FOOD MEASURES
Up THIS WEEK
Senate to Begin Consideration
to Regulate SuppIieS-TO
Prevent boarding.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Having
provided for hghting forces in the
war by passing the army draft bill
and the measure increasing the navy
and marine corps congress now
concentrates its attention upon the
problems Of raising money 10 keep
lighting forces il the field and regu-
lating the food supply America must
furnish both for herself and her
allies.
The senate Monday will begin
consideration of food legislation,
while the house proceeds with the
$1,SOO.OOO.OO0 war tax measure.
During the week final enactment Of
the $3.50. 100000 war bUget bill,
with its authorization Of $750,000,
600 for American merchant ships. is
expected and possibly the admins
tratioa espionage measure also will
be passed.
Congressional leaders Sunday
night said that pressure within and
from the white house and other
sources for more speed in passing
the war bills already has had it's eff
meet.
Seek Food Survey.
The first administration food leg
islation 70 be taken UP in the SEN
ate Monday provides for a federal
survey of food supplies. measures 10
stimulate production, prevent hoard
ing and storage, licensing of food
dealers and conservation of bread
bases by mixing -four. The questions
of authorizing food administrator,
liquor prohibition and regulation Of
foodstuff speculation upon boards of
trade and other exchanges make the
date Of final action problematicl.
The revenue situation is regarded
still-in the formative stage, despite
the present war tax bill before the
house. Virtual rewriting of the
measure as it finally passes the
house is deemed assured in the SEN
ate. Already the senate finance COM
mitee's consideration has developed
sentiment for radical changes. Pres't
Wilson himself is reported TO be dis
satisfied with several features of the
house bill and is understood 10 have
so advised congressional leaders
with whom he recently conferred.
The ten percent tariff tax. especially
on merchandise now on the free list,
much Of which is foods, is said to be
especially distasteful to many lead
ers of both parties.
Say Tax Levy Too Large.
That the aggregate tax levy Of
$500, 100000 is too large is an idea
apparently increasing on the senate
side. The president is also said to
be doubtful on this point and there
are many who would not be sur
prised If the senate should reduce
the gross levy TO $4,000 1000 or
even less or an aggregate Of $780,
600. 900 under the original supple
mental estimates from the treasury
department. Further bond issues are
regarded as virtually certain.
In the senate, the conferees on
the espionage bill expect TO reach an
| agreement early this week, probably
with the adoption of the admins
tration amendment authorizing ex-
port embargoes and without any
! newspaper censorship provision,
Early agreement by the conferees
upon the S3,342, 100000 war budget
also is expected, as it is believed the
house will accept the senate amend
| ment for the administration ship

WASTE OF FORCE
RESULTS FROM
LACK OF. TRAINING
Copyright, 1917, By The Tribune
AksOcIatIOn.)
By IDA VI. TARBELL.

. The ounce Of bread is the emblem
of material waste. 1t means the food
of our armies and our allies. Not
less important than the ounce OF
bread is the ounce OF energy. The
wastaEe of woman energy since the
war broke out has been almost as
great az the before-war wastage OF
bread.
True, 1t has been based almost en-
Rirely on the desire to serve, pas
Uionats determination to contribute
something to the solution Of the ter
rife problem; but merely the desire
to do the useful thing never yet
brought about useful results.
Taken as a whole, the women Of the
country flung themselves into action
as soon as war became a certainty
without clear idea of whether or not
what they did was the thing needed.
I Feverish, energetic and frequently
ambitious to be leaders, they fell to
doing everything that was suggested
everything that they could hear that
women in France and England were
doing.
The problem in this country for
women can never be quite what 1t is
in Europe. That is, 1t can never be
, until we are actually invaded. To be
Z doing the things that French and
! English women now are doing is to
run ahead Of the gams-to give up
energy which ought to be focused
on the actual need
Food is our great emergency, and
( gardening has been the order OF the
day: but the energy that has been
/ wasted in putting in bits OF land that
never have before been cultivated,
where a crop will never grow to be
harvested, is obvious all over the
country.
What a pitiful demonstration OF
wasted energy has been the plowins
up of Fairgrounds and lawnS, while
on the outskirts Of every town. and
frequently within its limits, we're va
cant lots and fields! In one town

highest authorities was neceSrary &c
stop the frenzy before the children
lost their hardly won places to play
and the sick their gardens IN which
to lie and sit.
The problem OF the garden had moi
been thought of. There was no study
of the relative value Of the use oi
the particular piece OF land. There
was as little attention given often &c
e" the question OF the fitness OF the
volunteer gardener.
