World Food Demand Increased.

The end Of the war will create an
enormously increased demand for food.
Humanity demands that the starving

sion shall have sufficient supplies to
assure their return to health and pros
perity. If these liberated nations are
faced with starvation they cannot es-
tablish orderly governments. Hunger
breeds anarchy In people The war

lea must continue its work to liberia

In order to meet this new situation
the Food Administration has made a
careful survey of the food resources of
the whole world In relation 10 the to-
tai demands. Computing supplies on
the basis of the avoidance of waste
and war consumption, II Is found that
wheat and rye may be obtained In suf-
iCient quantities to meet economical
world consumption high protein feed

OF about 1900 600 tons, while there

German procedure in the so called ne- gotiat1Jns with Russia and the light they have thrown upon the minds and methods of Germany's present rulers There rarely has been a more 1nstruc- tive contrast between pretention and intention"
 Referring to the speech of Imperial Chancellor Won Hertling, Mir. Asquith said:
 A Equalization, Not Peace.
 ''The very moment he was making his address his subordinates were writing terms, not of peace. but of capitulation as harsh and humiliating as could be found in the annals of history. Districts on the Black Sea and in the Caucasus were to be hand ed back to share with Armenia the horrors and desolation of Turkish rule. Could anyone doubt after that the state of Belgium if Germany was ever able to dictate to the western powers af- ter the pattern set at I3rest I4itovsk. ''It is not by such roads that clean peace is attainabie. The so-calied treaty of Brest Litovsk was every thing that an international compact having must be peace, not of rulers or parliaments, but of peoples. "One thing seems to be of para mount importance in the worlds best interest and that is that the people with whom in the long run the issue rests should be brought to understand 1 that, so far as the allies are concern 1 ed. we have but one governing and to which everything else is subordinate
 namely, to build upon that foundation the fabric of the future world"

Washington, Mar. S.-Issuance of daily lists of casualties among the ex- 2editionary forces abroad vas discon- tinued today by the public information committee as the result of an order of the war department under which the names of next of kin and emergency addresses of soldiers whose names ap- pear on the lists hereafter will be withheld. The ofHcial explana ton is that the purpose of the order is to keep information of value from the en. emy
 On being informed of the order the committee took the position that long lists of men killed or wounded would be worthless to the newspaper cores pondents without the addresses, and notice was issued advising the press that in the future all information re- gardins casualties must be obtained from the war department At the ad. jutant generals office, it was stated that the listswitfout addresses wouid ee continued to be sent to the commit: tee and would be available there. .

SHORTAGE OF cAuLKERs
 DELAYS WOODEN SHIPS

Washington, March 8. Wooden ships on the ways in the Puget Sound district, almost ready to launch in the race for tonnage to defeat the sup- marines, are being held up by short age of caulkers, which officials of the shipping board said today was due to the refusal of two unions to cooper ate.
 The caulkers union and the brother hood of carpenters have been inform ed of the situation but without result. Immediate action is declared neces- sary to prevent tieup of the Pacific coast programme, and there were ir,- ] timations tonight that the shipping
 board is prepared for some drastic step if all other means fail
 William l.. Hutcheson, president of the carpenters, was told of the need for caulkers and his attention called l to the unreserved assistance being
 given by other shipbuilding unions to
 the nation during the war. Iutche son, officials say, replied that his. tor-
 sanization had listed thousands o1
 trained cal1kers, whom he would be glad to mobilize for the nations work
 # the chipping board granted his re-
 quest for special representation of the
 carpenters on the wage adjustment
 board.
 The caulkers union of Seattle whiel controls caulkers ir t]ie Puget Sound district, is saiG to have refused ap. prentices permission to work witt
 them in order to learn the trade. al though the union has only 1S5 mem lbers and at least 600 are necessary t,
