COMPLETE AGREEMENT , All Short Line Roads to Come Under Provisions of 1 WASHINGTON, March 7. The ad ministration bill for the control of railroads during the war was prepar ed for final action hy congress when l the senate and house conferees today reached complete agreement on dif ferences in their respective measures. Under the conferees' final agreement which will. be presented in both bodies tomorrow and will be acted on first by the house, the period of government control of the railroads was limited to twenty -one months instead of the two ( year period of the house bill and the eighteen months' limit of the senate. The bill, as finally accepted, provides that the amount of taxes on railroad property to be levied in the various states shall not exceed the ratio on such nronertv for the year prior to the I government control of the railroads. The bill also provides that all short line railroads should come nnder the provisions of the act. Rate Making Dispute. The conferees settled their dispute over rate-making authority by giving the president power to Initiate rates but subject to review by the interstate commerce commission as provided in the senate bill and requiring the com mission to take into consideration the fact that the carriers are not in com petition and also the president's rec i ommendations 6 necessity for addi tional revenues. The compromise substitute for the i rate-making section drawn by Senator Robinson of Arkansas, follows: "That during the period of federal v' control whenever in his opinion the ' public interest requires, the president may initato rates, fares, charges, I classifications, and practices by filing ' the same with the Interstate commerce commission, which said rates, fares, charges, classifications, regulations and practices shall not be suspended by the commission pending final de , j termination, f ) j "Said rates shall be reasonable and I ISl Honey H Isiiflf and Tar ' u Liflf when in the FT Fl hI'I clutches of l La grippe. ! j It quickly stops the hard rough, j ea6es the pain and - j j tghtness in the chest, I helps the -wheezy fc I ' breathing. .

LIQUOR AND VICE TO BE WIPED OUT; i WASHINGTON, March $. Suspen sion of two federal district officials at Rock Island, 111., by the department of justice, was considered officially an indication of the determination of the , department to enforce strictly anti- liquor and vice regulations about army and navy camps. Field officers of the i department will be expected to take action on their own initiative to rem edy improper conditions, it was ex plained and not await prodding from tho department Hundreds of prosecution of liquor venders and persons violating the vice restrictions have been made, and re cent reports indicate that conditions about most camps are good. The prin cipal difficulties encountered in the clean-up movements were from city officials who refused In some cases to assist federal agents in enforcing the federal regulations. i The Hock Island situation became acute several weeks ago, soon after the ordnance training camp there was placed In tho class of camps sur rounded by liquor and vice barred zones. Agents of the department of justice visited Rock Island on receipt of complaints that saloons and Im moral houses continued In operation. Accordingly, the department took direct action to order saloons closed and vice conditions abated. District Attorney Knotls of the southern Illinois district, went to Rock Island today, according to depart ment of justice reports to request Fed eral Judge Humphreys to name a spe cial United States commissioner to ex pedlate the trial of violators of the liquor law. .no GOATS TO AID - THE FORESTERS .

FRANCE MAKING 1 BRAVHFFORTj Million More Acres of Wheat Sown Last Fall Than in 1918. PARIS, Jan. 25. (Correspondence! of the Associated Press.) France, without a "bumper" crop' of corn to fall back upon is marcing a bravo effort to increase the yield of other food stuffs and there arc now for the first time signs that the effort Is producing results. Nearly a million more acres of wheat were sown last fall than in 1916, according to recently compplcted statistics. With ordinary good luck this means nearly 20,000,000 bushels more of wheat Spring seeding this year may exceed that of 1917 by nearly tthe same extent which will bring the French wheat crop this year up to 40, 000,000 bushels more than that of last year. Tho bread card, taking effect January 29 was intended to save from food consumption the million bushels required for the extended seeding. M. Compere-Morel, commissary of agriculture, charged with the exten sion of seeding, has already divided 600,000 bushels of Manitoba wheat among farmers. He is confident im portant gains will be made in the crop of 1918.- The decision of the French food minister to issue cards regulating tho distribution of bread to 300 grammes (about 11 ounces) a day is causing much comment. Some criticize, others approve but the consensus of opinion may be summed up in tho good natur ed remark of a morning paper which says ''that for one man who dies of .starvation there are a hundred who succumb to .indigestion." Gonerally however, the press seem to adopt a very serious point of view of the innovation. The French are no toriously the greatest bread eaters in the world and much doubt is express ed as to the ration of a little over a half a pound per day being sufficient. France has another "Commissary of Agriculture," Monsieur Lo Rouzic, deputy from the department of Mor blhan, who iB sometimes called the "Potato dictator." He is charged by the minister of agriculture with direct supervision of planting with reference more especially to vegetables. He Is trying to increase the production of beans as well as potatoes, and is es pecially encouraging the planting of toplnambours, or Jerusalem arti- PUT CREAM IN NOSE AND STOP CATARRH Telia How To Open Clogced Nos trils and End Head-Colds.

