ARMENlANS LOYAL TO ALLIES
None of the Conquered Peoples Have Shown More Devotion to Cause
 of Liberty Than They.

It has been the Armenians who have been most constant in their loyalty to the allies, and eight months ago, from the city of Van, 13O of them went forth to take up positions which had been vacated by Russians.
 After the Turks took ErZerum last February they swept on against the national armies of the Armenians and Georgians through to Tabriz in north western Persia, threatening the south ern Caspian ports and wiping out all Armenians they met, Maynard Owen Williams writes in Asia Magazine. They boasted that they would keep on until they met the Russian army, then nonexistent. The fight by the Armen- ians and Georgians, lacking allied sup port, became more hopeless. The Georgians bravely declared their in dependence last May; but hardly a month later 32 Georgian and Armenian delegates in Constantinople were ut terly unable to do anything but ac- cede to the Turkish demands that they withdraw their troops. It is evident that the Georgians are now complete ly dominated.

AVERAGE CROPS WILL. KEEP FOOD
 PRICES SOARING
People Are Urged To Use Care In Preventing Food
 Wastage.

A few weeks ago the American people were expecting crops beating g all previous records. The wheat crop In particular was to mount up to 1 200,0O0.0o0 bushels or more. But much damage has been done, and wheat will probably drop below a billion bushels. Scarce food was what started advance of all kinds of prices, and plentiful food is need ed to bring prices down.
 The latest figures indicate about an average cereal crop. That is no; enough. as Europe's productive power is not restored. As long as the food supply Is short or only barely sufficient. spectators will always be manipulating prices. There needs to be reserve of food so that corner ing shall be discouraged, and pro- hteers shall not be able to scare the public into paying exorbitant prices
 The people must stu think of fooS conservation. During the war food economy talk was printed in every newspaper. shouted at the people from every billboard. Since the arm istice people are slipping back i1 their old careless ways. Probably al the present time great food resources are being wasted in garbage and otherwise.
 Tho more food is wasted the higher t costs. Every home should continue the policy of food conservation, and keep up all the thrifty habits taken up through the war. The old days of lavish resources are not likely tC return.
 Many men who worked on farms as boys will recollect how the thrifty old timers would make them rake ir every corner of the hayfleld, and how their gleanings would collect a big heap of scatterings that thriftles: workers would leave behind. Leaky carts and careless handling waste great quantities of grain. Careful economical harvesting will be need ed to pull the world through it's pres cnt pinch.

CHIEF 0FFLEY
 QUITS NEW YORK FEDERAL SERVICE

Washington, Aug. 15. - William
 NJ. Off1ey, Chief of the Department of
 Justice Investigation Bureau in New
 York, has voluntarily resigned, it was
 stated at the Department of Justice
 last night. His place will be filled by
 Joseph R. Baker, assistant in the bu-
 reau.
 MT. Of1ey, who has been in Wash
 ington for a few days, departed las.
 night for New York. He will accept
 a business position offered him. It
 was said at the department his resig-
 nation, has been accepted with deep
 regret.
 Chief Offley has been in charge of the local bureau for seven years, and has been assisted by his successor, MT. Baker, for the last five years. During the exposures of German activities in this country both before and after the United States entered the war, Mir. Off1ey and his assistants were large factors in bringing about the arrest and conviction of Germans and German-Am ericans in the en- ploy of the late Imperial German Government. MT. Offley personally conducted the inv vesti gat ton into the activities of Gustav Stah1, whose perjured testi- mony regarding the sinking of the Lusitania was brought to light Capt. Hans Tauscher was finally connected with the Welland Canal plot by Off ley, as were numerous other German agents.
 When merchant vessels were being blown up by time-bombs put in their 1 cargoes or attached to rudders in this harbor before the United States en- tered the war, M. Offley was called upon to run down the culpritS. After months of hard work the plot was traced to Franz Rintelen, who with eight others were convicted in the Federal District Court and sentenced to serve eighteen months in the Atlanta Penitentiary. Other like crimes were traced to Rintelen who in all was sentenced to three and one-ha1f years.
 MT. Offley's bureau was considered the most important of it's kind in the country and many of his men ha, often been called upon to assist in investigations in other parts of the cenntry-

CARELESSNESS
 CAUSED C2 ID
 SINK IN SOUND

CareIessness caused the sinking of the United States submarine G2 in Long Island Sound off Pleasure Beach, Conn.,, recently in the opin- ion of Thomas A. Edison, renowned inventor, who was in Hartford yester- day with Henry Ford, John Bur roughs, the naturalist, and others.
 somebody slipped a cog there, I guess" said MT. Edison, t'becausa submarines have been brought to such a stage of perfection now that they ought to be as safe as surface vessels. With many men in the crew, there is always the possibility that some one of them may make a mis- take fatal to all of them, but that is no reflection on the submarine"
 Asked if he was working on any invention when the war ended to combat more successfully the Ger man submarine warfare, the genius smiled and nodded in the affirmative ''But the armistice beat us to it. he said. He did not doubt that, if the war had continued, America would have produced a device that would have made German undersea activi- ties futile. Although he did not care to enter any detailed discussion of such inventions, he intimated that eff forts in that direction have not been abandoned even now. It is known that experiments were made during the war with detecting devices con- ceived by him.
 Three lives were lost in the sink ing of the submarine about which MT. Edison was questioned, and six others of the crew were rescued by the coast guard cutter Acushnet which was accompanying the G-2 while the latter was conducting ex- periments with depth bombs.
 Simon Lake, submarine inventor, advanced the theory a week ago that a premature explosion of depth bomb may have been responsible for the tragedy.
 A naval board of inquiry consisting of Captain J. c. Leonard, Commander R. c. Grady, Lieutenant-Comma G. P. Brown, with Lieutenant-Con- mander P. F. Foster as judge advo- cate, is making an investigation of the affair.

