PLANS TO SHUT OUT
FOOD SPECTATORS
H. c. Hoover Outlines His Pol
icy in Address to Agri-
cultural Editors.
PACKERS ASK CONTROLLER
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. August 25.-Herbert [.
Hoover, federal food administrator, eN-
planned to editors of agricultural pa
pers and representatives of newspapers
from agricultural districts today the
necessity for administering the supply
of foodstuffs: told of the problems that
confronted those who were dealing with
the subject and asked their co-opera-
ton in the work to be done. He object
ed to the word control in connection
with food conservation, he said. because
the administration in the main wished
to rely on voluntary effort and patriotic
cooperation.
All sections of the country were repre-
sentcd at the conference. from which the
newspaper representatives of the metro
politan press Were excluded MIR. Hoover.
after the conference adjourned. announced
that he would return east within several
hours.
Mr.. Hoover made it clear. in statement
which he authorized. that the purpose OF
the administration was to deal as fairly
with all interests as was possible and that,
in order that this intention might become
a fact. it was essential that all should act
in similar spirit.

Reason for the En- barge.

I'VE have placed an embargo upon
the shipment of food and other com
modities from the country. because. If
we allowed an unlimited drain ON our
supplies, we will face an absolute
shortage next spring.
In reviewing the conditions that led 10
the establishing Of a commission to fix the
price Of wheat for the year Nr. Hoover
urged we should organize the dstribu-
ton Of our wheat and -four so that the
speculator has no door. nor even crack.
through which he may enter
Mr. Hoover concluded by asking for CO.
operation on the part of the editors.
THE food administration must be the
combined work of thousands, he declared.
1T is beyond any one man.
The afternoon conference at the stool k
yards is said to have arranged for the
appointment of joint committees of all
interests involved. which shall arrange
for the even distribution of shipments
of live stock into the Chicago market.
so that there will be no light" and
heavy" days. 1t is believed this ar
rangement will decrease price nuctua-
tions and will lead to the establishing
of a permanent "five-day market"
The legal phase of the live stock and
meat industry has been gone into in
Chicago during the past few days by
Francis j. Heney. counsel for the Fed
eral Trade Commission. and Thomas r.

Capture of Monte Santo
Opens Way for Italian
Advance East of Gorilla
BY ARTHUR $. DRAPER.
Especial CabIeGrnm to The Star and
York Tribune.

LONDON. August 25.-Gen. Cadorna's
second Italian army has stormed Monte
Santo mountain peak seven miles
northeast OF Gorilla and a position of
strategic Importance comparable only
to the almost impregnabie Mount Her
mada which bars the way to Triest
on the southern CarSo. The Austrian
line has been pierced at several points
and the forces of the Emperor Charles
all along IsonZo front are retreatine
defending themselves against a vigor-
Gus pursuit.
When Gen Cadorna, in 1916. after
throwing back the Austrian invasion
through the Trentino, suddenly turned
and overwhelmed the city of Gorilla
he found his victory almost barren of
military results except of a defensive
nature. because the enemy still clung
to Monte Santo and could not be

ed. towers 2,245 feet almost precipi-
tously in the face of the Italian ad-
vance. In the Italian offensive early
this summer Cadorna'S troops worked
their way up the heights and estab-
lished themselves upon the Vodice, the
plateau to the west of the mountain
but Monte Santo still defied all their
best efforts.
Now the control of the valley to the
east of GoriZia has been transferred to
the Italians. and they will probably be
able to thrust forward Il great wedge
between Monte Santo and the Carso
plateau. hairpin-sh shaped table land
which juts up between the Wippach
river and the coast. The strategic re-
suits may be far-reaching Military

Where Ruling Doesn't Apply.

'It was not intended that paragraph y
Of the compiled rulings should apply to
the case Of the head of a family whose
family. at the time OF his summons and
prior thereto, were and had been mainly
dependent upon his labor for support
-. Instances in which local boards
have been in error in respect of these
two classes of cases are rare. 1t was
to be expected that with some $500 local
boards there would be some ununiform-
ity Of decision in this regard. To pro-
vide against this unuHiformity. section q
of the regulations provides for the au-
tomato appeal OF all dependency cases
TO the District boards. District boards
should scan the decisions of local boards
on questions of dependence. and wher-
ever 1t appears that such decisions are
illegal (as m the two cases just men
toned or otherwise). or where these de-
cisions seem to be so far ununiform as
to result in unequal operation of the
law, the District board should reverse
or modify the decision OF the local
board"

Misled by Military Phrases.

Civilians seem to be misled by mill
itary phrases about limited allied Of
fensives and the impregnable German
line. l have heard people say: But if
we can advance only three miles and
are then compelled to wait for the ar
tillery to move up and smash the three
miles, what is to prevent the Germans
falling back in short stages for years.
OF course from a military point of
view such a theory is impossible; no
army could retreat for long without
its morale being affected enough to
break the equilibrium-least of all the
Germans at the end of three hard years
of war. You've only to look at the way
they sacrifice men in counter attacks
to see that they know the danger of
retreat.
"As things are going now the allies
are breaking their hearts as Grant
broke those of the Confederates in the
battle of the Wilderness: and when the
defenders hearts are broken the most
impreSnable position may fall like a
house of cards. Remember we have
still two more months in which to
maintain the pressure. Personally l con-
slider the recent German bombarding of
hospitals significant. Cortez burned his
boats behind his men to prevent their re-
treating. The Germans burn hospitals be-
fore theirs to prevent their surrender from
fear of French vengeance

Best of all. now for the first time
Austria and Germany are hard pressed

outset that the food problems OF the
present would have occurred whether the
United States went into the war or not:
that they are based on the underlying
economic currents and disturbance Of
economic forces"
of foodstuGs caused by the diversion
of millions of men from productive la
Dor to war and the depletion of the soil
has thrown upon this nation the re-
sponsibility of increasing its exports of
both wheat and meat.
This condition must be met by turn
ing the face -of our agriculture to-
ward increased production of animal
food and ultimately decrease our ex-
port of bread and fodder grain a
situation that will arise when 1T be-
comes more logical for our allies to
kill and eat their animals and depend
upon us to replace their animal foods
than il is to import fodder in hope of
maintaining their animals.
Speaking of speculation and IAN un-
necessary higher cost of living in our
industrial centers." Mr.. Hoover asserted
that mo one had yet refuted the fact

but our consuming population bought
their flour at price based on over
$3.50 wheat for large part of the
year" a remedy for these evils
must be sought he said. IF we are TO

efficiency in the war.
Shortages in overseas transportation
of foodstuffs have brought import
problems to the United States which
cause a diminution in the consumption
