McCndden, who In all accounted for 57 Boche craft, was up over Camhral one day when he sighted a group of cross-marked German planes. He hit one with bursts from his gun and, he said later, "flew east of the machine" and "turned him off west," forcing the aerial captive toward the British lines. MeCudden, his own plane damaged, followed and crashed near where the other landed, Intact. Unhurt, the Major went over and took his adversary prisoner.

Ml ritftu trmn CHICAGO GRAIN CHICAGO, April 1 1 The winter wheat outlook, indicating that despite an unusually small acreage the U. S.

wneat surplus may be fattened even more by tile time harvesteis finish work this year, had a depressing influence on prices today. Wheal sagged about cent a bushel at times but the decline was checked by purchasing inspired by the recent curtailed How of grain to market. Receipts at the 12 principal inlt-1-iur terminals totaled only 13,000 bushels compared with 467,000 a week rgo anf 468.000 a year ago. Traders blpmed the letup in marketings largely on the. fact that prices are not 1 igh enough to encourage producers to redeem grain under government loans.

Burton tvynn again urges citizens, especially large consumers of coal such as churches and business establishments, to purchase their coal supply is not only getting, cial supply is not only getting scarce but truckers and miners are being drafted, making delivery difficult.

The stoppuge on coal delivery ill be due also to the rubber rationing, as trucks, for use in hauling, are low in the priority list. Wynn asks that people not rely on the federal government to push coal delivery as it is interested only In the "all out for defense" and not in whether home owners have enough coal last throughout the winter.
