MACNUSSEN IS
 NOW LOCATED

Herman Magnussen, the man who was reported lost up the Big Chen1 by men who came down early in the week, has now been located and is on his way to town. according to Ed Jern, who arrived Thursday from the Big Cinema country. Magnussen was lost while enrou:e with Jern to the latter's cabin on Bowlder creek, playing out and los ing his way when Jern went on ahead to the cabin.
 The searchers for the missing man figured out the way they thought he might pass, walking about in a circle, and left caches of food, and the lost man encountered one oi these caches while he was wander ing about, and thus was able to get along all right. He was lost for three days, siwashing it two nights, but as the extremely cold snap had not set in, he did not suffer greatly. He finally located the cabin and reached it in safety.
 Jern said that there was no trace in the Big Cinema country. so far as he had heard, of Finan Delaney, the Fairbanks boy who has been missing for two weeks, and who, it was thought, might have wandered off in the Big Cinema direction.

 TO SEIZE FOOD
 IS WIDESPREAD
Associated PresS)


 BOSTON. Mass. Nov. 30.-Agents of the department of justice located here confirm the recent startling disclosures made by the arrests of seventy Italian anarchists at Seattle. charged with conspiring to assassi- nate the king of Italy and fomenting disturbances both in the United and in friendly countries The plot also included the seizure of great quantities of foodstuffs in various parts of the country, according to local federal agents, and its scope was widespread.
 The first knowledge of the plot was discovered more than six months ago, when federal officers arrested three men for advising numbers of men of military age not to register for the draft and to refuse to com ply with draft regula tions after they had been registered. Information Se- cured in these arrests led to the ar rest of all the ringleaders in the plot and many of the members Of the anarchist organization.
 Startling evidence is said to be withheld now and will not be made public until the trial of the accused plotters.

France Sees Finish of War. if

London, March 15.-London is past
expecting anything but the worst from
German submarine commanders, but,
nevertheless, reports of some of the
details of the sinking of the American
steamer Algonquin aroused indigna-
ton here today.
Survivors stories showed the U-boat
crew laughed at the plight of the sur
vivorS when they refused any aid in
towing the ships 1ifeboats nearer
shore. The Algonquin's crew was al
most used up when picked up, owing
to twenty-seven hours strenuous pull
ing at the oars afloat. They insisted
the submarine. which was variously
identified as the U-38 and the U-39,
sent rain of shells at the Algonquin
from a considerable distance md
ishing lifeboats by this salvo, before
approaching near enough to finish the
vessel.
Then the Germans went aboard,
promptly hauled down the American
flag and then exploded bombs in the
ships hold.
France Urges U. S. to Join.
Paris, March 15.-France believes

If the United States today at the
last line before war with Germany

means a swift decision for the en-
tente.
The ultimate victory, of which
France is confident, will be fastened.
For this reason the French govern

officials Authorize Views.
These views may be regarded as
those of the French government.
The United Press was authorized to
state them today as the opinion of
high officials. Names of these per-
sonages cannot be given for obvious
reasons But the unanimity of their
views reflects the attitude of the
French government itself.
These officials have not altered in
the least their complete confidence in
ultimate victory for France and her
allies. The French people are pre-
pared cheerfully to endure every sacri-
flee in achieving this victory. But that
cheerful spirit of sacrifice and certain
not lessen their realization that if
America enters the war, the victory
will come sooner and the period OF
sacrifice will thus be shortened.
With America aligned with the en-
tente, the issue will be decided, the
French believe. The government be-
lieves such decision will be the final,
Overwhelming blow to Germany, both
morally and physically.

wages and abundance of work, in

individual saving power.
Borrow 500 Millions.
Just now we are on the verge of
hostilities. That breach means that
within three, four or five months this
country will borrow 500 million dol
lars. 1t means an increase of SO per
cent in our national debt. 1t is an
extra burden on the next four or five
generations"
Prof. w. A. McKeever of the state
university urged increased food pro-
auctions. He advocated an organiza-
ton of the boys of the state whom he
would interest in backyard garden
ing.
''Kansas has $4,000 to 100000 half
grown boys who should be modified
into an army of food producers" Prof.
McKeever told the food delegates.
Capper on Economy.
The meeting was formally opened
by Governor Capper in his offices in
the state house. Discussing the food
situation, Governor Capper said in
part:
Il have every confidence in the
public spirit of Kansas-as well as in
the business sense of her producers.
L have not called this meeting for
the purpose of pointing out to our
farmers their duty. But l am thoroly
convinced that business foresight
counsels a speeding-up of produc-
ton; the world needs every pound of
foodstuffs that we can produce, and
the world is ready to pay for it; so,
patriotism aside, business sense says,
Produce it.'
Il have no specific suggestions to
make: the situation is one which calls
for the expert; but L hope you will
give. due consideration to the potential
possibilities of the cultivation of va
cant lots in scities and towns and the
growing ORA larger portion of the
family food supply on the farm. A
number. of Kansas towns are already
arranging for the use of vacant tracts
of land; this should be encouraged in
a systematic manner.
81 trust that this conference may
outline a constructive program, based
on sound economic principles, en-
bodying suggestions of what to grow
and the best methods of growing; the
securing of adequate farm labor; the
economical marketing of farm prod
ucts; the financing of the producer
who is hampered by lack of capital,
and such other points as may occur to
you as pertinent to a larger agricu1-
tural production in Kansas in the i'm
mediate future.
1--WE all realize, am sure, that we
must approach these questions in a
sane, business-Hke manner; keeping in
mind that the farmer is a business
man, governed by the same motives
as munition- and other bust
ness men. It is his business, his duty,
10 make his farm yield the largest pos
sible income. If our deliberations and
suggestions are to carry any weight
whatever, they must be based upon
