LONDON, May 12.—A soiemn warn- Ing to munition workers has been !s- ued by the Government, which pro- Claims that it cannot permit strikes to continue and aggravate the delay im the production of munitions, All loyal citizens are ca/led upon to resume work immediately, and the Government gives notice that all per- sons inciting to the stoppage of work om munitions are liable under the De- fense of the Realm Act to conviction for an offense entailing the penalty of fe servitude or less punishment as may be awarded. The notice embodying the warning has been posted in all centres af- fected by the strike of engineers and explains the stoppage of work, which it says was clearly unauthorised by the trade unions and occurred at a time when, in view of the present of- fensive on all fronts, there is greater need for munitions than at any pre- vious time. The Government roport of yester- day's secret session of the House of Commons reads: “At to-day’s secret session the House of Commons proceeded to con- wider the report on the vote of credit for 2500,000,000 — ($2,600,000,000), which had been agreed to in com- mittee Thursday night. “Bir Henry Dalziel demanded that, im addition to the King’s recent proc- lamation, a further appeal should be made to the country to esonomize food, and asked a number of ques- tions ranging over many topics con- nected with the past, present and future of the war. “Sir Edward Carson (Firet Lord of the Admiralty) said he welcomed in- structive criticilam but deprecated at tacks sometimes made for interested motives upon officers of the navy out- side of the House. He related some recent feats of gallantry and recourse on the part of our patrols which had mecounted for German submarines. He expressed a wish that he could publish every one of them, and ex- plained why in the higher interosts of the war it was Jesirable to refrain. “The tonnage losses of the Allies and neutrals for each of the last three months were given to the Mouse. Sir Edward declined to alter the form in which the weekly losses are made public, which he sald had been agreed upon among the Allies, “In conclusion he dwelt upon the great advantage to be derived from the adhesion of the United States to the Allied cause. “Premier Lioyd George gave some figures on the food reserves in the country, and again, while expressing | ( The Fi Bend for elegant bgoklet. avor of “SALADA" is incomparably delicious.

J. Greenbank, O. H. Montgomery, H. P. Piper, F..0. Seaver, Nelson 8. Munger, Philetus H. Holt, John A. Sim, W, P. Tanner and Robert M. French. Mr. French is the chemist of the flour in- Spection department of the exchange and has passed upon the flour shipped to the Allies, At the invitation of Herbert C, Hoover, this committee is preparing 4 brief covering the manufacture, trans- portation and disposal of the flour product of the milla of the United States. This information will be fur- nished also to the Department of Agri- culture. Mr. French said: “A complete summary will be pre- pared showing tho vatious products manufactured from wheat and the uses to which each ts it. “The making of white four is the outgrowth of years of experience in the economical supplying of the Nation with good bread, While It is claimed by food faddiste that a largo amount of our wheat is wasted through the making of white flour, it is very clearly shown that the loss from spoiling of whole wheat flour would very much more than offset any increase in the amount of flour In addition to this, the by-products in the milling of white flour, such as bran, feed mid- diings, &c., are entirely consumed for the production of our meat and milk supply, and to make whole wheat flour would result in a ma-~ terial increase in the cost of milk.” “Whole wheat flour as a géneral rule will keop only from three to eight weeks, and when spoiled it is hoteverfit for cattle food.
