TO TAKE UP QUESTION OF
PUBLISHING ADDRESSES

Washington. April 1S.-Secretary
Baker said today the proposal that
the home addresses of the men named
be restored to the casualty lists will
be taken up soon and that the pre-
Nailing opinion of his military ad
visers will determine the decision. He
said the practice of many newspapers
in requesting relatives of soldiers
named in the lists to communicate
their addresses and other data would
have the effect Of destroying the OBJ
ject of the present system. the con-
cealment of important information
from tho enemy.

Won CAPELLE'S FIGURES
GREATLY EXAGGERATED
ACCORDING TO LONDON

London. April 1s-According to n
statement issued officially tonight.
the figures given by Admiral Won Ca
peile in his speech are misleading and
contrary to facts.
Exaggerated figures of losses are
.still relied on by the enemv." saws
the statement. The average Of
monthly losses Of British sbips in
1917 was $4,000 gross tons, whereas
Admiral Won Capelle bases his argu-
ment on over 100000 tons. The fig
uies for the quarter ending the 3lst
of March will be published shortly.
when it will be seen that the claims
made OF continuance Of the drop in
the rate Of losses Is fully justified.
with regard to steel, the First
LORD Of the Admiralty already has
assured the House Of Commensurate
arrangements have been made for a
supply of steel to give the output
aimed at, and ut the present time the
shipyards are in every case fully
supplied with this material"

 TO GOOD START

Indications are that the month of February in the office of Building h. spector H. J. Mann will present a very satisfactory record so far as permits for the erection of new residences are concerned. Already there have been several permits for the construction of residences, the most important of which is that issued to Charles K Pishon for a home of the bungalow type to cost $7,000 to be located at the northeast corner of Portland street and Fifth avenue. Work upon this resi- dence is already under way.
 Other permits issued 50 far this month include:
 A. c. Smith, residence at 1926 North First street, to cost $1 500

ENGLAND PAUPERS
 ONCE REFUSED CORN
(Portland Oregonianl

If we could induce our allies to make corn as common an article of human food as it is in America, there would be small difficulty in feeding them. The corn crop is so abundant that it would be simply a question of providing ships. But in no respect is mankind more averse to inno- vation than in the matter of food. Only by degrees can man be in dueed to accept a new article of diet. Not only must he acquire the taste for it. but he must learn to cook it so as to make it palatable.
 The experiment of introducing corn as human food has already been made in England. and has failed. The board of guardians of Strood, Kent bought $50 worth to be served to the paupers in the worllhouse. but they re- fused to eat it and the board decided to sell it's entire stock. Corn, or maize, as it is called in England, is regarded as fit only for cattle, and when it was offered to the Strood paupers they probably thought they were classed as such. and for that reason indignantly asserted their manhood. If corn on the cob well buttered, had first won favor with the rich, it would probably have been more acceptable to the poor.
