SEES PLENTY OF FOOD
IF US. SEASON Is GOOD
Committee of Chamber of Commerce
of o. S. Reports on Agricultural
and Industrial Conditions.

Optimism regarding agricultural and
Industrial conditions in the United
states runs high in a report issued to-
day by the committee on statistics and
standards of the Chamber of Commerce
of the United States. The committee,
headed by Archer Wall Douglas of st.
Louis. declares that "a most encourage
ing and significant feature of the stu
alton is the general confidence of the
business world in the future. the large
volume OF business and the generally
sustained conduct of commercial ac-
tivity in the midst of wars alarms and
a future which is beyond any mans
ken"
Those in touch with fundamental
conditions have known all along that
there was never any real danger of
food shortage SO far as the United
states is concerned. unless because of
caiamltous and unusually unfavor-
aDle season. the report continues.
Inc real need was for a far greater than
average production, not for ourselves,
but for our allies across the water.
fortunately, however, il is an ill
wind which blows nobody good; SO this
unfounded apprehension had at least
the erect of stimulating production.
especially in garden truck: and, more
over, there was presented to the farm
ers an unusual incentive in the form
Of enlightened self-interest. which hnre
1ruit in equally unusual industry. be-
cause or abnormally prevailing high
prices of all food products. The con
sequent answer of American apricul
ture, for our needs as well as those
abroad. is the promise of an abunda n !
harvest OF food products beyond ne
Vious records, as a whole, in our ex-
perience."

MAKE SURGICAL DRESSINGS
FOR GUNBOAT ANNAPOLIS
Eighteen Red Cross Circles in Prince
Georges County Are Now En-
gagged in Work.

Work on surgical dressings to equip
the gunboat Annapolis has been start
ed by the eighteen Red Cross circles
in Prince Georges county, which have
volunteered to supply the equipment
by Wednesday. Mrs. Edgar Brown of
Lanham, central vice chairman of the
county Red Cross work of the Council
of Defense, is in active charge of the
work.
AS the Annapolis is a comparatively
small Ship Prince Georges county Is
working to supply enough dressings
to furnish a larger vessel. The finished
articles are to be sent to the Baltimore
headquarters for this work. Each
county in the state is to equip ship.
An appeal for the dressings was sent
from the headquarters Wednesday.
Prince Georges county is also pre-
pairing to show the new motion pic
ture film on food conservation, entitled
Fighting at Home" This picture has
just been released in Baltimore for
rural display and was made by cast
Of Baltimore people. The film will be
shown under the auspices of the
Council of Defense.
Arrangements also have been made
for an exhibition of the picture at
Hyattsville. Laurel and other points
will probably have it later.

New Order of War Department Ad-
mits 80 Per Cent More Men to
Second Officers Camp.

There are to be sixty-two men from

grading them for desirability.
The War Department order admits 30
per cent more men to the second camp,
but it will not affect in any way the
status of applicants already examined.
They have all been given Qualifica-
ton mark, and when Maj. Lanham has
completed his personal examination of
each of the $50 candidates he will Sc
lect the sixty-two who seem to him
best fitted for the school camp. A
few men have already been notified
that their applications will not be ac-
cepted. but this has been because of
organic troubles incapacitating them
or because they were obviously not of
the desired type for this officers school.
The first series of officers training
camps admitted a total of 10000 men,
$500 at each of sixteen camps. The
original plan was to admit 10000 to
the second series of camps. which is to
open August %. The new order will
raise that total to 20,8o0, provided the
candidates who present themselves for
final examination in each department
are passed up to that department.

That street railway facilities in the

belief expressed by the Capital Trac-

Investigations indicate that the COM

A recent observation at 18th and X

twenty-one cars passing in a fifteen
minute period. carrying $50 passengers
more than the maximum prescribed by
the commissions standard. According
to the commission, this was not an UNI
usual condition, but indicates the heavy
traffic demand which the company is
employing all resources at its command
to meet.
