BICKNEIL AND BLACK
CITED FOR BOARDING
Food Administrators for Idaho Claims
No Interest in the Ranch Which
Ism AIMED in Controversy

r. f. Bicknell. federal food admin
istrator for Idaho, and his son-in
law, j. II. Black. of Boise. have been
cited to appear before the County
ty to explain the presence of S2
sacks of white -four and two sacks
of sugar found on the j. ii. Black
ranch at Sand Springs. near Hager-
man, when an investigation was
made upon a charge of food hoard
ing. The -four and sugar were con-
fiscated by the Gooding county au-
thorities and taken to Wendell.
where they were distributed among
merchants there.
Bicknell Claims No Interest in Ranch
We take the following from the
Statesman of Tuesday. which is part
of letter signed by the Food Ad-
ministrator:
Permit me 20 state that ! do not
own the Gooding county ranch in
question and have nothing to do with
its management. The property is
owned by l.. II. Black, 4 resident OF
Boise. He Is my son-in-iaw, consid-
erably over age, responsible for his
own actions. II he has violated the
food regulations or knowingly per
mitted il to be done. he will have TO
answer for it and ! will assist in
prosecuting him the same as would
my other guilty of such offense.'
1t seems that the food in question
was obtained before the rules went
into effect governing such commodi'
ties and the fact that they were
found at the ranch was probably dur

GERMANS TASTE DEFEAT

When Foch wrested the initiative
from the Germans he reversed the
whole Western Front. The big thing
In the successful counter offensive
launched by the French with Amer
lean assistance is that it marks the
turning of the tide. The waters now
flow Berlinward and have ceased to
seep their way to the channel ports.
Not since the beginning of the war
has there been a more sudden change
than has now taken place This is
only foretaste of victory. but the
flavor is mighty sweet.
The Allies have met the Yaunted
drive of the foe and put him well
back across the Marne; they have
hammered back his beastly claws,
clutching at Chalons and Rheims and
eventually Paris; they have thrown
back his front and taken Scissors
and Fismes and other cities of more
or less Importance. They have put
the Germans on the retreat and on
the defensive for the first time in
more than a year, and the presence
