with appetites that lord it over in such tyran-
nical manner that we cannot forego meat and
wheat.
Uncle Sam is worrying about our appetites
and not about the patriotism of the dealers, for
most of them the country over, have attested
their willingness to abide by federal regulations
The restaurants, hotels and dining cars have
made much better showing of patriotism than
the individual citizens have. The managers of
these eating places have arranged their menus
in accord with the governments request. In the
months of November and December they saved
100000 pounds of meat and 100000 900 pounds
of wheat.
The failure of the private homes to obey the
mild regulations of the first order has brought
about the second order and will ultimately result
in the enactment of compulsory measure

Anybody who knows the present state of
things in Belgian industry will agree with me
that it must take at least some years-assumng
that Belgium is independent at all-before Bel
GUM can even think Of competing with US in the
world market. And anybody who has travelled
as have done, through the occupied districts of
France will agree with me that so much damage
has been done to industrial property that no one

more than ten years before we need think of

Aviation Doesn't Exist Lon
don Correspondent Says,

LONDON. Nav t.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press)-German
aviation has proved a signal failure in
the great offensive on the western front,
according to the Morning Post Writing
from the front the paper says:
German aviation does not exist at
present. There are two principal rea
sons, the first being the tremendous
wastage caused by the incesSant attacks
of the British and French pilots on Ger
gan machines, the second being the
bombing OF airdromes The enemy to-
day suffers from lack both OF men and
machines in It's flying arm.
IN every department the Germans
have been and still are exerting their
full strength. II they had airplsnes
available there is no doubt that they
would have made full use of them, as
we have done. for observation purposes,
10 prevent the bringing up of reinforce
ments, and to disorganize troops on the
actual field Of battle. They have done
none OF these things effectively.
The conclusion seems manifest that
II is because they have not the necessary
force available, In any case the fact
reipains that German aviation has
ceased to be force to be seriously
reckoned with. In the last four weeks the
situation, which on several occasions
has necessarily been delicate, would
have been very much more so, had the
Germans been equipped with an ade-
quate air service TO supply them with
definite observation"
