C0RNSYRUP FOR
CANNING PURPOSES

Washington, July 13.-Corn syrup
may be used in canning and in MAX
ing jellies, jams and marmalades and
fruit buffers, according to specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Varying amounts of
corn syrup are used with sugar. The
syrup gives modified flavor to prod
ucts so it should be tried out in small
quantities at first to suit the family
taste. 1t combines most satisfactor-

pineapple and cherries. The amount
used must be determined by the kind
of fruit and the strength of the syrup.

APPEAL
FOR TALk[ESS SESSION
MEETS OPPOSITION
Stirs Up Artillery In Camp
of Advocates of War
Cabinet and Other Bills

Washington, Feb 2.-President vii
son IS appeal for a "talkless congress
met with sharp opposition today. II
appeared possible that instead OF
quieting the drumfire in some quar-
ters for the "war cabinet'' bill, the
president may have stirred up the
artillery.
Senator Hitchcock, democrat, Ne.
braska, and Senator Wadsworth, repub
lican, New York, members of the mill
tary committee, were prepared to
loose their bombardment Monday and
Tuesday, respectively in spite of the
president s attitude. Senator Weeks.
republican, Massachusetts, also may
speak later.
"It's a case like that of the ancient
gentleman who commanded the tide to
recede," declared Senator Hitchcock,
"We have been getting increasing evi.
dences even during past few days of
the lack of coordination and central
responsibility in the war department
and we propose to present these as
well as the mass of others to the sen
ate."
Senator Chamberlain, director gen
eral of attack, declined to discuss the
president order to administrator
senators.
He declared that the military affairs
committee would continue its investi.
CATION, however
The war cabinet measure will not be
voted on in committee for several days,
it was indicated.
"After hearing the evidence of the
last few days, one could hardly say
that the bill was losing any ground, :"
declared Chamberlain.
The committee today resumed its
hearings with Howard Coffin, head Of
the aircraft production board, before
it. Coffin was to be questioned as to
the shortage of spruce which, it was
declared, was materially interfering
with the aviation program.
Next week the committee will take
up the subject Of army cantonments.
This will complete the investigation, il
was declared. The railroad control bill,
radically changed in two particulars
from that submitted by the admins
tration, will be reported to the senate
early next week by the interstate com
merce committee. Its presentation to
the house probably will be delayed
another week.
Early agreement of the measure was
forecast by the compromise on the two
vital points-the period of control and
the rste making power-whieh was
reached only after a subcommittee had
been CALLER upon.
This compromise, which received a
two-thirds vote in committee, limits
the period of control to IS months
after the war and vests the rate fixing
power in the president, with the inter
state commerce commission, which,
after hearing, may set aside the rate
orders, from the chief executive.

JOHN |. sullivan DEAD
FROM SUDDEN STROKE
HEART DISEASE TODAY
Famous Ring Hero, Once
Greatest Fighter In World,
Gees Without Warning

Arlington, Mass, Feb. 2.-John L.
Sullivan, Tormer heavyweight cham
pion of the world, dropped dead in
his home here today.N
Sullivan, in his Goth year, was one
of the most picturesque figures in the
history of pugilism. His death is the
third of Importance in pugilistic cir
cles within short time. Les Darcy
land Bob Fitzsimmons, the best boxers
ever sent to this country from Aus
tralia, died recently within a short
time of each other.
Sullivan was the first of the Ameri-
can world s heavyweight champions,
taking his title in Mississippi through
a victory over Jake Kilrain, winning
"a belt emblematic of the champion
ship.
Sullivan was married twice, his see
ond wife being taken in Boston, Feb
ruary s, 1910. She was Miss Kate Har-
kins of Roxbury, Mass, sweetheart
of his youth. His first wife was Miss
Annie Bates of Centerville, r. /. He
obtained a divorce from her in Chi
cago in 1908. They had lived together
only Is months of the 26 years they
had been married
Sullivan s claim to a world S cham
pionship always has been a subject of
much dispute, but he gained general
recognition by his defeat of Kilrain,
after first winning decisively over
Paddy Ryan, who claimed the Ameri
can championship. When James Cor
'bett defeated Sullivan the title still
was in some doubt, but Sullivan $
claim to have held the world S title
was strengthened when Bob Fitzsim-
mons was acclaimed champion, with
no disputes, when he won from Cor
bett.

