Drawn blinds and signs announcing
no poultry is for sale are being used
by some East Side poultry merchants
to hide side door trade that is
equivalent to prohteering Cyrus Mil

portation, announced yesterday after a
of efn III I0o al
ers claiming to have no poultry were
charging as much as 80 cents a pound
to customers admitted at side doors,
although the food boards fixed price
is "A cents a pound.
He ordered several of these stores
rcopened and compelled the proprie-
tors to bring large quantities of chick
ems from cellars and offer them for
sale.
The price of onions fell abruptly
yesterday, and market men are predict
ing potatoes and apples also will be
very cheap soon. Choice Western
onions were offered as low as SO cents
a bag yesterday. The drop is said to
be largely due to the new railroad
rule which forces consignees to un-
load their cars as soon as they reach
terminals.
Market Commissioner Jonathan C.
Day announced that he sold yester-
day, in the city markets and in retail
st res, six carloads of fresh eggs, 72,-
600 dozen in all. at 80 cents a dozen.
IT, c retailers, who had offered to CO.
operate with the board, obtained the
eggs for 81 cents a dozen from DR..

ment to-day or tomorrow.
The Department of Markets to-day
will place on sale several thousand
pounds of pastcurized creamery butter,
in prints, at 4G cents pound, which
is from 3 to 6 cents less than the
market price Of unpasteurized butter.
Dr. Day announces also the coming
sale of large quantity of yellow globe
onions at So cents a hundred pounds.
lie says grocers are to offer them at

House Opposes Sectional
Aid to Wheat Farmers

WASHINGTON, March 81. - The
House tonight registered opposition to
the government loaning money to the
farmers'in any one section of the coun-
try IN an effort to stimulate a large
grain production this year. A bill de-
signed to aid farmers Of the spring
wheat belt of the Northwest was
amended to make it applicable to the
entire country. An effort to defeat the
measure after it was amended failed by
d vote of 143 to 106, and the House will
continue Its consideration tomorrow.
Before the measure was amended it
was attacked as sectional legislation by
both Democrats and Republicans,
chairman Lever of the Agricultural
Committee, in charge Of the bill, said
the committee believed farmers Of the
Northwest really needed governmental
aid this year because of the severe
drouth, while farmers in other sections
OF the country do not need help The
piii carries an appropriation Of ST 800
OoO, to be loaned to farmers in the
spring wheat area to purchase seed. and
sz,ooo,oOo more for supplying labor in
tnat area during the harvest.

Ration of Poilus
Cut During Drive;
Wheat Is Needed
News That French Armies
Suffer During Great
Task Rouses u. S.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Informa-
soldiers who are facing the onslaught
Of Germary's armies has been cut be-
cause of the shortage Of wheat has led
the food administration to plan drastic
measures to curb boarding in this
country.
Wherever there is evidence to support
a suspicion that the withholding of food
on which may depend the outcome Of
the war is due to disloyalty or profiteer-
ing, it was said tonight, prompt action
will be taken. State administrators
have been reminded that the food law
authorizes the requisitioning of grain
in the national emergency, and have
vcstigation Of cases of alleged hoard
ing. They will forward the evidence
obtained to Washington, whore steps
will be taken as the individual cases
warrant.
Allies Must Have Supply
Wheat for the Allies becomes more
imperative as the season progresses, be-
cause of the danger of loss in shipping
corn or potatoes after April /, when the
period of termination sets in. Up to
March Is the United States was SOC, 900
tons behind in ITS programme of cereal
export. Much of the programme was to
have been corn, but the breakdown in
railroad transportation delayed ship
ment, so that wheat, which earlier in
the year had been given priority, had to
be sent abroad TO avert famine.
AS only wheat and barley can he
shipped after April l, the public is
being asked to cut its consumption of
wheat to so per cent of normal, and
even that sacrifice barely will stretch
supplies, to meet demand unless every
bushel held on farms and in ware
houses is put on the market.
The March / report of the Depart
OF Agriculture showed 111,OO0,O0O
bushels of wheat on farms, and CO.
100000 bushels in elevators. Since the
agitation in Congress to increase the
price of wheat to $3.50, receipts Mt
mills have dwindled from 5000. 900
bushels to 100000 bushels a week.
The only requisitioning ordered so
far has been in the case of two
brothers of German ancestry, living in
New Mexico, who refused all offers for
wheat they had raised and had bought.
NO distinction was made by the Admin
istration between the grain raised by
the two men and that purchased and
stored by them.
Use of potatoes as substitute for
wheat, which has been urged by the
food administration, will not be pos,
siblc in some sections because of trafs
fc congestion. The Administration has
abandoned the idea of nation wide
educational campaign for that reason,
and Will depend on state administra-
tors TO stimulate consumption in those

