"The White Flour Pinch" —have you felt it? With the advancing price of wheat "the five-cent loaf is doomed/' say the bakers. In its place we have the six-cent loaf—in many cities only the ten cent loaf. A loaf of white flour bread is not a complete ration. However whole some and pure, it does not supply all the proteids the human body needs. In Shredded Wheat Biscuit you have all the body-build ing nutriment in the whole wheat prepared in a digestible form. It is always the same price, always the same high quality. Eat it for breakfast with milk or cream or with fruits. Made at Niagara Falls, N. Y.

A Boston man. an old friend of Major Breckinridge, writes that he had frequently told him the same story as he related to Dr. Bailey. One candidate for elector in Jer sey City says the story was an open secret at Washington. Washington official circles re member President Wilson, urged by Secretary Bryan, did write such a postscript as described and marked it "confidential." Long Branch. N. 5., Oct. 31.—Presi dent Wilson last night characterized as "untrue" the statement made by .senator Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massa chusetts, to the ettect that the Presi-' dent had seriously considered adding a weakening postscript to his "strict ac countability" Lusitania note. Omaha, Neb., Oct. 31.—William J. Bryan, tormer Secretary of State, de nied here last night that there was any truth in the story that a postscript had been written to the Lusitania note. "1 take it for granted." Mr. Bryan said, "that the President will deal with the matter as he deems wise, if, in deed, any attention need be paid it utter Mr. Breckinridge's denial." Fitchburg, Mass., Oct. 31. —Senator Loage submitted last night additional proof of his charges that the first note contained a nullifying postscript that was withdrawn. At a Kepublican rally the senator read a letter from John Temple Lloyd Jettries, corroborating Professor Charles H. baiiey, of Tufts Medical College. Mr. Jetfries wrote that he, too, had heard Henry Breckinridge, former As sistant Secretary of \var, say that there had been a postscript to the note and that it had been withdrawn on threats of Cabinet members to resign. Mr. Jeffries wrote that Dr. Baileys version was correct, and Senator L*>dge reaffirmed his belief in the truth of Ill's charge. Senator said: "Speaking at Somerviile on Satur day last 1 read a letter from Dr. Bailey, professor in Tufts Medical School, in which he repeated a con versation he had had with Mr. Breck inridge, former Assistant Secretary of War under the Wilson administration. The one essential point in the letter was that after the note of May 13 in regard to the sinking of the Dusitania had been formulated and agreed upon the President prepared a postscript, or second note to go with it, in which lie declared, in substance, that the note as published did not mean any thing, and that he would be ready, if the Gernjan government objected, to put the whole matter over for arbi tration until after the war. | Refers to Breckinridge's Rejoinder I "The one point of importance in Mr. Breckinridge's statement to Dr. Bailey was that this postscript, or additional note, had been prepared by the Presi dent to go with the note of May 13. Mr. Breckinridge has published one or two telegrams, in which he refers to Dr. Bailey and myself in a very rngry manner, which is not impor tant, but he characterizes his own conversation, which Dr. Bailey re ported, as 'backstairs gossip.' "He does himself a great injustice by this, because he was a member of the Wilson administration and a most excellent Assistant Secretary of War. He denies that there was any threat of resignation by Mr. Garrison or others, but he entirely fails to deny the essen tial point, which was that the post script was written, and that he and Mr. Garrison saw it. Mr. Garrison said yesterday in Washington: " '1 am not being interviewed on any subject. I have no statement of any kind to make,' so that he, also, refuses to deny the existence of the postscript, which he certainly would have done if it had been a mere fabrication by Dr. Bailey. Dr. Bailey is a gentleman of the highest character, standing and veracity. I have no doubt that he stated the conversation, in substance, with absolute truth."

I The letter was from John Wanamaker ! and addressed to the chairman of the ! organizations represented at the meet | ing. He urged every man to set aside I a part of each day and put in his best l-endeavor striking everywhere while the iron is hot and making it hotter. Said Senator Penrose, after reading i the letter: "If New York will go Republican this year, Mr. Hughes will be elected." (Cries of "There never was a doubt.") "We can win with you," the senator added, "and it is doubtful if we can win without you. There is no doubt in my mind concerning New York and I am convinced that Mr. Wilson will not come within 1,000 miles of being re-elected."

School board officials point out fn answer to this argument that the pass age of the loan will mean an increase in the sohool tax rate of not more than a mill.
