AMERICA TO CONTINUE
SAVING FOR SIX MONTHS

Six months must pass before
Europe emerges from her present
food difficulties and before the Unit
ed States can relax in saving food for
the less fortunate peoples across the
seas, says a cablegram from Herbert
Hoover, food director, received by
w. X. Newell, state food administra-
tor. The cablegram was forwarded
from Washington by Acting Director
Rickard.
"Will you convey Christmas greet
ings to all our staff, also to state and
county administrators? says the
message From this side no one can
but appreciate the great contribu-
tion to winning the war that the per
feet teamwork and the devotion OF
the food administration has m Ale
possible.
Europe will be another six ,lonths
in recovering from its main food diff
ficulties, and thus some task yet reG
mains before us.
That America stid has several laps
to go before She has saved the 90
5000 tons OF food promised Europe
is shown hg the message and by post
ers from the Washington headquar-
ters, just received by Mr.. Newell
Lincoln and Wilson are quoted i'll
1000 posters, which will be hung in
railway stations and postoffices.
while another bunch of posters is to
remind those who eat in public of
their food obligations.
with malice toward none and
with charity toward ALL let us strive
to bind up the Nations wounds and
to do all which may achieve and
cherish a Just and lasting peace,
says quotation from the Gettys-
burg speech.
Hunger does not breed reform
il breeds Madness" President Wilson
is quoted as having said.

The Flight From Coast to Coast.
 (New York World !

That the ranscontinental flight calls not for the present type of heavy army machines but for big multi-m otored planes; that a straight highway 100 feet wide from coast to coast would solve all the problems of regular and emergency landings en route; that the alternative to this highway would be good landing fields 200 miles apart, with emergency fields within gliding distance 10 miles apart-these are a few of the practical suggestions com ing out of the aeropane race be- tween New York and San Francisco
 Major Spatz's proposition that regular aerial routes across the country should be mapped out was anticipated oft1- cially months ago. These routes are

PETROGRAD CANNOT
 ESCAPE CAPTURE
SOViets Being Forced Back on
 Four Sides

London, Oct. 16.-Forced back by the onsaughts of enemies on four fronts, the armies of the Soviet gov ernment of Russia appear to be facing a period pregnant with disaster. General Denikine's Cossacks, from the south; Polish forces from the west; northwestern Russian legionS, on the northwest, and northern Russian troops from the north, have during the last few days forged ahead until it seems the BOlshevik armies are be- tween the upper and neither mill stones.
 Petrograd is doomed to capture, in the opinion of observers, General Yudenitch being at Gatchina, only 25 miles south of the former Russian capital. In the extreme north, the northern Russian army has broken the resistance of the BOlsheviki ac- cOrding to reports, and are pursuing the enemy towards Omega, a village about | 50 miles west of Archangel. Further to the south it has forced its way far down along the DVina river. Polish forces have captured koVno, on the extreme northern end of their line. Denikine's men have driven a giant wedge into central Russia as far as Orel and are thought to be on their way toward Tula an important rail- way center that is considered the key to Moscow. East of the Urals is Ad- miral Kolchak's army, but it is seem- ingly too far away to enter into con- sideratiOn as a vital factor in the situation which is developing in Rus sia proper. Generals Denikine and Yudenitch and Admiral Kolchak are said to be operating in close CO., ordination.
 West of General Denikine's army are forces of Ukrainians who, while
 supposed to be hostile to the Bel
 sheviki have declared war on Deni- l kline because of alleged atrocities per petrated by the latters soldiers on 1 their advance toward Moscow. Re i ports have been received, however, that part of the Ukrainian army has | joined Denikine, having been assured
 that the latter will wrest eastern Ga ! Iicia and the province of Chelm from l Poland.
 l Advices from Russia state that Col.
 Avaloff- Bermondt, whose sudden at l tack on Riga last week caused a sen- l sation, has declared he began the | campaign only for the purpose of | securing the Duna river front against 1 Moscow" This front is between the
 sectors held by General Yudenitch and the Polish army. So far as known, fighting is still in progress in Riga but the exact situation there is not known Germano-Russian troops under command of Col AValoff- Ser mOnda, however, seem to have gained ground north of Riga, having cap tured the town of Dunamunde, ac- cOrding to report.

THE PRESIDENTS ILLNESS.

