SHOULD SEND 200 DOCTORS
and 200 NURSES MONTHLY
British Officer Makes an Appeal to the
American Medical Profession.
(By Assoclated Press.l J

New York, June s.-Appealing to
the American medical profession 70
realize its terrible responsibility and
respond ito the awful call of suffering
humanity by sending 200 doctors and
200 nurses to the western front each
month, Colonel T. III. Goodwin, rank
ing medical officer Of the Balfour COM
mission, declared that human endur-
ance cannot stand much more than the
surgeons of the entente allies are now
undergoing. They are now working
day and night, he said, to care for the
thousands Of shattered men brought to
them from the incessant battles.
Col. Goodwin, who was senior medi-
cal officer Of the British army on the
western front for year and half,
described as terrible the lack OF sur
geons and nurses. Mentaken from
rural districts and put into the COM
munal life of the armies, he said, de-
veloped infectious diseases and one Of
the great difficulties experienced in
combating this war the fact that
young medical men had no experience
in public health work
"On a short line there are from 20,-
900 to 10000 wounded in but a few
hours" he continued. shall we leave
them there or get them to the hos
pitfalls? Suppose we left them to crawl
in shell craters, to suffer for hours and
in many cases for days. People ask
why need medical men be killed as
they are n-conlbatants and should be
behind the line / think YOU will real
ize that the medical men must Be on
the firing line If the wounded are 80
receive proper care. Our losses of med
ical men have been considerable.

OUTLINES NEEDS
OF ALLIES FOR
COMING YEAR
Hoover Says They Will Re-
quire Billion Bushels
of Cereals
AMERICAS DUTY
rs SET FORTH
Economy, Substitution and
Voluntary Restriction
Necessary
fRu AnanciatAd Preas.N


Washington, June S.-Herbert G
Hoover's report to the government on
what the United States must do &c
sustain its allies with food, made pub
lie yesterday, shows that the allies
and few neutrals which must be con-
sidered, require during the next year
billion bushels Of cereals alone and
that their needs Of meat, fats, and
sugar also will be enormous.
Production in the allied countries
and imports from other countries can
meet only q portion of these needs;
America must supply the remainder
Americas surplus on the present scale
Of consumption will not meet the de-
flciency, Mr.. Hoover says, so he points
out that the enormity of the task re-
quires reduction of home consumption
in many ways.
Americas duty is set forth by Mr.,
Hoover thus:
"AII these conditions throw on North
America the brunt Of the burden OF
supplying our co-belligerents with the
human and animal food necessary TO
maintain their great armies in fight
ing condition, as we'll as to keep alive
and efficient the families of the fight
ers and the great industrial army at
home. -.
THE exports from America neces-
sary to meet these needs, which abso-
lutely must be met If the war is to be
won, or even is to be carried on at
all during the next year, must be i'm
mediately greater than they have been
in normal times.
The requirements in cereals alone
for the next year of the allies, and the
few neutrals whose needs must be
given some consideration. are billion
bushels. The needs OF meat. fats, and
sugar also are enormous. Native pro-
duction and imports from other coun-
tries can meet but a part of these
requirements. What is left must come
from us, yet this amount is far beyond
any surplus that we shall have IL we
try to maintain our normal consump-
ton. Our wheat prospects for this
year are not encouraging. A reason
able forecast would indicate a crop Of
between 650,000,000 and 700. 100000
bushels. We have never exported more
than 500. 600, 900 bushels Of cereals a
year, yet the needs abroad are for
twice that.
"The moral is clear: Our consun1p-
ton must be reduced. This can be
done, first, by elimination OF waste;
second, by the substitution for the
kinds Of food needed By the allies of
food not 30 needed, but which we can
just as well use, as corn for wheat,
poultry and eggs for red meat, and so
on; third. by voluntarily restricting
ourselves to a sufficient and sensible
ration, which, rather than being hurt
ful, will be OF advantage to us ply
sically, and If done at a little sacri-
nee of preference Of taste or inclina-
ton for feeling OF over-repletion,
will be Of advantage TO US morally"

