regulation which prevent profi-

as possible.
This will undoubtedly be the
spirit of the fateful interval be-
tween armistice and permanent
peace. It will be the basic poll
cy of the Food Administration
until the moment of automatic
expiration upon the proclamation
of the signing of peace with
Germany. The program will de-
pend for it's fulfillment upon the
cooperation of the people. The
compliance of the people is ex-
pected to come from self-inte-

md humanitarian promptings,
Much good will be done in facili-
tating the conservation of Eu-
rope to democracy and the or
ganization of that democracy
according to American ideals.
The food program will create
confidence in those ideals, and
it will not require any eltra-
sacrifice at home. This will be
the principal plan and work of
the Food Administration, and
the details will be worked out
at the various conference in pro-
gress. The system will serve

sealed, and it's influence will be
potent long afterwards, no mat

Arrival Of Gravel Assures
Immediate Improve
lnent Of Railroad
Avenue.
Bill of Lading for First Ship
ment of Five Carloads Re-
ceived by City Engineer
J. H. Evans Monday.

A bill of lading covering five
carloads of gravel to be used on
the east end of Railroad avenue
was received yesterday by City
J. Il. Evans, This shipment is
expected any day and work on
the road will'follow Immediately
upon its receipt, said Mr. Evans.
The section Of the roadway to be
improved extends from Ditch
avenue to the city limits.
According to the city engi-
neer, the city has placed an order
with the TioGa Sand Company
OF Alexandria for thirty-fve car
loads or 1900 tons. the first ship
ment of which is referred to
above. 1t is expected the ship
ments will arrive at the rate of
ten cars a month. Mr.. Evans
said that was the maximum
amount which could be handled
by his force here without delay.
The order calls for a fine
grade of material with ready
mixed binder. Mr.. Evans stated
the order had been placed for
some time, but the city had ex-
perienced much difficulty in Sc
curing cars for it's transporta-
tion. This stumbling block has
been overcome mainly through
the good offices of Mr.. H. K. Self
zer, head of the Union Bridge
and Construction Company, who
made intercessions in the city's
behalf through federal chan
nels. according to Mr.. Evans.
Undoubtedly this road is con-
sidered of prime necessity to fa-
cilitate unrestricted operation of
the government shipyard plant,
and right-of-way for immediate
shipments of this material came
about by direct governmental
order. It is a big move in the
right direction towards the de-
velopment of Morgan City and
many are the citizens who have
expressed the hope that con-
tinued work along this all inn
portant line may be expected in
the near future.

held Saturday at Memphis adopt
ed the same plans and tables
with very slight notifications,
and P. M. Harding. Food Admin
Iistrator for Mississippi, took the
result to Washington for approx
|al. The system is expected to
promptly become the ruling of
the Food Administration.
The rice industry was also ef-
fected by a series of new rulings,
the principal change being the
elimination of some part of the
old distribution system and the
reduction of some of the margins
,of profit in the handling of the
cereal between producer and con-
tsumer. AS an offset some of
the margins of profit on sugar
and flour has been raised to ] IL
cents a pound, with other fooGs
in proportion. The distribution
of sugar under the increased al
lotment Of three pounds per per-
son per month, has been put in
to effect. The Louisiana Sugar
Distribution Committee has gore
far ahead in its work, some Of
its problems are disappearing
and the outlook is very good that
the Louisiana crop will be dis
posed of within the time limit
Of safety and at the price fixed
by the Government. The latter
has given the state a good start
by turning in orders for A.
100000 pounds of sugar for ar
my. navy, Y. NJ. C. A. and other
during November and which will
assure the absorption of the

Will Discuss Peace Food
Problems.

John NJ. Parker, Food Admin
listrator for Louisiana, tele-
Igraphed to his office from Wash
ington asking that all district
and parish food administrators
be notified and urged to attend
an important meeting to be held
in New Orleans, November %.
The importance Of the meeting
lies in the fact that the entire
program Of the future is to be
mapped out, Mr.. Parker being
in Washington at a conference of
similar purpose.
Herbert's Hoover's statements
carried in the dispatches OF the
last few days give an idea of
the problems and the manner in
which they will be handled. The
popular food conservation will
be kept up. Food regulations
will be relaxed to considerable
extenA The demand for food
will be greater than ever, for
there will be larger armies to
feed and more starving to sue
cor. The United States policy
of humanity will undoubtedly be
to feed the hungry first and then
ask on which sade their sons and
fathers fought. Production in
the United States will be kept
up by continuing the adequate
reward to the farmer. The peo-
pie will be asked 20 continue
food saving as duty. There
will be less need for the saving
of particular foods, because all
will be in demand and because
the elimination of the submarine
will leave an open sea and free
movement of ships which will
permit gathering the surplus
food from other countries. Wheat
embargoes will be entirely re-
moved. Sugar conservation will
continue, and may last for per-
haps a year. The main control
which will survive will be that
of food distribution. Prices

Comprising the Campaign.

