Former Food Administrator Of Iowa
Announces His Candidacy for
Republican Nomination
Next Year.
CAMPAIGN ON FITNESS
Would Treat the Office as Big Job
and Not Merely as an Honor
airy Political Po-
sition.

BURLINGTON, June 11.-J. F.
Deems, for the past two years United
States food administrator for Iowa,
Is now definitely in the race for gov
ernor OF the state.
This announcement was made when
he sent out number of letters in
answer to inquiries he has received
from various parts of the state, es-
pecially since the Deems-for-governor
boom" was launched at Ottumwa sew
eral months ago. While still serving
as federal food administrator the
Burlington man felt that he could
not discuss politics nor make def
mite announcement as to his possible
candidacy.
His letters, however, make 1t clear
that his name will be presented to
the republican voters Of the state
before the June. 1920, primaries.
Requests Are Statewide.
In his letter, Mr.. Deems says that
since his duties as United States food
administrator ended, and, owing to
the opportunity the food work gave
to study his business methods, he
has received large number OF let
tiers from all parts of the state urging
him to allow his name to go before
the people as candidate for gov
ernor in 1920.
ITO say that these letters did not
impress me would be to say l was
less than human" says Mr.. Deems in
his letter He continues:
much Of my active business life
has been spent in Iowa, and have
always been deeply impressed by her
possibilities and keenly interested in
her development and prosperity.
Says He Knows Iowa.
my close connection with her re-
sources and institutions during the
past two years has given me very
intimate knowledge of those posi-
bilities and conditions, as well as the
seeming necessity for simpler and
more direct and economical methods
of conducting the ordinary business
or executive affairs Of the state.
These observations, in addition to
being urged as mentioned above, as
well as being ever mindful of the
duty one owes the state, have i'm
PEELED me to offer to the state, as
governor, the very best that is in
me as the result Of large and varied
experience in business and executive
life, the enjoyment of perfect health,
and in infinite capacity and love for
just plain, hard work"
Expects to Win on Qualifications.
1t has been known for some time
that Mr.. Deems has been in recep-
tive attitude toward the suggestions
that he be a candidate, but he has
not hitherto given any real hint of
his decision. A man close to him.
but not of his political household.
says that Mr.. Deems has been taking
a quiet survey of the state and makes
his decision after he is convinced
that he will win.
Il shall be candidate on the rec
ord of my life and work" said Mr..
Deems when asked to outline his
campaign plans, land If the people
of Iowa want to place me in the
executive office at the capitol l shall
give all the executive ability I have
to their service. l suppose the people
will look at all of the candidates and

Those who are urging Mr.. Deems
candidacy point to his record and
the fact that he, through energy and
hard work, climbed the ladder of
success in the field OF mechanics.
He went to work at the age Of
eleven years to help support

Later, he learned the machinist
trade, after working his way through
college. He rose from machinist

to be superintendent Of motive pow

later superintendent of all the rolling
stock and shops OF the New York Cen
trail lines with 10000 miles of rail-
road.
Then he resigned and came back
to Des Moines county to be
real farmer, few miles west Of Bur
lington, on a farm he had purchased
sixteen years ago.

M 'ADOO TO STIR UP
 LOAN IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, April 19.-W. c. Mo Adoo. who has been resting in Califor- nia since he gave up his dual position as secretary of the treasury and di- rector general of railroads, arrived in New York city today to help campaign for the Victory Liberty loan.
 McAdoo said that he addressed 20 loan meetings on his trip across the continent, and is scheduled to address two big audiences here. In addition, he will take an active part in the sell ing campaign in the New York federal reserve district.
 At every place at which I spoke, D said MT. McAdoo, q found the greatest enthusiasm for the loan, and I have not the slightest doubt of it's triumph ant success. 1 am a firm believer in the patriotism of the American people and l do not believe that the patriot ism of the American people is put on and off like a coat.
 From an investment point of view, the loan is most attractive one, and I do not see how anyone who has any money can afford to neglect the op- portunity to subscribe"
 MT. McAdoo said that his three months rest near Santa Barbara had restored him to full health and vigor
 Elaborate preparations for opening the Victory loan campaign were com pleted tonight with the announcement that actual note selling would begin shortly after Sunday midnight at the Argonne forest in Times Square, a miniature reproduction of the famous American fighting sector, where Gov ernor Smith, after making an address will purchase the first Victory note.

