The western hemisphere, traditionally the world's foodbasket, appears to be capable of tending huge food supplies to war-torn Europe. An inventory of United States' food reservoirs show that they are unusually well stocked and better prepared than 25 years ago to help feed Europe's war refugees.

Millions of bushels of surplus wheat, the basic food, are available. Other grain supplies are sufficient to meet any unusual foreign demand and meat supplies also ap parently are plentiful 8urplus is estimated at almost 300,000,000 bushels. In an arrangement with the de partment of agriculture, the American Red Cross can obtain some surplus foods at about half the market cost Government has taken steps to make loans on grain callable on demand for any emer gency, thereby giving it control over large supplies.

KEEP ALWAYS ON HAND MiTIir Vv IN THC SSf trt 7 Listings Awaited BEIT0NS BRACED FOR NAMES AFTER 30,000 TOTAL IS ANNOUNCED LONDON, June 5. The British public awaits the inevitable issuance of casualty lists that will bring them the names of 30,000 soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force who were wounded, killed or are missing in Flanders.

Prime Minister Churchill Tuesday placed casualties at that number in an nouncing in the house of commons that 335,000 British and French soldiers had been brought off safely in the embarkation from Dunkirk. Mr. Churchill's statement was the first definite indication of the ex tent of British casualties in the Flanders action. Early lists Meagre Casualty lists detailing the losses are expected soon. So far, official lists have been meagre, apart from those giving naval and Royal Air Force casualties.

Three lists on army losses were Issued in late May. One gave 10 killed or fatally wounded, another 12 killed, another seven, but these brought the total listed killed to only 50 on May 30, with 150 wounded, 557 missing, 12,065 died and 29 taken prisoner. Ob viously, no accurate accounting could be released at that time on the Flanders battles. Death or wounding of several prominent individuals has been an nounced. It is known, for instance, that Lord Frederick Cambridge, second cousin of the King; the Duke of Northumberland; Evelyn Boscawen, heir to Viscount Falmouth; the Earl of Erne; polo player Hesketh Hughes and George Duncan, eldest son of Sir Andrew, president of the board of trade, are dead.

Viscount Cowdrawy is among the wounded. The Duke of Gloucester, brother of the King, was wounded in the hand by bomb splinters. Little Information It is for the "fill-in," the names of officers, N.C.O.'s and men, that the public waits. The brief lists so far issued have been printed on inside pages in such newspapers as the Times, the Dally Telegraph and the Daily MalL They have given no Indication of where casualties occurred. They have been published In two sections, one for officers, the other for warrant officers, non-commissioned officers, and men, showing whether killed, wounded or missing, and giving name, regiment and rank.

The immense toll of German forces taken by British and French troops in the Flanders rearguard action has, of course, not been announced by German government or propaganda sources, which so far have confined themselves to fantastic claims of Allied casualties. Allied estimates of German losses have usually ranged around 500,000. Women Take Over Pulpit By DILYS THOMAS (Canadian Press Staff Writer) LONDON. "Business as usual" Is no mere slogan for a great many wives in this country. Increasing numbers are carrying on their husbands' Jobs when the men are called up for service.

Many wives are found taking charge of small retail businesses but some operate service stations, hali-dretsing salons, bakehouses or even act as commercial travellers Two women have become Baptist ministers. One is Mrs. Ian R. Henderson, wife of the minister of Blonfleld Memorial Baptist church, Benwell, Newcastle-on-Tyne. Her husband is a chaplain In the Royal Air Force.

Members of the Blonfleld church decided unanimously to ask Mrs. Henderson td carry on in her husband's absence. She preaches on Sundays and holds wedding or funeral services as required. Mis. W.

Wiles, wife of the min ister of Burlington Baptist church Ipswich, already has conducted her first marriage service. It was a double wedding, the brides being daughters of the choirmaster. When Albert Stringer, boot repairer of Andover, Hants, joined up, he left behind a wife and live children. But that did not worry Mrs. Stringer.

As well as doing the housework and looking after the children she finds time to repair between 40 and 60 pairs of boots and shoes a week. The only training she had was watching her husband, who, when he came home on leave, compli mented his wife on the "profes sional finish to her work. Calgary Donates Six Ambulances CALXJARY, June 8.

First mem.

bers of the Canadian 1st division to see action believed they helped shoot one German raider out of the sky and are looking forward to the day when they can lay an outright claim to bagging the craft. The men are Canadian soldiers manning protective Lewis machine guns aboard merchantmen in the North sea trade. A Nazi plane that swooped down on a convoy of trawlers aboard which were some Canadian snipers, was hit by a blast of fire from several ships and disabled. As it vanished into the semi-darkness it was losing height rapidly and is believed to have crashed in the sea. It was impossible to tell whose shots found their mark but young members of tbe Canadian Active Service Force sniper brigade were tickled to have taken part in the successful action.

