Washington, April S-Unified d.
rection OF all steel deliveries has
been decided on by the war indus
tries board as preventative of flu
ture shortages in shipbuilding or
any. other essential line of work.
Representatives of the. army and
nav who have been stationed at
each mill heretofore to speed the
output of orders for those branches
of the war work, will be withdrawn.
They will be replaced by~a single
representative of the war industries
board, who will be governed by the
requirements division as to prior
titles and will see that deliveries are
made before there is danger Of any
stoppage of work
Chairman Baruch's plan for allo-
eating the steel output was approx
ed today by other government Off
Gals, who expressed the belief that
future difficulties would be elimin-
ated. Chairman Hurley of the ship
ping board said he hoped that in two
weeks time the shortage Of steel
plates at certain ship-building yards
would be over.
Mr.. Hurley conferred with Presi-
dent Wilson in company with Senat-
or Fletcher, who was instructed by
the senate commerce committee yes
terday to tell the president of steel
shortages described by George j.
Baldwin, chairman of the board Of
the American Shipbuilding corpora
ton, which owns the Hog island
yard.
Senator Fletcher said the >presi-
dent showed keen interest in the
shipping situation and expressed
willingness to put into effect any
measures which the committee
might think advisable. He urged
Senator Fletcher to consult Mr..
Baruch. which the senator did af-
ter leaving the White House.
Transportation troubles are be-
lieyed to have been largely to blame
for the steel shortage. 1t was said to-
day thar steel plates can be moved
from Gary. Ind, to the Pacific coast
yards at Seattle quicker than they
can be transported from Pittsburg
to Philadelphia.
The Pacific coast yards have had
little difficulty in obtaining steel, all
the shortages having been reported
on the Atlantic coast. Several yards
were said to have sufficient plates
for two or three months on hand but
were short Of shapes and other
light steel.

.NEW WAYS OF FEEDING THE

For many years an effort has been
made to attract Luther Burbank to
the lecture platform, but the plant
wizard has been so busy with his
scientific work that he has steadfast-
" refused to be inveighed into appear
ing before the public. He has realized
however, that there is a great inter-
est in his work and so he has given
his permission to have his friend and
confident to DR.. Henry A. Adrian OF
Santa Barbara, Cal, appear and tell
the story of the plant wizards ach-
ievements.
DR.. Adrians new lecture upon the
subject, New Ways of Feeding the
World" is a most pertinent contribu-
ton to the Win-The-War,
DR.. Adrian believes that the world
is actually facing starvation. Pro-
paganda. He does not believe, how
ever, that it will starve. His lecture
tells how the new situatio mis- to be
faced and how the battle is to be won.
1t is a tremendously interesting and
informing lecture. He will appear up
on the opening day of the Chautau-
qua.

UNBREAKABLE LAWS

The Fuel Administration has issued statement declaring among
other things that because Of the and the demands that are be-
ing made for various essential products sit obvious that the law
of supply demand has broken down. Last winter when the
demand for coal far exceeded the supply the people OF the country
were pretty firmly of the opinion that the law OF supply and de-
mand was yery much in force notwithstanding the efforts of Mr.
Garfield ignore it, Recently the truck growers OF Southern
community wired Food Administrator Hoover that 800 carloads OF
cabbages were rog fields for of market and asked
him for help He replied that the supply exceeded the demand ana
could suggest remedy The of those eabbages are
doubtless of the opinion that the law of supply and demand still
in force Notwithstanding the effort Of people set aside
ignore The law supply and demand will break down the
same time the law of pravitation does.
