ing sight awaits any one who is allowed

U-boat that comes to the surface. The

Another interesting feature of the war
against submarines is the use Of decoy
ships, sometimes called mystery ships"

TTis remarkable fact that the United
States lost hardly soldier through
4 the German U-boats in transporting
over 1000, 600 men across the Atlantic
Ocean. One transport lost, the Tusca-
MIA, was a British ship carrying few
American soldiers. Three of our trans
ports, almost empty, were torpedoed re-
turning to America, and few were lost.
In no case, up to that time, had the Hun
pirates secured any victims they would
have especially planned to get.
This splendid result was achieved in
face of a feet of German submarines
which had at one time destroyed as much
as 100000 tons of allied shipping in a

The value of our protective measures
has even been admitted by the leading
German naval critic, the notorious Cap

GRAINS

CHICAGO, May 23.-Reports- Shat the amount of replanting necessary this year was under the normal did a good deal today to put the corn market on the downgrade. Prices closed heavy, 115 to 314 off with June l37 and July l3S7s to 40, the lowest fieures this season for each delivery. OSts declined $ to ? and provisions F to 5 cents.
 Corn ranged downward almost the entire day but especially during the last hour. Current advices indicated that seed was germinating better than had been expected. Bearish sentiment developed also from the prospect that the movement of corn after planting IS finished would be large.
 Oats weakened owing largely to the outlook For increased receipts as soon as corn planting is out of the way Exporters took 10AeO0 bushels but later withdrew entirely from the mar ket
 Provisions gave way with grain and hogs. At times. business was nearly at a standstill.

SPOKANE, June 1.-Rigorus con-
servation of wheat and wheat flour
Oh the part of the American people
is absolutely necessary if food ship
ments are to be made to the Amer
lean fighters overseas and the peo-
pie of the allied nations, according
to telegram from Herbert Hoover
to Charles Hebberd, Food Admin
istrator for Washington. Mr..
Hoover's wire is as follows:
"Recent press dispatches, widely
circulated through the country have
given the wholly false impression
that there is no longer need for
rigorous conservation of wheat and
flour. The Food Administration
declares that every aspect of the
wheat situation both present and
prospective intensifies the need for
the greatest possible limitation in
the American consumption of wheat
and wheat products. If present re-
strictions should be in the slightest
degree relaxed it would result in
serious want for the people of Eu-
rope before the new crop can reach
he market.
"The Food Administration esti-
mate of the position on June l in
dicates total available supply I'M
til the new harvest including the
grain which will be available from
the farms in country and terminal
elevators and mill elevators of about
56,000,000 bushels. Of this 100000
900 bushels must be exported before
new wheat is available for export,
if we are to maintain the absolutely
necessary shipments to our army
and the allies. That leaves about
10000 900 bushels for domestic COM
sumption for the next two months.
Normal American consumption is
something over 10000 900 bushels a
month, so that the most liberal con-
sumption at home would be only
one-third of normal.
an addition to the wheat on the
farms and in elevators, there is al
ways an indeterminate further
amount in transit and in dealers
