Odell Made State
Ice Administrator
Expected to Appoint a Dep.
uty in Every
County

Benjamin B. Odell, Ice Administrator
for New York City, was appointed Ice
Controller for the whole OF New York
State by the State Food Commission
yesterday. Hitherto he has issued
licenses, under his statutory power, to
Valley towns; in his new Office he has
been instructed to require all har-
vesters, manufacturers and dealers in
ice in New York State to take out
licenses. The State Food Commission
expects him to appoint a deputy ice
controller in each county.
The commission gave power to New
York City to buy and sell ice through
Dr.. Jonathan c. Day, Commissioner Of
Markets. This is in line with Dr. Days
plan to widen the scope of municipal
buying and selling of food. He already
had power to buy and sell foods that
are necessaries Of life.
Controller Odell received many ap-
plications for licenses yesterday, as
the result of his announcement that
police aid had been requested in round
ing UP unlicensed ice dealers.
Butchers and grocers are talking Of
raising the price of meat, butter and
certain other foods as a result of the
increase in the price Of ice to all users
except household CONSUMERS. The aver
age increase in the price of ice to them
is 60 per cent.
Food Board officials said yesterday
that any attempt to raise the price Of
food with the increase in the price of
ice as an excuse would be unjastified

PARIS, April 24.-The correspt ndent
of "L'Humanite" in Switzerland, who
he's interviewed many persons recently
arrived from Switzerland, declares that
the Lichnowsky revelations have pro-
duced no impression whatever upon the
German people.
Everybody has read Prince Lichnow-
sky's memoirs, he says, but no one
takes any interest in them. The Social
Democratic press has tried to show
they are Of no Importance. The gen
eral answer to any questions founded
on the documents is that "the spirit of
the German Fatherland is triumphant" ;"
Chauvinlsm is more prevalent than it
mas mas been for long time. The peace of
Brest-Litovsk, which was founded on
violence, has confirmed the power Of
the generals. Even among the Social
Democrats Hindenburg and Ludendorff
are widely admired. The bourgeois
party is unanimous in demanding peace
only by the sword and many feel that
1t can bc imposed by the German mill
tary strength on the West front. The
conservatives are completely in the
saddle, and the people at large are
more excited by dreams of CONQUEST
than ever.
Perhaps just because of this there
mas peeh severe criticism of the Admi-
raity for its conduct of the submarine
war; IN the Reichstag the Socialist
Noske declared: America shows no in
clination to change her attitude. All
calculations based on tonnage are use.

taken in his predictions. The sub

Count Won Westarp is reported to
have said: "In 1915 we obtained ouI
successes more easily and with less
sacrihce than now. because the enemy's
defences were not so perfected"
