■ IM) EXTEND
0. S. CONTROL OF PRICES
Cotton May Be Included in
New Food Bill Recommend
ed by President
W ASHIXOTOX. Dre. S.—Senator Bo
rah. Idaho, stated today he is merely
waiting for the administration's price
fixing bills to be introduced before re
newing his efforts to extend govern
ment price control to everything in com
mon use. The disposition in congress is
to keep hands off until the president
makes his recommendation to curb dis
ciples of “unrestricted selfishness." as
he called profiteers in his message.
The moment the subject is opened,
however, strong views will be expressed
Senator Chamberlain, who piloted the
food control bill through the senate,
said he expects the issue to be brought
up in a bill empowering the president to
-fix prices on practically all basic mate
rials. including cotton.
Another senator favors application of
the law of diminishing returns, fixing
prices on that portion of a commodity
produced under the most adverse cir
cumstances. “This." he said, “would fix
the price for the whole output. Natu
rally, the man who labored under favor
able circumstances would reap a bigger
reward. I'd tax him to get back part
of his profit."

Injury of Americans
By Airplane Bomb
Caused by Apple Pie
AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR
TERS, FRANCE, Dec. B.—A certain
mess sergeant’s apple pie cookery was
probably responsible indirectly for in
jury of three American soldiers by a
German aeroplane bomb.
The three were members of army
"speciality” troops. They were natives
of Buffalo, N. Y.. Hannibal. Mo., and
Detroit. Mich.
The Boe he air atack occurred on a re
cent star-lit evening. Enemy aeroplanes
dropped two bombs on a town outside
the American army area, but in which
there were a handful of American spec
ialty troops temporarily performing de
tached service.
One of the German bombs struck the
building in which the Americans were
billeted. A mess sergeant of Beattie.
Wash., today said he thought he knew
how the Boches got their aim.
"I was cooking apple pies,” he ex
plained, "and I think the light from my
cook stove, shining through the ventila
tor roof must have guided the enemy.
Bombs dropped near the kitchen and
shook up the stove—but they didn't dam
age my pies.”
A third bomb dropped as the enemy
flyers sped away into the night struck
a haystack on the edge of the village,
rolled off. and landed plump between the
legs of an American soldier who had
taken refuge at the base of the hay
stack. Miraculously, the bomb failed
io explode.

Harry Hood Was Killed, While
the Mother of Milton La
mar Snider Waits to Hear
His Fate
$
The exigencies of war were brought
home to two Atlanta mothers in the
sinking of the United States destroyer,
Jacob Jones, by a German submarine.
The grief of the mother of one Atlan
ta boy is overwhelming because of the
death of her son; the suffering of the
other mother is almost as great because
of the agonizing uncertainty. She does
not know whether her son is dead or
alive.
“I'd rather my son drown than to
fall into the hands of the Germans,"
said Mrs. Belle Hood, mother of Harry
Hood, who lost his life on the tor
pedoed ship. "It's sthne comfort to me

