campaign being conducted by the

ment OF Agriculture. as stated briefly

sumed Immediately or they will be

These potatoes are Of last years
crop and in order to make the cam
paign a success the Food Administra-
ton is urging that they be used I'm
preference TO the new crop.
The saving in wheat by the use of
these potatoes is effected by the fact
that the nutritiye value of the potato
will lessen the necessity for wheat
The Food Administration's new
slogan is: Eat an extra potato
every meal"
Clarence r. Wilson. Food Admins
traitor of the District, will from time
to time announce a fair scale of
prices for potatoes. and he has asked

GALLIVAN HITS
AT BURLESON'S
MAIL SERVICE
P. M. General Seeking to
Show Surplus, Repre-
sentative Charges.

Another attack on the policies Of
Postmaster General Burleson was
made on the floor Of the House yes
terday by Representative James A.
Gallivan, Democrat. Of Massachu'
setts.
"The utterly inadequate mail service
Is caused by q mad effort Of the Post
master General to force an apparent
postal surplus" he declared.
Gallivan then read what purporfed
to be O statement by an Anerican
general in France to the effect that
soldiers are in France to fight and
not to read letters from home"

utter surprise and CONSERVATION. II
is unworthy Of an American general,
and I think 1t Is time the attention
of the House was brouSn. to this
statement, which should be charac-
terized as unworthy"
To show the real feeling Of Ameri-
cas- soldiers with regard 10 mail from
the "home folks" Gallivan read a
letter from Col. Edward l.. Logan, o:
tho American army in France. II
was a personal letter 10 the Repre-
sentative from the officer. and read
in part as follows:
Soldiers Want Letters.
Say that the boys are in good
health, but above all tell them over
there to write and then write some
more. Tell them not to wait for the
boys to answer. We may be in the
trenches all the time. Tell the folks
at home to keep in. mind that there

ing to our boys as to hear from

The House applauded the senti-
ments.

Gallivan. have seen a steady de-
cline in postal efficiency. Complaints
regarding the service are general.
The department has tried to lay the
blame on the military authorities
and the railroads. but there is only
one conclusion to be reached. and
that is that the present administra-
tive policy of the Postmaster Cen

GERMAN ARMY IN RETREAT
BETWEEN OISE AND AISNE

Paris, Oct. 2S.-Germany's armies
have begun a new retreat, this time
between the Disc and the Aisne. Gen.
Debeneys First army, in the teeth of
stubborn resistance and repeated
counter-attacks has succeeded in
swinging on its right flank so that it
faces east. 1t has reached Guise and
the Guise-Marle road, driving the
enemy before 1t.
Gen. Debeney now is in position to
push rapidly along the upper Disc
valley toward Hirson and Verviens
through a level country devoid of
streams. The first result of his pro-
gress is to force the enemy opposing
the Tenth and Fifth French armies,
exhausted by fruitless counter-at-
tacks, to begin a backward movement
which is eventually bound to extend
to the front before Rethel This will
open to the Fourth army a double
passage of the Aisne and Ardennes
canal.
The importance the enemy attached
to stopping the progress up the Disc
may be gathered from the fact that
