ErOm limited Statas

From United States
Statistics compiled by the Food Ad-

tai of all food exported to the four
allies-the United Kingdom, France,
to January 1, 1918, would furnish
complete yearly rations for 57,1O0,933

to support 16,314,552 persons, and
with an excess of both protein and
fats sufficient for several million
more.

War Trade Board Finds
German Submarines
Directed at NeutraIs

Germany's war leaders are using
the submarine to preevnt fulfilment
of Americas agreements to feed and
relieve European neutrals, according
to a statement by the War Trade
Board. 1t says:
"A mass of cumulative evidence and
indications in the possession of the
War Trade Board shows that Ger
many is employing the submarine
menace to prevent neighbor neutrals
receiving any food or favors at the
hands Of the United States and it's
associates in the war, and to coerce
these neutrals through starvation and
political and economic dependence up
on Germany, quite as much as to
strike at the communications of it's
pponents--Germany's ostensible aim
nm proclaiming the ruthless submarine
campaign.
Further indications tend to show
that the submarines are being used
along similar dog-in-the-manger
lines, to destroy neutral shipping
without regard to it's employment"

WIN NpStilELD MARKERS
 FOR LEBANON PlL GRlMS

Windshield markers are being print ed for use on automobiles which make the patriotic pilgrimage to Lebanon on Sunday, Sept. 8, in response to the invitation of the Lebanon war bureau to all Connecticut to visit historic shrines in Lebanon on that day. They will be ready for distribution on and after Thursday, Sept. 5th.
 These markers will say in big letters 'fEn route to Lebanon-Patrietie Pill grimage to Connecticuts Historic by Fuel Administrator for Connecti- cut"
 Arrangements have been made by which all war bureaus and town com mittees of the Connecticut state coun- cil of defense will be supplied with these markers for distribution on ap- plieation. Persons who plan to make the pilgrimage should make applica- tion for markers
 On the reverse side of the marker is the following notice: "The United States fuel administration has called upon the public to refrain, until fur ther notice, from the use of gasoline for pleasure riding on Sundays. The patriotic automobile pilgrimage to Lebanon on Sept has been excepted, with the understanding that those who make the run will refrain from the use of gasoline for pleasure riding for one Sunday after the federal request is rescinded and will aid in every way in encouraging compliance with the governments request"
 Much pleasure has been expressed by persons contemplating participant in the pilgrimage at news of the ac- ceptance by Father Jules Cabanel, chaplain in chief of the famous French Blue Devils, on an invitation to visit Lebanon on Pilgrimage day and speak there in behalf of the republic of France. Father Cabanel is an eio- quent speaker, a veteran of three years life in the trenches, and was sent to America by the French gov- ernment with the French high com mission. The close associations of Lafayette and the French army in the Revolution with Lebe non make it es- pecially appropriate that France should be represented in the program 1 at Lebanon on Sept. 8.
