the national guard in the agricul-

today was that the present national
guard call would take 10000 men
from the strictly agricultural States,

CENSORSHIP WILL
BE STRICT ON TIE
TROOP MOVEMENTS

Chicago, March 27,-General larry.
in command of the central division of
the army, issued sealed orders today
as to the disposition of the 80 military
guard units now under arms in the
central division. A strict censorship
has been imposed and no announce
ment will be made concerning the as
signment of the troops.
1t was learned today that the as
signments will be fixed very largely
upon the recommendation OF the de-
partment of justice. An elaborate sys-
tenn has been at work for months col
lecting information regarding danger
points as hostilities grow nearer and
department of justice officials have
been in close touch with military Off
Gals for several days. These confer
ences were continued at the federal
building today.
Several special agents from Wash
ington. whose identities have been
carefully concealed, have taken part
in the conferences. They are believed
to have conveyed information too con-
fidential to be sent in the malls.
Today the central west is engaged In
the biggest recruiting campaign since
the Civil war None of the regiments
is up to the war strength as provid-
ed in recent legislation-2002 men and
55 officers. While the response has
been steady, recruiting officers have
been greatly disappointed at the ply
steal condition of tho applicants. Some
stations in the division report that so
per cent OF the men examined are
physically unfit for the army. The
same proportion is holding for the re-
cruiting agents of the regular army,
navy and marine corps.

Old and Trusted Guards
Will Be Placed at Capitol
Doors When War Message
Is Delivered.

. Washington, March 27.--Precaution-
airy measures ~ the most elaborate
kind will be taken to protect Presi-
dent Wilson from any harm when he
delivers his war message to congress
one week from today.
The capitol win De closed during the
morning to every one except senator's,
representatives, their clerks and those
who possess special cards of admit
lance. These cards will not be given
out until shortly before the president
arrives for fear they might be dupl-
Gated or transferred and some one gain
entrance who does not belong inside.
UNUSUAL PRECAUTIONS.
The oldest and most trusted guards
will sbe placed at all the many en-
frances of the building, and special
representatives of the newspaper corps
will be at the press gallery door to
see that no one who Is not a bona fide
newspaper man is admitted to that
gallery.
The usual secret service and police
protection thrown about the president
will be greatly augmented. The presi-
dent will go as usual to Speaker
Clarks room on the second, or house
floor, and will be escorted into the
house chamber by a committee of SEN
ators and representatives.

RUSSIA PLANS GERMANS CAUGHT
BREAK GERNANY'S AFTER LONG CHASE
GRIP IN BALKANSJACROSS COUNTRY
Turkey and Bulgaria to Be
Approached With Idea of
Getting Them Out of the
War.

Petrograd, March 27.-The new Rus
STA may break the grip of the central
empires in the Balkans--may even
bring about withdrawal OF Bulgaria and
Turkey from the war, according TIC de-
velopments today.
Two moves by the new government
leaders were cited as likely to have
farreaching effects to this end.
First is the plan of Minister of Jus
tice Kerensky for enter nationalist
ton of Constantinople." Kerensky
agrees emphatically with President
Wilson's dictum as to free outlets to
the sea and with his plan for neutral
ization of such outlets. His friends,
however, said Kerensky's plans went
farther than this and contemplated re-
tention of the Dardanelles and Con-
stantinoplc by the Turks.
POSSIBLE NEGOTIATIONS.
Second of the moves was series of
possible negotiations with the Bull
gars reported in prospect today. Bull
garia's people are closer than any 9TH
ers to Russia; more sympathetic with
their aims and, it is believed they will
be more sympathetic now that the
reign of the Romanoffs is ended.
The war council, which includes as
it's members the ministers of foreign
affairs, war and navy, met today to
consider the best means of reorganiz-
ing the high command of the army and
navy on the principle of it's subordina-
tion to the ministry.