About two score sharpshootlng members of the Canadian 1st divi sion have been engaged from time to time since the middle of March in helping to protect trawlers in the coastwise trade. They are the first members of the division to see active service. At present St of them make up 17 sniper teams for that many trawlers. The commander of the snipers said: "I am happy to say we have had not single casualty." HEIR BORN ATHENS, Greece, June 6.

Walton, Retina mcdloil health officer, and apon-aoreo by the public bealth eonuulttea the Keguu Local Council of Women. Upwards of 1,000 women die every year in Canada of conditions associated with child bearing. Stated otherwise, for every 1,000 living babies born in 1937, nearly five women died, which is too high a price to pay for maintaining our population. Given adequate care, many of these deaths were preventable, for it must be remembered that pregnancy is not a disease but a normal biological event. In all Canada in 1934, over 13,000 expectant mothers were supervised by the Victorian Order of Nurses.

The death rate in this group was 1.8 per 1,000 living births-while for all Canada for the same year the rate was 5.3. All maternal deaths cannot be prevented, but many mothers' lives may be saved and much suffering prevented if every expectant mother, as early in pregnancy as possible, consults her physician and follows his advice.

Romance (By Canadian Frees) LONDON, June 5. The bomb- sinking of the paddlesteamer Brighton Queen pricked the heart of many a couple in many a nation who recalled happy days when she was a pleasure craft and rendezvous of romance. Built in 1905, the Brighton Queen made a gay living carrying sight seers, tourists and lovers up and down the Thames river and on short cross-channel trips. Then the war turned her and other similar craft Into minesweepers, and she went down under a rain of German bombs as a trans port on the desperate mission of rescuing Allied troops from Dun kirk. The Brighton Queen arrived at tastj; Prov.

Thrilling Adventures Related LONDON, June 5. Ten veterans of Britain's campaign in Norway returned with a vivid tale of escape not unlike stories of the Allied withdrawal from Flanders. The party, which landed at a Scottish port, said they were separated from their main force in fighting at Otta, in the Gudbrandsdal south of Dombas. It took them three weeks of tramping through the mountains, in snow five feet deep and with only the scantiest food supplies, to reach the coast, where they obtained a row boat. They were able to lay in some provisions, and spent the next 10 days in the boat until they reached an island, where they got a motor- boat to take them to Scotland.

The boat broke down and trawler towed them into port Their spokesman, Private Robert Ogle, said that once during their trek to the Norwegian coast they stopped at a house to get food and were met by a German officer and an orderly, who told them they were prisoners. 'I pulled the pin out of a hand grenade and kept them at bay un til we could get back into the woods and escape," he said. "We had a Bren gun that stood us in good stead once when we ran into an enemy party 20 yards below us on a mountainside. They started firing but we wiped them out." COLONSAV.

Bombed the French port Friday at dawn and took mors than 100 troops aboard before she had to go to the rescue of a motor vessel grounded with 300 aboard. With her sturdy paddle wheels, the Queen pulled the motor-craft off the bottom and out to sea under steady straffing from bombers.

She landed the first load at an English port and went back for more next morning, loading 600 Algerian and French troops under persistent bombing. She barely got into the open sea when German bombers concentrated in a new attack. One bomb hit the stern, and it was everybody for himself since there was only one lifeboat. Most of the crew were saved, but there was no announcement regarding the soldiers aboard. The plan above suggests such a garden, which has an axis centring on the porch of tbe house, with a tree as a terminal feature.

Such an axis is Important in a formal garden; it should centre on a porcn, door or window, and at its other end there should be something to take the eye, if not a tree, then a birdbath, an arbor, or some other feature. On either side of this axis there should be a general balance of both mass and color, which is most eas ily provided by duplicating the plantings on each side as the plan suggests. Of the flowers recommended In the plan, alyssum and nlcotiana are fragrant, and will provide an extra attraction for evening visitors, when the fragrance Is most Intense. There are many other flowers which can be grown in such a garden, and various color schemes which could be developed, Canadians in UK. Allowed to Enlist In Units Overseas OTTAWA, June 5.

Hon. Norman Rogers, defence minister, said Tuesday night authority had been granted under which a limited num ber of Canadians resident in the United Kingdom might enlist In the Canadian Active Bervlce Force overseas for "special purposes." "However," be added, "general enlistment in the Canadian forces overseas of Canadians resident in the United Kingdom has not been permitted because of the ready availability in Canada of recruits for Canadian units." The minister made no mention of the number of men enlisted overseas for special purposes. Ha was commenting on a London despatch reporting a question had been ask ed in the British house of commons as to why Canadians, resident in the United Kingdom, were unable to enlist In the Canadian forces without first returning to Canada. The government reply was that it was a matter for the Canadian government.
