A special commission was some time
ago appointed to examine into conces-
sions that have been held by the Bank
OF n0nd0n and Messo d for
acres in the Territory of Quaintana
Roo and $4,000 acres in the State of
Yucatan. These lands were granted on
the condition that they should be colo
rized. Investigation has shown that
rnis was never complied with, but that
the exploitation of the chicle and other
products was the only use made. Be-
cause of such failure the lands have
been forfeited to the national govern.

ever possible to those who are desir-
Gus Of cultivating them.

CHRISTIANIA, April 17.-Wholesale
purchase of American money, mostly
by Danish agents working for German
principals, has cleared the local market

AUTHORITY TO
INCREASE WHEAT
PRICE GRANTED
Authority is Given Food
Grain Corporation by Or
der of Wilson.

WASHINGTON, June 24.-Blanket
authority to increase the price OF
wheat at primary and other markets,
with the approval of Food Admins
traitor Hoover, above the 1920 a bush
ell minimum prive guaranteed by Pres
idential proclamation last February Fl,
is given the Food Grain Corporation In
New York by an executive order OF
the President. The order issued under
authority of the food control law was
made public today by Mr.. Hoover
To carry out the purposes of the or
der the corporation is authorized to
increase it's capital stock from $50, 1000
900 to $15O,00O,OOO in shares of a par
value of 500 each. All the stock will
be owned by the Government and will
be purchased by the Food Administra-
ton from time to time as the necessity
arises to maintain the present $3.50
price and any increases authorized.
While no explanation Of the order
was given, two considerations were be-
lieved to have Influenced the Presi-
Corporation to pay higher prices for
wheat. The first was the increased
freight rates which will become ef-
fective Tuesday Growers must bear
this increase, and without an advance
in the price of wheat their profits
would be materially reduced.
The second was believed to be the
situation resulting from the deadlock
in Congress over the Senate amend
ment to the annual agricultural bill In
creasing the minimum guaranteed
price Of wheat to $3.50 bushel. The
House has refused to accept the
amendment and the Senate is to vote
on it again this week.
In some quarters it was believed
that the Presidents action would be a
factor in influencing the Senate to re-
cede from the amendment.

The people in the United States
know more about the var than the
men over there, according 10 Frank

serving in France.
In letter received by his father
Vincent Rhodes, of Centerville thf
soldier described his work as cook
for the men in his company as som.
job
Yes, am cooking for 29O men over
here now" he writes, but l e. not
work more than Is days in one month
but believe me that is plenty hard
cooked for four years in the United
States, but only for 100 men.
You ask me If l have killed any
Huns. / can't tell you anything like
that, but you know the cooks have
most of their fights with tie battery
men.
Il certainly would like to see you
all again, as think and almos> know
will, but have no idea now long il
will be before I do. You people in
America know more about this war
titan We do here. That doesn'. sound
right, but you do.
Il have been over here now eight
months, and altogether we haven't hal

Sparks from Enginee
Cause Fiue Small Fires

Fire destroyed the roofs of two cot
tages, owned by Joseph Zeller. one the
home of Carl Spickman, 534 North
Eighteenth street, and the other the
home Of Ray Wright, 532 North Eigh-
teenth street, and caused three other
small fires on Eighteenth and Nine
teenth streets, Saturday afternoon at
4:30 o'clock. The fire is believed to
have originated from sparks from en-
gines on the Pennsylvania railroad.
The loss is estimated at $1,000.
Both families were at home when
the alarm was turned in but neither
were aware of the fire. By the time
the fire department arrived the entire
roofs of both cottages were in flames
and the houses across the street in
direct line with the wind and one
barn on North Nineteenth street
caught from the blaze. The fire was
smothered and put out quickly

Take the first three numbers OF

to it the size OF your sncc.s then sub
tract the number of outl2ns missing
from your last summer suit and di
vice by the size of yo,ir colia,. Add
to this the total amount Of your m

Next, add the combined weight OF
Your entire family, plus your serial
number in the draft ard divide by TIE
number Of speeches tia. Mr. McAdo1
has made on the increA'a for railroad
employees. The result will &c the
amount of increase in rate OF pay that
you may expect.
When I am dead and laid away
The last of my thoughts will be back
pay;
And on my tombstone I want wrote
Waiting for the increase got my goat.

ReIentIessIy PURSUING.


In the first rush of the Austrian
offensive the enemy succeeded in
crossing theold river bed which Is
now canal From their positions
there the foe has been driven back
and the Italians are relentlessly press
ing the pursuit.
The latest news dispatches from the
Piave river front sent out on Sunday
thrown across the main stream of the
Pave which seems to indicate that
the Austrian retreat was not stayed
at the eastern bank of the river
There is every indication that the
Austrian hunger offensive" has been
forlorn hope for several days. The
effect of the defeat on the internal
conditions of Austria Hungary when
once the news is made public can only
be conjectured, but it may be that
the Italians have dealt the enemy a
harder blow than that merely involved
in the military feat of pushing him
back across the Piave.
There have been no further reports
foreshadowing new attack in the
mountain sectors Of the Italian front.
Thrilled by their signal victory in
the lower regions of their battlefront.
however. the Italians and the allied
troops fighting in that theatre of the
war may be expected to meet any
new move with the stubborn resist
ance which so far has nullified the
efforts Of the Austrian emperor to
carry the war into the plains of Italy
and still the murmurs of his soldiers
with the loot of captured cities.

Antheuil west of the Disc was beaten
off on Sunday night. British troops

dilates at length on the burdens plac-
ed on the troops by the heavy rains
and the torrential Pave. Most OF the
bridges are gone and the Italian heavy
artillery is still within range at points
where the Austrians crossed and near
the river bank where the Italian line
was held fast.
Undoubtedly. General Diaz's men re-
alize the predicament of the enemy

Withdrawing from Montello the en-
