BRITISH GOVERNMENT
HELPS PAY FOR BREAD

There has been much misunder-
standing about the bread program I'm
England. II is true that the English
man buys q loaf OF bread for less than
an American can. but II Is poorer
bread. and the British government IS
paying S2oO.0O0.000 year toward the
cost OF il.
All the grain grown In Great Brit
ain Is taken over by the government
ut an arbitrary price and the imported
wheat purchased on the markets at
the prevailing market price. This is
turned over 10 the mills by the govern
ment at price that allows the adul-
terated war bread loaf of four pounds
to sell at IS cents, the two pound ioaf
at 0 cents and the one pound loaf at 5
cents.
In France. under conditions some
what similar. but with larger ex-
traction the four pound loaf sells for
10 cents.

NEED BIG HERDS
Europe's Meat Supply Must Come
From America.
Warning Nations Have Depleted Live
Stock at Enormous Rate, Fve1
Killing Dairy Cattle For Food.

American stock breeders are being
asked TO conserve their aocks and
herds In order to meet Europe's ire
mendous demands for meats during
the war and probably for many years
afterward.
The United States food admins
traton reports that American stock
raisers have shown disposition to
cooperate with the government in in
creasing the nations supply Of live
stock.
Germany today is probably better
supplied with live stock than any 9th
cr European nation. When the Ger
man armies made their big advance
into France and then retreated vir-
tunlly all the cattle in the invaded
territory - approximately 100000
head We're driven behind the German
lines.
Iut In England where 100000
acres of pasture lands have been turn
ed into grain fields The cattle herds
IRE Increasing rapidly. One Of the
reasons apparently is the declining
maximum price scale adopted by the
English as follows For September,
StT70 per 100 pounds October, SIPS;
November and December. Si6OS; Jan
larry Sl440 The effect OF these prices
Was to drive beef animals on the mar
ket as soon as possible
In France the number of cattle as
we'll as the quality have shown an
enormous decline during the war
Where France had i4,S0T 600 head OF
cattle in 1913, she now has only r.
81. 300 a decrease Of 1866 per cent.
And France is today producing only
one gallon OF milk compared to two
and one-half gallons before the war.
Denmark and Holland have been
forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef
because of the lack of necessary feed.
Close study of the European meat
situation has convinced the Food Adj
that the future problem |
u America lies largely in the produc-
lion Of meat producing animals and |
dairy products rather than In the pro-
iuctlon OF cereals for export when /
he war will have ceased.

ADMINISTRATION SAYS

There is no royal road TO food
conservation. We can only ac-
eomplish this by the voluntary
action Of our whole people, each

westa of Verdun, Oct. 29.-Activities
along the center of the American
front began long before daylight this

with gas shells at 2:30 o'clock. which

YANkS IN ITALY
The Americans Ready To Enter
Battle There.
Two Regiments Sent To Aid
the Offensive.

They Are in Reserve Behind

American Air Forces Also Are

ENTER THIRD WAR THEATER

Washington, Oct. 29.-American
troops are on the verge of active par
ticipation in the great war on the
third major front. This was the in
depreciation given here today of news
from Italian headquarters that Ameri-
cans are standing in reserve behind
the British and Italian forces now
driving across the Piave.
The news is considered significant.
not because of the size of the Ameri-
can contingent in Italy, or the direct
effect it may have on the battle, but
because it indicates the Italian drive is
a definite part of the great offensive
that is rapidly bringing complete de-
feat to the central powers. 1t has
added meaning to officials here since
Austria is now pleading for an i'm
mediate armiStice. So far as official
announcement show there are but two
regiments of infantry and necessary
auxiliary troops in the American force
in Italy. These units, and any others
that may have been sent, probably will
operate as part of one of the italian
or British organiza tons when the time
comes to throw them into the line.
The same practice was followed in
France, where two italian divisions
have been employed at various times
on the front as units of French army
corps.
A Unity of Command.
The sending of American troops to
Italy was not with the idea of adding
military strength; but to demonstrate
the unity of command and purpose on
all fronts. For that reason, the force
detached by General Pershing for this
expedition is believed not to have ex-
ceeded a brigade of infantry at most.
The artillery support contributed by
the allies to the Italian front is largely
British. Some American units are in
Italy, and have participated in the
work at the front.
