London, July 1.-THE war has
caused the belligerent countries of
Europe the loss of not less than 12,-
100000 potential lives because of the
decrease in the number of births re-
sulting from the war, says Sir Ber-
nard Mallet, Register General of
Great Britain. This country, he as
serts, has lost in these potential lives,
100000 children. Be believes that
other belligerent countries have suf-
fered in this respect more than has
Great Britain.
Sir Bernard estimated that every
day of the war means loss of 1000
potential lives of children to the Uni
ted Kingdom, France, Italy and the
Central Powers. Dealing with the
decline in the birth rate here he said
the births registered in England and
Wales in 1913 numbered 1900. In
1915 they fell to S14,614, in 1916
there was further fall to 7SO,52O,
and in 1917 to 66S,346; a decline Of "a
percent compared with 1913.

Big Sugar
Cut Coming
By August
Food Administration Prepares Nation
For Shorter Ration-Must
Supply Gamers

Washington, July 13,-With the
new sugar crop six months distant
and the heavy demands for sugar for
canning growing daily, the country
should be prepared for still greater
reductions in the sugar ration. Aug
ust may bring another cut.
The American who loves sweet
drinks is likely to find before the
early fall that the popular beverages
are no longer so palatable unless
plenty of substitutes are developed.
The demands of the Gamers must
be met, as bumper fruit crops have
been raised, and foodstuffs cannot be
allowed to go to waste. The food adj
ministration plans to distribute the
reduction over a period of months, so
that he restrictions will not work
sudden hardship. While there is no
real sugar shortage in any section
that cannot be met,it is to prevent Sc
rious conditions arising that the
further reductions are contemplated
this far in advance.
The present ration is on a basis Of
three pounds per capita month, or
thirty-six pounds per capita a year.
This is considerably ahead of our
allies. Britain has a sugar ration cf
twenty pounds per capita yearly, and
France has about sixteen pounds.
Italy does not go over twelve pounds.
Federal Sugar Administrator Ia
briskie is working out new distri-
button plan, which he soon will be
ready to announce. Factors in the
situation which make lowering of
the ration necessary are smaller
beet sugar crop than anticipated, due
largely to a shortage of labor; the
unavailibility of many sugar mar.

These Monster Bombers Will Garry
Three Tons of High Explosives
Plane Equipped With Liberty
Motor Climbs 1888 Feet
Per Minute

Washington, July 13.-Monster air
planes of a hitherto unheard-of pow
er and carrying capacity are being
designed by Uncle Sans aviation
experts as the next step in our avia.
ton program.
The new planes, to be used for
night bombing purposes, will be of
800, 1900 and ,600-horsepower, and
will be able to carry up to three tons
of high explosives They will be
driven respectively by two, three and
four Liberty motors each.
Work on the design of these planes
may properly be begun now, as actual
production of the Liberty-motored
day bomber is now coming along in
better shape One factory alone, in
the last week in June, averaged more
than twenty completed De Haviland
bombers each day, the weeks ship
ments from this plant numbering
14O planes. All went direct to
France, and each was completely
equipped with Liberty motor, syn
.chronized and flexible machine guns,
bomb-carrying apparatus, etc.
This factory, which fifteen months
ago was not yet conceived, today is
turning out more planes than any
other airplane factory in the world
But its output is to be practically
doubled by another still greater
plant that is just now getting into
production, while a score of smaller
plants will each turn from five to
fifteen planes daily into our accum-
ulating airplane reserves,
