L
Won Renown in Libya.
During the Libyan campaign he
served in the field as colonel of the
93d Regiment Of Infantry. 1t was at
| the first battle of Zanzur (June 8.
| 1922. that he proved his quality as q
commander Of sharp decision. The
sailed by the fanatical Arabs in six
successive waves and the troops were
| in imminent danger of giving way. It
was then that Col. Diaz, posted on the
left with his regiment. delivered an
impetuous bayonet charge upon the
right flank of the enemy, throwing
him into confusion and carrying the
day for the Italians. Col. Diaz was
also present at the second battle of
Zanzur. 1t was these two great ac-
tions. the most important of the Lib
yam war. that decided the issue and
after the second victory peace was
signed by Turkey within a month.
At the beginning Of the present war
operations at the supreme command
He showed himself such an excel
lent organizer. with SO much direct
Ing genius, that he was naturally in
line for the chief commandership
| when the disaster in the mountains
necessitated a change of leaders.
Fought Way Across the carso.
Before this, however. he held COM
mand of the 18th Army Corps of the
Sd Army, including the famous bri-
gade of Grenadier Guards and the
Lario Brigade, which so distinguished
themselves on the Carso. The Carso is
high and desolate plateau between
Gorilla and the Adriatic sea. By the
| middle of last summer the Italians
| under Gen. Diaz had forced their lines
half way across 1t in the direction of
Trieste. The fighting became very
| fierce at the little village of Selo and
at theDosso Faiti. strong position
| which formed bastion for the Aus
trian right flank. But Diaz's men in
repeated and ferocious driver took
both places. They were holding them
, when the detection OF a part of the
End Army far to the north Of them
forced a retreat of the whole line
right back and down to the plains of
Venetia.
Gen. Diaz is described as extremely
likeable by all who know him. He Is
somewhat under medium height and
rather dark, with black hair and
cropped mustache, now turning to
gray. He is a constant smoker. but
his manner strikes the observer as
calm and ever contemplative, except
when he is issuing orders. when he
becomes most incisive and direct.
However. he is not a great talker and
is known as a man of few words. and
those concise and meaty. His brain
seems to be both analytic and syn
thetic, for he not only knows how to
pIan with the greatest elaboration, but
has the faculty of getting his orders
executed at once. and down to the last
detail. Like Generalissimo Foch. he
believes firmly in the offensive. and
holds that no army which Is not ag-
pressiye at the right moment can
hope to win.
Since the battle Of the Piave Gen.
Diaz has already been advanced sew
enty numbers. However. 1t is almost
certain that he will be raised from
agenerale d'esereito." There are at
present only two men In Italy holding
that rank. One Is the king and the
other is Gen. Caneva. who commanded
the italian armies during the Libyan
war.

MUST BUILD FOOD RESERVE
Mr.. Hoover Points Out Necessity Of
Continuing Our Conservation Of
Food After Harvest
BY HERBERT HOOVER.

AT a meeting of the federal food
administrators in Washington, repre-
senting all 4S states, it was the unani-
nous view that even il the harvest
does prove abundant 1t will be the
first duty of the American people -
place every grain they can save into
storage as against possible bad years
ahead In consequence there should be
no anticipation Of unlimited wheat
bread until the war Is over.
Some of the most inconvenient re-
strictions can no doubt he modified
with the arrival Of large harvest, but
II we are honest with ourselves we will
maintain restrictions. requiring the use
of some substitutes both domestic and
commercial; we will continue the re-
quirements of high milling extraction
and the elimination of the nonessentiaI
use Of and waste In flour and bread.
1T Is worth remembering that the
famine in Egypt 5000 years ago was
stayed by governmental foresight and
it does not require any illuminating
dream to anticipate that SO long as
the war lasts, with its increasing
drafts for soldiers and munition work
ers, the world will steadily produce
less food. II we are wise great har-
vest will mean the willing building up
Of great national reserves"

