plication for admission to the bar and
that action was to be taken on the
matter Tuesday. Wilkerson sent a

that he could not attend the hearing
Tuesday and asked that it be post
poned until he could be there to pre-
sent his interests. He received 4
message in return that the hearing
would be postponed until Thursday and
he left here Thursday evening TO be
present to resist the application Of the
the attorney general for more time in
the hearing Of Wilkerson's application
for admission to the bar.

SAYS MEREDITH.
UNITED STATES HAS
HUGE TASK AHEAD
Saving Of Wheat One Of Essentials Of
Victory Of Allies-EnsIand Compelled
to Prepare Wounded Men For SerV-
ice at Front-Our Debt Underesti-
mated.

Des Moines, June 15.-'Tt is UP to
you and to me o get into this war 100
ger cent-and We Will have to get into
it 100 per cent If we expect to win it,
said E. T. Meredith at the flag day
dinner of the council of members a,
the chamber os commerce yesterda.'.
1--WE all believe that We are 60
ing to win this war-celt ainly; but
merely believing it is not enough
TO save the lives of our boys-your
sons and mine-over there. Every
one of us must do something def
mite each day in the winning OF
this war or we will loose it, he
continued.
He stated that Great Britain was
strong. but not as strong as the
United States supposed and that
she had been pressed to her limit.
Scotland alone has put 100000 men
into active service which would
mean 200O0,Q00 men if the United
States gave proportiorately: but
America at the present time has no
more men IN France than the an
nual percentage OF its idle labor.
Are we going TO get into this war?
Are we going to make ourselves felt
you and l and the other fellow? Then
now is the time to get into it."
Wounded Must Go Back.
The most pathetic sight in all
England, according to Mr.. Mere
dith. was not the wounded in tho
women bearing the burdens OF the
war, but companies of conyalescent
soldiers drilling in tile cvurtyarCis
of the hospitals, getting ready to
go back to the front line
We have underest!n1ated our
debt to Great Britain-a debt that
we can never pay. They have given
UP everything all except war.
Business has stopped, because there
are 10 materials; factories have
junked their machinery for war
purposes; the men who expected
to have their sons take up their
bushes and carry II on those
sons are dead in France. Yet Britain
is not weary. not discouraged, If only
they can depend upon America. But
without America they would quit
fighting tonight. for they know the
useleesness of further sacrifice I'M
aided
Task Not Realized.
He hesitated that some people said
that the apparent lack Of interest In
this country was due to indiffer-
ence. But America is not tndifer-
ent: We are not Indifferent - it Is
lack Of appreciation, failure TO un-
derstand the magnit ure OF the situa-
ton facing US. He said: People do
not realize that this country will be
at the very least 25,oOo,0oo tons short
of coal this year, or they would not be
put ting off buying their coal now. they
do not realize that we must stop eat
ing wheat so Is to reduce our con-
sumption from 100000 bushels a
MONTH to 100000 month or lose
the war.
THE man who insists that he
must have wheat bread Is lighting

bite chokes him"

dith and told briefly Of some OF
their more striking experiences while
in the allied areas.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT
q /" HELPS PAY FOR BREAD

There has been much mlsunder-
standing about the bread program In
England. II Ia true that the English.
man buys a loaf Of bread for less than
an American Gun. but 1t Is poorer
bread, and the British government is
paying $2OO. OOO.O wv a year toward the
cost of 1t.
All the grain grown in Great Brit
ain Is taken over BY the government
at an arbitrary price and the imported
wheat purchased on the markets at
the prevailing market price. This Is
turned over to the mills by the govern
ment at a price that allows the adult
terated war bread loaf Of four pounds
to sell at Is cents. the two pound loaf
at 9 cents and the n pound loaf at 8
cents.
In France, under conditions some
what similar, but with a larger e3-
traction, the four pound loaf sells for
16 cents.

Martial Music of Yankees Believed to
Have Been Heard by the

American troops have taken up pc
sitions on the French battle front
Under the French high command, il
whom all ranks have supreme conf
dence, the American forces face the
enemy on the line barring the Ger
mans from Paris and Amiens, where
they have been certain number of
days.
The Americans on entering the line
found their positions in a rolling ter
rain. The artillery was the first on the
line, entering on dark night which
was made red by the continuous flashes
of friendly and hostile guns Under a
fire, which in some places was rather
heavy, the American gunners took up
the positions of the French batteries
and completed the work of digging in.
Yankees Face sharpnel Fire.
When the infantry moved in, the
firing was just as intense In some
places our troops after passing through
villages were raked now and then with
sharpnel. In several instances, they
found the trenches shallow, while in
other cases there were no trenches at
all. By this time the positions have
been improved greatly.
1t should be understood that this sec
tor is not especially active in compari-
son with others to the north, although
1t is more active than those the Ameri-
cans previously had faced. The artil-
lery firing is heavy and intermittent,
the German shells viking over the
lines into towns in certain rear areas.
There has not been a raid on either (
side of the line for several days. but
at night the patrols are active, Amer-
cans approaching close to the enemy's :