BILL PROVIDES
 HIGHER WAGES
 POSTAL MEN

A bill known as $. J. R., No 84, has been introduced in the U. s. Sem ate. to provide for increa sed com pensation for all postal employees.
 The intention of this measure is to offer temporary relief to the pos tai employees until such time as the Congres =ioual Commission, which is nov investigating salaries in the P. O. Dept, shall make it's report, as legislation resulting from the efforts of the Commission can hardly be ef- fected before July, 1920.
 The bill, $. J. R. No. S4, has been referred to the Committee on Post offices and Post Roads, and it's passage or rejection will be effect ed to q great extent by editorial com ment in the daily press. We are requesting, therefore, on behalf of the Letter Carriers of Bridgeport, that you assist us in the passage of this bill through your editorial columns.
 A letter carrier receives 5000 for his first year, and an additional hun dred each year until he reaches ST. 800, and as the average weekly earn inEs or $1,O00 per year is about S19.Go, we believe that the public would be willing to have our pay in creased. Letter carriers receive no pension and pay for their own uni form and shoes, which amounts to a very considerable amount. They re ceive no pay when absent through illness, and the nature of their en- ployment results in many cases of absence without pay. They are not interested in the large amounts re- ceived by men in other lines of work, neither do they claim that they are abused or discriminated against Their claim is simply t1lis-conditions are such that the present salary is totally inadequate, and while they demand nothing, they respectfully re- quest that salaries be adjusted to meet the present conditions.

FOOD SHORTAGE
 STILL CAUSING
 GERMAN RIOTS

Coblence. July .---(Correspond- ence of The Associated Press)- Throughout Germany there has been a renewal recently of clashes between troops of Gustav Noske, Secretary of Military Affairs. and civilians but just what has caused the disturbances Is not clear in dispatches published in German newspapers. American army officers, however, believe 1t quite pos sible that the manifestations are due to the food shortage, the relocation Of Noske troops and the subsequent appearance of strange troops in many cities.
 In Ce1le, Hanover, there has been trouble for more than a week, at times the manifestations amounting almost to riots over the appearance Of a Jaeger battalion which arrived recently from the eastern front. The citizens contended that this battalion had eaten too much of the city's food supply. In HeiIbronn, Wuerttem- burg, individual soldiers have been atta and beaten by civilians at night and their insignia stolen. Dfs- turbances between Insterburg, West Prussia citizens and soldiers of the First Jaeger gu Pferde regiment has r reached such a state that the civil authorities have made demands upon the government that the troops be moved to another district.
 From information in the hands of the officers at headquarters of the American forces in Germany it is be- Heved that, while the majority of the German people are now Loyalty SUD- porting the government troops, there is an energetic minority which has been increasing in bitterness recently against the Noske troops wherever they have appeared in various parts of Germany.

NEW CAPTURE
 IN QUEST OF
 RED ACITATORS

New York, Aug. 15.-Assistant Dis trict Attorney Rorke last night an. ncunced the arrest in Detroit of Carl Paivo. charged with criminal anarchy in the general prosecution of advo- cates of anarchy and revolution under way before Justice Weeks at the extra ordinary term of the Su- preme Court appointed by Governor Smith.
 ''Paivo. I am advised by wire to- day" said Mir. Rorke, was arrested at the instigation of Detective Cooper Of this office and is on his way to New York in the custody of Cooper. The two are due here tomorrow af- ternoon. Paive is under indictmen, by the special grand jury Impanelled yesterday charged with criminal an archy.'

Itey was arraigned yesterday in the liar lem police court and held on a charge of carrying q concealed weapon.
 The prosecution is entirely satis- fled with the progress we thus far have made, and we believe the city and country will be rid of a good many undesirable trouble makers by the time we have completed our work" said Mir. Ro-IIe. While the extraordinary grand jury fnvestigat- ing advocates of anarchy today took a recess until September, and Justice Weeks went away for a brief vaca- ton. this office will continue its work. I believe what we are doing has checked direct action propa- ganda in this country
 Two lawyers, Walter L. Nel1es of the National Civil Liberties Bureau, and Henry l.. Slobodin, former secre- tary of the Socialist Party of New York County. appeared al the Dis trict Attorneys office yesterday, say ing that they were attorneys for Gustave A1onen. MT. Nelles finally qualified by obtaining from Alonen written authority to represent him.
 Samuel Berger, assistant attorney general, associated with Attorney General Newton in Investigating se- ditous activity in connection with the work of the Lusk Legislative Com nittee, said that an application would be made Monday to Justice McAvoy to reopen the matter of the can cellation of certificate of incorpora ton of the Rand School of Sociai Science. Justice McAvoy previously dismissed the proceeding, without prejudice to the state.
