FEW FOOD SHIPS
 WERE TORPEDOED

London, Nov. S-Since the convoy system was successfully adopted some 26,000,000 tons of food and 35, 5,000,0 900 tons of munitions have been brought in convoy to this country and the food ships lost have been reduced from nearly 10 per cent. to 1 per cent.
 This summer 3O7 ships of tonnage of 1 1,466, 1000 came with the Argentine wheat crop for Great Britain, France and Italy, and only one ship was lost. This may be compared with the worst period for sinkings, the week ended April 29, 1917, when 119 ships were lost.
 Conveys between July 26, 1917, and Oct. 19, 1918, were 1,O27 in number, containing 14,96S ships, of which only 118 were lost. The gross tonnage was 77,057,231. The tonnage lost was 654. .2SS. One convoy of United States troops and British ships brought SO,- GOO men.
 The grand total of merchant ships conveyed was S5,772 and the losses were only 433.
 The volume of traffic to and from the United Kingdom in less than three-quarters of this year increased by one-third, while the risk of loss is one-half of what it was.

CLEMENCEAU GETS OVATION IN
 SENATE LOBBY

Paris, Nov. 8-Premier Clemenceau appeared for moment last night in the lobby of the senate after sitting of that body which had declared him i1 traditional phrase, to have "deserv- ed well of his country" The pre- mier's approach to the group of sen ators lingering after the adjournment was the signal for an ovation to him.
 The Premier said:
 "Gentlemen: We are now coming to a difficult time. It is harder to win peace than to win the war. We must so act that France will resume the place in the world of which she is worthy. More than ever must she gather herself up; more than ever must she be disciplined and strong. have confidence in her.''
 Then, pushing his way through the circle, the premier said:
 "Will you allow me to return to my task?"

Provision is to be made that the administration program, which Dem ocrats point out, is leading to suc- cessful termination of the war, is to be continued until hampered through the reconstruction period. The open season for politics, which was declar- ed in the recent. campaign, has not been closed and the feeling still runs high between the two parties.
 In fact, it is openly stated in ad- ministration circles that it will be pleasing to those close to the Presi- dent if a treaty of peace could be pushed so rapidly that it might come before the Democratic Senate for con- firmation before March 4 when the present session of Congress ends.
 The Republicans elected Tuesday will not sit in Congress until De- oember, 1919. Estimates on the time necessary to complete the peace treaty range from six months to a year and a half
 Friends of the President believe that the readjustment of American industry and the re-absorption of it's man-poWer into the industries pres sent problems fully as difficult of so- lutfon as did the organization of the country for war.
 It i@ known that Herbert Hoover, Food administrator, has told the President that the Food Administra- tion as at present constituted is un- necessary after peace, as two-thirds of it's activities have to do with the regulation of food conditions internal to this country. He regards the prob lems after the war as one of keep ing foreign spectators from invading our food supplies and taking them from our own people and the erec- tion of an embargo against the with drawal of food supplies from this country except under license from some Federal authority which shall see that the food so exported goes to the places authorized.

A SERIOUS LABOR CRISIS NOW FACES
 JAPANESE GOVT.

Tokio, Nov. Associated Press) The recent food riots in Japana are dangerous symptoms of a widening social cleavage in the opinion of To- shio Fujiwara, a leading business man of Tokio and an authority on social questions. He contrasts the conditions under which the working class of Japan live with the enor- nous profits of great enterprises, and sees in the ostentation of the count less war millionaires a social irritant which is causing the theories of west ern agitators to work on the minds of the Japanese wage earners.
 MT. Fujiwara thinks that Japanese skilled Workmen have already acuuir- ed the ideas of the working people of western countries He adds: ''These ideas unfortunately mostly n a wrong sense, are steadily working upon the minds of our working peo- pie, especially those in big cities like Tokio, Osaka, etc. He continues:
 Headers of the nation are there fore strongly urged to adopt some measures for relief of the general dis content so that disaster may be avoid ed. Should this general discontent of the working class be left without rem edy, we may have more serious out bursts and these may bring about a catastrophe to the Empire"
 MT. Fujiwara urges that Japanese statesmen learn a lesson from Amer ican and British statesmen in the handling of national problems, es- pecialIy food problems. Improvement of the living conditions of the work ing classes in Japana, he believed to be urgently imperative, and this re- form should be inaugurated in the big cities of Tokio ard Osaka.