i thoritatively represented, and in which
also Great Britain, France and Italy are
| represented to co-ordinate the allied
forces with the view to concert and co
operation in the conduct of the war.
‘The United States is supporting Italy
as well as England and France, and
those countries in like manner are sup
porting the United States in the war
they are all waging against the imperial
German goverifment. At that point th_e
United States meets Austria-Hungary
and Austria-Hungary is supporting Ger
many. The two nations are in close con
tact and in open coalition in the conduct
of the war.
“Aside from acts of aggression and of
fense committed by the Austro-Hun
garian government against the United
States, which in itself the committee
declares to be sufficient cause for war, it
is manifestly impossible that the United
States and Austria should be at peace
while Germany and the United States
are at war. The state of actual war al
ready exists between Austria and the
United States. It is better for us and
for the world that this great fact should
be recognized and acted upon affirmative
;ly and authoritatively. National honor
and national interests alike demand that
i this government should assume an atti
tude of dignity, sincerity and command
ing firmness in its international rela
tions.”
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,
ranking Republican on the foreign re
lations committee. followed Senator
Stone, and gave reasons for favoring
declaration of war against Turkey and
Bulgaria, but declared unanimity of ac
tion was essential. For that reason he
opposed amendment of the resolution to
include the two lesser central powers.
The senate resolution does not include
the lengthy reason for the action set
forth by the house committee, and Chair
man Stone yesterday said the house re
cital. particularly the assertion that
Austria had broken off diplomatic rela
tions with the United States, would fur
nish unnecessary complications. He
urged upon the house the substitution of
the senate draft which follows closely
the declaration against Germany. Chair
man Flood objected, but agrees to dis
cuss the subject with house committee
members today. Leaders agreed, how
ever, that technical matter would be
smoothed out easily in debate or in con
ference.
House Debate Opens.
Debate in the house on the resolu
tion to declare war on Austria was
opened by Chairman Flood, of the for
eign affairs committee. He asked the
house to pass the resolution unani
mously. The declaration, he said, was
essential to the welfare o fthe allies,
and further, that Austria, in au unre
stricted and ruthless submarine war
fare. had sunk American ships and
i murdered American citizens.
"This is war; war by Austria upon
I this country.” said Mr. Flood. "The
; assault upon these ships and the mur
der of these American citizens was as
much an act of war against this coun
i try as if Austria had landed an army
upon our shores and marched it to this
I city, burning our homes and murder-
I ing our citizens as it came. Our flag
has been insulted, our territorial intes
! rity invaded, the lives of our citizens
taken and to submit would bring Irre
parable injury, loss and suffering to
our people.
“We should accept the gauge of bat
tle from Austria, just as we did from
Germany.” he declared, and dwelt upon
i the moral effect, particularly on Italy.
\ saying it would strengthen the front
' and the whole allied cause.
"Let us pass the resolution speedily,”
he declared, “linking together for over
| whelming defeat the two medieval gov
i ernments which plunged the world into
; war and still stands as the worst ob
i stacle to a just peace among the na
tions."
THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1917.
to know that he is lying on the bottom
of the Atlantic and is not in the hands
of the enemy.”
That was the brave statement of Mrs.
Hood made at her home, 85 East Pine
street, Monday morning, as she realized
fully the fate of her twenty-seven-year
old son.
While Mrs. J. A. Kennedy, 65 Wood
ward avende, has not heard whether her
son. Milton Lamor Snider, is living or
dead, she also declared that she would
prefer him to be drowned than to fall
into the hands of the Germans.
Both Mothers Calm
Both mothers were calm, and behind
their grief there is a feeling of deep
seated pride in the fact that their boys
took part in an exploit which will al
ways be engraved on the memory of
American people.
Harry Hood was killed by the ex
plosion of an instrument that had al
ways had for him a peculiar fascination
—the torpedo. The torpedo was his
toy, he worked with it, studied it, and
gave all his time to it, only to have an
explosion of a torpedo result in his
death.
It was seven years ago that the lure
of the sea led Harry Hood, of Atlanta,
to enlist. His first ship was the Paul
Jones, a torpedo boat destroyer, and
while on this ship he exhibited such
unusual skill in handling the torpedo
he was sent to a torpedo school at
Newport. R. 1., where he studied the
delicate mechanism of the Whitehead
and Bliss torpedoes.
He was later assigned as chief gun
ner’s mate on the Jacob Jones, a member
of the flotilla that left immediately
ofter the declaration of the war for
the war zone, and two- months ago he
stood and passed an examination as
warrant officer, which is practically
the highest step the enlisted man can
take. Harry Hood had a bright future
in the navy.
During seven years of separation,
young Hood wrote weekly letters home,
and cheerful, happy, enthusiastic letters
they were, reflecting his spirit and
good humor, his close attention to his
work, his progress and his ambition,
%*he last letter received by his mother
came Friday, and in this message he
stated that he expected to soon go into
port.
Brother Also in the I»vy.
Houston Hood,, a brother of Harry, is
also in the navy and is now on a receiv
ing ship in the Brooklyn navy yard.
He has been in the navy for Three
years.
Besides his mother and his brother
in the navy, the dead seaman is sur
vived by another brother, Edwin Hood,
who lives at the Winecoff hotel, and one
sister, Mrs. J. B. Cavendish, who lives
at 85 East Pine Street. .
Mrs. Hood is a gray-haired, mother
ly woman, who is devoted to her chil
dren. “I gave him to my country,” she
said, “’and what greater cause could he
have died for?”
Milton Lamar Snider was a route car
rier for The Journal before he enlisted
in the navy ten years ago. He is
twenty-six years old, and his mother,
Mrs. J. A. Kennedy, and one brother,
Charles A. Snider, are now living at 55
Woodward avenue.
Snider has enjoyed unusual exper
iences since entering the navy, having
sailed around the world with Sampson’s
fleet in 1905. He crossed the equator
on his birthday. January 5, 1905.
Mrs. Kennedy hasn't seen her sailor
boy in three years. He ate Christmas
dinner with her in 1914. and two weeks
ago she received her last letter from
him, in which he wbote that he was
well and happy and anxious to fight.
Young Snider has been a gunner’s
mate and a rcep sea diver, showing re
markable skill as a diver.
Atlantians can well appreciate the
feelings of this mother as she waits to
hear the details of the disaster and
learn whether her son is dead or alive.