Berlin Falls, Dresden and Leipzig
Threatened in 128th Street

Democracy is safe--in 128th Street.
Berlin fell yesterday-in 128th
Street.
Dresden and Leipzig are menaced
on both fanks and from the front and
hourly they are expected to be wiped
off the face Of the earth-in 128th
Street.
Patriotism is rampant, also in 128th
Street, and everything German from
dachshunde to dill pickles is taboo,
Chisels Led Attack
1t was under smashing attack by
heavy chisel artillery that the German
capital crumbled. All of which leads
to the following salient facts in the
case:
Years ago, when the apartment
houses at 21S, 220 and 222 West 128th
Street were built some person with
high regard for Germania christened
them the Berlin, the Dresden and the
Leipzig, respectively. But that was
long ago.
Last Saturday men stopped in front
New-York tribune., 1918-03-28

of the Berlin and casually observed
that the service flags and national COL
ors decorating the front of that house
did IT harmonize with it's name The
tenants, all ten of them, had visions
of a bombing expedition of reprisal
and thought it would be safer and
less expensive move to efface the Ber-
lin and keep the flags.
SO they asked William A. White e.
Sons. of 46 Cedar Street, their agents,
to wipe out Berlin, and yesterday a
small army of stonecutters erected a
scatfold and tore down the foot-high
lettering.
Dresden and Leipzig Next
Dresden and Leipzig cannot survive,
their occupants say, and the crowd
which saw yesterdays one-sided battle
agreed. Samuel Friedland, 1O8 West
l37th Street, and John J.. Brodbick,
1858 Briggs Avenue, The Bronx, agents
for the buildings. have been asked to
help win the war. Brodbick will do it
without notifying his owner, Chauncey
Biehler. of Peru, Ind Friedland
co~ldnt be reached, but the Dresden.
without the supporting columns of
Berlin and Leipzig, is not expected to
Withstand the siege.

sending constantly more and more
troops, you are taking your part in the
line.
"You are preparing now for any on
slaught which may be made upon you
You will have to go through the same
kind of suffering which We have had to
endure. You will not shrink from it
as we have not shrunk from it; you
will not finch from sacrifice as we
have not tlinched from it. Yo. will do
your duty>-I believe in my innermost
heart-as we have tried 20 do ours"
Lord Reading then explained that he
was incapable of talking in the ordi-
nary manner of an after dinner
speaker.
"I believe that you wanted to hear
from me as the representative of a
country which is fighting in the same
cause as yourselves, something of what
is happening over there In France
where our fortunes are engaged.
,"We, and you. if l may say so, when
we consider the present situation must
be careful, nevertheless, that we do not
ovcrestimate the effect Of Withdrawals
In considering whether or not the
enemy is successful we must have clear
ly in our minds what his aim is. That
is, as you so very we'll know, to break
through our lines and consequently to
crush all resistance. Nothing else is of
real moment. If there is no breaking
through, if the line is not broken, if
the line still holds, then there is moth
ing vital that has been gained by the
attack.
British Unafraid, He Says
"What is Of the utmost Importance
is that we should never forget to count
the cost to the enemy of any success
which he may have had. l notice that
General Won Hindenburg has said that
the first act is ended. There have been
bell ringings, flag wavings and decora-
tions in Berlin. But those who are ey-
perienced in the theatre from which
the simile is drawn would tell you that
1T is unwise to exchange congratula-
tions until the curtain is rung down
upon the last act
ut is not the first success that mat
ters so much. What will matter is the
end"
Lord Reading said that all the re-.
sources, all the effortS Of every man
and woman must be organized and mus
tered for the fight
IL speak for my country" he said in
concluding, "when | say we have no
fear, we have no doubt, we are not
