4 MILLIONS WILL BE IN ARMS BY , FIRST OF YEAR
Germany to be Kept Guessing in Future About American War Strength Abroad. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 12 When the last of the July draft contingent moves to camp late this month the United States will have more than 3.000,000 men under arms in its army and navy forces. And if the movement of men to camps progresses according to schedule for the remainling five months of the year, there will ; be a force of 4,000,000 under arms beifore the close of 1918. These figures include army, navy 'and marine forces. Secretary Baker has announced there are more than 1.000,000 American soldiers abroad. Secretary Daniels has not announced what proportion of the 450,000 men In the naval forces i3 abroad, but It Is fair to assume that more than half the total Is In foreign service, giving the United States an armed force of approximately a million and a quarter abroad at the beginning of the second quarter of the second year of American participation .In the war. From now on 1. is probable there will be less information given out as ;to embarkation of American troops for France. Secretary Baker kept his promise to tell the public about troop movements, when there was a " "round number" to announce abroad, when he gave the news that the million mark had been crossed. There is authority for the statement that the Germans will be kept "guessing" about American strength in the future. It is believed announcements already made have served the purpose of proving that the submarine has been a dismal failure in preventing American participation on a large scale in the western front fighting.
Food Control in England May Continue After Closing of War
LONDON, July 12. Food control in England probably will continue for at least a short while after the ending of hostilities, according to John R. Clynes. the new head of the food ministry. Discussing this subject with the Daily Telegraph, the new Controller said: "Whether the food ministry will be continued after the war depends on how long the war lasts, but It is clear the conditions created will not suddenly disappear when it is ended, and for a considerable time the allied nations will be required to act In cooperation both as regards supplies and prices until normal conditions reappear. Unfortunately,, these conditions will be delayed until the forces of food production can be brought to a point where all kinds of necessities again are bountiful. When that time arrives it will be for the nation to say whether it 13 prepared to go back and pursue the usual channels." Regarding aid from overseas, Mr. Clynes said: Indebted to America. "People of this country have little Idea of our indebtedness to AmeH" and the colonies for abundance and regularity of our food supplies. Conditions of transport have improved enormously." The food controller paid tribute to the American "spirit of patriotism, which has been willing to undergo sacrifices in order to feed England. He said he would welcome H. C. Hoover, the American food administrator who is expected in England shortly, and also the opportunity of discussing
with him many of the great business and financial - questions of the food problem. The policies of ; the late Viscount Rhondda would be continued by the ministry, Mr. Clynes declared. The ministry would try to maintain the population in the highest state of efficiency, making the distribution as equitable as possible. "The best and Inferior grades of meat," continued Mr. Clynes, "alike now go to the well-to-do districts and poorer districts and all classes are paying the same price for an equal share of the best and worst portions."

By Associated Press.) GENEVA, Switzerland, Thursday, July 11 The military critic of the Tribune De Geneva say3 he recently met a high German officer who declared that although the German
newspapers had been prohibited from ; mentioning American military matters ' except the taking of prisoners, the ; American invasion of Europe and the 1 great aid being rendered by the ; Americans to the entente allies is : causing much anxiety at German imperial headquarters. The people cannot understand, the German officer said, why the success-. ful German submarine warfare an- j nounced by the reichstag, is unable ' to prevent a million Americans land

clared, are learning the truth through foreign newspapers.
