Code Book Stolen and Ship Sinkings Rise
Washington September 13 President Wilson was urged by the American Honey Livestock association to adopt a national livestock policy covering production and distribution. A joint committee of the Department of Agriculture and the Food Administration was suggested to formulate such a policy. Dwight I Beard said the divide between production and distribution caused unsatisfactory conditions, noting producers and labor enjoy protections while packers and other industries profit. In New York a Portuguese consular attache Jose C Moniz was arrested on suspicions tied to a stolen cipher book. Secret service and justice department men searched Moniz’s room and found papers identified as stolen from the Portuguese consul general. The consul alleged the papers showed shipping dates and routes being passed to German submarines, leading to increased sinkings of Portuguese ships. Moniz faces charges for possession of government papers. he had lived in the US for ten years and was active in Spanish and Portuguese circles. A final quip notes the proverb about honesty and laziness.
