Des Moines, , la.. Sept 27. (Spe "cia;.)-r-Fie1d Marshall Foch will at tend tlie national canvention of the American Legion, to be held in -Minneapolis November 11, accord inz to word received by the of fi cers of the legion. His visit to the United" States in November has been definitely announced. He will ;be a speaker at the legion meeting. Members of the legion are prepar . ins to present the distinguished French commander with a medaL Stock Has Tuberculosis. -'Sixteen per cent of the hogs and 8 per cent of the i cattle in Iowa have tuberculosis, according to es timates made by Dr. Robert Wall, state veterinarian. This estimate is based on tests which have been going on throughout the state since last March. About 300 herds of cattle have been tested .in this period. When a cow or steer is found to have tuberculosis it is .slaughtered and the difference in the amount the animal brings at the slaughter pens and m its ap praised value is paid jointly by the state and government, although the state will not pay over $80 for a pure-bred and $40 for a grade, and the government will not pay more than $50 for a pure-bred or $3c for a grade. Dr. Wall believes that inspection of meat animals at pack ing centers should extend to poul try, which he declares are often in fected with diseases, but no exam? .nation is made of them. . - Fires Cause 96 Deaths. Ninety-six deaths were caused by '- fires iir" this state last year, 4!of which were in fires where gasoline or kerosene was responsible. This is the record which reports to the state fire marshal's department dis close. In 1918 the total property loss from 4,393 fires in Iowa was ' $6,440,771. Three-fourths .of these fires could, have been prevented, the state fire marshal says. Among some of the common causes of dis astrous fires, are the following; Carelessness in ttie use of electric Irons, defective chimneys, starting fire with coaloil o gasoline, match es, stovepipes through walls or roof, smokers' carelessness, children play ing with matches. These facts are pointed out in a poster issued by State Fire Marshal J. A. Tracy call ing attention to Fire Prevention day, . Disloyalty Case Upheld. . George Gibson of Union county, onvict4 in 1918 of inciting and en iouraging hostility to the govern ment and the state and of making disloyal utterances, has lost his ap peal case in the Iovja supreme court which handed down a decision up? holding the Union county district court,, The specific charge against ;Gibson -was that he "did attempt by speech, action and manner of speak ing to incite," abet, promote, and en courage hostility and opposition to , the government of the state and the United States, contrary to the statutes in such cases made and pro vided and against the peace and dig nity of the state."

(Sneecial Telegramj Congressman Jefferis introduced a bill to prohibit the ex portation of lumber for a period of tyvo years and providing penalties for the violation of the same. ,In explaining the purpose of his hill, the Omaha representative said; "In these crucial days of recon struction, it becomes necessary! to take special precautions to protect the work now under way, and, to encourage further building activi ties. The great domestic -demand for - lumber during the Var was evidenced in the decrease of ex ports. However, reports of the De partment of Commerce to June, 1919, show that the foreign trade is again on the increase. Figures compiled by the department show that, excluding shingles, staves, furniture, moldings, etc., we ex ported 1,077,973,000 board feet ', of lumber in the 12 months ending June, 1919. This is more than 10, 000,000 feet in excess of the amount exported the previous year, and is 30,000,000 feet more than the export of 1917. This, in spite of the demand uo- cally for lumber in shipbuilding, which increased more than 100 per cent in the past year. More than this, we find that the productioA of lumber steadily drains. In 1907 we cut 46,000,000,000 board feet of lumber in the United States, while in 1915 only 38,000,000,000 board fet were cut. Thus it is that the annual exports of lumber from the United States amount normally to"T 8 per cent of the total cut. lhe original forest area ot this country was 850,000,000 acres. It is now less than 545,000,000 acres. My "bill seeks to prevent further shipments of lumber to foreign nations until our country can supply its building demands." Bloodless Victory - for American Tars on Dalmatian Coast Wasington, Sept. 27. A force of American sailors from the cruiser Olympia was landed at Trau, on the lower Dalmatian"" coast, September 23.

Fastest Sub In World U.S.AA-1; Makes 2(T Knots On Official Test Boston, Sept. 27. Official tests of the first American fleet submar ine, the AA-1, formerly known as the Schley, conducted off Provincetown, indicate that the vessel is the fast est and most efficient craft of its kind ever constructed. ' " Over a measured course the big submarine made a surface speed of 20.92 knots and a submarged speed of 12.65 knots, exceeding contract re quirements in both respects. With the exception of British freak sub mersibles, steam driven on the sur face, which attained a speed of 23 knots, the American craft is said to be the fastest submarine afloat. The boat will carry a crew of 60 men and tour-inch guns, mounted "wet" on its decks. It will have a cruising radius on the surface greater than any but the latest battleships, probably 12,000 miles, and in reality forms a new weapon of naval war fare, as no German or British sub marine equals its military characteristics.

The kaiser.who seemed to be in the best of spirits, declared that he had nothing to add, to these articfes and that he anticipated an extremely jnteresting time in London. He was anxious that it should be known that he was placing no obstacle in the way ef the trial and he was only too grateful to Mr. Lloyd George for having provided an opportunity for bringing the real authors of the war to justice. "I shall not," he said, "put your London police to the trouble of ad vertising that I am 'wanted' there. I shall not end my days on St. Hel ena, but where I really am "wanted, and badly wanted and that is in Berlin."
