PARIS, Jan. -. (By mail. )-The
4 French government has decided to in
stall an airp!ane service to feed in

Of Northern France until railways de-
stroyed by the Germans in their re-
treat can he restored.
With 200 airplanes at least 200. 900
people Of the stricken provinces can
be fed daily it is believed this NUM-
Der of planes could carry 100000
pounds of floor. 10000 pounds OF su-
pounds of vegetables and 10000
pounds of condensed food.
While this will be the most gigantic
scale on which airplanes have been
used for feeding country yet the
system is not entirely new.
During the war IL was successfully
used by the British in carrying food

sive on the Piave. Lord Cavan, in
charge of the 3rd army, fearing that
after his detachments got across the
river, the bridges might be blown up
and the troops cut off from supplies,
arranged to feed them by airplanes.
In this case it was planned to drop
the packages of food by means of small. /
let loose from the air /
planes Although every preparation
was made to this end, the English and
Italians were fortunately able to keep +
the bridge across the Piave and the
lines of communication open.
For the airplanes that will be me-
cessary for the new service for feed

Lansing.
Both houses of the legislature now
have gotten down to regular business.
The senate got started first, the house
being delayed several days while
Speaker Read wrestled with the prob
lem of appointments on the 63 house
committees. The senate passed the
first bill, after considering it in com
mittee of the whole and on third read
ing. IL is the measure designed to
raise the pay of Legislative employees.
The number of employees has been re-
duced so that the added pay could be
allowed without particularly increas-
ing the states expense. The senate
also passed on to third reading the
proposed constitutional amendment to
provide for road bonds up to S50,000,-
900. 1t is expected that this resolu-
nearly all other matters so that, if
passed as anticipated, 1t can go be-
fore the people at the election in April.
Senate committees have decided
that they will have no "junkets" to
state institutions .his year. Many
legislatures have discussed the idea
Of cutting out these committee trips,
