MILITARY POLICE
 B|G PART OF WAR

With the Americans on the British Front in France-One of the inter- esting characters seen on the roads behind the line is the military policeman. He is stationed at every crossroads, regulating traffic with all the gestures of professional traffic policeman in New York or Chicago, but in a khaki uniform and with red brassard on his arm as the badge of his authority.
 Everything from a gigantic motor truck to sputtering motorcycle canes within his jurisdiction. The haughtiest staff car, with it's proud staff flags and its red-capped pass engers, is subject to the law as laid down by that firm arm in khaki.
 It is a motely pageant that he marshals There are big closed cars
 
 open cars filled with young staff officers of lesser rank, but alert, energetic and keen. There are evenly-moving ambulances with the doctor sitting calm beside the driver There are huge lorries, long columns of them.
 All day long the rush of traffic on these great main roads continues. Towards night the roads are some times quieter, but there is still activity. All through the night, the lorries plod on their way backward and forward, the cars dash by, the dispatch riders come and go. There is no rest. Layer after layer of white dust settles on the houses and the fences. Day after day the ma chinery behind the war goes whir- ring on, growing constantly more complex and more powerful.

ADULTERATION OF FOOD
 RAMPANT IN GERMANY

AMSTERDAM may truly he said that the people are being given stones for bread, "the Berlin Vor- waerts says in commenting on a food adulteration statement issued by Director Roehrig of the Munich pal Analytical Bureau of Leipzig.
 Director Roehrig asserted that samples he examined of prepared meats contained ''the most loathsome slsughterhous offal," and that chalk, plaster, alum, soda, sawdust and plain common clay are in great demand and fetch unprecedented prices because they are used exten- slvely for purposes of adulteration.
 ''Erastz Schweinerei, (which tran slated means "Swinish substition, was the heading on the Vorwaert's article.

FRENCH A|RMAN DOWNS
 MANY ENEMY A|RPLANES

FARIS.-First Lieutenant Rene Fonck, of the French air service, is officially credited with the destruc tion of 60 enemy planes, although he has actually forced down 97 since his first flight, August 6, 1916. Fonck used one machine in shooting down fifty of the German airplanes.
 q have had the joy, the murder ous joy, of having killed 67 crews,' Fonck wrote recently, "and l must confess that no nightmares disturb my sleep. The more l kill of these assassins the happier I shall be and the more convinced that I have worked not only for France but for humanity.
 ''The only thing to use with the Boche is force."

Germany. This statement is made by the Chemical Institute of Leipsig and is published in the Berlin Tage- blatt.
 Dr. Roehrig. writing the report for the institute, said that the min eralization of food-stuffs was in creasing. Gypsum and chalk are used to adulterate flour, baking powder and spices. Sawdust, straw dust and nutshell dust are sold at the incredible prices as food adult erants. Carpenters glue is used in the manufacture of pudding pow der, and flour sweepings in the bak- ing of bread Foreign substitutes found in the bread included flax fabrics, cotton, wood pulp, straw and sand.
 The bread of one bakery con- tained 13 per cent of copper. In pepper was found 84 per cent of ashes and per cent of sand.
 Some of the food profiteers are being sent to prison as we'll as be- ing fined. In one case reported by the Tageblatt a storekeeper in Ores den was sentenced to one year in prison and to pay fine of 192,292 marks.

BOCHE BALLOON
 SHOT DOWN BY
 BRITISH A|RMAN
BRITISH AIRDROME, In France

How the inspiration" of a mom- ent led to the destruction of a Ger man sausage" balloon by British observation airplane was related by the airplane pilot, Lieutenant c. w. Elderkin, to the Associted Press The pilot and his observer were re- turning from an observation flight when they discovered the balloon.
 Far over the Hun lines 1 could see one solitary balloon below the clouds, the young lieutenant said. "Doubtless it was up to make a weather report. The sight of it gave me sudden inspiration. I scrib- bled on my pad;
 Shall we 'strafe' the balloon?'
 Il passed the message over my shoulder and a moment later looked around. The observer was all mods and grins.
 "It was a risky adventure, but the conditions were very favorable. 1 commenced to climb towards 2. gap in the clouds we'll behind our lines. In three minutes time we were up above, bathed in brilliant sunshine. Below, the clouds had the appearnce of trees well covered with snow. I steered due east by the compass.
 Five minutes later I looked about Not a Hun was in sight and we were invisible from the ground. Down went the nose of our machine, and in a few seconds we were in a clammy mist 1 could see nothing, but we were dropping rapidly.
 "A few seconds, and the earth ap- peared. I could see the balloon nearly mile away. The Huns had spotted us, for black Archie burst began to appear. They became thicker and thicker, barring our way to the balloon. The gunners had got our height perfectly. Suddenly, I dived very steeply, pulled up and climbed again. We could now hear machine guns from the ground. But we had passed the barrage and were heading straight for the balloon.
 "I popped off about 100 rounds from the front gun and turned in the direction of our lines. The ob- server then got busy. He had fired only about twenty rounds when we saw mere speck of fire. Watching closely we climbed towards the clouds. The speck became a flame, and, still increasing in size, com menced to fall-a huge sheet of fire. "The 'Archies' were firing by thi(. time more vigorously than ever, and several machine gun bulletts had pierced our wings. A moment later we disappeared into the clouds. Fly ing by compass fourteen minutes more, we dived again, hardly daring to hope that We should recognize our position
 "To our relief we found our selves practically at home, and hay ing landed on the airdrome reported to a slightly incredulous squadron. Our exploit was duly confirmed, and. we were congratulated, and then 'strafed' by the commanding officer for risking a good but unsuitable machine on such dangerous ex- petition.

