London. Mar. 9.--Themselves well
fed and certain the German submar-
Inc war cannot restrict further food
supplies. press and public alike to-
day saw In report OF a German Of
ficial's speech from Berlin indication
OF a grave situation OF lack OF food
in Germany.
The speech referred to was by the
Prussian food dictator. DR.. George
Michaelis. delivered In the Prusslan
diet.
I'VE have discovered In the third
year OF the war" he was reported to
have declared. that among all sec
tions Of the people the general feel
ing is not one OF endurance for which
we had hoped. We have not had that
stern supervision in cities which is
necessary. There has been
widespread abuse Of bread tickets,
entailing grave consequences as re-
CARDS our stock. Bread tickets have
been Illegally used on such shock
ing scale that our entire reserves
were exhausted."

UP TO VOTERS TO
REBUKE Mr.. STONE

Washington, Mar. 9.-William j.
Stone will be re-nominated chairman
Of the senate foreign relations COM
mittee, Senator Lewis, administration
whip, told the United Press today,
while the democratic steering COM
mittee was In executive session to
pass upon the committees selection.
"You may say definitely" Lewis
said, that Mr.. Stone will again head
the committee"
Since criticism OF stones course on
armed neutrality has come largely
from administration sources. the un-
eqnlvocal statement OF Lewis, admin
istrati0n spokesman In the senate,
was taken as an indication that an
agreement had been reached to re-.
tain Stone.
1T Ia mp to Senator Stones con-
stituency," Lewis said, "to rebuke
Tim, II he is TO be rebuked. II would
be unethIcal for senator's to upbraid
another senator for expressing his
honest convictions. Members Of the
senate represent state sovereignty.

SURM|SE ACTION
By PRES. WILSON

Washington, March What Pres
ident Wilson purposes as to arming
American merchant ships, was still
mystery early today.
He has three possible courses:
To act on his own initiative under
Secretary Lansing's and Attorney Gen
eral Gregory's rulings that ancient
statutes do not tie his hands or he
can call an extra session. now that
the senate has amended its rules to
thwart filibusters and push through
the armed neutrality bill that failed
last session.
Some OF his advisers suggested that
an extra session quickly would be the
psychological course and the more so
because the army appropriation bill
failed and the government cannot pay
its Mexican border forces until Il
passes.
Passage OF the armed neutrality
dill would not only amount to vote
OF confidence and a notice to the
world that America Is unified and pa
triotic, but II would also provide mon
ey wherewith to operate. But the
fact that the president was still III
today and ordered not to tax himself
with labors. made II possible that he
would delay any action a few more
days.

WIRELESS STATIONS

wireless stations on the Brazilian
coast are believed to be In operation
by Germans. Searching investiga-
tion by the Brazilian authorities to
prevent violation OF neutrality has re-
suited In this bit of deduction on
the part of the officials:
On February 5 there was an en-
gagement between British warships
and German vessels of the island OF
Fernando de Noranha. on the north
ern coast OF Brazil.
Within few hours after nhablt-
ants Of this island reported seeing
the flashes OF big guns and hearing
the cannonading. German interests In
Rio de Janeiro gave circulation of a
story that the British cruiser Ame-

