FICTITIOUS FAMINES. . Te White House statement concerning the tuaarj ,::on make? one thing clear. There was not tin j - ' shiest foundation for the talk of aucar famine. The ' "---ni'lent has reached the 'onclusion r.u the basis of! , that the available sugar supply i.-i sufficient for j merican needs "even on the present unnecessarily largo : t.ania of consumption." America's consumption in 1 ft 1 5 : a-as 4.50.00" tons, cf which l,0o0,('" tons was ra ised ! in this country. The Cuban crop Is us. usually larpe, ai ' 1,800.000 tens, of which the Allies will take l.2a0.0' , tons, but in addition the Louisiana, Western berr. Ila- 1 wallan and Porto Kican products ill r;ach 2."J0O.t.nt. : ions, so that on any way of figuring there is a surplus ' for Adierka. I Tha mutual recrirainationt between the admiuiotra- 1 t;on. conarrens and th sugar board simply show how j nanly bungled the business was. If, as the. White House j statement tries to make appear, congressional action was j ceedfii last August, a prompt statement by the adminis- ! tratioa at that time of what was needed should have I been euacient to secure the legislation required.

CLEMENCEAU'S PLAIN TALK. In a visit to his Chamber of Deputies constituency Premier Ciemeuteau tailed in a way that would have

and cet your salary raised. Ohio State Journal

A JOrRN'.M.ITIC student at Camp Meaoe the other day asked to take up bricklaying also, as a side issue and a sort of a precautionary measure in these days of unsettled standards.

P AP.AOR PHER in Kxrhanse savs. "If nobody else wants to fake the railroads, we will accept one either the Pennsylvania or the X. V. Central. I.et the Erie eo back to in folk who built it. They are to blame.' " AS soon as we bcain to cet enthusiastic oer some campaign for national economy which the government is carrying on it asks for .Miother sn.OrtO.Ofio to push the rood work a lone FOR the moment. Rabe" p..uth. home-run hitter par excrlb-nce. divides interest with Attorney General Palmer's destruction of profiteering. P)ROTHER HAYS is not losing any time spreading his Republican net so none of the votes the women want to throw into it will be lost.

PASSING the sugar buck is still one of the popular

"delighted" the heart of the late Colonel Roosevelt, when j official sports in Washington and other large centers

he urged on France the necessity of re-peoplin? the na-t.fo-3. His recipe of families of teu to twelve children would certainly be effective in time to accomplish the result. ThH problem Is one that troubled France long before tb war. Her families on the average had dwindled in size to an extent to cause real alarm. That Clemenceau should dwell on the subject In a friendly taik with people who know him as their representative r nd who can best appreciate his sincerity is proof that it Is a question of high importance. He also tenders some remarks on the subject of taxation that may be

of population and wisdom

THE German fleet sunk at Sea pa Plow Is to b destroyed. England thus has her original plan carried out anyway HOW long can Clemenceau maintain his popularity in France and advocate the German size of families?

WHAT may embitter the " wets" even more is that the decision was by a 55 per cent court.
