THREATEN BARONS
Hoover Puts One Firm Out of
Business for Violation.
Let Car of Potatoes Rot; Other
Firms May Suffer.
BY GEORGE MARTIN.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Many big food
dealers throughout the United States
are in eminent danger of being put
out of business by Food Administra-
tor Hoover because they are violating
the federal food regulations under
which they are licensed to operate, it
was learned today.
1t was a gentle hint to these dealers,
who do not think Hoover means bust
ness, that the food administrator re-
Voked the license of the Morris Sin
ger Commission company here for al
lowing two carloads of potatoes to
rot on the track.
The revocation order puts that firm
completely out of business until such
time as Hoover sees fit to grant a
new license.
Heavy Penalties Attached.
The same fate and much harsher
treatment, including indictments car
rying heavy fines and two year prison
terms, hover near number of marked
food dealers in various parts of the
country if they don't change their
tactics, it was authoritatively stated.
To give the dealers plenty of warn

INSULT TO THE POPE
Vatican So Regards Accusation of
Precipitating Italian Retreat.

London. Dec. cardinal Bourne,
the archbishop of Westminster, has
communicated to the Morning Post a
statement from Cardinal Gasparri, the
papal secretary of state, answering
the Posts accusation that the vatican
was implicated in descriptive prop
uganda in Italy and is unneutraE
Cardinal Gasparri declares that the
accusation is an atrocious calumny,
and says that the hierarchy and clergy
in Italy have given the most open and
most generous help to the country S
cause, and have received unreserved
praise from the Italian parliament
and government. The cardinal adds
that long before the issuance of the
papal peace note which is said to have
been among the chief causes of the
armys lowered morale, the clergy
generally and the army chaplains
particularly, were laboring against the
destructive propaganda which had
been begun and was reported to be
giving unrest to the civil authorities.
The vatican, the cardinal declares, is
panied and indignant at the Post
charges and regards them as insult
ing.
Referring to the accusation that the
vatican espoused the Austrian cause.
Cardinal Gasperri reaffirms the full
and correct neutrality of the Holy See.
The Post, in an editorial examining
Cardinal Gasparri's statement, virtu-
ally renerates its original accusation,
and cites incidents which it regards as
proofs.

A POCKET OF HE'LL
Bourbon Heights Teens With
the Stencil of COrpses.
Trees and Ground Shell Shat
tered; Pools Shiny Red.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP sIMMs


With the British Armies in France,
Dec. 6.-Bourlon is a pocket of hell
today.
The trees of Bourbon heights are
splintered away. The ground is evilly
peck marked by the dread disease of
war. Pools of Shiny, SUCCESSFULLY red
water stretch everywhere. Corpses
are scattered about thickly. The de-
tenders are too busy to bury them.
A horrible stencil from these torn and
mangled remains rises to mingIe with
the fumes of exploding shells and
with Prussian gas.
Over head boche shrapnel bursts in
an everlasting barrage. Gas shells
monotonOuSly heaved over, spread
their vapors about. Defenders must
wear their masks practically every
minute of the day and night. Sour
rying around in the horrors of the
wood, they fit into the picture exactly.
They look like some Dante-esque
fiends of the Inferno in their goggling
masks.
Enemy Holds Hill.
All roads in this hell spot are badly
cut up. The German artillery is do
ing its best to concentrate on the
British engineers, who are working
day and night to keep the line of COM
munications open.
Bourlon's hill top is difficult of ac-
cess. The enemy retains the high
ground on both sides. He dominates
AnneuX and Graincourt valleys. The
situation in this particular section is
certainly not easy.
Bourlon's pocket comes from a
sharp curve around the wood, from
a point on the Bapaume- Cam brai road
between the Nord canal and@fthe
southwest corner of the woods and
thence west to Fontaine Notre Dame
Enemy machine guns in Folie wood
have forced back the British line north
of Cantaing, further accentuating the