BUILDING THE COAST RAILROAD

BUILDING THE COAST RAILROAD
The regular spring-time crop ~of
railroad building rumors is now
springing up. and from San Francisco
comes the story Of union Of forces
between the Hill and the Strahorn
interests for the projection of a rail-
road to San Francisco. There is no
doubt the time Is not far distance
when the Southern Pacific will seek
to be relieved OF the dead expense Of
hauling its trains over the Siskiyou
mountains when route with prac-
tically a water grade can be obtained
by going down the coast via Grants
Pass and Crescent City. Whatever
the rumored route Of the railroad
stories. a study Of the map by one
who knows conditions OF the terri
tory will indicate what route rail-
road builder would select. And when
. new line is sought, it will be to
eliminate grades and to open up
profitable territory. not to extend the
line into rough and unsettled coun-
try. The following Is the latest rail-
road story as brought to the Courier
over the wire from San francisco
today:
"A coast railway line from San
Francisco to Portland through Eu-
reka, may be the result Of a Hill
strahorn alliance. according to unof-
ncial. but apparently. well-founded,
reports. in San Francisco today.
''The plan contemplates the use Of
the present Northwestern Pacific rail-
way from San Francisco to Eureka
and an extension from Eureka to
Marshfield, to be built by the South
ern Pacific. The traffic then. would
be carried over the present South
ern Pacific line from Marshfield to
Eugene and thence to Portland.
According to the reports, Hills
principal part in the deal would be
extension OF his present road from
Bend to klamath Falls, and from
klamath Falls to the coast at Trini-
dad, a few miles north OF Eureka.
Hill would also assume one-third
OF the cost OF the Northwestern Pa
cific line from San Francisco to Eu-
reka.
1T was pointed out that this line
would eliminate the Siskiyou grade
on the present Southern Pacific line.
Surveyors are known to be work.

hill, between Eureka and San Fran
cisco"

thyst had met three raiders of the
coast and had been sunk.
The story was denied by the Brit
ish consul. No Information was Oh
tainable from the Brazilian ministry
OF marine. Notwithstanding this.
the German interests circulated a
very circumstantial and detailed story
Of the whole battle.
A week later the British cruiser
Glasgow put into port and from one
of its officers was obtained story
of the sea engagement. agreeing In
almost all particulars with the story
the Rio Germans had told OF the bat
tie. except as TO the Amethyst be-
ing sunk.
What has struck the Brazilian Of
ficials with particular significance is
that the Germans were completely
advised regarding this battle on the
day II occurred. The suspicion Is,
therefore. fairly well grounded that
some German wireless station prob
ably reported II to German sources.
The fact that such wireless sta
tions operated by Germans could be
depended upon to give possible sea
raiders exact information as to sail
ings and arrivals OF allied merchant
ships at Brazilian ports. as we'll as
furnish other Information. has led
to a redoubling OF the governments
efforts to find their location and
force their dismantling.

HOOVER MAKING PLANS
FORCONTROL BOARD

CONTINUED from First Pagc)

panles are not. II does not expect
any concerns TO hold out.
The intention OF the Food Admins
tratlon Is TO maintain n fair price.
II will resell for export such wheat
a. America can afford TO part with
and will also sell 10 mlllers for do
nostic consumption. Governmental
charges will be only enough to guard
against loss, and the new machinery
will operate under properly constl-
tuted auditing committees checking
all transactions at every point.
Under the chairmanshlp OF Presl-
dent Harry A. Garfield OF Williams
College. a representative committee
will be selected TO determine a fair
price for the 1917 harvest. This price
once fixed, the Food Administration
will use It's full authority to main
tain II through the whole OF the 1917
harvest year. Tho producer is
warned that by holding back his
grain In hope of advancing prices he
will do so only at hts own cost for
storage and interest. and holders OF
wheat or flour contracts, in or out
side the trade. are instructed that II
is unlawful for them to hold in larger
quantity than necessary for the or
dlnary course OF their business and
that the Administration will prose
cute such cases vigorously. I'VE
would advise such holders" says the
announcement. ito liquidato their
contracts at once"
Through this machinery the Food
Administration expects not only tc
stabilize the price OF wheat and
flour, but also ehe price OF bread.
Patriotic millers are cooperating
heartily through a committee which
is now discussing differentials oi
profit and expense
The Food Administration will stip.
ulate that a large proportion OF for
eign shipments be in the shape OF
-four instead OF wheat, thereby main
tanning mill employment and the feed
supply for dairy cattle. while at tn,
same time home consumption is les.
sened by n countrywide patriotic en-
! deavor. In awarding these expor
orders preference will be given mills
cooperating with the Government.

matches Fritz so they get along very
