Bread More Valuable
Than Money in Greece
rcorr.soond.nee o, The Associated Pre.sl

ATHENS, Sept 6.-The working peo-
nlo in some sections are asking that
their wages be paid in bread, not in
money. The blockade Of Greek ports
has made bread more valuable than
MONEY and has started the unusual
system of bread wages. While the
well-to-do classes have been very pros
porous in recent months, the poor nave
suffered greatly by the blockade OF all
foodstufFs, principally bread. Famlshed
children and women crowd around tne

Attacks Peace Activities OF the

Lyric Wednesday and Thursday
Aug. 30 and 30.

Thomas Dixon, author Of THE Fall
of a Nation" has come to the front
in answer to the criticism Of his Carl
cature OF ex-Secretary William ].
Bryan under the name of Hon. Plato
Baker in the film.
1T appears to me that the film is
always singled out for condemnation
in respect Of matters that do not start
even ripple when presented on the
Legitimate stage or in the funny col
&mns of the papers. Are the cavil-
ers aware that Mr.. Bryan is being
caricatured in almost every summer
show or revue in the country? saw
him cartooned in the Ziegfeld Follies
the other night and in Columbia
theatre revue in Chicago recently.
Every newspaper cartoonist is privil-
eyed to make fun Of public charac-
tiers. Yet when film author does
the same thing hands are held up In
holy horror!
my answer to the charge is SIM
ply that all the statements Of fact
implied in my caricature are true

AMMUNITION ON
MERCHANT SHIPS
TO BE DOUBLED

Washington, Aug. 23.-As result
OF the official report on the subma-
rine destruction of the American
tank steamer Campana. which said
the gun crews supply of shells ran
out in the midst Of the fight, the
amount Of ammunition supplied to-
armed merchant ships will be dou-.
bled.. The Campana had $50 shells.
Naval officers have not accepted
as conclusive the unofficial report
that the failure of the gunners on
the Campana to strike the submarine
was due to the superior range OF the
submarines guns, but believe 1t more
probable that 1t was case OF low
visibility, making the small attack
ing craft an exceedingly bad target.
1t is also pointd out that the speed
of the tanker was not great, giving
to the submarine an advantage.

tary of state, Mr.. Bryan, SO to speak,
'hogged' the Chautauqua platform
and become the star lecturer at an
emolument OF $500 per lecture. He
raised the price, generally collected
the money in advance and put the
other Chautauqua speakers in the
shade so that summer many of them
could not obtain engagements. The
theme of his oratory was Peace,
and he was surrounded by groups of
, admiring women and children just
as he is shown to be in the picture.
The part of the caricature referring
to the future is likely forecast of
what would happen should such an
orator present to an invading army
his Utopian peace proposals. He
would be laughed at, handled with
indignity, and the result OF his ef-
forts would be absolutely nil.

pacifist and foe OF adequate prepar'

against Mr.. Bryan personally, but
claim the right to make legitimate
sport of his mistakes which might

alton proves anew from day to day
that the protested friend Of unprepar
edness is the most dangerous enem!

steps in to consider demands for
higher wages or better working con-
dltions. The labor leaders agreed
not to call out their men pending
efforts Of the board to settle the dis
pute.
The boards decision shall be final
and binding on all parties, but either
side to the dispute may reopen the
question six months later IL it de-
sires.
Gompers will actually appoint two
members to the board-one from the
metal trades and one from among
wooden ship carpenters. But only
one will sit on the board on any
question in dispute.
The agreement also provides for
two assistant board members with
voting powers, to sit in when disputes
concerning private plants are being
adjusted-one assistant for the own
er and one Of the employees. SINH
lar provision for representation on
the board is made in case Of dis
pute in private yards doing work for
the navy department.
Under the plan the country is d.
vided into districts, each with an ex-
aminer for the shipyards owners and
for the labor organizations. The ex-
aminers conduct the preliminary ne
gotiations toward settlements toward
disputes.
The boards decision may be re,
troactive and it may take into con
sideration increased living costs in
deciding wage demands.

Laying Plans To Plant
Greater Wheat Acreage

Upon the invitation of Secretary of
Agriculture Houston. Director John
T. Caine III, Of the extension divis-
ion of the Utah Agricultural college,
leaves. August "a. for Spokane,
Wash, to attend conference, to be
held there, to lay plans to increase
greatly the acreage to be planted to
winter wheat and rye. The program
Of the United States department of
agriculture calls for yield next year
of over 1,000,0OO,O00 bushels of
wheat and for more than 100000
bushels of rye. To do this, II is
proposed to plant 47,337,OO0 acres
to winter wheat. This acreage, an
increase of IS per cent over that
planted to wheat in the fall Of 1916,
will yield 672, 100000 bushels. If the
average yield for the past ten years
is equalled, and $4,000. 900 bushels.
III the favorable conditions of 1914
are repeated. In either case, a fair
ly successful crop of spring wheat
will bring the years yield well over
200, 100000 bushels. Over five
million acres are to be planted to rye.
according to the plan, and yield Of
SO, 100000 bushels is expected.
This vast increase needed in any
case, will be absolutely essential tn
prevent a serious shortage in bread
stuffs, next summer. should the grow
ing corn, now behind season. be much
damaged by early frosts, say experts
Of the department Of agriculture who
have made O. thorough study OF con
ditions.
Utah's increase in wheat acreage
is to be twelve per cent. While
246, 900 acres, are planted in the fall
of 1916, the department asks thai
$4,000 acres be planted this fall. Al
increase in the acreage planted t.
rye Is also asked.
A complete program. whereby tn
United States department OF agricul
ture, the various state governments
and the agricultural colleges of tn
country can cooperate to aid tn
farmers in carrying out this plan TO
an increased acreage, will be formu
Hated at the Spokane convention. Tn
department OF agriculture has a.
ready made the following suggestion
to the farmers; I'D
I. Piow early. Give the plowe
land two months to settle before SOW
ing, where possible.
2. Compact the late-plowed Ian
with roller and harrow.
3. Don't pillow after a cultivate
crop. Prepare such land with dis
and harrow. o. d G.
4. Make the seed bed fit pla

STEEL MARKET INACTIVE
ALTHOUGH ORDERS GROW
Manufacturers Continue to Hold Of
Until Government Acts on
Price-Fixing

NEW YORK, July 2t.-Although 1t can
not be said that there has been any re-
sumption of activity in the steel trade
some slight Increase is reported In ORDERS
by several of the companies, with deliveries
being given virtually at the convenience
of the manufacturer. This is being done
in view of the orders which are expected
TO be received from the Government and
on which preferred deliveries will be made.
There Is a muChmproved feeling among
steel trade interests, this being the result
of the general belief that the steel com
panies will not be compelled to supply out
side consumers and others at the same
price that will be fixen by the Government
for its requirements. In fact. as stated
heretofore, steel men make the point that
to compel them to make such concessions
to regular consumers would be unconstitu-
tional.
Another factor which is receiving consd-
erabla attention, and which has been an
infiuence on sentiment to great exent. Is
the opinion of many that the Federal Trade
Commission will fix prices for steel on a
basis of fair profit over costs to all pro-
duters and will allow a profit over costs.
Ir some quarters it is stated that there
Is likely to be a good demand from equip
ment manufacturers in the near future as a
result of the large orders which have al
ready been placed and those which are to
come. The steel for the French locomo-
tive order has already been partly placed
and all the requirements for the car order
from the Hudson Bay Company have been
covered While carbuders are not giving
much attention to the large Russian in
quiries thus far, it is likely that this busi-
ness will gradually develop.