Mr. Jones is in the United States navy and expects to be assigned to a submarine. "I don't see how two of this type of warship could fight each other, since by tho very nature of things they could not torpedo one another, which is their main method of fighting. How ever, they could both come to tho sur face and battle Avlth their deck guns, which tho larger aubmarines carry. But that would differ in no way from conflicts between torpedo boats and destroyers, and the outcomo would hang on a lucky shot to a great ex tent. "However, fighting is not the only excitement on board a submarine at least that is what I would, infer from practice cruises In these submersibles. For there is a lot of exacting work to do and a great deal of responsibility for each member of tho crew. Each man of the crew, which varies from fifteen to twenty-five men, has to know how to run the boat practically; that is, he must know how to stop or start the engines, how to lire the tor pedo, how to manage the bulkheads, how to do tthose vitally essential things pertaining to maneuvering- the vessel. Then, in case any member of the small crew is incapacitated, he can help in a crisis to win an engagement or weather a storm. "One of the first things that inter ests the recruit on board a submarine, of course, is tho work of 'diving,' which is complicated and has to be done with accuracy. It Is not the swift matter of an instant that tho inex perienced believes. It takes careful judgment and preparation, albeit that work is all done with rapidity. The single item or stopping tho "engines completely is one thing necessary, else a vacuum would bo formed as the ves sel descended and the crew would die. For, onco under water, wo have to use tho motors for propelling the craft. Two types of submarines, one the Lake, which sits on an even keel, the other tho Holland, which literally dives nose first, are anothor thing which many people do not know about. I never was seasick. But, believe me, there is plenty of chance for that op eration. For a more tossed -about craft while, it Is on the surface in rough weather never existed -than a subma rine; and the momerft it sinks into tho calm of the depths, you face rather poor ventilation, of course, and the odor of tho engine oir and the like makes it difficult to remain a 'super man,' as it were. The officers ten us we're picked men for this work and I know that each member of a sub's crew is a petty officer. I have been promoted to gunner's mate and have enlisted for four years by which time I should thing the Germans would be exhausted on land and sea, as they can't hold out much longer, according to the talk of the naval officers I've heard." uu .

WMllES WAGEDEMANDS Stockyards' Employes Should Be Granted All Six of Their Pleas. CHICAGO. March 7. Urging that all six of the demands of the men be granted, Attorney Frank P. Walsh to day delivered his closing argument in the packers' wage arbitration. In closing the caso for the packers Attorney James G. Condon suggested that the arbitrator fix the working day for unskilled men at one hour more than for skilled labor so as to provide for the necessary clean up of the plants after killing and dressing beef. The court room was crowded with stockyards employes and their friends when Mr. Walsh began to speak. "The children of these stockyard workers are hungry because their parents cannot earn a living wage," said Mr. Walsh. "They are insuffi ciently clad and insufficiently shod. The workmen are making a real sac rifice every day. What sacrifice are the packers making comparable pith theirs?" The assumption of the packers that they have the right to fix wages, the lawyer denounced as undemocratic. He extolled the virtues of labor unions and insisted oh the right of collective bargaining for wages and conditions of service. "Capital may not know it, but it is tho labor union which is going to save their property and prevent a situation such as that which had demoralized Russia," said Mr. Walsh. "Many em ployers have not the vision to see what threatens them." Mr. Walsh informed Judge Samuel Alschuler, the arbitrator, who has been a lawyer all his life, that a"n arbitrator in a labor dispute should be a man who works with his hands. Attorney Frank P. Walsh said he ' 6elieved in the settlement of labor troubles by arbitral Ion until such time as there such a perfect balance of power between capital and labor thai neither side can take advantage of the other. a PIMPLY?

Heney for the federal trade commis sion and justified the use of confiden tial letters taken from the packers private flies in the present wage ar bitration. The packers, he said, have always opposed every attempt made to obtain decent working hours for their'' em ployes either by trade unions or in leg islatures. And the packers always act collectively in these matters, Attorney Walsh said. He cited the incidont of the discharge of twenty-five men by Swift and company at its Denver plant which precipitated a strike, as evi dence that the big packers do not hes itate to stop production, if necessary, despite government needs when their plans or profits are interfered with. He denned the action of the packers as sabotage. I i CLASSIFICATION ; FOR NEXT DRAFT . WASHINGTON, March 7 Rcclassi- fication according to physical condi tion of thet men called in the next . j army draft is provided in revised in ( structions for medical hoards which .are being sent to the local boards throughout the country.
