Quarrel Over Slice of Bread
Leads to Murder at Meade
Camp Metulc. Md., Oct. 21.—Pol
lowing an argument over a slice of
bread. Corporal Robert E. Nelson,
of Yanding, l.ackawanna County.
Ph., is dead here, and Private Jeff
Lankford, of Ridgedale. Tenn.. is
locked up in the stockade charged
with killing his superior officer.
Nelson was stabbed In the neck and
over the heart this morning as he
sat at the mess halls of the Seven
teenth Infantry. The quarrel, which
resulted in the murder, occurred in
the company kitchen last night.
Lankford was on kitchen police
duty Saturday and Corporal N'elson
was also on duty in the mess hall.
The corporal took a piece of bread
and after eating a part of it, threw
the remainder away. Lankford ac
cused hint of throwing it into the
wrong receptacle, in each kitchen
Ihere are different receptacles for
the different kinds of food wastes,
fats being kept separate from the
other refuse from the tables.
N'elson denied that he hud thrown
the bread in the wrong can and an
..argument started. Those who heard
it say that things grew rather warm,
and a fight was looked for. The
men were separated, however, and
when tups was sounded last night
and both of the men retired, the dis
pute was over—at least by the fel
low-soldiers in the company.
It is said that Lankford ap
proached Nelson as he ate yester
day morning and without any com
ment and before he could be stopped,
stabbed the corporal in the back of
the neck. Jt is said he then stabbed
him in the breast over the heart as
he fell from the stool on which he
was seated. Soldiers 'who witnessed
the affair seized Lankford and dis
armed him. Nelson was rushed to
the base hospital, but was dead be
fore lie reached there.

Terms to the Germans
Washington, Oct. 19. Peace
terms to be Imposed upon Germany
will be decided by a council of the
nations associated in the war against
Germany.
The Council or conference will
meet probably within the next two
weeks, so that when Germany is
forced by the operations of the
Allied armies to sue for peace, there
may be no confusion or bickering
as to what the terms shall be.
While the ( German government is
endeavoring to continue the negotia
tions for a compromise, all indica
tions are to the effect that the
smashing blows of tile Allied armies
and the weakening of Ihc morale of
the German people will compel Ber
lin to ask for terms of surrender.
The Allied nations will be ready to
state these terms concretely as a
result of the deliberations of the
grand conference the participants
in which will be advised by Marshal
Foch and the other military ad
visers to the supreme war council.

Lower Rents in Jersey
by Quarantine Methods
Trenton, N. J., Oct. 21.—Kent
questionnaires in use in Camden,
county have proved so effective in
stopping profiteering by landlords
that the plan was to-day recom
mended by Governor Edge to county
prosecutors throughout New Jersey.
Excessive rents are reduced, it is
said, and notice of increase counter
manded when the Camden county
authorities investigate complaints
under the new system.
When a tenant complains, Charles
A. Wotverton, prosecutor in Camden
county, advised the Governor, he is
furnished with a questionnaire whilst
|he lilts out and supports by affida
vit. The landlord or his agent is
'notified and submits a counter ques
tionnaire. The prosecutor considers
both sides and, if unable to reach
an adjustment, carries the contro
versy to the Governor, the grand
jury or the National Housing Cor
poration for linal action.
