BY COUNCIL

monumental campaign to feed the
allies. Finance and shipping prob
lens are coming to be considered
| comparatively collateral though OF
course vital.
! 1t was taken for granted today
that it will be the policy of the
allies, after America has made her
preliminary contributions to her
| fghting sister nations in men,
money, food, shipping and other
| things, to entrust the United States
with absolute control of certain
phases of the war.
That food will be one of the prob
lens left entirely in American hands
is believed certain.
This will mean that one man or
small group of men will be named
by President Wilson absolutely to
dominate the production and distri-
button of all food in the United
States, England, France, Italy, Rus
STA, Cuba and the other allied coun-
tries.
1t is deemed probable that this
step will involve the formation of
an internally food commission, com
prising a director general of food
for each nation with the American
dictator as the head of the commas
sion.
This is was officially pointed out
has been the allies method of hanc
ling all it's problems. England dom1-
mates war finance. Other phases,
which it is desired shall not be dis
cNssed as they are not generally
known, are under the respective
direction of some one or other of
the other allies.
Domination of war divisions other
than food may be allotted to the
United States, but food will be the
most important.
The real crux of the conferences
going on here today is the inter
national reorganization of the war
since the United States is in, much
on the same principles that an army
of field fighters is organized; one
branch handling the commissary de
partment; another mobilization and
transportation; another the collec-
ton and distribution Of munitions,
and SO on.
Premier viviani, Marshal Joffre
and Admiral Chocheprat called on
President Wilson at the white house
during the morning.
They were met by the presidents
aide, and taken to the green parlor
whence they were conducted to the
blue room and warmly greeted by
TIE president.
The Frenchmen were with the
president only a few minutes. No
conference such as occurred between
the president and Balfour, of the
British commission, took place. After
greetings had been exchanged Vivf-

From floor and galleries instantly
came almost deafening Kissing which
continued several moments. the
man in the white house, Mason said,
hasn't the courage or political sag
acity to permit Colonel Roosevelt 10
enlist, for fear he will profit political
ly"-and the Kissing started.
Mason bitterly attacked the general
staff's selective draft plan. He SAID
nothing would please the kaiser more
than TO see an army of conscripts 60
to Europe to fight.
They call it the bill of the general
staff" he said, before they get
through they will call it General De
bility and General Red Tape Tho
general staff doesn't want Roosevelt
to enlist. He applied at the white
house.
'The president, | suppose, stamped
his application with red ink and re-
ferred it to the secretary of war. The
secretary referred it to the assistant
secretary, and he referred 1t to the
general staff" Mason charged thai
keeping Roosevelt out of the army is
part of the plan of opposition to the
volunteer system.

The conclusion reached is that
there is no just ground for such
high prices of many products, as are
dem anded Of the consumer at this
time"
The report recommends there is
urgent need in this country for or
ganization of comprehensive market
ing machinery which will put produc-
ing and consuming communities in
trading relations with each other
and make possible sending of perish
able products directly from the point
of production to point of USE
Municipal wholesale markets are
recommended.

lished reports; whereas in the first
seven months of 1916 the arrivals in
Holland were 100000 bags, 1918,
2,503, 900; 1914, 1,044,000, and 1913,
S94 1000.
The importations of Holland, from
the figures given above, also tend to
show that Germany and other coun-
tries engaged with her have been
obtaining supplies from that source,
as Hollands importations show a
very large increase. 1t will be noted,
for instance, that in 1913 and 1914
the imports were $4,000 and l,04i,'
600 bags respectively, while in 1915
they jumped to 100000. Thereafter
the blockade began to tell, as the re
ceipts declined until so far this yeal

War Cha nges the
Coffee Distribution

The effect of the war, the embar-
go, the submarine campaign, ETC., is
strongly reflected in the distribution
of coffee not only to the Netherlands,
which heretofore has always been a
heavy handler of coffee, but to the
countries allied with Germany, and
in those countries it is said coffee
is commanding a tremendous price.
Some statements have been made by
those who have recently been in Ger
many and Austria that any old cot
fee commands upwards of eight dol
lars pound.
Holland has always carried large
stocks, but according to U. S. Consul
Frank w. Mahih at Amsterdam they
have practically disappeared. In
peace times the statistics give that
country 100000 to 100000 bags in
stock at any stated period. The last
publication gives the following as to
stocks in Europe on July 81, 1917:
Netherlands, none; England, $4,000
bags; Havre, 2,o23,ooo; Bordeaux
$4,000, and Ma rseilles, $4,000, max
ing a total of 3,265,000 bags.
However, upon special inquiry
Consul Mahin learns that there is
some stock in Holland. OF course
| stock" in these statistics does moi
| include what is in retail shops, but
only what is held by importers
There were 165,1O3 bags In bonded
warehouses at the end OF July. Blu
; that is relatively a small stock. Al
the corresponding date of 1916 the
stock was 100000 bags; of 1915, 555.
900; of 1914, 100000; of 1913, 391, 900

LISTEN TO THIS!
->SAYS C0RNS LIFT
RIGHT OUT NOW

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because few
drops of freezone applied directly on
tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so 1t can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain
A small bottle Of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take OF every hard or SOFT
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
trritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. 1t is
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time.
