FOOD BUYING FOR
WAR AND NEUTRALS
TO BE CENTRALIZED

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. q. -
Capitalization in the food administra
ton of all purchases of staple food
stuffs by the army and navy and by
allied and neutral buyers for the pur'
pose of stabilizing prices and control
ing supplies was announced tonight
by Food Administrator Hoover. Such
purchases, will be handled by a newly
created division of coordination OF
purchases, he said, and added:
The necessity FOR such an organiza,
ton grows out of the governmental
consolidation all over the world of the
buying of certain commodities into
such large orders as to extend be-
yond the ability of any one manutac-
turer to supply and the failure to CO.
ordinate which may affect price levels
and supplies to the civil population.
Army and navy supplies will be
handled by a committee, representing
the army, naval, federal trade COM
and the food administration,
allied supplies by their various pur-
chasing agencies through the food ad-
and neutral purchasers
by their agents, the war trade board
and the food administration.

Officer of Cycling Patrol Says
Britain'S Shores Guarded
With Utmost Caution

HEADQUARTERS, OF BRITISH
HOME DEFENSE ARMIES. England,
Since the beginning OF the war the
coasts OF the United Kingdom have
been guarded by the British bicycle
militia or "Cyclist Patrol" and today
the cyclists still are on guard against
German invasion. But the go den OPP
portunity for a German assault IN
force upon Britain's shores has now
passed. No longer do few cyclists
stand guard alone over important
landing places, as they did for man.
days after war was declared.
The danger of invasion appeared
very great to us in those days, said
the commander OF one OF the cyclists
battaliops the other day We had 10
put forth the most colossal efforts to
get our defense organization up to
adequate pitch.
IF the German regarded an IN
vasion of England as fearsome task
then, he must regard il as a hopeless
impossibility now. Where We former
" had only a small detachment OF
cyclist troops to guard possible
landing place, there are now thou
sands of trained soldiers living in
huts or billets close to hand, With
guns, trenches, and dugouts all along
the sand dunes, and plenty of support
also from aeroplanes, observation bal
looms, submarines and coast defense
vessels In 1914 the German invader
would have been opposed largely by
half-trained troops straight from work
shops and offices, while today he
would have to meet men the equal IN
physique and fighting ability Of any
thing the world has ever seen
The actual work Of protecting land
ing places has long since been taken
out of the hands Of the cyclist battal'
IONS, who hav9 become more purely
a coast patrol. Their duties nowadays
occasionally are varied by the capture
of various objects of interest washed
up by the tide, such as mines. bodies,
wreckage, and life buoys. The mines
ere destroyed by guncotton, affording
a few moments of pleasant excitement
for the patrol.

BOOMERS NO LONGER
STYLISH IN FRANCE

LYONS, France. - American sol
dierettes who are rushing into print
clad in boomers or overalls may be
surprised to learn that the bloomer
thing is going out in France. French
girls say they don't like it because it
isn't modest.
Several thousand women and girls
are employed here in one of the big
gest munition factories in France.
Barely one per cent Of them wear
boomers. These include women en-
ployed around dangerous machinery.
where skirts would multiply the
chances Of death, and young girls of
Is or II employed as runners" be.
tween different departments. A few
wear overalls. The vast majority
wear skirts and no shorter than those
seen on Fifth avenue.
There was a craze for boomers
when women first began to invade
the munitior1 plants and industrial
works." said department manager
ut was something new and the girls
played the fad as they would some
new thing in skirts or hats.
But the French girl Of every class
Is extremely modest. She couldn't
stand the gibes Of the men in the
factory with her. or the stares Of the
visitors passing through the shops.
The bloomer fashion is dying out ex.
cept where II is necessary.

What the I. w. w. Actually Is.

The I. W. w. is a union of unskilled ! workers in large part employed in agriculture and in the production of raw materials. While the l. w. w. appeared in the East at Lawrence, Paterson, and certain other places, nt the height of strike activity, its nor mai habitat is in the upper middle i West and the far West. from British Colum bia down into Cid Mexico But , within the past year, apart from the ; Dakota wheatfields and the iron ranges of Minnesota and Michigan, , the zone of important activity has;
 been Arizona. California, Washington,
 Idaho. Montana, and Colorado. The present war time I. w. w. problem is
 that of it's activity in the far West
 It is fortunate for our analysis that
 the I. W. w. mem mbership in the West
 is consistently of one type, and one
 which has had uniform economic
 experience It Is made up of migra-
 tory workers currently called hobo
 labor. The terms hobo miner, "ho-
 bo lumberjack," and blanket stiff''
 are familiar and necessary in accur- ate descriptions of Western labor con-
 ditions. Very few of these migratory
 workers have lived long enough in any one place to establish a legal resi- dence and to vote, ard they are also womanless. Only about 10 per cent. have been married, and these, for the most part, have either lost theiS wives or deserted them. Many claim to be working out" and expect event. ually to return to their families But examination usually discloses the fact that they have not sent money home recently. or received letters. They are "fiOatNrS'' in every social sense Ont of thirty suicides in the cheap lodg- inghouses in San Francisco in tho month of December 1913 but two left behind any word as to their homes or their relatives Half of these mgra- tory workers are of American birth, the other half being largely rrade up of the newer immigrants from south eastern Europe.-Carleton H. Parker in the Atlantic.

has been reduced. Instead of paying eleven dollars or ten dollars and a half for a ton of broken, egg, stove or nut coal, the consumer may now get this commodity for the much lesser sum of $9.65 a ton. At that, we have a growing idea the price should have been fixed at the even figures.-say $9.6O a ton or even nine dollars; but those who made the prices are SUD- posed to be supreme. They may have set the figures too high, they may have set them too low. In the first case the public will suffer. In the second in- stance the dealers will be at loss. Yet, we venture to say that if the dealers are asked to sell their coal at too low a cost there is not one of them who will be forced to close his place of business during the coming winter. ~ We shall watch and see. And, if there Is any one who is forced to close down tho old coal yard and turn to another business to make 8 living we shall extend to him our most hum ble apologies. He has been sadly abused. And it is not right. Tho poor fellow.

DER TAG!

''There goes the scrappiest bunch of soldiers in France. They are mad III through and just biding their time til they get a chance to repay the Qermans fort,what happened to their comrades. They will get their re- venEe before this war is over. You can depend on that"
 So said the commanding officer of the American battalion that returned from the first line of trenches after having met with battle at the hands of the Germans. This Is the same de- t3rhment of American troops swooped down upon by a German raiding par Nv not long ago and from among which the Huns captured several, killed three, and wounded twelve.
 That these boys are "the scrappiest bunch of soldiers in France" there can be no doubt. American soldiers. as rule, are "scrappy". They were 'acrappy" in the Revolutionary War: they, were "scrappy" in the War of 1912; they were "scrappy' on both kl6es in the War between the States; and they were ''scrappy" in the Spanish War They will be "scrappy" Tn the greatest of all wars.
 This is the same "scrappy" set of men who will some day see to 1t that ehe man who instigated this war gets HI that Is coming to him. This Is the .anef outfit that will some day walk known the world over as ''Unter den Linden" and there tell tho Hohen- sollerns and all their ilk. in the lan- ruage of a famous Kentucky editor o Ego to Hell.''
