U. S. IS BOUND TO
WHEAT GUARANTEE

Washington, d. C.-The British
government is securing a supply of
wheat from Australia at So cents a
bushel, while Uncle Sam is paying
his wheat growers 1920 a bushel, un-
der contract that is to continue in
force until June 1. 1920.
1t makes no difference what comes
no matter how many millions of bush.
els of surplus wheat the world has
now or produces next year, the govern
ment can not escape the guarantee by
the president of 1920 for No. 2 red
wheat, such as Australia is turning out
to the British government at less
than dollar per bushel.
zoe. 100000 Bushels From Last Year.
Australia has more than 200.O00O00
bushels of last years crop and the
closing of the war opened her grana-
ries to the world unless Great Bri-
tan is needs demand all of it.
Interesting questions nave come
up in connection with the guaranteed
price to the American farmer. 1t is
this: If a New York miller has the
boats and will send them to Australia
buy wheat and bring it back to his
mills in this country there is no way
to prevent or punish him. He is free
to go after the cheaper what and
transport it to New York and mill it.
There was some talk of enacting
legislation to prevent the dumping Of
foreign products In the United States,
By the middle of January Australia
will have the new years crop harvest
ed. This will add to the surplus of
wheat already looming large since the
signing of the armistice.
1t is not likely, however, that there
win be any great rush to Australia
for the SO cents wheat, for ships for
that purpose are not to be had.
No Change Is Contemplated
There is little or no intention now
either at the food administration or
in congress to start any movement to
lower the existing guaranteed price
for wheat, because the farmers have
prepared for next years crop with the
governments promise of financial
backing

HOFFMAN HELPED
u. S. PRISONERS WAR

Paris, Nov. 30.-The condition of
American war prisoners in German
prison camps was some extent anne
liorated by the work of Conrad Hoff-
man an American Y. M. C. A. worker
who was permitted to remain in Bar
lin after most Americans either had
left or had been interned.
Hoffman convinced the German
government that the more he was al
lowed to do for the American prison
ers in Germany the better would fare
Greman prisoners in American hands.
He was allowed to employ neutrals
as his assistants on his promise that
members of his organization would
not act as spies or propagandists, but
solely to improve the physical and
mentalwelfare of the prisoners.
Largely through Hoffman's efforts,
1t is now stated, prisoners help COM
mittees were organized in all prison
camps in Germany containing Ameri-
cans and their needs were communi-
Gated to Mr.. Hoffman who forwarded
them to A. C. Harte, International Y.
M. c. A. secretary in Berne, Switzer-
land.
Both the Red Cross and the Y. M.
c. A. cooperated in supplying the
prisoners with food, clothing, money
and other necessaries operating
through that channel. Many letters
have been received at Y. M. C. A.
headquarters in Paris from the Amer
lean prisoners of war in Germany
testifying to the receipt of this aid.

PLAN FOR AIR MAIL
ROUTE BETWEEN ATLANTA
AND N. O. OUTLINED

Ensign w. H. Alexander, instruc-
tor at the naval aviation school at
Pensacola. Fla, called on Acting May
or ]. r. Seawright Wednesday, and
outlined plans to inaugurate an aerial
mail service between Atlanta and
New Orleans, some time within the
next six months. He asks the city of
Atlanta to grant the Aerial Transpor.
tation company, of which he is an Of
fical, franchise to land near the
city and also to furnish some three or
four acres of fairly level ground as a
landing place and as site to build
machine and carpenter shops which
he says will employ about one hun
dred men.
If the plans are carried out it will
be possible, it is said, to mail a spe-
cial delivery letter in Atlanta with
assurance of its delivery in New Or
leans seven hours later, which would
be less than half of the time required
by railroads to traverse the distance
Further than that, Ensign Alexander
predicts that within two years aeri.
planes will be competing with rail-
roads for passenger service.
The proposed itinerary of the ae-
rial line between Atlanta and New
Orleans will include the following
cities which will be landing places:
Montgomery, Ala. Selma, Ala, Mo-
bile, Ala. Gulfport, Miss, Biloxi, Miss
and New Orleans.
Ensign Alexander leaves for Mont
gomery on Wednesday and will visit
other cities along the proposed route
A communication setting forth the
proposition will be presented to city.

 MONTHS IF CRUISE
IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

LONDON, Feb. 26.-American and English seamen on board the Spanish steamer Igotz Mendi, says a dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph from Co., penhagen, assert that they were cap tured May 21 last. when the Igotz Mendi was on her way to Australia with coal. About midday a 6,000-to merchantman, painted black, appeared on the horizon, steaming slowly. Sud- denly the steamer detected the Mendi and made for her at full speed. One ot the sides of the strange steamer vas removed. displaying a number of cannon. Several shots were fired at the Mendi, which was forced to stop. lt then was discovered that the sQange steamer was the German auxiliary cruiser Wolf. The Wolf hoisted a German flag and a prize crew was sent aboard the Igotz Mendi.
 The next victim was the British steamer Matunga, which had a valu- able cargo. The British sailors were taken aboard and evidently were we'll treated
 All three ships then proceeded to desert the vicinity of the Dutch Islands, where part of the Matunga's s cargo was stored. The Wolf took aboard the most valuable portions of this cargo. The Matunga was then sunk by a bomb
 A few days later the American bark Belunga was sunk. Her crew was saved.
 The next victim was the Japanese passenger steamer Hitachi Maru, which was crowded with Asiatics. The Wolf being overcrowded, a num- Der of prisoners were transferred tu the lgotz Mendi A prize crew was placed on board the Hitachi Maru with orders to transfer the coal of the steamer. This. however, they were unable to accomplish and had to return to the Wolf. Thereupon the Hitachi Maru was sunk.
 The Wolf now was near Australia and the captain decided to return to Gerr any. The voyage commenced fourp months ago. The route taken was along the coast of Africa A sail ing vessel was fired on and sunk The Wolf afterward proceeded at full speed northward, still followed by the Igotz Mendi. The plan was to go to the north of Iceland, but the heavy

FORMERLY BUT SIX
 CABINET MEMBERS
CFrom Leslie's)

America is almost certain to follow England's example and create de- partment of munitions. Political eX- perts are convinced that President Will son will ask congress for authority to make this addition to his cabinet. If this is done, an even dozen voices Will be heard in debate at future meetings of the president and his official family. When the American government was established 12S years ago, half that number deliberated the policies of the nation.
 During George Washington's admin istrations, only five cabinet officers were considered necessary, viz, the secretaries of state, treasury and war, an attorney general and a postmaster general. The cabinet did not include a secretary of the navy until May 21 179S, when Benjamin Stoddert of Maryland was appointed by John Ad- ans as the first civilian head of Amer ica's sea forces. Almost a half cen- tury passed before the United States saw a second change in the size of the cabinet. On March s, 1S49, Thomas Ew- ing of Ohio was made the first secre- tary of the interior. On February IS 1889, Cleveland selected Norman J Coleman of Missouri as the first secre- tary of agriculture.