Speculation concerning the condi- |ion of President Wilson is still rife bout the country and, despite several lo-called authoritative statements as Io his actual physical and mental be- gng, the general public has no real, sndeniable, gossip killing bulletin Rpon its Chief Executive. It is cer- Hain that he is very sick, has prob Ebly suffered from d severe nervous breakdown which affected his mind s well as his body. We do not mean 6o insinuate that the President has 8ost his reason, temporarily or per-
 hanently. But we do feel that he is undergoing a period of great strain ! nd that his overworked brain cells ] Ire not functioning with their custo- 8lary clarity. It is common enough, #1is condition, in the life of any man &7ho is a leader and who has enough 3ncerity in his makeup to take the Expressions and feelings of those ' bout him seriously to heart.
 x Gossip will make his case worse nan it actually is, such is the history &f gossip, and it would be well if Br. Grayson made public a lengthy &Iatement giving the actual details.
 T he public has a right to know and 7 he statement would kill the gossip.

Getting the Dishonest Milllman.
(Waterbury Republican,


 Thomas Holt, state dairy commits sioner, is continuing his valuable campaign against the milkmen who water their milk He gave a. hearing in Hartford Saturday to some 70 ot the dealers accused of resortlng to the pump to increase the bulk Of thelr milk, and as a result, warrants Will be served upon a number of them
 This crusade against watering milk is to the great interest of the pubic. If is impossible for the average con- sumner to tell whether or not the milk he gets has been watered, if the wa tering is not carried too far. He IS dependent upon the activity or the milk commissioner to protect hlm against this sort of theft. 1t IS good to know that the commissioner Is active.
 Watering milk is not only stealing money from the consumers pocket if is also endangering the life and health of his family, especially the babies of the family. The food value of the milk is reduced by watering and often impurities are introduced into it by the process. A high infant mortality is present in districts where the milk is watered Commissioner Holt deserves commendation for hls activity.

Foolish Talk From Producers.
(NeW York Sun.

We read that it is announced by the master bakers of this state, now in convention in Syrac cuse, that the five cent loaf is gone forever;' that even if flour should be cheaper labor will keep bread up.
 If producers generally were to take the attitude that old prices are gone forever" then the members of the in dustrial conference might IS well pack up and leave Washington at once perhaps pausing only to adopt Professor Irving Fishers theory of a mercurial dollar which should rise or fall as values moved.
 The prevalent trouble with business men who say that the present prices are here to stay is that so long as they are doing nicely themselves they are content with tho situation. But there will be no national happiness or content until fall in prices brings back 8 decent living to the people who are neither business men with easily adjustable prices nor organized opera tives with tyrannical demands.
 Perhaps we shall not see hVe cent loaf again. vet it is not only wrong but dangerous tc suggest that the cost of bread, which is of course only one of g. hundred items of daily ex- perse, will not fall No one industry can expect to see it's own pr:ces kept up and it's neighbors put down.
 If the baker could say that he hoped to lower his price to nine cents and then to eight--and did som ething to prove his sincerity, and If the butcher and the candestick maker followed suit. they would aid not only the peo- pie with small and fixed salaries but also themselves, by bringing down bit by bit the false structure or prices which stands in the way of personal

In this locality. They were sent to Plainville from Mineola at the time of the Welcome Home celebration there and remained in that town about four days. Several of the residents were passengers in short flights with them. It was Kirbys machine that was forced to descend in a field near the Trunk bull home and was smashed. Poor gasoline was given as the rea- son for the failure to maintain flight. Neither of the aviators was serious ly injured, though they were forced to return to Mineola by train.
 The race in way, then, becomes an affair of personal consequence to several people hereabouts who met the two aviators and became friendly with them. They were described as "princes," both. Their death has brought before us more wildly the cost of such experiences. We knew them, honored them and therefore their accident is greater to us than if they had been any unknown flyers, simply paWns in the game of flight
 Meanwhile the flying parson, ' Lieut.. Maynard, promises to reach Mineola Friday on the return trip, which will probably give him the lead in the large field of fliers for the en- tire route. His luck continues and he is making knots' over the con- tinent

THE COMMON COUNCIL.

Last nights meeting of the Com Ii routine business was transacted, eemed to be given over to attempts procuring legislation of the more G ogressive sort. It seems that the len assembled are paying more at &ntion to the abstract needs and de- ands of the community than here 8fore and there can be naught but &tisfaction in their efforts.
 By an appeal to the public utilities 8,mmission, Councilman Gillin hopes
 remedy the grade crossing evil at &layton. He can do little more, 7sither can the council, which how ! CT is, ready to aid in every way 3)ssible in disposing of this menace the lives of the citizens of New fritain All will agree that the con- Etions there should have been reme- led, if only by the use of gates, long bfore this. Providing the council len take adequate measures to see hat their action is followed up and Imported before the utilities com 8ission, we believe that the trouble ay be eliminated. It is no time to ! lit now, though, the city must keep
 ter it.
 Alderman Curtis took upon his &loulders the affairs of the Merchant #arine men in town and advocated cir worthy cause most heartily #ith the result that they will be #ven the full measure of recognition