Washington, Nov. 8-It Is posi- lively asserted that the government is planning at an early date to fix prices definitely for such necessities as steel, wood, hardware, glass, iron, food and other articles required dur ing the reconstruction period in Eu- rope, with the idea of preventing prof. iteering and aiding our Allies in re- establishing themselves.
 The prices to be determined by a committee to be selected by the Pres ident and department heads, will in- clude a fair profit for the manufac- turer. It is said that more prices will be fixed in the next sixty days than during the entire period of the war.
 President Wilson last night was given a report based on a survey of the cotton situation by Dr. Thomas w. Page, Chairman of the Cotton Committee of the War Industries Board. The report recommended that no basic price be fixed on cot ton by the government, setting forth that there is no cotton shortage.
 At one time President Wilson fa- vored the fixing of cotton price, but later agreed that such action should be postponed until an official and thorough survey of the situation could be made.
 Sweeping legislation to guide the United States back into peace pro- | duction and provide for the re-absop- ton of it's man-power into industry is practically ready for introduction in Congress. It will provide for a continuation of the activities now en- tered in the War Industries Board, 1 War Trade Board, Food and Fuel Ad-
 ministrations and various labor boards and for a continuation of the neces- sary authority in the hands of the 1 President to handle such emergencies as may arise during the period, ac- 1 cording to the Democratic leaders. ! While the power of these various i boards endures to such time as a fi-
 nal peace may be proclaimed, yet the i new legislation is expected to appear l in Congress immediately following an official announcement of an armis- ] tice. Administration leaders do not ! intend to allow their control of Con- gress to pass with such measures un- l provided. A Republican Congress
 might seek to tie the Presidents hands 1 in the great reconstruction work, or
 on the other hand, might claim the 1 credit for the successful accomplish ment of the great organization to 1

RECEIVER NAMED FOR THE
 FARMERS DAIRY COMPANY

To protect the interests of the $50 Or more stockholders of the Farmers Dairy Co.,, a cooperative association organized under the law of Connecti- cut, Judge Frank D. Haines of the Superior Court today named George A. Mckay of Danbury, receiver of the company with authority to carry on the business. This action was taken on the petition of Col. J. Moss Ives of Danbury, representing Clark L. Page, Amos T. Camp, Edward Lowell and William c Johnson of Newtown, and others. They own more than 10 per cent. of the capital stock of the company.
 The Farmers Dairy Co. has a milk pasteurization and distributing station in North avenue in this city, and handles daily about IA, 1000 quarts of milk contributed by the stockholders Of the company and others.
 The reason assigned for asking for a receivership is that there is friction between the stockholders regarding the management of the company, and 1t is deemed wise to suspend the present management that there may be a thorough reorganization. While this is in progress the business will be continued by the receiver under tha direction of the court and all bills will be paid and contracts carried out.
 Officers of the company waived the formal notice of the hearing, and g hearing upon the cophrmation of the temporary receiver will be held nex Friday morning in the Superior Cour at 10 o'clock.
 Among the reasons assigned fol asking for a receiver is the fact tha suits have been threatened whicI might impair the credit of the com pany and prevent it from doing busi ness. and that at least one attachmen had been filed. Through the naminl O ia receiver sucll actions will bt prevented, while the interest of botl the stockholders and creditors will b, protected.
 The Farmers Dairy Company wa! organized about two years ago witI a capital stock of $10O 900, of whicf half has been paid in. The stock holders are about $50 farmers of Fair field and LitchfieId counties. A pas teurization plant was erected in Nortl avenue in this city and the compan! daily distributes about 14,OOO quart! of milk which undergoes all of thu tests required by the city

The Allied advance. particularly the exploit of the Americans in entering Sedan, shows clearly that continuation of hostilities by Germany can lead only to military debacle in the near future. This feeling is confirmed by news received from reliable quarters that Germany's internal affairs are drifting toward chaos.
 Last night the people crowded the newspaper bulletin boards until a late hour, undiscouraged by the rain. When the news of Sedan was flashed there was an outburst of cheers. Joy and enthusiasm increased as yester- day waned. Groups sang the Mar seillaise, the Sambre ct Mouse and other patriotic songs. Cafes were thronged. Champagne sparkled in glasses. The people drank to eternal France, the regained provinces, to the Allies, to Premier Clemenceau and Marshal Foch
