U-B0ATS USE OIL CAMOUFLAGE
Submarine Commanders Try q New
Trick, but Twas Quickly
Found Out.

London. - Tricky German U-boat
commanders have conceived new plan
designated to deceive crews of the al
lied submarine destroyers In the game
Of hide and seek In European waters.
When depth bomb is discharged and
does not cripple or destroy the Ger
man undersea boat, as sometimes hap
pens, a quantity of oil is released by
some device of the submersible and
quickly rises TO the waters surface.
The hope of the German U-boat cap
tain is that the commander Of the de-
stroyer will see the oil. believe that the
submarine has been wrecked and drop
no more depth charges. Meantime, the
German Is endeavoring to escape.
American and British commanders of
destroyers and submarine chasers dis
covered the scheme of the Germans
some time ago and since then have
been dropping depth bombs in greater
numbers than previously, using the oil
as guide to the general location OF
their target. "Oil camoufage" the
American and British navy men call
this latest German submarine trick.

ever. owing to the large failure of the
1917 wheat crop, we had available

These figures. however, do not fully
convey the volume OF the effort and
sacrifice made during the past year
by the whole American people. De-
spite the magnificent effort of our
agricultural population in planting a
much increased acreage in 1917, not
only was there very large failure in
wheat but Also the corn failed to
mature properly and our corn is our
dominant crop We calculate that
the total nutrdtonal production OF the
country for the fiscal year just closed
was between 7 per cent and per
cent below the average OF the three
previous years. our nutritional surplus

America Deeper In This War
Than Any Other Nation
BY President Ray Lyman Wilbur,
Of Stanford University.

We must realize that we are
deeper in this war than any other
nation, for we have said, through
our President, that our peace is to
be with the German people. not
with the Hohenzollern. We have
then the problem OF providing the
additional offensive strength need
ed to defeat the greatest war lord
In history with millions of trained
veterans under his control. To do
this, we must see the issues clear
ly and back up those at the front
by our actions each hour OF each
day. The morale of the fighting
armies will settle this war. We
must see that the morale Of our
men and that OF those who fight
with us is kept at high tide. We
can do SO IL they can feel our sup
port all OF the time.
Now is the great opportunity OF
the American people to demon
strate that our form OF govern
ment is a success. II we do not
all of us. at once, voluntarily and
willingly get behind those who
fight and die for US. In every phase
of our life. and now particularly
realize that food is powder to win
the war. then we are going to fail
In this. our immediate pressing
duty, and be a despised and hum
Hated nation. We must be a great
united democracy lighting our way
forward toward final victory.
There can be but one outcome Of
this war and we must steel our
selves for any misfortune. for any
reverse, with our minds united and
fixed upon the idea OF . inal VIC
tory.

One Year of Food Administration


The Food Administration by per-
mission of the White House makes
public the following letter, written by
Mr.. Hoover to the President:
IL July, 1918.
Dear Mr.. President:
1t Is now possible to summarize the
shipments of foodstuffs from the
United States to the Allied countries
during the fiscal year just closed
practically the last harvest year.
These amounts include all shipments
TO Allied countries for their and our
armies, the civilian population, the
Belgian Relief and Red Cross. The
figures indicate the measure OF effort
of the American people in support OF
Allied food supplies.
The total value OF these food ship
ments which were In the main pur-
chased through, or with the collabora-
ton Of, the Food Administration,
amount to. roundly, 81 400. 00o. 900 dur
ing the fiscal year
The shipments of meats and fats
(includes meat products, dairy pro.
ducts, vegetable oils, etc., TO Allied
destinations were as follows:
Fiscal year
1857 ......... .2.l66. 100000 lbs.
Fiscal year
1878 ......... BOIL, 100000 lbs.
Increase ....... $4,000, 900 lbs.
Meat Exports
Our slaughterable animals at the
beginning OF the last fiscal year were
not appreciably larger than the year
before and particularly in hogs; they
were probably less. The increase in
shipments is due to conservation and
the extra weight of animals added by
our farmers. The full effect of these
efforts began to bear their best re-
suits in the last half of the fiscalsyear
when the exports to the Allies were
2,133, A0, 900 pounds, as against T.
266,500,000 pounds in the same period
of the year before This compares
with an average OF sol 100000 pounds
OF total exports for the same half
years in the three-year pre-war period.
In cereal and cereal products re-
duced to terms of cereal bushels, our
shipments to Allied destinations have
been

Mdddmc PetrOva WW Be Seen ct Coliseum This Week.

Mme Petrova, the Russian ac- tress who is starring in "The Un- dying Flame" at the Coliseum Tues day and Wednesday, is one of the most talented actresses on the screen and has an enviable interna tional reputation on both screen and stage. The fact that she is appear ing in pictures produced by the Jesse l.. Lasky Company for Para mount, recalls the fact that it was MT Lasky who first introduced this great actress to America. A few years ago. while MT. Lasky was making his customary trip to Flu rope in search of new talent for his "Folies Bergeres," he heard of remarkable young girl at the Tiv- ol in London who had created a sensation by her singing. He at tended the performance, was greatly impressed and proceeded to nego- tiate for contract with her to make her American debut under his management. Mime. Petrova proved to be a phenomenal success in the "Folies" and later went into vaude- vile and also appeared in the se- rious drama.
