THE WAR MISSION

Inc British war mission has left
the borders ct the United States after
six weeks of conference with Ameri-
can officials, and the question natur.
ally arises, '.N hat has been accom-.
plished?"
When America entered the war
against Germany, comparatively few
Americans realized the tremendous
sacrifices the nation would be called
upon to make il she expected to bring
the war to a successful end. We knew
that England and her allies needed
money, ships. food, soldiers, muai-
tions OF war and nottbe least import
ant, encouragement. We knew also
that the manner in which we accept
ed these burdens would have far
reaching effect on the morale of the
men in the trenches, who, for over
two and q half years, have been hold
ing OFF an enemy strongly and thor
,onghly organized in the art of war.
1t ia apparent that these men fight on
AND continue to suffer with the ex,
pectatlon that when the weight of
this nations resources are thrown
into the fray, success will come.
We say we knew all this. Rnt we
realize now that we knew the de
mands to be made upon the United
States only vaguely. We could not
comprehend the scope OF the under
taxing. A billion dollars here and a
few millions there, volunteer force
OF men to inspire the allied soldiers
In the trenches, the use Of our mer.
chant fleet, the cooperation of our
navy. our food surplus and our moral
support, we confidently believed,
would be sufficient. Bat we are mis-.
taken.
What the nations fighting for dem
ocgacy need aud what America must
provide are millions of dollars day
to insure the credit of the entente
countries here; then, not merely d
volunteer force, for It's moral effect
on the allied soldiers, but we'll
trained, fully equipped, conscript
army that Will maize It's strength felt
on the bloody fields of battle. We
must give our merchant ships and
baiia n thousand more to defeat the
submarine campaign while every
American must economic IN the use
OF food to feed the hungry cnes
abroad. Besides, our navy must aud
IS cooperating while our surplus
wealth will be required to meet the
financial burdens of tile government.
with the astonishing disclosures of
the grave problems which confront
the United States ana her allies,
America awakens 10 the fact Chat her
9ask IS not one calling for mere finan-
clal and material assistance, but one
that will force the nation to throw it's
every resource into the struggle if
she hopes to secure the future OF
democracy and rid the world Of an
element of continuous danger We
aye just realizing the sacrifices that
the situation demands. The reyela-
ton is saddenlng bat America will
go to the task with determination
that will go far in bringing the
Iflghlfal struggle to an early con-
ciusion.

BELIEVE AMERICAN GENIUS
 HAS FOUND WAY TO RID
 SEA OF GERMAN SUBMARINE
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON. May Slope is brightening that American inventive genius has found the road that may lead to freedom of the seas from Ger man submarines.
 conference of unusual importance Was held tonight at the home of Secre- tary Daniels. It was called in order that high officials of the navy might go over with members of the naval consulting board the experiments al ready tried and those that are i'll pros- pect
 They believe they are on the right road" MT. Daniels said. They believe they are going to turn out something that is worth while. There will be more experiments. Further than that I do not care to say"
 Other officials declared the scientists were coming down to brass tacks"; that the period of reaching out after every suggestion was passing. and that definite specialization of the work upon which the foremost American experts have concentrated was certain to come soon.
 Those at the conference were Secre- tary Daniels. Admiral Benson, chief or operations; Rear Admiral Taylor, chief constructor; Rear Admiral Griffin, chief engineer; Rear Admiral Earle chief of ordance; Rear Aomral Grant chief of the submarine service, and Captain William StrOther Smith, who forms the connecting link between the department and consulting boards and other scientific bodies.
 w. L. Saunders. chairman of the consulting board, headed the repre- sentation of scientists, which included life members of the boards committee on special naval problefs:
 Lawrence Addicks, chairman; Thom- as Robbins Elmer A. Sperry, and Benjamin E. Thayer
 Reports also were available tonight from Thomas A. Edison. who is at work on a somewhat different line of investigation.
 No intimation has been given as to the nature of experiments that have caused board memberse and naval of ficials familiar with what Is being done to hope that problem is nearing solution. None will be given, whatever the results of new worK, wnlch II IS understood will include practical tests of certain theories.

CROP ESTIMATES INDICATE 4 SHORT
 NHEAT HARVEST
[Republican 4. p. Leased Wirsl


 WASHINGTON, May S. Official wheat crops estimates announced to- day show that with the world facing a bread shortage, the United States, un4 less it cuts it's present consumption, probably will produce only enough wheat this year to supply it's own pop ulation
 The forecast, compiled by the deDart- ment of agriculture on conditions May l, put this country's winter wheat yield at Se6.000, ,000 bushels, the smallest in B years. There will be no estimate of spring wheat acreage until July. bat with a crop of 250oG0, 900 bushels. which is higher than the average, this country would grow this year total of only 616,0000e0 bushels The normal American consumption with seed re- quirements is put at slightly more than 0.009, 900 bushels.
 The cOuntry's greatest spring wheat crop was 352 ,000,0e0 bushels, produced in 1915. The five year average from 1910 to 1914 is 234.000,OO0. The esti- mated production this year of 366, 000, 900 bushels of winter wheat falls 116.- 000 000 bushels short of last years poor crop and 30S,000,000 below that of 1915, a bumper crop. It is 129,0000C bush els less than the average for the pre- ceding five years.
 Reserve stocks this year are said td be lower than at any previous time at this season. The visible supply is put now at 0.000. GOO bushels, with a some what larger invisible stock. The lowest visible stock ever repoI ted in the United States were 6,000,000 bushels on July 1, two years ago. When harvest ing of the new crop begins in July of this year it is estimated that the re- serve will be even lower than that
 The allies wheat requirements for the coming year are put at 500.G00,00 bushels as a minimum. The United States will be asked to supply more than half that amount. Wheat crops in other parts Of the world are poor The Argentine crop failed, and home con sumption will require the entire yield. Canada's production is confined chiefly ! 6e0,O00 bushels, most of which is avail able for export.
 Since the war started, America has exported to Europe vast quantities of wheat, reaching a high mark of 332, | 100000 bushels in 1915. Last year the : total fell to 243,000,00O bushels. Before the war it ran slightly less than 100 000.000 bushels
 i Production of rye is forecast at 60,- 735,00 bushels. Rye condition was SS.S per cent of a normal on May l.
