Second Shipment Is Sent to
Portland Today and Still
More Will be Sent, Accord
ing to Food Administrator.
Ia responsa to appeals front the
United States food administration the
people of Lane county have aaved three
carloads of wheat flour for our soldiers
in France and the people of the allied
nations. Two carloads of flour wars
shipped to Portland today. These, with
other flour from the northwest, obtained
in a similar manner, will be shipped at
once to Europe. Lane county previously
shipped one carload of Hour to 'Portland.
Much of 'the flour waa turned back
by the consumers to the dealers. Borne
flour hss not yet been turned back, but
i preparation to receive and ship all
wheat flour remaining in the country
Is being made.
The lack of wheat flour and the gov
ernment's request that no whest flour
be used, is resulting in much complaint
over the increased cost of substitutes.
A meeting of food administration offi
cials is being held in Portland today for
the purpose of discussing the question
of fixing prices on substitutes.
(The new augsr regulation, fixing the
maximum sales to families for canning
purposes, annourced by the food admin
istration in Portland yesterday, la in
part aa follows:
'On account of shipping difficulties.
the sugar situation is becoming more
acute nd we have bees advised by the
food administration at Washington that
it is absolutely necessan to limit the
amount of sugar used in domestic can
ning and preserving to 23 pounds. Tom
will, therefore. Immediately upon reaeipt
of thia notice, change the sugar certifi
cate on the top line to read aa follows:
""No family can purchase more than
23 pounds of sugar for canning and pre
serving without a special permit from
the county food administrator.'
In caae it is not absolutely essential
to a family to have even this amount,
you must reduce it to the smount that
they absolutely require.'

FOOD PROBLEM GROWS
SEEIOU 8F0R GERMANY
(Continued from page one)
ed by the Hohensollerna ss their only
method of procedure.
The kaiser's people still hypnotised by
the glamour of militarism, are willing
to accept greater sacrifices than is Austria-Hungary.
The necesssry inference
is that the Austro-Hungarians have be
gun to fall away from military worship.
By attacking the food regulatlona of
the militarists, they have secured more
food for themselves. This part of the
lesson may suddenly come home to the
underfed masses of Germany.

Head of British Aviation Service
Says Trans - Atlantic Will
Come in Three Months.
Washington, June 21. American aero
planes, equipped with Rolls-Royce en
gines and piloted by aviators of the
allied nations, will crosa the Atlantic
within three months, Major-General W.
Branker stated, probably would be made
from Newfoundland to Portugal, via the
Azores. Seven hundred and fifty horse
power airplanes carrying crewa of three
or four men will be used.
In discussing the proposed flights.
General Branker declared that the mat
ter had been brought to the attention
of the war and navy departments and
that thia government was in favor of the
venture.
"Once thia enterprise hss been estab
lished," General Branker said, "Ameri
ca's output of big bombing machine can
proceed to Europe by air and so save
shipping that ia so invaluable for other
purposes.
This may seem a wild statement.
But ia 1014 the flight of the English
channel was considered a wonderful and
dangerous performance."
Crass I Fsw Hoars,
Flying at the rate of 85 miles an hour,
a conservative speed, sot taking into
consideration unfavorable winds, air
planes can reach the Asores in less than
40 hours, according to calculation of
flying experts. General Branker st?ated.
The trip from the Azorea to Portugal
about 800 mile would be comparatively
imple matter after that
From Portugal the plane can easily
fly to Italy or any other part of the
battle front.
The American Liberty motor ha not
been sufficiently tested to warrant ita
uee in trans-Atlantic flight. Several
Rolls-Boyc engines will be imported fox
the initial flight, which, unless the unex
pected happens, will probably be at
tempted in September or October.
So certain are the allies that the trans
Atlantic flights will be successful that
-aey are planning their coming air pro
grama on this method of transporting
lanes to Franc.
Possibilities Unlimited.
The possibilities before aircraft which
can make non-stop flights from New
foundland to the Azores, about S.200
miles, are unlimited. Bombing raids
over the interior cities of Germany will
be the logical result
Upon America mora than any other
nations rests the responsibility and op
portunity of pushing the advantages of
aerial supremacy to th utmost. General
Brsnker stated.
"The air offensive against Germany
has now definitely started and will grow
ateadily in volume and efficiency," he
added.
"By degrees, all the vital points of
Germany will com within our reach."
Th British are depending entirely
the Liberty motor for the carrying
through of their air program for a year
to come, insofar as bombing, recon
naissance and photographing machines
are concerned.
". We will want thousands snd thou
sands ot them," General Branker said.

Branstetter & McLougulin chapel, Sun
