 Rationed As Bakers
 Strike Is Unabated
(By Review Leased wire)

CHICAGO. May 1. - Negotiations between Chicago's striking bakers and the bread manufacturers had reached deadlock tonight and as a result housewives were forced to what amounted to war rations of flour and bread.
 An inspection trip to grocers and hospitals by Dr. John D. Robertson. city health commissioner. disclosed that grocers were selling only about two loaves of bread to each household and flour only for immediate needs. the maximum sales being 25 pounds.
 "Grocers throughout the city are careful not to sell in such quantities as would enable housewives to hoard four" said Dr. Robertson.
 Some hope of a settlement was ex- pressed as a result of the expected arrival here of Frank Morrison, sec retary of the American Federation of Labor, to inquire into the failure of the strikers to observe the promise to refrain from strikes during the war.

Administration Wants Small Force to Go, Just As Soon As Ships Are Available, To Discourage Germans"
EITHER REGULARS OR
 GUARDS TO BE FIRST
Plea of Allies Outweighs U. s. Army Staf's Contention That Months Are Needed To Develop Army.
(By Review Leased wire).


 WASHINGTON. May 1.-The United States stands ready to send an army to Europe whenev- CT the allies deem it wise to di- vert the necessary shipping from transporting food to transporting men.
 Ships Only May Deter
 It became known definitely to- day that the government has of- fered the allies troops. but has suggested that the alarming shortage of world shipping may make it impracticable to send them at once. In spite of objec- tions of the general staff to put ting any American forces on the fighting line before the great war army has been raised and trained the administration is determined that the small contingent earnest ly desired by France for it's moral effect shall be sent as soon as possible. General belief here is that a way will be found.
 "Who'll Be the First?-
 Whether the force first to carry the Stars and Stripes into battle in France shall be made up of regulars or national guardsmen. or both. has not been worked out. The subject was not discussed at tcday's cabinet meeting but Sec retary Baker remained afterward for a conference with President Wilson.
 To Discourage Germans
 State department officials have continuously urged the sending of an army not solely for it's psy- chological influence on the allied troops. but in discouraging the Germans. It is conN inced that the diplomatic advantages far out weigh the technical and training difficulties advanced by the gen eral staff. trey have felt that such a step would consecrate the Un- ited States as a full member of the alliance entitled to a most honorable seat at the peace con ference.
 The amount of tonnage that would be required for transport is usually put at about twenty tons per man in a fully equipped force. For the regular American unit of 24.000 men. nearly half a million tons therefore. would be necessary or ships about equal to the seized German tonnage in American waters. It remains for the allies to figure cut if they can afford to divert that amount of shipping.
 Little doubt exists that the French will gladly put up with any sacrifice necessary to have American troops in France.
 The British also are known to be anxious to have American troops in France as a final ear nest of American participation. but there is reason to believe that

Compromise On Ages Subject To Draft Expected To Make Men Between q And 35 Liable For Service.
(By Review Leased Wire).

WASHINGTON, May l. - Confer ences on the war army bill, passed for second time by the senate today, probably will not begin for several days. Conferences of the senate ana house will meet tomorrow, but they also have the task of smoothing differ ences over the annual army appropria- tion bill and they will take up that task first.
 Disagree on Appropriations
 There are not many points of dis agreement in the appropriation bill and leaders hope to see both measures completed in time to have President Wilson attach his signature during the present week.
 LafolIette Is Set On
 The senate passed the war army bill again today to clear up parliamentary tangles. without any serious effort to revive the struggle over the volun- teer system as opposed to the selec- tive draft feature. Senator Lafollete spoke in support of a substitute with referendum on raising an army by draft to send to Europe, but it was defeated, 6S to 4.
 Differ on Age Limits
 Principal points of differences in the houses inclde the so-called Roosevelt amendment in the senate bill; the diff ference in the ages subject to select i've draft, the senate bill specifying those between 21 and 27 and the house bill 21 to 40. and the senate bill's army prohibition section.
 A compromise is expected on the age limits, possibly fixing the mini mum at 21 and the maximum at 35.