INFLUENZA

Service scientists believe, is very similar to the epidemic of grippe which swept the country during the winter of 1889 and 1890.
 Very probably, the infection, resurrected in Europe, and after sweeping the war-torn countries, now has gripped the United States, has a very ancient history, taking it back to the day of Hippocrates and Livius, more than four hundred years before Christ.
 The best means of treatment of influenza cases were communicated to the country recently by Surgeon General Blue through the Associated Press. Now General Blue has issued a leaflet which tells something about the strange malady.
 Ut seems probably that in 1918, as in 18S9-9O, the earliest appear ance was in Eastern Europe it says. By April cases were occur ing on the Western front. In Spain, according to reports, 30 per cent of the population were attacked in May. The 1889 epidemic, starting in Northern Europe, also fell heavily on Spain; the present ruler, then 3 years old, being one of the first attacked in Madrid. The king of Spain is said to have been attacked in the present epidemic. The epi- demic of 1918 was at it's height in Germany in June and July. It. has appeared in practically every sec tion of Europe. In England the cpl demc prevailed in May, June and July.
 "Outbreaks have been reported from various sections of the United States, but the spread has been by no means so rapid as in 1889, when the disease occurred in America al most simultaneously with it's appear ance in Western Europe.
 The symptoms in the present pandemic have been an acute onset, often very sudden, with bodily weak ness and pains in the head, eyes, back, and elsewhere in the body. Vomiting may be symptom of on- set and dizziness if frequent. Chilly sensations are usual, and the tenn peIature is from 10G to 104 degrees, the pulse remaining comparatively low. Sweating is not infrequent. The appetite is lost, and prostration is marked. Constipation is the rule. Drowsiness and photophobia are com mon. The fever usually lasts from three to five days; but relapses are not uncommon, and complications, particularly pulmonary are to be feared. The death rate is usually given as extremely low; but in the latter periods of an outbreak an in- creased number of deaths, presum- ably due to complications, has been reported in Spain and in the United States. Besides bronchitis and pneu- monia, inflammation of the middle ear and cardiac weakness may follow the disease
 ''The short course of the fever ialways less than seven days) in un- complicated influenza is an aid in diagnosis. All ages are attacked, young active adults being especially susceptible. In Germany there has been such a preponderance of cases among the young that it is supposed that the 1889 epidemic conferred an immunity on most of those at pres ent over 30 years of age This has not been observed elsewhere"

ZURICH.-Several Polish Roman Catholic priests, together with lead ing members of their congregations, have been imprisoned by the Ger mans because they concealed church bells to prevent their confiscation by the German military authorities, Warsaw papers report. None of the prisoners have been brought to trial. They were merely told that they have to remain in jail until the bells were found.
 Some years ago Paderewski, the pianist, gave magnificent bell to the church at Kansna. This the Anstrians have requisitioned to the intense indignation of the parish Oners.

