TO CONTROL WHEAT
FROM SEED TO SHOP

PARIS, Feb. 28.-The cabinet bill
granting the government fun powers
over wheat production and wheat con-
troll in France was debated in the
chamber Of deputies today.
Minister of Provisions Boret said
There must be an intensification OF
wheat production and the cabinet is
firmly resolved to use extraordinary
measures to accomplish this end. The
production has been increased since
the war began, but only enough to
supply France with food for an addl-
tional fifteen days in the year. The
French requirements have been sup
Piled by imports. but new tonnage
must be used for other purposes than
to import wheat. which the country
was able to produce"
Discussion brought out that under
the new powers it asks the govern
ment can take over the whole harvest
of 1918. becoming the sole buyer and
sole seller Of grains for bread making.
II was also shown that the govern
ment would have power to supply seed

1T is COWARDICE NOT
BRAVERY

M NIMPORTANT from a mi
w lltary standpoint the gas
attack by the Germans
on our troops at the front. some
of whom may have been inland
empire boys, is significant. It
typifies the Teuton method in
this war. The use of gas
against troops is fiendish. The
kaiser INTRODUCED it as a means
of warfare. 1t is on par with
their sinking of merchant ships
without warning and a chance
for those aboard to escape; the
bombing of hospitals and cities,
the enslavement OF women and
the mutilating of little children.
The German policy is vicious
but it is failure. 1t is not eff
fective. Intended to awe the
world and make it stand in fear
of kaiserism it has had the re-
verse effect. 1t has enraged
the world. 1t has aroused con-
tempt and a determination to
stamp this thing from the face
of the earth. Frightfulness is
not bravery; it is cowardice. 1t
cringes and crawls and witness
when brought to bay. 1t is
valorous chiefly against those
who are helpless or unpre-
pared. At the Marine and
many times since the boasted
Prussian army has been unable
to stand even against inferior
of French and British.
The kaiser iSgoing to be whip
ped and his resort to rattle
suake tactics of warfare makes
his defeat more certain and
will make that defeat more
thorough when it does come. !
The kaiser has misjudged man.

IT. HE case of the so called
W Soldiers New Letter af-
fords a splendid instance
of the value of looking into
money raising schemes before
taking up with every proposal
that is broached upon an un-

It's Washington correspond
ent has wired the New York
Tribune that the president may
later indorse republican con-
gressmen who have consistent
ly supported the war policies
Of the administration.
1t is stated also that Il nom
partisan coalition may be form
ed in which Idaho will return
a republican and democratic
senator.
If true, it is the working out
of broad purpose. There could
be no greater disaster than for
the war to be made the foot
ball of partisan politics. There
is no surer way for the conflict
to be lost.
1t is as important to keep
partisan feeling and prejudice
buried for the period of the
war as to keep pro-German
propaganda submerged. The
one is as destructive as the
other.
This war is a supreme ira
gedy. Events in Europe are
daily making it more porten-
tous, more terrible. The Prus-
slams have obliterated the east
ern front and their empire is no
longer girted by a ring of steel.
The more than a million Am
erican boys who are in France
or en- route there, are offering
themselves for the mighty sac
rifice. They are in an hourly
rendezvous with death. The
drafted men and the volunteers
go down to the dangerous sea
in ships without a murmur and
then, flushed with the thought
of an undivided country be-
hind and supporting them, go
over there to face greater
peril.
Millions of taxpayers are.
without complaint, pouring
literal billions of money into
the nations war chests. The
people are sacrificing hus-
bands, sons, brothers, money
without stint, all in loyal pur-
pose to make America strong
in this gigantic struggle.
Is this monumental sacrifice
to be imperiled by efforts of
self seeking politicians to cap
italize it for partisan purposes?
Are division and strife to be
stirred up at home that will
weaken US abroad and length
en- the bloody lists cabled from
over there Of lives lost and
bodies mutilated?
Let the politicians beware.
Days of agony are ahead, days .
when the stupendous truth of
this war will be upon and .
around us. They will be days .
Of wrath in which there will be
little patience with carping
partisan and bogus patriots.

