Great Bitterness Arises Be-

George and Asquith
Premier Loses Ground
Supporters Are Confident of
Overwhelming Victory-La-
boris Manifesto Not Issued
Tribune k01idon Rurean


LONDON, Nov. 23.-The resigna-
tions of Lord Robert Cecil, Under Sec
rotary for Foreign Affairs, and J. R.
Oiynes, Food Controller, two men
widely differing politically but both
greatly respected and trusted in all
shades of opinion, and representing
moderate influence, leave the Lloyd
George coalition leaning still more
heavily on it's right wing.
After these designations the coali-
tion will go to the country with a con-
siderable loss of prestige. Lord Cecil
states that his resignation has moth
ing to do with foreign affairs but that
1T is the result of a difference of opin-
ion with Lloyd George on the question
of disestablishment of the church in
Wales. The Cecils are one of the few
English families paying great atten-
ton to church matters, and though a
number of Conservatives nominally will
stand behind Lord Robert, it is un-
likely that his lead will be followed by
many, if any, other prominent sup
porters of Lloyd George.
Both men were much in contact with
the United States in their departments.
Of all tho British statesmen Lord
Cecil had the most sympathy for the
American viewpoint and studied deeply
and with respect all American ideals
when these were often considered idle

u. S. Saves Starving
Madeira Islanders
Red Cross Also Succors Mo.
roccans and Receives Por-
tugaps Thanks

WASHINGTON, Nov 23.--America,
destined to become the greatest food
reservoir Of the world, already has
saved the several hundred thousand
inhabitants of the Madeira Islands
from actual starvation. Some time
ago, word was received by the Ameri-
can Red Cross that the islands were
in dire need of food supplies. They
had money enough to buy what was
needed, but countries with available
surpluses had no ships in which to
ship the needed provisions.
About the same time. the Navy De-
partment, also learning Of the situa-
ton. made arrangements with the
Governor Of Morocco to let the un-
fortunate colony have 500 tons of corn,
with the understanding that the
amount would be replaced by the
American Red Cross from the United
States shipments to France. Plans arc
now being perfected for the shipment
Of an equal amount each month as long
as need for assistance is evident
The government of Portugal has
formally expressed it's appreciation of
the services rendered in preventing
apparently unavoidable famine in it's
colonial tarritory.

old it is evident that there is no sign
of Improvement whatever in the treat
ment of prisoners in Germany. This
disgrace is open and fragrant, and the
only possible inference is that Berlin
deliberately approves of It. There is
no doubt that work in the mines is
inflicted as punishment, Here is an
extract from a letter dated May 20
last from British private soldier:
We have had little to eat since we
gone to the hospital with broken arms
and the remainder are suffering from
cuts on their heads and bruises as
the result of foggings they received
at the last place. fell in a faint,
unable to work any longer, last Sat-
urday, and the man in charge, civil
ian, kicked me back into my senses
and kept me down in the mine six
teen hours after all my gang had
gone up. If you could only see the
boys here! They all look like dead
men. They are worked to DEATH"
The record of daily promiscuous vio-
lence might be much further illustrated
To. scores of men who have given
evidence concerning the mining camps,
kicks, blows and insults become a

an example. from the testimony of a

British Prisoners Are
Raggea, / hungry, Miserable
Thousands of Men, Released From German Camps AR
Compelled to Walk Fifty or Sixty Miles Without
Food or Money-Nany Died by Roadside

LONDON. Nov 2S.--Pitiable condi-
tons among British prisoners Of war
who have been liberated by the Ger
mans since the signing of the armis-
tice are described by Reuters corrc-
spondent at French headquarters
Thousands of these men, mostly Brit
ish, are entering France daily. The
correspondent writes:
Il have never seen human beings in
s5cs state OF raggedness, hunger and
misery When the camps at Forbach
thirty-eight miles east of Metz, as we'll
as those elsewhere, were broken up. the
prisoners, most Of whom were captured
during the March offensive, were told
to clear out and seek help from the
Allies They started to walk the fifty
or sixty miles to the Allied lines, but
were given no food and had no money.
They were in shameful rags, the soles
dropping of their boots Some wore
clogs and no socks.
They left the prison camps in droves
OF hundreds, in charge of German off
GERS and soldiers who had deserted.
1he weather was very cold, and many
died by the roadside within few miles
from friends. When the survivors en-
tered the French lines, French soldiers
who were hardened war heroes were
horrifed to see men in such plight. 1t
Is not doubted that this suffering was
Intentionally Imposed upon the British.
Prisoners of other nationalities are
agreed that the British were treated
worse than the others at all German
camps"
A further report of Sir Robert Youn-
gers committee dealing with the treat
ment of British prisoners in the coal
and salt mines of Germany gives har-
rowing details of brutal treatment by

that, had such spokesman been

President Wilson agrees with Lord

ment that the Allies have no desire to

can grocer has gladly shouldered-
Many stores are already displaying
their Food Administration wheat saw
Ing pledge cards, that they have sign
ed, agreeing to carry out b new
wheat program.
Each -four customer Is now reQuir-
ed to buy one pound Of cereal substi-
tute for every pound Of wheat -four.
The substitute may be Of one kind or
assorted. This $3.50 sale Is made by
weight and not by value Of the COM
modities. There is, Of course, no reg
ulation demanding the consumer to
buy wheat -four at all.
A wide variety Of substitutes has
been provided: Cornmeal, corn -four,
edible cornstarch, hominy, corn grits,
barley -four, potato -four, sweet potato
flour, soya bean -four, Feterita -four
and meals, rice, rice -four, oatmeal.
rolled oats and buckwheat -four.
Graham and whole wheat -four con-
stitute an exception to the national
regulation. Either Of these commodi-
ties may be sold at the ratio Of three
pounds to five pounds of wheat flour
that is, FIVE pounds of graham or
wheat -four counts the same as three
pounds of the usual wheat -four.
Mixed f1Ours form another excep-
ton. Where any -four contains so
per cent. or less of wheat 1t may be
sold without any substitutes. Where
the -four is mixed at the rate of 60
per cent. wheat and 40 per cent. of
other ingredients an additional 20 per
cent. of substitutes must be purchased
by the consumer.
Where necessity is shown specially
prepared infants and invalid's food
containing -four may be sold.
That the approved substitutes may
be assorted is a fact many grocers
and housewives overlooked for a time.
For instance. II a customer wishes to
buy a "a pound sack of -four the nee
essary substitutes might be assorted
as follows: Cornmeal, s pounds; corn
grits, 4 pounds rice, 4 pounds; buck.
wheat, 2 pounds; cornstarch, l pound !;
hominy, 2 pounds; rolled oats, 3
pounds.
None of the substitutes should be
considered as q waste purchase.
There are many household uses for
each. The eight pounds Of cornmeaI
can be made into cornbread, corr muf.
fins or used in the baking Of wheat
bread.
C~Ornstarch is useful In making Gus.
tard, ~thlckening gravy or may be used
In cake baking. Corn grits fried like
mush forms a delicious dish, or It may
be used in baking corn bread. Rolled
oats are used largely as breakfast por.
ridge or In oatmeal cookies or In
making mullins.
Buckwheat flour may be used In
bread making, forming an excellent
substitute for one-Quarter Of the
wheat -four, but IL especially choice In
the form OF buckwheat cakes for
breakfast.
With IL wheatless meals needed
each week In America to provide
enough wheat for the allies, the Food
Administration believes the substitutes
will all be used to advantage.
