NEWS REVIEW OF
THE PAST WEEK
Government Is Now Going After
the Food, Munition and
Fuel Pirates.
CONTROL BILL IN CONGRESS
Other Aeenclea Attacking the Profit,
eera Plans Pushed for Huge Amer
ican Air Army Russia Deter
mined to Continue the
War Against German
Absolutism.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD.
. Undo Sam Inst week began paying
moro special attention to tho pirates
that Infest the land the food pirates,
"tho munition plrntes, tho fuel pirates
land all the obnoxious brood of prof
iteers whose greed for money obliter
ates their patriotism, If they ever hnd
any of the latter quality. Tho warfare
against these men and corporations Is
Tielng carried on In the way of Judicial
'investigations that will result In In
dictments and In proposed legislation
by congress. The latter, of course, Is
tho administration food control bill,
which tho president has been urging
toward passage with the forceful as
sistance of Herbert O. Hoover. Mr.
(Hoover told a bunch of senators on
Tuesday why tho measuro should bo
'passed, and answered all tho objec
'tlons of Its opponents, headed by Vard
aman, Gore and Reed.
In the house on Thursday Represen
tatives Modden and Cannon of Illinois
mado an attempt to have cotton In
cluded among tho articles to bo put
tinder control, but tho Southern Dem
ocrats rushed to tho rescue of the cot
'ton planter and defeated tho plan. Tho
majority also voted down a proposition
by Haugen of Iowa to Include cloth
'lng, shoes nnd Implements In tho meas
ure. Tho opposition to the bill In tho
house was weaker than In tho senate
'Senator Sherman of Illinois fiercely
attacked tho measuro as one designed
to favor tho city dweller and union la
bor and to Injure the farmer, and ho
itook tho opportunity to say sorao very
Isovero things about tho administration,
asserting It had been asleep for two
years and now had waked up Into hys
'teria. Daniels Jolts the Extortionists.
Secretary Daniels became wenry of
tho extortions of the fuel magnates,
,and on Monday announced that tho
coal nnd oil the navy needed would bo
taken by the government nnd paid for
'at prices to be fixed by tho govern
ment. Producers of steel found them
selves facing tho prospect of the same
action.
Organized labor also took n hnnd In
tho fight on the food extortionists and
notified the administration, through
the American Federation of Labor,
that unless tho prices of tho necessi
ties of life nro brought down to rea
sonable figures, there probably will bo
an epidemic of strikes, possibly even
a national tie-up In many Industries.
Tho federal trndo commission an
nounced It was ready to begin Its In
vestigation of food conditions on July
1; tho Information obtnlned will bo
turned over to tho food administrator
and tho department of Justice.
Why should not tho press of tho
country print prominently tho names
of tho dcsplcablo creatures who are
taking advantage of tho nation's
needs? Decont motives being lacking,
'fear of tho public wrath might oper
ato to Induce them to censo their ne
farious work.
Planning Great Air Army.
More and inoro tho government Is
becoming convinced that America's
first big play In tho war must bo in
In the air, and tho plans for speedily
sending many thousands of airplanes
and aviators to tho front from this
country aro being pushed with vigor.
,Oongress Is asked to make an aero
nautic appropriation of 1000,000,000
to stnrt with, and already hundreds of
young men are being selected for the
work and put Into training. For a
long time Admiral Peary has been urg
ing the building up of a powerful air
service for our army and navy, and
Brigadier General Squlor has done all
an active officer Is permitted to do to
forward such n plan, and now the gov
ernment renllzes thnt an Immense fleet
of nlrplnnes Is the quickest effective
uld It enn give to Its utiles In Eu
rope. Tho aviation bill contemplates tho
establishment of 24 training enmps and
Instruction In many technical schools;
tho construction of about 2,000 planes
n month nt the end of six months, with
tho number constantly Increasing until
it reaches 5.000 a month; the building
at first mainly of training und obser
vation machines and later of larger
number of battle planes.
