The raise in price yesterday ranging

or indirectly interested in oil. If the

WHEAT FIRST STAPLE
ON CONTROL PROGRAM
Regulations Go Into Effect
September l; Bread Price
Will Be Reduced.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 13.-Plans for
and for regulating the manufacture
and sale of flour were completed to-
day by the food administration.
Creation of a wheat control board
will be announced as soon as President
Wilson has approved its personnel
This board, comprising officials CT the
food administration and leading men
from the grain and milling industries,
will be made responsible for putting
into effect measures announced last
night by the food administration,
Regulations governing the control Of
wheat from the time it leaves the
producer until it reaches the boxer
will go into effect September !. To
eliminate speculation all elevators and
mills of more than one hundred bar
rels daily capacity will be required to
take out government license.
In fixing a price to be paid pro-
ducers for wheat the food administra-
ton, II was SAID today, will seek to
give the farmer fair price and at the
same time name a figure which will
permit the public to receive bread
at price much below that now pre-
vailing. Licenses will be granted to
flour mills only on condition that they
charge "A fair ana reasonable price Tor
their product. AS soon as the wheat
and flour industries have been put
under regulation the food administra-
ton plans to exend its controlt to
bakeries, hoping to reduce the price
now paid for bread.
The price Of the 1917 crop of wheat
to the farmer will be fixed by COM
mittee of which President Garfield of
Villains college will be chairman. The
names of the other members have not
been made public. Congress ir pass
ing the food bills set price of 50 on
the 1918 crop.

TRAINERS OF WAR TAX
EXPECT LONG CONFLICT
Senator McCumber Says Pres
ent Generation Should Not
Pay Whole Bill.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 13.-Speakiny
In the senate today on the war tax
bill. Senator McCumber declared that
the whole tax scheme contemplated
period that will cover four years and
that unless the war should end sud-
denly. the United States would have
to expend $4,000, ,009,000 in that
time. He said that America might
have to put five million men in the
field and he believed their support
and sacrifice should be enough tUr
this generation, adding that 1.-The war
debt should be borne by our emanci-
pated children"
Senator McCumber declared that
business must not be unduly ham
pered or crippled, pointing that tho
business profits must not furnish only
all taxes. but the money to absorb the
bonds. He said he wanted to see the
poorer class and business of moderate
means make sufficient profits TO per-
nit them to purchase most OF the gov
ernment bonds and leave the iarSe
capital to continue in business and re-
spond In taxes for the support Of tho
government. Taking so per cent of
income for taxes. he said. is likely TO
result In withdrawal from business
and it's investment solely in govern
ment bonds as the average business
only pays Z per cent net. and by so
doing they would escape all further
taxes and responsibility OF business.

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE
AND BELGIUM, Aug. 13.-Lens was
the center of the main activity on the
British front last night. The Germans
continued to exhibit signs OF appre-
hension in heavy bombardment OF
the back approaches near Vimy and
to the west and northwest Of the city.
The Canadian lines have been grad
ually tightening about this important
French mining center and the Cana
dams now hold strong positions in the
western environs. This apparently
has been disturbing to the Germans
who have placed high value on the
retention Of Lens because of its en-
viable position in the Pas de Calais
coal fields.
Yesterday was another big day for
the British air service. A large num-
ber of battles were fought over this
front with the honors decidedly in
favor of the British. At least six
enemy planes were destroyed and
nine other machines were brought
down out OF control
In the course of last weeks fighting
one brilliant Britisher accounted for
his fortieth machine.

Kansas City Street Car
Men Refuse Peace Offer

KANSAS CITY. Mo-. Aug. 13.-
Hundreds of strikebreakers, maroon-u
- hours at the little town of Selsa
Mo-, after having been forcibly de-
ported from this city where they had
been brought to break the street car
strike, tonight were to be taken ease
ward over the Chicago K Alton rail-
road bound, according to railroad Of
ficials. for Chicago, New York, Phila-
delphia, St Louis and other points
where they had been recruited. The
movement was one of the outstanding
developments of the sixth day of the
strike that has paralyzed the trans,
system of the Kansas City Railways
company here and at Kansas City,
Kan.
The decision by the street car COM
rany to send the strikebreakers away
came only few hours after the srrlk-
ing employees had voted to reject a
peace proposal made by the company.
AS result Mayor George H. Edwards
tonight was reported to have taken a
gloomy aspect of the possibilities of
quick settlement.

Mexican Coast May BE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13-Renewed
reports of hidden German wireless
stations or supply bases on the MeXi-
can gulf coast may lead to a search
of those waters by American war
ships. Reports to the state depart
ment and navy department contain no
confirmation of the report of discov-
cry or wireless stations on Lobos
island and the coast of Campeche, but
it was indicated that n careful scru-
tiny of southern waters might be
made for traces OF German raiders or

Campeche is district almost isolat-
ed from the interior by immense

nit that agents of Germany might
