Efforts to Reorganize Sabot-
age and PrO-German Pro-
paganda in America Re-
vealed by Federal Agents; (;
Scores Are jailed.
HUNDREDS OF SPIES
STILL ARE AT WORK

Washington, D. c. Jan. 10-Through
intercepted communications and eVl.
dence found on score or more OF
arrested aliens, government agents
have discovered concerted move
ment to reorganize German sabotage
and pacifist propaganda in this coun-
try.
The movement was broken up and
enemy activities now are believed to
be confined to sporadic cases carried
on largely by pro-German sympathiz-
ers without guidance from central
Headquarters.
THIRTY GERMANS ARRESTED.
This was disclosed today by govern
ment officials who declined, however,
to give all the details surrounding a
series of measures recently taken to
prevent the rebuilding Of unified en-.
emy spy system. 1t is known that
about thirty Germans and few Scan
dinavians have been arrested on sus-
picion Of completely in the new plot.
The Germans have been interned and
the Scandinavians sent out Of the
country. Some Americans are under
suspicion and are being closely
watched.
PLANS WERE ELABORATE.
The evidence gathered in the round
up indicated that few leaders, whose
identity had not been disclosed but
who are believed to be neutral sub
jects, tried to communicate with a
number of agitators located mainly
in eastern seaports, in industrial CEN
ters and in the extreme west, to de-
Sabotage was to be conducted sys-
tematically and propaganda for peace
sssrs(issemination OF pessimistc war
reports was to be stimulated unoer
direction of a recognized head. There
were indications also that the head
quarters was to gather bits of infor-
nation from all parts of the country
and forward it. to Germany through
the north European neutrals by code
communications carried by members
Of ship crews or other means.
MANY SPIES At WORK.
Hundreds of self-appointed spies
are now believed to be at work in the
United States but officials disclaim
that they worry much about them.
Many are said to be members of the
Industrial Workers Of the World,
which has carried on organized de-
struction under stimulation in some
cases, the government charges, with
German money.
Fires and explosions which have
occurred recently are said to be the
work of individual cranks, probably
pro-German in their sympathies but
without direction of master organt-
zation.

FEARS
BREAD FAMINE
America Risks Shortage to
Ship 10000, 900 Bushels
of Wheat.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 10.-The
food situation in Europe is regarded
here as so critical that the food admin
istration is planning to release an
additional 10000, 900 bushels of wheat
despite the fact that the normal ex-
port surplus had been shipped by the
middle of December. The American
people will be asked to save to make
up the deficiency.
The demand from the allies is so in
sistent that the food administration
has decided to take a chance on a
shortage in the spring to meet in part
their needs. If consumption is not re-
duced, officials see possible short
age of flour in the United States in
May before the new wheat crop comes
In, in June.
MAY PROHIBIT WHEAT USE.
Food administration officials are
seriously considering asking congress
for legislation to enforce wheatless
days and are taking up with millers
and bakers the subject Of mixed flours
and the baking Of war bread.
Representative Lever, author of the
food control bill, is drawing legislation
now to make wheatless days COM
pulsory and the food administration.
it is understood has given its approval
to the new measures.
FOOD BEFORE SOLDIERS. ssssS
Although the inter-allied conference
at Paris agreed to turn over ships for
the transportation of Aner;can- trooy !,
food conditions have reached such a
state that many officials are Of the
opinion the allies may at present pre-
fer foodstuffs.
So far as known, however. there
has as yet been no change in policy
and the food administration has been
given no more ships for moving food
than called for in the schedule pre-
pared some months ago. A determine
ton of the balance between food and
troop shipment will be left by the
American government largely to the
allies themselves.

RUSSIA At PEACE

Swiss Report Says Separate
Agreement Has Been
Completed.

Berne, Switzerland, JAN 10.-A sep
arate peace agreement has been
signed by Russia and Bulgaria, the
Bund reports.
A Bulgaria correspondent OF the
Bund says Premier Radoslavoh read
the following dispatch from Brest
Litovsk in parliament:
"War between Russia and Bulgaria
ceases. Diplomatic and economic re-
lations between Russia and Bulgaria
are resumed. Russia recognizes Bull
garia's right to nominate a delegate
to an international Danube commits
sion. The first peace is thus conclud-
ed at the consent of Bulgaria's allies
RELATIONS RESUMED.
The Bund says Bulgaria has ap-
pointed minister to Petrograd and
consul general to be stationed at
Odessa, and has ordered the resump-
ton of navigation to Odessa.
Bulgaria took part with Germany,
Austria and Turkey in the first
negotiations at Brest Litovsk and it
has been assumed that no peace terms
would be agreed to by the central
powers except in concert. However.
advices yesterday giving the names Of
those who took part in the first ses-
sion Of the Brest Litovsk conferences
when they were resumed this week,
made no mention of a Bulgarian rep
resentative.
RUSSIAN TERMS ACCEPTED.
King Ferdinand of Bulgaria is credit
ed with opposing the formula OF peace
without annexations or indemnities,
declaring Bulgaria should retain the
territory she had won. This would
interfere with a peace between Russia
and Bulgaria, however, inasmuch as
the territory Bulgaria desires consists
of parts of Serbia and Rumania. Pre-
mier Radoslavoff was quoted in a
Sofia dispatch last month to the ef-
feet that Bulgaria had accepted the
Russian proposals, providing for end
ing the war;. restoring commercial
treaties in effect before the war and
settling the Danube question.

Indianapolis. Ind. Jan. l0.-An esti-
mate that at least 50,000.000 more
tons of coal than were produced in
1917 could have been taken out by the
miners in the country is contained in
a statement by John l.. Lewis. vice
president of the United Mine Work
ers of America, made public today.
Mr.. Lewis formerly was statistician
for the organization. He sent to all
locals in the union a QUESTIONABLE
asking the number of idle days due
to car shortages.
Many locals were unable to give the
information desired. The reports re-
ceived from thirty eight Illinois locals
with a membership of 12.137. out of a
total Of 307 locals, with S7.lS9. show
loss of time due to car shortage the
equivalent of 2.314.273 tons.
Ten per cent of the Ohio locals re-
ported loss of time equivalent to
1.521.5sS tons: 12 per cent of the
Pennsylvania bituminous field locals
reported loss of l.22S,60S tons. and
Is per cent Of the Indiana locals show
ed loss equal to 1,l23,315 tons from
the same cause.
The total of 50.0o0.O00 tons was esti.
mated by Mr.. Lewis by figuring the
average idle time reported and apply
ing that figure to the total member
ship.

The administration of the countrys railways by the government

are naturally possible when it practically makes no difference

gets done in the best way, the quickest way, and the cheapest way.
Two documents just published furnish, the one a declaration of
principles, the other a record of accomplishment.
In leaving his work for a short rest-and certainly no soldier
McAdoo, as director general Of railways, made an admirable declara-
