The one hope Is the press will refuse to aid tble campaign of vicious rumor that te being carried on so industriously ky persons anknown. Although only in remote cases have the sensational rumors found their way Into print, their distribution has been wide-spread and in some case their Influence has been marked by wdie fluctuation in grain, cotton and stock exchanges.

The Washington-correspondents and news services had Innumerable queries about reported disaster to one or another destroyer or battleship and one rumor widely circulated told of a mythical engagement off Helgoland, in which a large number of American ships were supposed to have been lost. All these stories have been denied Informally by the navy censor, and hundreds of papers acting under a voluntary censorship and relying oa the governments assurances of a policy of frankness have refrained from publishing them.

The captain of a vessel which has made several trips to France during the war was in Bangor recently and in conversation with a resident gave some rather startling facts concerning the difference in prices of food stuffs in that country and the United States He said: Talk about the suffering and privation in France from lack of food! Why, I bought potatoes over there in stocking rhip for the return trip for $5 a barrel, where I had to pay $11 here. And beef, I bought for 8 cents a pound, where they hold me up for 16 and 17 cents here. It costs me about twice as much to supply my vessel on this side as it does in France and I dont have any difficulty fn getting the supplies there." Considering the fact that the food stuffs bought in France are probably shipped there from this country, the present high cost of living here does not appear to be any more justified than has been believed by many, people. It would seem that the proposed food control by Mr. Hoover cannot come any too soon.

UIYEI LIBERATES PAGE CHILDREN Latest Episode in Peculiarly Persistent Effort to Take Them From Mother.

The much discussed and oft-continued case of the five Page children waB before the municipal court on Friday for still another hearing.

To this Miss Porter objected, and the door of the judge's room was closed to corral the flock, but Mr. Chapman opened another door and told iha, mother and children to go out that way, the appeal to the supreme eourt being sufficient to take the matter out of the Jurisdiction of the lower court, in his opinion.

m. "The successes against submarines have resulted In a distinct Improvement in our food situation, Bald Premier Lloyd George Friday In the House of Commons. The premier said more effective blows had been dealt tbe submarines during the last three weeks than iu any corresponding period of the war. Tbe shipping losses for May, the permler said, probably would show a reduction from the April figures. In speaking of the success oT the anti-submarine methods, he said; "We owe a very considerable debt of gratitude to the great American people for the effective assistance they have renrered and the craft they have placed at our disposal.

Now that the American nation Is In the war, it Is easier to make arrangements for the protection of our merchant marine than It was before." Mr. Lloycf George asserted there was no danger to the country from starvation, but that the utmost economy of foodstuffs was still essential. "The submarine menace need cause no fear that the war Is going to he shortened for that reason," he declared. "If It is true that the Germans are depending mainly upon submarine warfare for success, I am able to say they are doomed to disappointment, Mr. Lloyd George continued The German submarine warfare Is destined to be the greatest mlsialculatlon In the whole series of miscalculations of that hated empire." Effort to Create Friction of Distrust With the U.

S. 1 Government WASHINGTON, May 25. German Influences, otflclals here believe are at work In the Argentine Republic In an effort to create friction and distrust between that country and the United States government. The latest evidence of this Influence Is an attempt to excite adverse criticism In a portion of the Argentine press of the action of the state department fn connection with the Argentine wheat em- bargo, the purpose being to place the departments Inquiries in lie light of an unwarrantable Impeachment of the integrity of the official reportsf of the Argentine government. The facts as learned from official sources are that the stale department had received through various channels news of the Argentine embargo, but these reports were so conflicting os to the fact and as to the reason and necessity for the embargo that the department found It necessary to make Steamer Camden from Boston and steamer Castine from West Brooks-vllle arrived on Friday.

The four-masted schooner Orleans, which brought coal here for the Eastern Mfg. is ready to sail for a coal port. The Orleans has' a crew of colored men, who are among the best sailors to be had now. She recently returned from a voyage to Axlm, W. C.

and is likely to go offshore again unless her owners, like many have come to the conclusion that $6 a ton on coal from the Chesapeake or Delaware to New England ports pays just as well and Is a good deal safer than navigating round among the mines and submarines on the other side. Able seamen are in demand at $45 to $50 a month for coasting trips beyond Cape Cod, and $60 a month and bonus for offshore. The first mate of schooner Orleans was offered this week $125 a month for a trip to Fort de France, Martinique, and' back. Shipping Agent Michael E. Tracey reports men very Bcarce.

POWDER IN SHOES i AS WELL AS GUNS r' Foot-Ease lo He Added to Equipment cf Hospital Corps at Fort Wayne Under the above heading the Detroit Free Press, among other tlilpgs says The theory is that soldiers whose feet are in good condition can walk further and faster than soldiers who 1 have corns and bunions Incased In m-hlde.
