While rumors that the Germans
had launched the expected drive on
the West front, and reports from
Washington that the income and ex-
cess profits taxes would almost GER
tainly be increased during the pres
ent session of Congress, exerted an
unfavorable influence on the stock
market, the action of the Director
General in removing all railway
presidents appeared to be chiefly re-
sponsible for yesterdays rather
sharp decline in prices. 1t was not a
positive influence, because no one
professed to know whether this
drastic step would have a favorable
or an unfavorable effect on values.
But the action came so much as a
surprise that it brought home to
traders the fact that we are passing
through a period Of extreme uncer-
tainty, during which sweeping ad-
justments may be expected from any
quarter at any time. That tended to
unsettle sentiment and as a result
many operators sold heavily.

anticipated, it was not unexpected
in railway circles. AS was pointed
out in these columns a week or ten
days ago, railroad presidents were in
a very embarrassing position. AS
corporate heads they were RESPONSE
BILE to their boards Of directors, while
as operating officials they were ex-
pected to look solely to the interests
of the government. They were fire.
quently under pressure from the one
side to do one thing, while the nation
al welfare demanded that they do the
opposite. Naturally such a position
was untenable, for they could serve
neither party whole heartedly. There
fore it was imperative, both from the
standpoint of the government and
the railroads, that they be divorced
from the one or the other interest.
Only in that way could the transpor-
tation system be perfectly unified.
The chief point of contention re-
lates to salaries. There is mania
for price fixing just now, and appar-
emily is it to be extended to cover the
price for railway brains. To name
an arbitrary wage, as is proposed,
might prove to be a serious mistake
Who shall say what brains are really
worth? One man may be receiving
100000 year for handling the af-
fairs Of a railroad in mediocre
fashion; another may be getting
twice that because, through foresight
and sheer ability, he has effected
economies in operation and built up
business until his road pays big
profits. Now, according to Washing
ton dispatches, both are to be put on
the same wage footing. And unless
an appeal be made on patriotic
grounds it is likely that some of the
leading executives, whose services
would be extremely valuable, if not
indispensable, at this time, will seek
to market their services elsewhere,
which they probably could do with
ease and profit.

however, and with their descriptions
spread broadcast 1t is not believed they
can 60 far without recapture.
It now seems, almost certain that the
two convicts were the ones who took
the Ford car belonging to Robert
Englehardt 1t also seems that the men
must have had outside help for they
apparently knew just where the car
was and just what kind of lock it
had. bringing with them the proper
tools fr opening it. Investigations
are being conducted here in an effort
to discover who might have helped the
men to escape.
1t was reported by passersby that
a Ford had overturned at the west aZld
Of Santa Fe avenue late Friday night
but that the two occupants were not
injured and had righted the machine
and driven off again in a hurry. These
men are believed to have been the es-
capped prisoners and it is believed they
headed for keokuk and thence down
into Missouri. The hunt Is still on
with unabated zeal.

stamp drive which will be put on over
the entire United States during tn'
week between June % and 2S. Inc
campaign will eliminate on the latter
date in national war savings day. Inc
day has been set aside by proclamation
Of President Wilson.
It is intended that as result OF the
drive the nations quota of $2,ooo.ooo'
600 in war savings stamps shall De
pledged and that the cash sales shall
be brought up to the quota required by
the end of June.
Many counties in the state will not
have to rely upon the nation wide drive
in order to reach their quota. The re-
cent drive in the state put many coun-
ties over the top and many more with
in easy distance Of the goal. In these
counties the week will be observed but
the strenuous campaign necessary In
other counties will not have to be put
on.
Homer A. Miller, state director Oh
the Iowa war savings committee. has
called a meeting of the chairmen OF
counties where the sale Of stamps is
tagging. They will meet in Des Moines
today. At this time the plans for the
drive as It affects Iowa
will be explained and plans will be laid
for the June drive.
Plans for the government drive are
most comprehensive. They provide for
an intensive campaign which termi-
mates on the closing day OF the drive In
meetings in every voting place and
school district in each county. At these
pledges are to be secured for
stamp purchases from those in attend

|. Burlington, June 5.-The following
message from Food Director Hoover
has been transmitted by state Director
Deems to all county food administrators
in the state:
LAS the control Of sugar allotted to
manufacturers, will, as far as we can
see, continue thruout the war, it is de-
srable that you announce this fact and
give it the widest possible publicity. at
the same time making 1t known that all
manufacturers Of less essential food
products using sugar must file their
required statements with you by June
10, covering sugar used, sugar on hand
and their requirements, and showing
their present situation that we may
know they are conforming to our rules
IF their sugar on hand, plus the
amount used to date, is more than
so per cent Of the amount used by
them from January to July, 1911 such
excess must be turned over to the FOOD
administrator for his disposition.
Please make it known that unless
these reports are filed with you by June
10. no sugar will be allotted for the
balance of 1918 to the manufacturers
failing to make such returns.
I'm other words II any manufacturer
has in stock large amount OF sugar
and thinks thereby that he has no oc-
cas;on to apply to the food administra-
ton and does not take cogniZance OF
the rules he will suffer the penalty for
his failure to make report and is likely
to be proceeded against as a boarder
in the meantime"
1t Is apparent that it will be neces-
sary for the organization of the food
administration for Iowa to set itself
diligently to the task OF informing
manufacturers of sugar products OF the
situation which confronts them and
you are urgently requested to get into
the hands of each of them the rule as
laid down by Mr.. Hoover in his mes
SAGE.
The manufacturers who use sugar
must have in the hands Of w. I. NC
Elroy, OF Ottumwa, before June 10,
report of the sugar used by them, OF
the sugar they have on hand and the
sugar they require during july. August
and September. based on the allotment
prescribed in the order issued In April
and covering the months Of May and
June.
Those who fail to arrange for licences
will get no sugar.

scriptions trom women In the districts
represented are:
Proud of Iowa.

Mrs. Marsh in her report, sent from
the state headquarters in this city,
says:
II am proud OF. the women Of Iowa
and especially Of those who. amid
many difficulties, so courageously went
ahead with their organization and
reaped the splendid results, as shown
in this report. You will be interested
to know:
THAT IN two counties the entire
quota was subscribed by the women
alone. after which the amount was
doubled and in one county quadrupled
by the men.
I'm two counties the largest inds-
v'd,lal subscribers were women takint;
out $4,000 and $4,000 in liberty bonds.
I'm several towns the women sub
scribed three times the quota.
I'm a few instances where women
were requested not to sell bonds, they
opened headquarters and notified each
woman who purchased bond to regis
ter, and in this way the committee was
enabled to obtain an accurate report.
"By the fact that the large number
OF subscribers in Iowa, is due to the
activity of the woman's committee.
I'm my opinion, the entire quota for
Iowa could have been sold by the
women alone, if it had been necessary,
as they have proven themselves able
statesmen"
