WHY We Need Food Control.

"The producer received an average
Of s1.51 per bushel for the 39l6
wheat harvest, yet wheat has been as
high as 1926 at Chicago. and the
price OF flour has been from time to
time based upon this speculative price
OF wheat, so that thru one evil cause
or another the consumer has suffered
from so to 100 per cent and the
producer has gained nothing. 1t Is
evident that this unbearable margin
Is due not only to rank speculation,
but more largely to the wide margin
demanded by every link In the chain
to insure great hazards of trade.
"All these factors render IL virtually
necessary to initiate systematic meas
ures which will eliminate all possibil-
ity OF speculation. cure extortionato
profits and effect proper distribution
and restriction on exports to point
within our own protection. n."-Herbert
Hoover.
Who Got Oklahoma's Margin?
Oklahoma farmers received for
their 1915 wheat crop an average
price per bushel OF sl.22. according
to the state board OF agriculture. They
bought flour this spring on the basis
OF 1926 wheat. Who got tho margin
OF $2.03 per bushel?
Plant Late Gardens.
Both necessity for conserving grain
and meat supplies and tho high cost
of foodstuffs make II urgent thai
every family plant fall garden where
a,oil conditions permit 1t is especially
important that second crop of pota-
toes be raised In order to add to next
years seed supply.

New York, June 1.--Duns Review
will say tomorrow:
With the additional stimulus inn
! parted by the extensive and increasing
! government demands, manufacturing
in most branches throughout the coun-
try continues under high pressure.
whereas in about all sections lessening
of ordinary distributive trade has be-
come more conspicuous feature. The
diminished retail sections largely re-
fleet the backwardness Of the season
and the extreme costs of necessities
are also influential in causing cur
tailed purchasing by consumers. That
the restricted movement of commodi-
ties has in some cases affected col
lections is now more evident and
where stocks of staple goods have not
undergone normal depletion, special
sales have been inaugurated to reduce
the accumulations. With the recent
perceptible lull in regular buying. re-
ports are heard Of cancellations of or
ders and some machinery not engaged
on federal work is now idle. Yet such
instances remain the exception and
while sentiment, especially in the mer-
camille fields. is clearly more conserv-
ative. it is recognized that some abate-
ment of activity is natural after many
months of remarkable expansion. and
leading interests display no loss of
confidence.

CHICAGO GRAIN

Chicago. June 1.-Evidence of export
demand at liberal premiums had a
bullsh influence today on the wheat
market. Prices closed unsettled. to
4 cents higher. with July at $1.9S and
September at $1.S2. Corn gained 3A
to IA cents: oats, Il to cent to rs
cents, and provisions. to 40 cents.
Strength in the wheat market re-
ceived a decided temporary check soon
after the opening. News that the port
of New York had been closed to all
outgoing ships led to considerable SELL
ing. and for a while caused material
set back in values. Later, however,
when word came that the ban on yes
sci departures at New York was lifted,
a sharp rally took place.
1t was more difficult today to buy
wheat than has heretofore been the
case at any time since the rules which
have restricted trading went into CT
feet. The chief bear factor, aside from
the temporary shutoff on outgoing
ships at New York. was a crop report
by a leading authority suggesting a
total yield of 100000 bushels more
in the United States this season than
was harvested in 1916.
Wet, cold weather did a good deal to
make corn values soar.
Oats had but little independence
Higher quotations on corn and hogs
lifted provisions.

Will Draft Eastern Guards.

Meantime the national guard units
of the eastern portion of the country
will be drafted into the federal armies
on July Is and the plan Of training
virtually all guard divisions in the
southern section of the country will
be adhered to.
All of the guard units will have
been drafted into service by August
5. That. does not mean, however, that
all will have been ordered to divi-
sional training camps at that time.
Presumably the best recruited forces
will be made ready first for duty
abroad, but there has been no an
nouncement as to the process to be
followed.
More than 10000 guardsmen are now
engaged in police work, guarding
bridges, factories and other structures.
and that work will have to be kept up.
The task of building cantonment
is a big one. Miles of roads. water,
sewer and light construction must be
put in. More than 1000 buildings must
be erected in each camp. and railroad
connections must be established. To
begin the simultaneous construction of
SO such cities, officials feel, would
have been more than the resources of
the department or of the country could
have borne without seriously inter-
rupting the ordinary course of COM
! mercial life.

ARMY TRAINING PLANS
UNDERGOING REVISION
Modification in Original Pro-
gram Announced by
War Department
TO HOUSE IN TENTS
Lack of Building Material
and Labor Reduces
Cantonments to is
av Associated Press,

Washington, June Important re-
visions in the plan for training the
war army have been made by the war
department. which announced today
that the half million men to be called
to the colors in September will be con-
centrated in Is cantonments instead of
80 and that many of the forces prob
ably would be put into tents instead
of wooden barracks.
Lack of funds, material, labor and
transportation facilities, Secretary
Baker said were determining influ-
ences in the decision to reduce the
number of cantonments. The previous
plan to build 80 of the camps was
reached. it was explained, after con-
gress had appropriated $77,000.000 on
the theory that there would be only Is.
The change is not expected. how
ever, to delay beyond September the
mobilization of the great draft army.
Four of the Is cantonment sites have
been selected and choice of the others
is expected soon. The four sites Sc
lected are at American Lake, WASH,
Atlanta, Ga, Ayre, Mass, and
Wrightstown. n. j.
A more plentiful supply of canvas
than expected made it possible to put
some OF the troops under tents and
army officials have preferred tenting
from the start.
In making the announcement, Secre-
tary Baker said also that forces in ex-
cess of those which could be cared
for in the 16 cantonments would be
placed under canvass. This was taken
as referring to national guard divi-
sions.