To fill up the ranks of the regular
army, President Wilson Issued a cull
for 70,000 volunteers between the ages
of eighteen and forty years. Through
out the army tho recruiting officers
especially emphasized the fact that
men who registered are welcome as
volunteers nnd will have some advan
tages over those who wait to be
drafted..
Registration slackers began getting
what Is coming to them last week.
Their days of grace having expired,
they were nrrested wherever found
and chucked Into Jul). Several of them
nlrendy hnve been given prison sen
tences. Though the number of arrests
may seem large, it really Is insignifi
cant when compared with the totnl
registration.
War department officials seem to bo
having n hard time settling on the
plans for the training camps for the
National army. Over nnd over ngaln
tho specifications nro chnnged, nnd not
much hendwny Is being made. Instend
of leaving tho detnlls to tho regulnr
nrmy officers, who nrc experts In thnt
lino, tho council of national defense
has taken a hnnd nnd put "experts" of
Its own choosing In chnrgc of various
parts of the work, and tho result so
far has been confusion nnd delay. The
council hns been doing grent work In
ninny wnys, but this looks like a case
of too mnny cooks. The whole mat
tcr of getting tho conscriptlvo nrmy
nnd tho National Gunrd into training
only emphasizes tho wisdom of a uni
versal service policy and law.
Submarines Very Active.
Germany's submarines put In an
other busy week, mnny reports of the
sinking of nllled nnd neutral vessels
coming In. Among tho ships sent down
was the American oil tank steamship
John D. Archbold, five of whose crew
wero lost. Tho vessel was armed and
carried n gun crew from an American
warship, but the gunners hnd not been
supplied with rango finders by tho
nnvy department.
Vlco Admlrnl Sims, during tho tem
porary absence of the British com
mander In chief, was appointed to tnke
general chargo of the operations of tho
allied naval forces in Irish waters,
where tho U-boats find most of their
victims. The giving of this great re
sponsibility to tho American admiral
shows tho confldenco tho nllles have
In his ability and wisdom.
Two fonts of tho Amerlcnn destroy
ers in British wnters wero told dur
ing tho week. One of these vessels
enmo upon a submnrlne nnd promptly
rammed It, probably sending It to tho
bottom. Two others, responding to
wireless calls, rescued 80 survivors of
two British ships that wero torpedoed
100 miles away, tho farthest point west
In tho Atlantic tho U-boats have oper
ated slnco tho ruthless cnmpalgn be
gan. Thero was violent fighting In Franco
throughout tho week, but neither side
mado Important gains. Tho Germans
won flrs't-llno trenches from tho Brit
ish east of Monchy-le-Prloux and from
tho French cast of Vauxnlllon, but
Inter wero driven back again with
heavy losses. Tho Canadian troops
captured somo positions In front of
Lens, paving tho way for a drlvo on
thnt center of tho coal Holds.
Toward tho end of tho week tho
Germans yielded to tho heavy pressuro
of tho British In tho territory domi
nated by tho Mcsslnes ridge and aban
doned tho ground they bad held on tho
western sldo of tho bend of tho Lys
river, between Wurneton nml Armen
tleres. Another German Fiasco.
Germany's clumsy diplomacy came
to grief again in the developments fol
lowing the attempt of Robert Grimm,
Socialist, to induce Russia to conclude
a separate pence. When the Intrigue
was exposed, Grimm was driven from
Russia, and last week Dr. Arthur Hoff
man, a member of the Swiss federal
council, who had a prominent part In
tho plot, resigned his olllco. The dis
closures led to an excited mass meet
ing of protest and a pro-ally demon
stration In Geneva. Grimm was de
nounced for trying to push Switzerland
Into tho war for tho purpose of serv
ing Germany, and the crowds stoned
tho residences of pro-Germans.
Kllliu Root nnd his colleagues spent
tho week getting acquainted with tho
true state of affairs In Russia, and
were ussured by the government offi
cials that nothing would be concealed
from them. Commnnder in Chief
Brusslloff sent to General Robertson
Wednesday a telegram nssurlng him
that, "In honor bound, free Russia's
armies will not full to do their duty."