] 1SPOS1NG of what you have or getting
what yOuwant is no longer matter Of
luck.
It's matter of going after the peo-
pie whom you want to reach.
Thomas Dreier, editor of Associated
Advertising" the official organ of the
Associated Advertising Clubs of Amer
lea, said recently: "The way to get
what you want is to find out the man
who's got it, and then go after him and
hang on"
And isn't that good logic? Isn't it
fact that none of us is really independ-
ent-that we are all interdependent-
that the things one man has serve to
supply the needs of some other man
that we are all subject to the great law
of Supply and Demand?
Take the Want Ads, for instance. Do
they not form a daily market place
where the man who wants to sell can
get in touch with the man who wants to

domestic who wants job-where the
man who is looking for position can
reach the eye of the employer who is
looking for men?
venture the assertion that eight,
persons in every ten have never thought
about, and consequently never realized,
the far-reaching power of the Want
Ad columns in The East Oregonian.
The people who use the Want Ads
aren't trusting to luck.
They are going after what they want
in a mighty quick, sure and inexpensive
way.

idea is opposed because from
the standpoint of efficient
news service it is a flimflam.
1t provides an inadequate SER
vice at high cost when a far
superior service is available at
all times at a greatly lower
cost. This fact can be thor
oughly proven to anyone desir-
ing to look into the subject.
With such necessity of economy
before the public it behooves
our war drive committee to be-
ware of any $1,000 gift for this
purpose.
Senator Lodge thinks food
and fuel control by the govern
ment has been a failure. But
fuel, sugar and some other
products in which there is a
scarcity are selling at prices
but slightly above the peace
price when without government
control the prices for these pro-
ducts, based on supply and de-
mand, would be sky high.

PRESS COMMENT
Washington Housing Problem

Washington's housing problem
grows yet more acute. Householders
are asked to provide 5000 additional
rooms for taking care of war work
ers. The boarding houses are packed
and the appeal is to private homes.
What the need must be appears in
the estimate that there are 10000
government employees in the capital,
not counting men IN uniform, 70 per
cent of them being women. Dormi
tories that are being built on the
union station plaza to accommodate
$500 will not be ready until late in
November. More dskmitories in 9th
er localities are being planned, and
there will be need for them. The
civil service commission estimates
that 12,000 more government workers
will come TO Washington in the next
four months.-Springfeld Republi-
can.

Marked Variation in Yield
Of Income and Profits for
Different States This Year

Wide variation in the yield Of in:
come and excess profits taxes in differ.
ent states this year, as compared with
income tax payments last year, was
shown by tabulations of the internal
revenue bureau at Washington. Eight
times as much revenue was received
from these sources this year as last
in the entire country, the comparative
figures being 1891 100000 and $685.
100000, yet the increases by states.
ranged from 90 times for Idaho, Utah
and Montana to Is times for Mississippi
pi, Alabama and West Virginia. New.
York state ranked first in the volume
of income and excess profits taxes re-
turned this year, yetsthe increase over
last years yield was only 1-3 times.
Tax Officials, it is said, have found it,
impossible to. draw. definite conclusions,
concerning tax evasions from the tab
ulations.

Stars OF Gold
Bands to be WON on Arm by
Those Who Have Lost Near
Relatives in War.

War department officials who have
been consulted in regard to the black
band with gold stars to, be worn on
the left, arm by those who have lost
relatives in the war recommended that
the gold star of the navy, Fifteen-six-
teenths Of an inch in size, which may
be purchased at any army or navy
equipment store, be appliqued by hand
on a band of broadcloth or other suit
able material. The use of the reg
ulation br0adcloth is not obligatory,
however, and the insignia may be made
at home.
The band is to be of black, three
inches wide, the stars, one for each
member of the family lost, to be of
gold, of gilded metal, satin, or of cloth,
or may be embroidered in yellow silk
or gold thread. The badge will not be
patented and will not be commercial
lied.
The badge was devised by the wom-
ans committee of the Council of Ma
tional Defense and approved by Presi-
dent Wilson.
