M'AOOO MAKES DENIAL

Danger to Food Supply by

Washington, Feb. ga new climax
has been reached in the differences
between William C. McAdoo, director
OF transportation. and Herbert Hoo

son for the delay of food. shipments
to the coast.
Mr.. McAdoo, in a letter to the food
administrators, called on him to show
where the food was. The letter reads:
Dear Mr.. Hoover: You are, as !
understand It, the sole purchaser in
this country, of food supplies for the
Allied governments. You must, there

try. Cordially yours.
"W. G. McADOO."
In a statement issued Thursday

Director General McAdoo made pub.

actual figures OF shipments OF grain

Famous City In Palestine Taken
BY AlIenby's Forces -SmalI
Military Asset.
BRITISH GAIN STEADILY
Advance Beyond Jerusalem Apparent.
ly Meets No Determined Resistance
From Turks-Further Moves
Would Aid Arabs.

London, Feb. 25.-An official dis.
patch from General E. H. H. Allenby
says: Australian mounted troops
entered Jericho at $50 a. m. Friday,
establishing themselves on q line be-
tween Jericho and Wadi Anja."
Wadi Auja is a small tributary OF
the river Jordan, which run about
five miles north OF Jericho.
British Advance Steady.
Since the capture Of Jerusalem the
British have been pushing ahead
steadily, striking out to the north and
east. Official statements from Lon
don in the last few days have report
ed rapid progress and apparently the
Turks offered 40 determined resist
ance.
Importance Is Historical.
Aside from its historical Importance,
in connection with the British plan
to free the Holy Land from the DOM
nation of the Turks, the capture or
Jericho is of little significance. 1t
consists mainly of a group of squalid
novels and a few shops with about 300
inhabitants. Its chief strategic value
lies in the fact that 1t gives the Brit
ish domination of the valley Of the
Jordan and also control of a network
Of highways ~radiating from the town.
A further advance eastward of rs
miles, however, would take the BRIT
ish to the railway from Damascus to
Mecca, which would cut off the Turk
line of communication with Arabia
and greatly assist the revolving Arab
tribes which are cooperating with the
British. Jericho is near the northern
extremity of the dead sea, IA miles
northeast of Jerusalem.

appropriation of $780, 900, 900 is pro-
yidec as a nucleus for fund to buy
rolling stock and terminals. Such
purchases would remain the property
of the government.
Next to the conclusion OF the short
line railroads the most interesting
step OF the Cay was the rejection OF
amendments by Senator Cummins to
limit the government return to the
roads to not more than 6 per cent
upon their capital stock. Following
this defeat, the administration turned
