Washington, April 16.-''we con-

ecution of those responsible for SELL

and especially we condemn those can
ners who were guilty of supplying

Thus does a belated report of the

Their arraign the conduct of that de-
partment by Secretary Baker during
the conflict. 1t brings out the fol-
lowing facts:
In 1918 the United States Food
Administration instructed the sal
mon canning industry to preserve
certain percentage of their pack. In
this it developed that a large per-
centage of spoiled fish was found.
Therefore, the entire lot was gone
overs so that the spoiled lot might be
returned. There were approximately
1,195,000 cases of salmon, which,
valued at $40 per case, amounted
to $S,49O,1SO. The report says:
The course of action upon the part
of the War Department in connection
with the purchase of the 1918 pack
of salmon and the contract entered
into with the packers with reference
to its return would indicate gross
fraud upon the part of the packers
and pathetic tenderness upon. the
part of the officials of the War De-

to defraud. It is inexcusable even

CLAIM AMERICA OWES FRANCE

Following the publication in a
French paper some time ago of the
claim that the United States had new
er paid back the money borrowed
from France at the time of the war
of the Revolution, the matter was
brought up in the senate. Senator
Gaudin de Villaine stated that Louis
XVI had lent to America 100000
900 francs, which at three per cent
interest would now amount to 81
000, 100000 francs-enough to pay
all that France owes to the United
States and England. Other senators
took the ground that the deb had
been paid and uttered a warning that
such claims might disturb the cor
dial relations between the two coun-
tries. The treasury at Washington
the matter a year ago

of the sum, the last instaiment be-
ing paid in 1915. The total amount
borrowed from France, it was said,
was $f.225,5O0.
