PETROGRAD SPECULATORS
 ARE HOARDING FOOD
LARGE QUANTITIES OF BUTTER MEAT, POTATOES, PEAS. FATS
 AND SOAP FOUND.

Petrograd, Feb 6-The search for food conducted by the BolsbeyilI au- tnoriues in PeUograd disclosed nearly 100000 pounds of butter hoarded by speculators 150 carloads of matches l500Q0 gallons of kerosene and large quantities Of meat potatoes. peas. fats and soap One speculator had 5000 pairs of childrens aaoes.
 Prices of foodstuffs in Perograd have fallen temporarily but with the failure of transportation higher prices are expected
 M NeVsky new minister of com- muuications, addressing the food con- gress, gave a black picture of the situation and threatened to resign uu- less trains were given machine guns and armed guards to protect them against soldiers, who he declared. were running unrestrained. attacking. robbing and killing The minister said passenger traffic must be eliminated indefinitely.
 The situation is all the more serious because the peasants refuse 10 eX- change food for Appreciated money Consequently manufactured articles must be supplied to obtain foodsufls Railways are running short of wood and soon will be without coal because they are unable to haul it.
 Madame smith -FalSner, a member of the fool control board, told the Associated Press today that the bread situation in Petrograd was improving and that the allowance would be in- creased Meat imports also are in 1 greater quantity most of it comin- from Siberia

THE TEST IS ON NOW.

Germans and Americans are at 1t hamer and tongs now. The Germans evidently talked about the high col Jared dudes" of the American army in such belittling manner that they came to believe it was opportme to strike a blow at the point on the line held by the Americans in the first active offensive, to put the Ameri- cans to the hardest test
 Of course the Germans have gained nothing. Our fighters were facing a new warfare. one they had not been schooled i'm until recently, but they have had some months of observance, and they know how to meet the at tack Of the enemy and how to hold him, The more they yecome used to playing this war game in the new way, the more they will be able to prove up their efficiency.
 A reasonable survey of the situa- ton now is that great early spring offensive IS to be staged soon, and that perhaps three months of un- broken battle twill be waged At the end of that time something else will happen, What that something else is we are not qualified to guess, but with an aerial activity ant an activity of the big 75s and of all the infantry perhaps by the time a few months oi hard warfare is induged, the enemy will come to know that he is playin. a steadily losing game, and perhaps 3 peace will come then that will be , peace for all the ages of civilization
