GERMAN AND AMERICAN FLY

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
IN FRANCE, Feb. 21.-There has
been a considerable increase in aerial
activity in the American sector since
Monday night.
Enemy planes again flew over the
town where few days ago an
American field hospital was located,
and dropped bombs, but without
damage. One hostile machine was
driven to earth in damaged condi
ton by an American aviator.
The activity of the American anti
aircraft gunners, machine gunners
and battery operators kept the enemy
machines from flying low enough to
get good aim. One attempted to
come lower, but was holly engaged
and driven Off Another was chased
down after it had been hit by anti
aircraft fire. All day hostile planes
were over the American positions.
The artillery action also was lively
and a number of casualties are re-
ported. One she'll dropped on a cook
tent and wounded six men. Three
men in the trenches were wounded
by shrapnel, including Second Lieu

FIRST HOOVER BILL.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-The first
of Food Administrator Hoover's twin
food bills, proposing to put the ma
ton on rations, has been reported
favorably by Chairman Lever, Of
the House Agriculture Committee.

timony by Hoover in the committee
hearings, in which he declared the
nation must cut down rs per cent.
on breadstuffs, 10 per cent. on beef,
liz to Is per cent. on pork fat, 10
per cent. on sugar and per cent. on
dairy products.
| Almost carte blanche power is
given the Food Administrator to reg
ulate food from the time it leaves
the farm until it appears on the
restaurant table or in the baker 5
loaf.
Committeeman were assured that
the sizes of pieces of meat, bread
and other foods in public places will
be enforced at once under the bill.
For instance, it is proposed that
a steak shall weigh no more than six
ounces per person.
Home consumption is not to be
regulated rigidly, but it is affected
by restrictions which are placed on
manufacturers and distributors who
sell to the housewife.
/ Hoover declared himself emphati-
cally, in the hearings, for seed sub
Isidies of various sorts to farmers tt

He told the committee that last
years corn crop, far from being the
heralded record-maker, was 200, 000,-
600 bushels short of normal, when
it's poor quality was considered.
