CORN WILL WIN
DEMOCRACY'SWAR
Americas Greatest Cereal Crop
Is Now Moving to
Market.
MAlMSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS.
Surplus Wheat Of the United States
Has Been Sent to Famine Threat
ened Europe.
MAlNSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS.

Americas great corn crop, exceed
ing 5000, 900, 900 bushels, will save the
worlds food situation, officials of the
United States food administration be-
lieve.
Corn Is the nations best food cereal,
housewives are beginning to realize.
It contains all the elements needed to
keep the body in state of health and
when used according to the scores Of
tried recipes, especially when COM
bined with an added portion of oil or
fat, will sustain life indefinitely. In
dian warriors in colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at a
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration Of.
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
Is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 80
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five BUSH
els than in former years.
Corn has become the nations main
stay in the crisis of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
: many occasions, just as it served as
staple food during the War Of the Rev
olution and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come to the front In
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
ed use in the making Of ordinary white
| bread. Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
-four to make leavened bread. This
kind of mixture is worked and baked
In the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread-using corn meal entire
ly-is gaining greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound Of
wheat saved in America means a pound
Of wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America is associ-
ated in the war;
There are a score of corn products
that today possess unusual Importance
l for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes
and for use in the kitchen instead of
graduated sugar is one of the leading
products made from corn.
I Corn oil, excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils
Is appearing on the market in large
quantities. 1t comes from the germ OF
l the corn.

SOLDIER SLAYER
SAVED BY WILSON
Insanity Report Sets Aside
Death Penalty Sentence.

Announcement was made in Washing
ton yesterday that President Wilson had
disapproved the sentence of death i'm
posed by court-martial upon Private
Layton James. who confessed to having
shot and killed Mrs, Rose Harrity of
Brooklyn and Private Michael Maloney
at Camp Upton last May. The PresI-
dents disapproval of the sentence was
based upon his agreement with reports
that showed the murderer was insane at
the time the crime was committed.
James. a negro, for several days after
the murder escaped suspicion that he
had been concerned in the staying He
was attached to Company c, 367th In
fantry. On May Mrs Harrity, a
widow and neighbor OF Private Malo-
ney's family. left her home at 80 Fourth
street and went TO Camp Upton to visit
Maloney. They were In small woods to-
ward the edge Of the reservation when
Maloney and the negro became involved
In an alteration. James shot Maloney
and turned his rife upon Mrs. Harrity
when she endeavored 10 aid her escort.
Immediately after the murder James
ran out of the woods, crossed an open
section OF the reservation. and then fell
into the ranks of those running toward
the scene OF the murder. Sentries who
were on duty eventually recalled seeing
a negro known among his fellows as
Oatmeal" run from the woods just after
the shooting. That was James's nick
name in the camp. and few days later
he confessed. James always carried a
Bible with him. and even read 1t while
the police were questioning him about
the Staying.
1t Is understood that the original
court-martial will cause James to be
committed to an institution for the in

AIRPLANE VOLLEY
KILLS ONE AT CAMP
Three Are Hurt as Rain Of
Bullets Sweeps Mills
Drill Ground.

A rain of machine gun fire poured out
OF the clouds above Camp Mills. Il. l..

by the accidental discharge Of the gun
carried by an army biplane In flight. re-
sulting in the death of one private and
wounding of two others and a Lieuten-
ant attached to the 106th Sanitary
Train, which was drawn up IN company
formation on the camp drlll grounds.
DESPITE the suddenness of the dra-
matte foretaste of war to which they
were subjected the soldiers OF the san
itary train displayed not the least ex-
element as their four comrades toppled
out of the line. The airplane could not
be seen but the purr OF its motor was
heard.
Apparently the airplane was travel
ling at tremendous speed, for within a
second or two the camp drill grounds

Flying Wing. but 1t was understood TO
have been pretty well determined by the
investigating officers that the biplane
from which the bullets were fired was re
turning from target practice over the
Atlantic when the gun was either acci-
dentalIy or inadvertently discharged.
Doubt that the bullets came from an
airplane was virtually removed when
II was found that Private William II.
Hall of williamsburg, Ill. had been
killed by a bullet which entered the top
OF his head.
Lieut. Samuel NJ. Lowry of Summit.
Pa was shot in the back but received
only n superficial wound and was dis
charged from the base hospital at Camp

The others injured were Privates Lewis

In the arm and Owens received a wound
similar to that received by Lieut.. Lowry.
Both will recover.
More than a score OF airplanes were fly
ing, some high and some low. over Camp
Mills and the adjacent flying fields when
the accident happened. For some rea-
son, however, officers appeared insistent
the machine from which the bullets were
fred must have been 1000 or more feet
In the air. One theory advanced In eX-
PLANTATION of the accident was that an
airplane engaged in target practice
dipped suddenly. thus un!ntentionally
changing the direction OF the bullets be-
ing despatched from the practice gun.
