THE CHANNEL TUNNEL
 V, SHOULD BE BUILT NOW
Major General Greene in the July
 Review

Major General Greene in the July
 Review.
 Is not now the time to begin the construction of the Channel tunnel? Had it been begun when applied for in 1907, it would have been in oper- Ation throughout the war. Had it been begun when permission was again applied for in 1913, it would now be in operation and would be one of the greatest single factors in winning the war. The British Ad- miralty more than a year ago stated that 6,oO0,000 soldiers had been car ried back and forth across the Cham mel; and M. Sartiaux says that the total number of passengers across the Channel since the outbreak o6 the war exceeds 20,OOO,OOO. The animals, vehicles, munitions, supplies of all kinds are counted by the millions of tons. The amount is not beyond the capacity of the tunnel; but it re- quires the use of probably 1,5O0, 900 tons of shipping-at time when there is that civilization may be lost for lack of ships. Who shall gay Cow long the war will last? Few If any well-informed men expect its end in less than two years. Germany is financially bankrupt, but econom- ically. self-supporting. especially since acquiring an unlimited supply of pe- troleuma at Baku; and Germany is now, as she was over a year ago -fI--.iked but not defeated" It $ quite conceivable that the war may last many more than two years. By employing modern methods, the tun- nel may possibly be built in less than three years. It might perhaps be finished in time to be a large factor In winning the war. But even if not 1t can certainly be built in time to be Q most important element in rebuild ing the world after the war. Int need for ships will continue long af > ter peace has been concluded, and i will be many years before the losse by submarines have been replaced During that time the tunnel will SC free 1,50O ,00O tons of shipping

REAL ALSATIAN
 OBJECTS AGAINST
 JOINING THE HUNS

French Front, June 21.+In nearly every newspaper printed in Germany at the present moment there is pre- sented some kind of a scheme for the solution of the question of Alsace- Lorraine. What the Germans cannot understand is the fact virtually ev- cry real Alsatian and Lorrain rejects in totality any scheme for joining his native land either to the German Elm pire or any of it's component federal States.
 The latest method of disposing of the two provinces discussed in the German Imperial Parliament proposes their division between Prussia and Bavaria, Lorraine to be taken by the former and Alsace by the latter. This

FOOD ADMINISTRATOR
CONSIDERS REQUESTS
Requests of Farmers of Inland En-
pire That Mills BE Not Shut
Down to BE Investigated

Answering the appeals from east
ern Washington that there is a short
age of mill feed, Herbert Hoover
wired Charles Hebberd, federal food
administrator for Washington, that
action would be taken to consider
what was best to be done. 1t is evil
IDENTIFY a national situation. Mr.
Hoover wires:
In regard to your wire in refer
ence to mill feed, will say the situa-
ton is simply that with last years
short crop of wheat we have a short
age of mill feed in the country, and
the problem arises whether or not
certain localities should have unlim-
tied feed and other dairy localities
go entirely without; or whether we
shall attempt as at present to equal
ize the distribution to all localities.
ITO get the views of the entire
country on the problem we have sum-
moned a meeting of the subcommit-
tee on dairying of the agricultural
advisory board, of which Mr.. Camp
bell, president of the National Milk
Producers federation, is a member.
to advise us as to the best course to
pursue.
Equally with your pressure we
are receiving demands from other To-
calities that mill feeds themselves or
that wheat should be transported and
milled at such localities as will sup
ply them.
I'VE trust that you will bear in
mind the fact that there is no rem
edy for short crop. Also that the
arrival of the new and abundant
wheat harvest will soon solve the
mill feed question, and that there
fore the period of difficulty will not
be prolonged"
The feed situation has become
acute in this state, owing to the fact
that this section does not produce
the coarse grains for feed that are
used in eastern states. The oat crop
largely used for feed here, was alsC
short last season. 1t was stated t.
the food administrator recently tina
wheat had to be used for food.
Mr.. Hebberd states that the mill,
of Washington, Idaho and Oregon
were allowed the last season to mil
10 per cent of their pre-war capac
ity, while many other sections haC
as low as so and 60 per cent. Will,
many of the mills in this state hav,
closed down, having ground their al
lotment, Mr.. Hebberd said that Their
was still about 100000 bushels o
wheat held by the smaller mills, an,
there would be some milling done
and the situation would not be alarm
ing during June.