Government Asks Cons. ess to
Pass Drastic Food Con-
troll Measure
FOOD PRICE ADVANCE
HAS BEEN UNREASONABLE
Retail PrO6teering Said To Be
Responsible For High
Cost Of Living

Washington, Feb. g. The govern
ment plans to strike directly at high re-
tail prices if congress will pass the
drastic food bill soon to be introduced
in congress.
Following labor bureau statistics to-
day, showing living costs from fifty to
seventy five per cent higher than when
the war broke out, it was learned the
new administration bill asks plenary
powers to fix prices on whatever
products are deemed necessary. 1t
promises direct relief to the farmer
,'who has complained that fixing prices
on wheat has wrought injustice in that
other products for which he has had to
pay more than eveT-farm implements
sncluded-have not been affected.
The measure, provisions of which
have been kept carefully secret, is
aimed at retailers-the food admins.

end fairly well in hand through its gen.
eral licensing system, it is officially
stated.
AT the same time, where it is neces.
Sary to guarantee producers fixed

ministration would be empowered TO es
tablish original prices.
Power to fix prices on agricultural
implements and other commodities
necessary to food production and dis.
tributi5n also was deemed certain to be
embodied in the measure.
Leather is considered sure to be one
of the by-prOducts brought under price
control.

The new bill-drawn after weeks of
consultation between food administra.

ident Wilson and members of congress

Representative Lever within a few
days, it is expected.
Violent opposition already has shown
itself in both houses and administra.
tion leaders, it is believed, have so far
delayed "springing" the measure until
they round up support.

Strikers Ordered to Return

Military Punishment
CIVIL AUTHORITIES
NO LONGER in POWER
Starvation Is Also Potent
Weapon In Bringing Dissat-
is6ed People to Terms

Amsterdam, Feb. Germany IS mil
itary machine is in complete control in
Berlin today.
Imperial Chancellor Hertling is pow
erless to invoke civlI processes. NUM-
tions factories are under martial.
Thousands of strikers are feeling the
weight of the military power Is attempt
to crush the great general strike thru
hunger and threat to shoot down any
who resist.
Independent socialists are organizing
a national protest against the arrest of
Herr Dittmann, independent socialist
and member of the reichstag.
This news came from Amsterdam to-
day in dispatches from the German cap
ital. Meanwhile Berlin isued semi
official statement declaring that strike
outbreaks had been reduced to scatter
ing disturbances and intimating that
the crisis had passed.
Chancellor Hertling admitted his lack
of power to interfere with the mailed
fist in Berlin when he informed Herr
Haase, independent socialist reichstag
leader, that he could not secure the re-
lease of Dittmann after the military had
seized him.
The order reducing rations to strikers
is in effect today This means hunger
to thousands.
Citizens are forbidden to assemble in
public meetings or join street crowds un-
der threat of being shot.
Martial law was proclaimed formally
in Berlin, the proclamation being read
in the schlossplatz, following the roll
ing of drums Extraordinary court-mar-
tial was announced.
The strike in Lemburg was reported
to be growing.
The Frankfurter Zeitung demands
that the government find some solution
to end the strike.
During a riot Thursday at Spandau,
railroad running to factory was
cut by strikers.
A policeman was dragged from his
horse there and badly beaten, accord

Unions Short of Funds.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Shortage of
funds and the heavy hand of the Teu-
ton government on supplies will serve
to block a general ana effective strike
movement in Germany, government of
ficials believed today.
Only desperation stirred by hunger
and a widespread spirit of revolution
will bring about sufficient chaos in the
kaisers empire seriously to affect the
war, it is now believed.
Long years of domination by military
rule will serve to subdue the public
mind now, it is felt, but nevertheless
this government is watching closely the
outcome Of the " showdown" between
German labor and the military leaders.
Through the closely censored dis
patches-amd the lid has again been
shut down tighter on news out Of Ger
many-officials sought to learn wheth-
er the strikes reported sweeping the
great industrial eenters of the kaiser s
empire have been subdued as expected
by the Teuton mailed fist.
No hone is held here for a German
revolution now. 1t is regarded as pos
sible, however, that the increasing bold
ness Of the socialists and workers may
lead to graver events for the kaiser.
Meantime the situation in Austria,
blanketed by censorship, may be serious,
officials believe. BY aeroplane ana
other means this government is dlstrlD-
uting news of German developments
over the Austrian lines. The real SIT
uation, however, may not be fully known
until the war is over.
