MEAT EATING DECLINES
8 PER CENT In 20 YEARS

The American people have changed
their diet and are eating less meat
than they were twenty years ago,
the Department of Agriculture an
nounced yesterday.
Whether it is because of the in
creased cost of meats or because
peoples tastes have changed, the
fact remains that the annual con-
sumption of meat is 8 per cent
less than it was in 1900. The de-
partment found that the average
cost of food per man per day was
46 cents. The average amount of
grain products consumed has de-
creased about IL per cent. People
are eating more milk. butter and
cheese than they were two decades
ago, however.

FIRST LEAGUE !
CALLTO COME
FROM WILSON
President Will Summon the
Council to Meet In Paris
Friday Morning.
AMERICA NOT PRESENT
Allies to Decide Boundaries
Of Saar Valley While
u. S. Looks On.

President Wilson. acting entirely
in an unofficial capacity. will issue
from the White House. probably to-
day. a call for the first meeting Of
the council of the league Of nations.
The call will take the form Of a
cable, sent through the State Depart
ment, to U. s. Ambassadors and Min
listers in those countries whose repre-
sentatives yesterday. at Paris. signed
the minutes recording the ratification
Of the treaty Of Versailles. 1t will IN
form them that the council Of the
league will meet in Paris next Friday
morning. and request the presence Of
delegates at this session.
In accordance with the terms Of the
peace treaty. the Presidents cable
will be delivered to the foreign Offices
of Great Britain. France. Italy, ia
pan, Belgium. Brazil. Greece and
Spain. They are the treaty sigma
tories chosen to send delegates to
comprise the council
To BE Hurried Session.
Because of the lack Of time. it is
believed here. the first meeting of
the council will be a hurried affair.
and that the majority of nations who
make up that body will instruct their
resident ministers or ambassadors in
Paris to represent them at the ses-
sion.
The council will have but one big
task before it when it sits down to
business. it was said here yesterday
This will be the naming of the
Saar Valley boundary commission.
and will be the only thing of ma
jor Importance the council will
have to do.
There are prospects, however. of
other "doings." The council. for
instance. will have to decide when
and where 1t will hold its next
meeting: and Belgium is preparing
to renew its claims that Brussels
be chosen. temporarily at least. as
the seat of the league. The treaty
provides for Geneva. but the coun-
ell may use it's discretion in nam
ing another meeting place.
Wilson Picked Geneva.
1t was due entirely to the ef-
forts OF President Wilson that Ge-
neva was selected as the seat of
the league. The President believed
some city. centrally located. but
untouched by the fire and hatreds
of war. should be, chosen. and he
finally won the support of Great
Britain and France for Geneva.

The national balloon race scheduled to
start from Birmingham. Ala, this
month and the international contest
for balloonists to start from the same
city in October are expected by Aero
Club officials in charge of the races

ed upon the greater gas capacity of the
balloons and lessons of construction
learned in the war.
The national event, due to start