Speaker CLARK Is of the opinion
that Congress will remain in session
until early In November. adjourning
probably only in time to let faithful
members get back to their districts
in season TO vote. The fourth Liberty
Loan campaign will occupy three
weeks beginning on September 90,
and during that period party politics
will of necessity be in occultation.
Election day falls or November 5. so
that we shall have n Congress cam
paign Of only two weeks: and this Is
likely to restrict the State and local
campaigns to the same period.
Some Congressman seeking reelec-
ton may fear their absence from
their districts will work against them
with the voters. Their opponents.
with no duties to attend to in Wash
lngton, will be able to get around
the districts and meet the electors.
But the danger in this to an honest.
efficient and loyal Senator or Repre-
sentative is small. The man who
can say that he must refrain from
urging his appeal on the electors be-
cause his oath of office requires him
to be in the House or the Senate will
advance an argument in his own be-
half that should strongly influence oil
patriotic men and women. Indeed,
the member Of-yIongress who does
not shirk his present duty should be
in a better position politically than
the member who quits the Capitol to
labor for his future.
And perhaps Congress ~lll find it
possible to take fortnight's recess
after the nation has bought seven or
eight billions Of dollars worth OF
bonds.

HOW HOT IS 1T?
A Good Thermometer on Nassau Street
Would Hurt Mr.. Scars Business.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN--Str: The
opinion expressed In THE SUN recently
concerning weather bureau temperatures
and street temperatures IL well taken.
The latter are the temperatures in
which humanity swelters during the
heat OF summer. THE SUN has always
noted them; the Daily Argus Of Mount
Vernon usually publishes the range OF
high temperatures along its chief thor
oughfare during the hot spells,
Street temperatures are often seven
or eight degrees higher than those Of
the nearby weather bureau stations
rarely II ever are they lower: and the
reason is obvious. The weather bureau
seeks to find the temperature OF the
free air. The thermometers therefore
must be placed where they will not be
affected by the radiation of nearby
buildings In large cities such expos
ures are difficult to And. The tops of
buildings present the best locations. and
usually they are chosen for weather
bureau ohservatories
At Battery Park the official thermom-
eters are Ala feet above ground; at
Mount Vernon they are eight feet. In
other respects the conditions of ex-
posture are practically the same. Ac-
cording to the law OF attitudes the daily
means should average between one and
two degrees lower at Battery Park
than at Mount Vernon. AS matter OF
fact they do not. In the past eight
months. owing to systematic differences
In maximum and minimum records,
temperature figures at these stations are
subjected TO pretty close study. Here
are the means for the past e ght months
The sun., 1918-08-13

Tho daily maxima are sometimes
little higher. the daily min!ma are regu-
larly a lttle lower in Mount Vernon
than at Battery Park, Observations at
Plttsburg and at ST Louis show that
Surban Citations are normal and explica-
bic Errors OF observation are greater
than instrumental errors but In ac-
cordance with the law Of averages they
are apt to right themselves 20 great
extent. The differences between the
records OF the two stations covering a
period OF two years are somewhat
greater than those tabulated. From
their nature II Is pretty certain that
they are observational rather than in
strumental. When stif wind from a
northerlv quadrant prevails there should
be no difference IN the readings Of the
thermometers Of the TWO stations s a
rule there is none, in spite OF the 400
feet difference in altitude. In stiil
weather the differences are rarely more
than two or three degrees.
Mr. Scarf was once an editor: he
therefore has the moral right TO soar TO
the height OF 414 feet. His soarings,
however. do not affect the accuracy of
his observations. II any philanthropist
desires to serve lower New York he can
do 30 by placing a good thermometer
at some convenient and shaded place on
Nassau street where humanity and
lower New York may realize how much
hotter II seems TO be than It really Is.
