 Reports

Washington. June 2s.-Current re- tail prices on canned vegetables are nearly twice the prices paid canners by wholesalers for this seasons out put, the federal trade commission re- ported yesterday in connection with its investigation into food prices. The inquiry intor canned goods, the com mission explained, is ."to forestall speculative prices'' /

 A "A large part of the canned goods now sold at these prices of this sea- sons pack says the report, was sold by the canners at considerably lower prices than now prevail"
 The statement does not attempt to analyze the difference in prices but says: Next autumn and winter, if complaints are made in any locality that unreasonable prices are charged for the canned peas, corn, tomatoes, salmon or similar products which are now being packed, the commission will be in a position to promptly ex- pose any extortion."
 Reports have been received from about 1000 canning factories in re- sponse to the commissions inquiries The commission will investigate quantities purchased by various deal CTS In an effort to prevent specula- tive holding" ss

DAMAGES FROM UTAH ,
 FLOOD IN MILLIONS

Salt Lake City, Utah. June 2s-The damage to railroad trackage and buildings and to crops caused by the bursting of the Price River Irrigation Co, dam in Gooseberry creek on Sum day was estimated today at more than $1,500, 1000.
 Thousand of miners will be idle un- til the railroad rebuilds from IS to 30 miles of track.
 Three large steel bridges, scores of highway bridges, have gone and all concrete culverts in the Price river valley for distance of AZ miles have been destroyed. No loss of life has been reported.
 The operator at Helper was asked for report. He replied:
 Five houses and the depot passed here little while ago. No loss of life has been reported, as people had plenty of Warning"

Fleet-street. But 1t must be sane censorship-in the hand of a capable and experienced man, and inspired by genuine respect and frank recognition of the rightful place of the press in the economy of war. This essential condition has been conspicuously ab sent when the government has been eager to secure newspaper publicity and support.
 It would almost serve the politi-. clans right if the newspapers refused to come out for the duration of the war; Try and realize what would happen then!
 The truth is that the press is the safety valve of the war. At present our government are sitting on it.

AIRPLANES FOR TRANSATLANTIC
 SERVICE SOON
G. Holt Thomas Predicts Pre- diets Rate of S1 Per
 Mile.

London, June 2s-(Correspond- planes carrying passengers between New York and London in two days, at a total cost of about $1 a mile was predicted by C.. Holt Thomas in an address which he delivered before the Aeronautica1 Society of Great Britain.
 To complete the rosy forecast, prothetic films were displayed show ing the departure and voyage of a transatlantic airplane and also the dropping of mail pounches at postal air stations between London and the north of England.
 MT. Thomas. who has had large ex- perience in flying and building air craft, said that airplane mail service
 could be established commercially. "A special aeroplane will enable the business man to leave London in the morning, transact his business in Paris, and be home to dinner again" he said. 'tIt will take him to Bagdad in day and a half or New York in two days.'
 The cost from London to Paris, he added, would be just over a dollar per mile running one machine each way with four machines it would work out at 75 cents. A profitable charge for passengers would be $25. A mail letter of one ounce could be probably carried for one cent and three pound
 parcel for ~75 cents. A passenger could go from London to Marseilles in eight hours instead of 23, at a cost of $50 or mails could be carried for for two cents an ounce.
 Constantinop1e could be reached in 20 hours for $125 a passenger and
 mails at five cents an ounce. Dealing with farther distances he pictured Ce1on as being only two. and three quarter days from London, Tokio four and a half days, Sydney five days, Cape Town three and a half days, and Vancouver three days.
 Lord Cowdray, the chairman of the meeting said he believed MT. Thomas estimate of costs to be near the mark and that it would not exceed a dollar per mile. In his opinion commercial flying was bound to come and come quickly and it would not require sgov- ernment assistance after the first five or six years t>eaF sE1

HOLL VEG SCORED BY EDITORS OF
 GERMAN PRESS
Government In General Is Criticized Throughout
 Country

Copenhagen, June 2s-Germany's leading editors in their customary Monday articles deal harshly with the igovernment in general~and Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg in particular. Theodor Wolff, in the Tageblatt, reads the chancellor a lecture for de- claring through the North German Gazette that President Wilson is more of an autocrat than Emperor Nicho- las was. the writer pointing out that President Wilson in the most import ant question to be decided, whether war should be declared, had to ob- tain favorable vote from the, con- gress and was unable to do anything without the approval of that body. ;
 Esugen zffnmerman in the Lokaf Anzeiger. which newspaper is now controlled by the Pan Germans, takes exactly the opposite tack and holds hp. Russia as a horrible example to those Germans who are desirous of Introducing the democratic spirit, into rGerman dnstitutionst The existing system. he declares, is responsible for Germany's brilliant victories.

AMERICAN CITIES,

Washington, June 28-American municipalities have been living be- yond their Incomes, according to a preliminary census bureau report for the fiscal year 1916. made public yes terday. The average per capita in- debtedness for 21s cities is $74.64, a
 figure nearly eight times as great as the corresponding figure for the na- tional government. The excess of expenditures over revenues in these cities amounted to $73,591,070, or

CONTROL OF THE AIR.

If the United States wants to do Isomething right off quick to help end the war, it should not rest content with the tardy training of troops to show up in a year from now. It should get busy on the big air feet tbat the war Department is calling for.
 Aeroplanes are the one part of war machinery that can be put together on short notice. The great number of automobile factories provide us com plete equipment for a&plane manufac- ture. The American people can use their own old pleasure cars year longer if necessary, so that big air fleet can, be created.
 1t would revolutionize conditions on the French front With the German ntrrnem overpowered, their artillery would shoot blindfolded They would h4ve to depend on long distance ob- Bervatfon from the rear, which is out of date. Fire thus directed can often be lodged.
 A big American fleet could secure control of the air and there is no limit to the damage 1t could do. Conditions behind the lines could be made as per- ilous as the trenches, and Fritzy would feel Nike turning tall for the Rhine. Give 'em the money Congress.