PRIORITY BILL UP
Expected That Senators Will Mako
Vigorous Fight on Measure.

washington, June S.--The admins
tration bin empowering the president
to compel priority of shipment for
foodstuffs, fuel and other necessities
during the war will be taken UP to-
day in the senate with many Demo-
cratic and Republican senator's pre-
pared to make a vigorous fight against
It.
In conference with members OF COM
gress President Wilson has insisted
that the power asked should be placed
in his hands, even il 1t never became
necessary to exercise 1t as a part Of
the food control program.
Opponents OF the bill, Insist, how
ever that such power would be un-
reasonably arbitrary and that
preferential Roodstuffs shipment is
adequately assured By the present
cooperative agreement between the
roads and the defense council.

FEDERAL AGENT
RETURNS TO CITY
Efficiency Commission Opens
Headquarters at James
town

Headquarters for the state eficien-
cy commission have been opened in
the law offices Of Attorney Oscar J.
Seller at Jamestown, according to r.
]. Leth, one of the agents of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture. who has been dispatched to
North Dakota to work on the labor
situation.
Mr.. Leth, when seen this afternoon.
stated that complete survey Of the
state will be made within the next
two weeks, the idea being to interview
every farmer in the state and to en-
roll every man in the towns and the
cities who is available for farm SER
vice.
No Estimate on Help.
'It is a trifle too early to furnish
an estimate as to the number OF har'
vesters that will be needed in the
state said the agent. THAT will be
done following the survey and the
figures will be more accurate" The
survey will be made in every state Of
this country for the purpose of learn
ing the amount of help available and
to transfer it If necessary. With prop
er cooperation the department hopes
to be able to avoid the piling UP of
labor in large groups where not want
ed, but to lace it in sections Of the
state where there is need"
No Demand for Help Now.
There is practically no demand for
help in North Dakota at this times as
far as reports have reached US at
Jamestown" stated Mr.. Leth. "How-
ever, we are preparing for a call
within a month. The main work of
our department is aiding In the dis
tribution of labor and providing trust
agcfFh ny fnfprnaf fiOn ae tc hcw much
help is needed and when. We do not
intend to supplant labor agencies. We
probably won't furnish help unless the
agencies cannot meet with the situa-
ton. So far, the local officers have
not met the demands during past har-
vest seasons, SO the bureau antici-
pates plenty to do later in the sea-
son."
Not to Fix Wages.
Agent Leth stated that the commits
sion does not intend to flx wages, but
simply to help solve the labor situa-
ton, to learn the amount of help
needed on the farms. the number Of
work horses wanted and the number
available to be sold. and the
amount OF grain. hay and feed on
hand now compared with a year ago.
The survey blanks have been placed
in the hands OF q Fargo printery and
are expected to be turned out the
first of next week.

Severe Earth Shocks Con-
tinued for Two Hours

THEN VOLCANO
BEGAN ERUPTING
Fire Breaks Out in Doomed
City and Completes
Destruction
(By Associated Press. }

San Juan, June 8.-San Saliva.
dor, the capital of San Salvador,
with population of more than
$4,000, has been totally destroyed
according to a dispatch from San
Miguel, Salvador. No details as
to the manner in which the city
was destroyed have been received
but it undoubtedly was the result
of an earthquake or a volcanic
eruption.
A dispatch from Tegucigal,
Honduras, says that besides San
Salvador six other towns were
destroyed. One was a suburb Of
San Salvador.
II. Volcano and Earthquake.
Washington, June s. - Dis
patches from American Minister
Long at San Salvador, sent at 8
O'Clock last night while the vol.
cano Of San Salvador was erupt-
ing, said part of the city had been
destroyed by fire but that it was
under control. Great damage was
done.
The dispatch says that about
6:35 p. m. yesterday severe earth
shocks began and continued until
about S.45 with varying degrees
of intensity. At s:45 the volcano
began to belch forth fire and
smoke, apparently on the side Of
Quetzal Tepeque.