PAGE FAVORED THE BILL.
Agricultural Appropriation Measure Was
Passed By Senate

Washington, d. c., March 22-Tht
agricultural appropriation bill, with the
Gore amendment increasing the 1915
government guaranteed wheat price to
$3.50 was passed late yesterday by the
Senate. 1t now goes to conference be
tween the two houses, where there will
be another fight over the wheat price.
The rolcal showed New England
senators voting as follows:
For: Republicans Hale of Maine, Nc.
Lean of Connecticut, Page of Vermont
and Weeks OF Massachusetts,.
Against: Republicans Gallinger of
New Hampshire and Lodge of Msssachu-
sets.
The other members of the New Eng.
land delegation were not recorded.
The total vote showed 10 Democrats
and 80 Republicans in favor, and 10
Democrats and two Republicans opposed.
The wheat price amendment was
adopted, 30 to Is, after five days dis
cussion. The bill, carrying appropria-
tions of $2S,000,000, was passed without
a rollcall, the principal fighting centered
on the wheat provision.
Acceptance of the amendment by the
House is hoped for by its champions;
but despite the overwhelming vote by
which the Senate wrote the price in
crease into the bill, administration lead
ers do not believe that it could prevail
finally if, as has been reported. the OPP

AT the end Of February Emperor
Charles, in an order widely commented
on to day in Austro- Hungarian circles,
appointed as an aide an admiral who
would no longer be responsible to the
parliamentary delegations. A paper in
Budapest assures us that this measure is

that the present commander of the fleet.

by a Magyar The disturbance seems
also to have affected tho military forces

batteries has been rocking the country
side for hours.
The Germans have employed gas shell.
freely and constant stream of high We
locity shells has been breaking with
frightful conclusions far back of tn,
British lines.
The bombardment began in earnest al
) o'clock this morning and about five
hours later the enemy force hurled them
selves on the British front line trenches
north of Lagnieourt and Louyeral, the
latter place lying due west of Boursles.
| At the same time other German forces
advanced behind smoke barragc along
| the ridge running northward from Gou-
zeoueourt. 1t may be said that the at.
tack on this region was by no means un-
expected by the British, and they had
made great preparations to meet the on
slaught.
The two vast forces have been locked
| in bitter struggle over this wide front
for hours. The hombardment was of a
most terrific nature. and finally the in
fantry drove forward against numerous
points in the Cambria sector The pre-
liminary bombardment had extended
from point below st. Quentin north 10
the river Searpe and at last-reports san
culinary fighting was in progress as far
south as the region of Hargicourt and
as far north as Bullecourt.
The early stages of the battle would
seem to Indicate that the enemy was try
ing to drive a wedge on both sides of the
Cambria salient and pinch it off. A keen
struggle has been proceeding in the
nsighborhood of Bullecourt and Lagni
couII and south of the salient near Har
gicourt and Ronssoy.
The British had been looking for this
attack to-day. Not only have prisoners
declared that yesterday or to-day would
mark the beginning of the offensive on
this front, but there were abundant signs
of an enemy smash against this sector,
which was the scene of the last great
battle in the British theatre. That the
Germans were as thoroughly prepared as
possible was well known and as con
sequence the British had taken extensive
steps to meet the blow.
II is too early to predict the outcome
of the first few hours of the struggle, in
which vast forces and every conceivable
engine probably were employed. On gen
eral principles, however, it may be stated
that the great concentration of attack
ing f0rces viii probably result in the de- |
fensive line being pushed back in places. /
This would merely be history repeating |
itself /
This much is certain: At no period |
has the British war machine been in such |.
perfect condition. Never before has there |
been higher morale or optimism among
the British troops. The general impress
sion ON the front is in agreement with |
that of the Germans-that this is the |
decisive contest of the war. But on the
British side there is no doubt that the
decision will eventually be in the allies
favor.
Germany is stalking everything on this
play, and if the great attack fails to
break clear through, it is believed that
the Germans win be finished, for they
have nothing further to offer except
weakening defense.

RoMERI GIVEN VERDICT.
Judge Directed That Case Against Him
Be Stopped.

A Jury trial consummated in 10 min
utes was the record established in mu-
nicipal court proceedings this forenoon in
the case Of State VS.. Louis Romeri,
charged with selling cigarettes to a mi
nor Three witnesses testified for the
state, and Magistrate H. w. Scott, after
appointing V. u. Ayers as foreman. di-
rected the jury to return verdict OF
not guilty. Barely a quarter hour had
elapsed when the jury was dismissed.
Romeri, merchant doing business at
32l North Main street. was represented
by r. A. HQar, and States Attorney
Earle II. Davis conducted the prosesu-
ton.
Apparently the states case hinged on
the testimony of Leo Enright, l9-year
old boy, who denied having purchased
cigarettes of the respondent, although
he admitted telling the states attorney
and the chief of police that he went into
the store to get some cigarettes. En-
right claimed that he made admissions
to the authorities when he was ''nerved
up as he expressed it. Chief Sinclair
testified to conversation with the boy
at nalice headquarters, and William H.
Rock. with whom the first witness re-
sides on Farwel street, denied pllrchas
ing cigarettes for him. Attorney Hoar
rested the defense as soon ms the state
had done.