Serious Problem Of
Beef Supply Must
Be Solved Soon

Washington, June S.--with the pop
ulation OF the world increasing faster
than the growth in the meat supply.
government experts foresee a serious
problem to be solved in the not far
distant future. 81
The situation in the United States
has reached an interesting stage.
Within the last ten years, the popula-
ton has increased about IS per cent
while the herds Of the nation which
brought the meat industry to it's
present high development have de-
clined 20 per cent. In Europe tho
condition Is even more serious because
Of depletion due to the war. Australia
and New Zealand continue to produce
great quantities of meat, but the dis
lance to the congested center of pop
ulation adds much to the expense or
marketing. South Americas vast fields
and splendid herbage. therefore, are
being looked to as the source of sup
ply, now as well as after the war.
Argentina is today the most import
ant beef producing country in the
world, according to a review of meat
packing in South America by the
Latin American division Of the bureau
Of foreign and domestic commerce.
Uruguay also is becoming center. OF
the industry and Brazil, Paraguay,
Colombia and Venezuela to a less ex-
tent. Out Of a total of 1854 tons OF
beef. mutton and lamb produced in
1916 Argentina produced 4S6,4o5 tons,
New Zealand and Australia 262,176
tons, the United States so,522 tons,
Uruguay 43, 1876 tons, Brazil 1851 tons.
Canada 21.723 tons and other countries

OUR RATION OF BEEF
IS CUT WAY DOWN
We Can Eat Only a Pound and a
Quarter a Week Until
September IS.
BY HERBERT HOOVER.


The demands for beef for our army
and the allied armies and their civil
populations for this summer are be-
yond our present surplus. On the 9th
er hand, we have enough increased sup
ply of pork this summer to permit eco
nomicaf expansion in its Use. 1t will
therefore be direct service to our
army and the allies If our people
would. in some degree, substitute fresh
pork, bacon, hams and sausages for
beef products.
We request all hotels and restau.
rants not to place on their menus or
serve boiled beef more than two meals
weekly, beefsteak more than one meal
weekly, and roast beef more than one
meal weekly.
We ask househoders not under any
circumstances TO buy more than one
and one-Quarter pounds Of clear beef
weekly, or one and one>half pounds,
including the bone, per person in the
household.
The public will realize that the
season to season. the changing situa.
ton in shipping. and therefore Of the
markets available to the allies. and
the increasing demands for our grow
Ing army, with the fluctuating supply
Of local beef in France, all make 1t
impossible to determine policies for
long periods In advance.
We have recently asked for economy
In all meat consumption. We wish
now to emphasize further reduction
Of beef, etc. 1t is anticipated that 1t
will hold good until September 18th;
1918. and the cooperation of the public
Is most earnestly requested.

WHEAT Is NOT AN ESSENTIAL
State Medical Secretary Issues 4 State.
ment for the Food Admin
istration.

DR.. Guilford II. Sumner. secretary OF
the Iowa department of health and
medical examiner Of the state, agrees
with the other health experts who
have assured Herbert Hoover and
Food Administrator Deems of Iowa
that wheat -four is not essential to the
diet in order to preserve health and
maintain strength. In a statement is
sued recently Doctor Sumner said, in
part:
Wheat is not the most nutritious
substance which can be obtained, and
any of the cereals such as oatmeal
barley and rye may be substituted. In
animals, as, for instance, in the horse,
the same facts may be observed: The
English race horses, well fed with oats,
present contrast to the puny Hun
garian farm horses fed principally with
hay.
The people of this country have
learned to live upon fine -four, and !
have noted this for some time, that
some of the elements which are very
nutritious are taken away from the
wheat and the amount OF nutrition
given is not what might be expected
or what we ought to have.
II believe that we could eat large
quantities of rice as substitute for
wheat.
Il might say in this connection that
1t would be well to advise the use of
milk, cottage cheese, for the dairy
products are natural food elements
and can be relied upon for human sus-
tenance; therefore, allow me to state
that the people Of the United States
could live year If necessary without
wheat entirely"

the deferred months. Several setbacks
occurred. but this was followed by rail-
Ees and a finish at the top figure for

was depressed by ruling OF the
coarse grain administrator that un-
licensed trades can not accept deliv-
cries Of cash grain on contracts for Hut-

were satisfactory altho the government
weekly report showed that frost dam
age IN northern Ohio and Indiana low