Boris Bakhmctlcff, special Russlnn
envoy, nnd ills colleagues arrived In
Washington and nlmost Immediately
gave out a statement of the program
of tho provisional government. This
Includes the absolute rejection of nil
thought of n separate penco nnd tho
achievement of unlvcrsnl pence with
out annexations or contributions nnd
presuming no dominion over other na
tions. Tho provisional government
will take preparatory steps for nn
agreement with Its allies founded on
Its declaration of Mnrch 27, nnd Its
chief nlm Is stntcd to be to fortify tho
Democratic foundntlons of tho nrmy
nnd organize und consolidate tho
nrmy's fighting power for its dcfenslvo
ns well ns offensive purposes.
In Potrogrnd tho ull-Russlnn con
gress of workmen nnd soldiers unani
mously resolved upon nn lmmcdluto
offensive, und tho snmo sentiment wns
expressed In n manifesto Issued by the
military union of woman volunteers,
which sold "tho workers nro appealing
for nn unrelenting struggle ngnlnst an
enemy who Is moved solely by Impe
rialistic and slaving tendencies."
The provlslonnl government has bo
gun proceedings for tho severe punish
ment of vnrlous high officlnls of tho
old regime, who nro accused of
brenches of the inws of the empire.
Several former cnblnct members nnd
nrmy commnndcrs, Including Protopop
off nnd General Rcnncnknmpf, huvo
been Indicted.
Crisis In Austria-Hungary.
Not much news wns allowed to como
out of Austrln-Hungnry, but what did
emerge Indicates that the situation
thero becomes more critical dally. Tho
Poles of the duul kingdom are virtual
ly In revolt, dcmnndlng nt leust au
tonomy for their lnnd, nnd neurly ull
tho people nro Insistent for pence.
Tho Austrlun cabinet, headed by Clam
Mnrtlnlc, resigned.
Conditions duo mainly to tho war
havo brought on a crisis In Spain that
threatens to result In tho deposition of
King Alfonso, despite his personal pop
ulnrlty, und tho establishment of yet
nnother new republic In Europe. Tho
censor, however Is as busy thero as in
other countries, und tho reports mny
be misleading.
Over In China matters seemed to bo
settling down peacefully, possibly In
part tho result of President Wilson's
suggestion that tho Internal troubles
thero bo brought to n pacific nnd
speedy end. Several of tho seceding
provinces hnve said they would como
back into the federal fold, and tho
president hns cnlled a new parliament
ary election.
Certnln notoriously pro-Germnn

elsewhero, somo of them printed In
tho aeminn lnngungo, aro attracting
tho attention of tho government ngents
by their continuous und vicious nttneks
on the allies of tho United Stutes nnd
their thinly-veiled opposition to this
country's courso in tho wnr. With tho
skill of trained writers they mny avoid
suppression for treasonable utterance,
but their sentiment and Intent uro ovl
dont, nnd If they cannot bo renched by
legal procedure, they may yet be
squelched by tho peoplo without thu

IKE NEW AUTO LAW
HEGULATIONS FOR LIGHTS WHILE
DRIVING AT NIGHT
LATE NEWSJROM CAPITOL
Item of General Interest Gathered
from Reliable Sources Around tho
State House
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
A now law enacted by the rocont
legislature of Interest to all auto
owners ami drivers which necessar
ily includes thu greater proportion
of Nebraska's luliabltants, will go
Into effect July 21. This law, whllo
it makes amendments and provisions
for speed, brakes and other Ideas
connected with tnotonlom, moro par
ticularly provides for the proper
lighting of both pleasuto and com
mcrdal cars. Under this now law,
drivers at night nro compelled to
have a red tail light as well ns
proper front Illumination, togethor
with search lights. Many attempts
have been mado to provide proper
regulations for light In night driv
ing to eliminate all danger of acci
dent coming through tho glare. This
new law specifically requires that no
portion of tho beam of reflected
light from a car when mensmed
Boventy-tlvo foot or moro ahoad of
tho lamps, shall rlso above forty-two
inches from tho level surface upon
which the vehicle stands. It enn bo
readily seen that scientifically con
