THE FOOD RULES.

1t strikes us that the State Food
Administrator is sighting his job, to
a considerable extent. He undertakes
to tell US just how much beef we can
have week, which is al right, and
he tells us upon what days we can
have roast beef, what days boiled
beef and on what days we must eat
steak. But he fails to tell US if we
can have gravy with any Of these
meats, he doesn't tell us whether the
roast beef is to be "smothered, I"
whether it is to be rare or well done
or just slid into the baking pan and
let 'er roast till dinners ready. We
are not told whether we can cook
potatoes with the roast beef or
whether we can have noodles along
with the boiled beef or not. And
there are whole lot of other prob
lens of the housewife that he has
failed to solve for her.
Now there appears to us to be a
whole lot of foolishness in this thing.
1t is all right for the administrator
to limit the amount Of any particular
meat person or a family may use,
if there is a shortage of that par
ticular meat and it is needed to feed
the armies or the people behind the
armies. But to undertake to pre-
scribe the particular kind of meat a
family may have on a particular day
looks like folly. What difference
does it make to the government wheth
er family eats roast beef or boiled
beef or no beef on Monday? The
rules prescribe one roast beef day
and two boiled beef days with one
steak day. Now some persons do not
care for boiled beef and some care
only for steak. Saturday is the only
steak day. What is the meat man to
do with his steak during the rest OF
the week when the people are eating
the roast and the boils? We have no.
ticed that the whole darn beef goes
dead all at once.
There may be some excuse for the
food administrator undertaking to
regulate these matters but we fail to
understand the necessity for it. II
he would just prescribe the amount
of meat one could buy during a week
then give the meat stores orders not
to sellany greater quantity and leave
the people to settle the kind they will
buy if they can and when they will
eat it we suspect he will have per.
formed his duty and will have done
as much toward winning the war as
he does when he makes out a menu
for the tables of the people.

ers and moneys being urged
upon the government from influ-
entail sources today.
Troops, especially the foreign
speaking men of this nation, are
strongly urged.
The problem, taken up serious
ly some time ago, and rejected as
impractical then, is coming to the
fore again.
Aid in the form of troops would
be given only if Russia were
agreeable.
The American position is that
Russia should not be forced to
accept anything she does not want
and she has clearly indicated she
would regard as an encroachmept
any intervention by Japan.
The suggestion for Red Cross
workers contemplates the infiltra-
ton of far larger numbers of
these than has been undertaken
to date. Their work naturally
would be non-military.
But their presence, some urge,
would be stimulus to Russia and
encourage the growing anti-Ger-
manism there.
1t is held that strong financial
achievements would give the
Russians a chance to develop
themselves, organize their shat
tered government and cement the
anti-German movement.
Members of congress who have
studied Russian affairs were en-
thusiastic today at the direct
action" policy of friendship Presi-
dent Wilson is urging toward

WITH THE BRITISH
ARMIES IN FRANCE, May
2O-An American aviator, a
captain from the region of
Philadelphia, fought the
Germans over the lines east
of Ypres, with his leg broken
by q machine gun bullet, I'M.
Ill his engine was disabled.
Descending in No Mans Land
he unstrapped himself from his
seat and crawled into shell hole.
A German battery, firing at his
disabled machine, scored a direct
hit and smashed it.
The captain, surrounded Dy
bursting shrapnel, dragged him-
self from crater to crater until he
reached the allied front lines, near
the juncture of the Belgian and
British armies.
The aviator was taken to a hos
pital, where he is reported as con-
valescing.
Brilliant Success
French troops, attacking bril-
liantly near the Belgian border
last night, retook the Locre hos
pice, Mrulogzee, the entire wood
south of Brulogzee, the cross
roads nearby and several farms,
advancing their line some distance
to the east of Hill A. They took
500 unwounded prisoners. The
French casualties were light.
The attack greatly improved
the French positions around Mont
Rouge and Mont Schehpenberg.
The French suddenly threw them
selves on the Germans on a front
of between two and three miles,
and the result was never in doubt.
British troops advanced their
line on front Of 900 yards be-
tween Aveluy wood and Hebu-
terne, diminishing a sharp and
dangerous salient and occupying
four enemy posts. A hot counter
attack was repulsed.
