WEST POINT CADETS
take TO WAR FLOUR
Coming Generals Are Better for Its
Use. Says Captain.

West Points cadets have set an
example in the conservation of
wheat flour. They are making
bread composed of As per cent
wheat flour. - per cent rye and
10 per cent white bolted grain -four.
Capt. B. A. Dixon. treasurer OF
the United States Military Academy.
says the health of the cadet corps
is better for the use of this bread.
Many Of the cadets consider It su-
pefior to the former product COM
posed entirely of wheat flour.
A great saving has been effected
in the use of fats. Formerly
about $40 pounds OF lard and $50
pounds OF butterine were consumed
by the cadets each month. The use
of these two products has been en-
tirely discontinued. Drippings from
meat fats are used in their place.

FOOD BOARD ORDERS
Canned GOODS SAVED
Hoover Acts to Prevent Shortage in
Supply of Necessities.

Further precautionary measures
against food shortage for government
fighting men were taken by The
United States Food Administration
yesterday when its chief. Herbert
Hoover. issued an order to the can
ming interests OF the country against
the disposition of any products they
may have on hand until such mandate
is rescinded. Goods included are
canned corn, peas, tomatoes, string
beans and salmon.
The order provides that reports of
quantities Of finished material on hand
must be forwarded to the admins
traitor at once. and adds that such
supply uot wanted for government
purposes will be released within a few
days.
1t is said the order came as a result
OF transportation congestion and does
not necessarily mean that there is a
scarcity OF canned goods. The real
object is to ascertain just how much
OF this kind OF foodstuffs actually is
on hand. 1t is barely possible that
there is a surplus supply. inasmuch as
there was an enormous amount of
home canning last year and a conse-
quent lessening of drain on the nor
NAL supply.

AIR MASTERY
RETARDED BY
SHORTAGE
Experts Believe Germany
VIII Keep Even Until Ma
terials Are Available.

There will be no allied air su-
premacy in the next six months.
Despite Americas best efforts, the
most her contribution can effect
will be to maintain a balance OF
air power.
The United States, and all the al
lies. as well as Germany. are con-
tending with a shortage of airplane
material. and Americas shipments
OF planes and motors must wait on
ship production.
This unqualified and authorita-
tive statement, showing that there
can be no great air drive to help
the allies, nor even superiority for
artillery observance. when the ex-
pected German supreme offensive
comes in the Spring. was made last
night by high government of1lclal
familiar with every detail of the
aircraft programme in the United
States.
Famine I'm Spruce.
Germany, he says, will be able to
keep nip-and-tuck with her foes
through her immense conversion OF
ali available industries to airplane
construction, despite greater short
States finds hampering.
The Aircraft Production Board has
been so little able to procure spruce
readily that canvasses have been
made of spruce trees and men sent
to fell them hundreds OF miles from
any finishing mill The trees are
split and roughly dressed where
they are felIed, and then sent to
a mill for proper cutting. The gen.
eraI spruce supply in America is
confined mainly to Oregon and Wash
ington and the southern end Of the
Blue Ridge Mountains.
The ability of Germany to match
the air powers OF all the nations
concentrated against her probably
will be enhanced in the next few
months by the resources of materials
in Russia, so delaying even a little
later the margin Of supremacy the
allies expect after the end OF six
months.
Use Night Planes.
Americas part in achieving that
supremacy. besides her great out
put of Liberty Motors, will be due
in a large measure to her produc-
ton Of huge night bombing planes.
These night bombing planes. some
! Of which already are in use at the
front, are being made considerably
larger than any other planes and
Of very high speed. despite that they
carry hupdreds of pounds Of bombs
and climb to a great height for op-
erations. Their use at night at ex-
treme attitudes Is certain. accord
ing to an Aircraft Board official,
to meet with no adequate defense.
| Gen. Squiers already has asked an
appropriation OF 100000 for aerial
bombs for these planes.
The finished planes, however, will
not be built here; they will be fab
ricated here. parts shipped separate
ly in quantity. and assembled abroad.
This vast assembling organization
\ now Is under way.