ARMY OFFICIALS ARESTRONCFOR
 MILITARY TRIAL

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Hearings on the subject of war time admins tration of military justice probably will be concluded next week, Chairman Gregory of the committee of the Amer ican Bar association announced today Major General Clarence Edwards who commanded the 26th (New England national guard division); Colonel Sed- wick Rice, commandant of the army disciplinary barracks at Fort Leaven- worth; Lieutenant Colonel Samuel T. Ansel, former acting judge advocate general, and Colonel John Wigmore are still to appear.
 Colonel Ansell will present his views Monday afternoon. Colonel Ansell has not indicated his plans, further than to advise the committee that he was pre- pairing a written statement
 Three lawyers, who either are now or were officers of the army during the war period, gave their views today, one of them, Major George J. Denis of Los Angeles, California, having been for a considerable time judge advocate of the advance section service Of SUD- ply in France, with jurisdiction over the legal proceedings affecting about 235, 900 men.
 None of these officers indicated any 1 sympathy with the proposal to vest | final jurisdiction over army disciplin- 1 ary action, through courtmartial in the l judge advocate general or an appellate | court agency in his office. Majors 1 Stone and Denis vigorously opposed ] such a course and defended the ex- 1 isting system.
 There is nothing the matter with the courtmatial system" said Major Denis. "The trouble lies in the admin 1stration. Its vice is ignorance of the articles of war on the part of members of the court, almost all of whom art new officers. These officers from civi
 life seemed to take no interest in the
 administration of military law. They
 semed to feel it undignified to sit or 1 the courts. The regular officers in

BRITISH AND FRENCH DOUBT J. $. SINCERITY

PARIS, April 1s-By the. Asso- ciated Press)-Dr. ,Fridtjof Nansen, head of the commission to feed Russia, is having difficulty ill getting in touch with Nikalai Lenine, Russian bol- shevil1i premier, concerning the re- victulating of Russia on condition that the bolsheviki cease hostility. The wireless service of the entente coun- tries apparently are not available and a messenger will be sent to Norway to communicate pr. Nansen's messages to Moscow. Consequently Lenines re- ply probably will not be available for several days.
 The French press is showing hos tile attitude towards the revictualing plan. One newspaper describes it as another Pronkipos and several charge that it is an attempt by Americans to ingratiate themselves, to obtain concessions and scout the suggestion of humane rather than political mo- tives.
 Although the American delegation has repeatedly stated that William . Bullitt and Lincoln Steffens were moi empowered to negotiate with the bol- 1 sheviki, when they recently visited Russia, the fact that they were ac- | companied by Captain W. w. Petit
 of the United States army lent sucl official coloring to the party that botl l the French and English newspaper.
 are inclined to regard the delegation 1 as official and credit the revictualins plan to it's report.

URGES FEW ROADS \
 PRIVATELY OWNED

SPOKANE, Wash. April 19-Organ- ization of 8 comparatively few pri- vately owned and operated railroad systems is advocated as his solution of the railroad problem by Walker D. Hines, director general of railroads, in a telegram to the Chronicle from Avery. Idaho, today. in response to an inquiry from the newspaper.
 He said he believed these roads should be so constituted as to obtain competition, each system representing a fair average of conditions, so that the basis of rates established would not result, as under the old system. in some roads being impoverished so that they cannot give adequate service to the public.
 ''The government should guarantee a reasonable return on these companies securities" the telegram continued land also give the companies the right to share in any profits that might be made in excess of these guaranteed returns. This participation in profits would preserve the highly important factor of privat initiative"

First Attempt Failure

LONDON, April 19-(By the Asso- ciated Press) The first attempt at a trans Atlantic aerial flight westward came to grief last night in it's first stage. Major J. C. F. Wood and Cap tain c. c. .Wyllie, his navigator, had almost reached the Irish coast off Holyhead, in flight from East Church for Limerick, when engine trouble brought the Shamrock nose foremost into the sea, three miles from Holy head. Both men were rescued, while Lancaster Parker, flyingin a escorting machine, had narrow escape on land ing, his plane smashing against a shore wall
 The air ministry's night bulletin says weather conditions along the Atlantic coast course are decidly favorable at present for flight from west to east. The surface winds are much lighter over the whole route. They are ac- companied by fog and perhaps rain or snow, but it is declared, if it is pos sible to leave the airdrome, conditions are exceptionally favorable for a flight and for alighting in this country.

 Photographers to Help
 NEW YORK, April 19.-S. J. Konen- kamp, international president of the Commercial Photographers union of America, was urged to hasten the poll now being taken on a nation wide strike vote, in order that effective aid might be given immediately to striking telephone workers in New England, in a resolution adopted today by the ex- ecutive committee on district council No. 16.
 The strike contemplated is intended, it is said as protest against treat ment the workers have received from Postmaster General Burleson. They protested against the date the strike vote should be recorded being deferred from April 9 to May ,.
 Business ordinarily carried on by the telephone is being diverted to the teleg raphers, because of the telephone strike. and the telegraphers here object i to handling this business.
