ST. JOHNS CADETS
AT SAUNDERS RANGE.
Cadets Of College Battalion OF
For Three Days Target
Practice.

The students of St Johns College
left this morning in body for Saund-
ers Range. where they will be en-
camped for three days for the annual
target practice.
Heretofore, they have gone in re-
lays and returned on the same day,
but this year the features of an en-
campment are combined with the reg
ular rifle competition, and it is
thought will be of great advantage in
the very earnest training that is now
given, with a view to actual and ac-
tive service, when they are called to
the colorS.
In consequence of the absence of
the student body, the defamation
contest which was appointed for Fri
day evening, April 19th,has been post
poned a week, until April Goth.

WILL SEND EVERY
TRAINED SOLDIER
A LARGER ARMY THAN WAS ORIG
lNALLY PLANNED TO BE SENT
10 FRANCE JUST AS FAST as
THEY CAN GO.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The War
Department is planning to ask Con-
gress for appropriations for 100000
men more than anticipated in Febru-
airy for the fiscal year 1918. Sup
Elemental estimates will be laid be-
fore the military committees in a few
days to cover this addition. The bill
at present carries about $8,000,000,-
900 for an army of 1 100000. By
increasing the size to 2,6,000,0O0 men
it is believed the appropriations viii
run up $1,000, 100000 or more.
Chairman Dent of the House Mill
tary Committee conferred with Sec
rotary Baker. The secretary will APP
pear before the committee today in
closed session to inform the commit
tee in detail of the needs of the forces
abroad
81 found the secretary highly OPP
timists,'' said Mr.. Dent.
Plans were put in motion for quick
work on the army bill. Leaders are
anxious to cut off general debate. The
appropriations in the big supply bill
for the fiscal year 1919 probably will
be made Immediately available, should
the War Department need the money.
The plan of rushing a constant
stream of men to France will make
it advisable to call for 100000 more
Immediately. 1t is probable that
twelve. and possibly sixteen new can
t0nments will be required for housing
the great forces. This will call for
an appropriation of at least 100000
600 Additional housing will probably
be provided in France for winter
training.

off all communication between tha

all entente officials there. It was
stated that 10 American officers are
in the Ukraine.
The state department has received

and Austrians i'lttnd to dissolve the

HUNT FOR WHEAT
To Be CONDUCTED
FOOD ADMINISTRATION TO SEIZE
EVERY GlSHEL THAT FARMERS
FROM COAST TO COAST HAVE
BEEN BOARDING,

WASHINGTON, April 23-The Food
Administration is conducting a vigor-
GUS search for wheat held by farmers
suspected of disloyal and mercenary
motives in refusing to market their
grain.
The hunting down of the hoarders
will be carried on more Systematically
as the normal marketing time draws
to close.
Fifty million bushels is the amount
of wheat needed by our allies out of
the present crop, and the conserva-
ton measures adopted in this country
are expected to yield that large a
surplus.
The Food Administration demands
that wheat grown in the Southern
states be brought to the market not
later than May l. For the Northern
tier of wheat-growing states, May Is
is set for the dead line.
While grain, except in a few cases
of enemy boarding, has not been seiz-
ed yet, sufficient pressure is being
brought to bear wherever stored grain
is found to induce the owners to sell
their yield to the government at the
current market price Of 1920 a
bushel, without waiting for an ex-
pected rise.
Food administrators in many states
have turned up wheat where no salts
factory reason could be had for fail
ure to market it. In every instance
the government has taken over such
crops, paying the market price.
The search is being prosecuted from
coast to coast, and wherever man is
located who has a supply greater
than his individual needs, he will be
told that the government wishes TO
purchase his wheat
