CAUGHT IN THE CURRENT

vowels does the stunt and brings this
Omir to the front
Here. as in England. the opinion Is
growing that while individual riveting
records are interesting enough as "fill-
ers in," they can never be headlners on
a worthwhile shipping program.
There is therefore more real interest
in the news recorded that both England
and America broke all previous records
for ship production in the month of
May: and most of us. like Mr.. Schwab,
have enough sporting blood to be ex-
hilarated by the thought OF a speeding
up contest between the two countries.
Which brings us to a consideration,
of the relation of the war garden to the
shipping board.
Last year we worked in our little lots
and we have Mr.. Hoover's word for It
| that the food we raised went far In
helping to feed the Allies.
This year we learn that England
which has had longer experience with
war gardens. is now rapidly approach
ing the time when she will be able to
raise enough food within her own bor-
ders to- feed her own people-a condi-
ton which had not existed since she
. became great COTl1neTClal ndtlOn.
This means that much cargo space
saved.

The growing supremacy of the Della
