Persons Between l3 and 90

Half Ounces Daily
staff Correspondence

WASHINGTON, April 9.-New bread
regulations in France which will place
the people of that country on two
thirds their former bread allowance
were announced by the food admins
tration to-day. These regulations pro-
vide:
Children less than three years old
three and one-halt ounces day
Children from three to thirteen years
old, seven ounces.
Persons from thirteen to sixty wears
old, ten and one-half ounces. Hard
workers in this age class may receive
three and one-half ounces more.
Persons more than sixty years old.
seven ounces.
The fact that bread constitutes more
than one-half the diet of the French
nation and the further fact that the
price of meat is such as virtually to
prohibit its use by large part of the
population make these figures highly
significant Of the extent to which the
FRENCH people are going in their efforts

Rumor That u. S. Plane

Denials

LONDON, April all London was
talking to-day about the latest war
rumor-the landing in England last
night of an American airplane after
nonstop fight from New York with
twelve passengers. The authorities de-
clared there was no basis for the story
but this denial served merely to give
it additional currency
According to the rumor, this was the
big surprise" which Premier Lloyd
George said last week the Americans
would soon give the Germans
WASHINGTON, April 9. - American
aviation officials said to-day no Amer

Italy Prepared for
Austria S Attack
with America Behind Us We
Are Ready" Count di
Cellere Declares

BALTIMORE, April 9--Declaration
by Count Y. Macchi di Cellere, the Ital-
ian Ambassador, that "the flag of the
United States knows only one path
the path 20 victory" brought rousing
cheers day at the "Over There" ex-
position, where President Wilson last
Saturday made his address pledging the
country's all to the cause Of democracy.
That address was characterized by
Count di Cellerc as "in itself victory
over our enemies
THE President pledged the unlimited
strength of America to the cause your
are lighting for" said the ambassador.
"We know that this pledge is backed by
the typical American determination. and
we will soon hear from the battlefelds of
Europe that what the German junkers
called year ago the great American
bluff has become the great American
achievement and the final stroke
against the German and Austrian lust
for world domination
Let it be so. Let the German and
Austrian fury strike where it wants.
We are ready. Germany had thought
that by sending to their death hun
dreds of thousands of men she could
dispose of England and France. She
has already found that she has only de-
stroyed the manhooc of the nation.
Austria is now getting ready 10 try
once more the bloody game against
Italy. Anxious days are coming FOR us.
But we are confident of the ultimate re-
suit. The democracy of the United
States is with Us, and its flag knows
only one path-thc path to victory"
