Attorney General Thomas H. Peoples
the Rev. julius T. Loeb, rabbi o1

letter to the attorney general, excerpts
from which were recently published IN
this correspondence, in which the
writer. Charleston man, contendeC
that the quart-a-month law was un'
constitutional in that every Jew "shal
have the privilege to order at least
one gallon of liquor for his own per

the attorney general so to hold. "He
who presumes to make such state
ment is certainly an irresponsible anu
reckless character" says Rabbi Loeb
"and it is regrettable that such thing
should have been brought into the
public prints"
Rabbi Loeb states the reasons why
he says "the Jews are known to be
opposed to legislative prohibition,
sand yet" he says, whenever condl-

pality or State to have prohibition in
vogue, the true Israelite will bow his
head with respect to the public de-
mand'
The letter to which Rabbi Loeb
takes exception was published IN the

After q careful study Of results re-
ported both from the laboratory and
the field, the Home Economics Depart
ment Of the State College of Agriculture
recommends as the surest way of can
ming peas, beans, corn, pumpkin,
squash, green's and asparagus the use
OF the intermittent, or three-day.
method Of sterilization. instead OF the
continuous, or one period, method, ex-
cept where steam pressure is used.
These particular vegetables require
special treatment, for three reasons:
They are closely packed and therefore
difficult to penetrate by heat; they lack
the acid which protects tomatoes and
the fruits from bacterial attack, and
they are likely to have on them certain
soil bacteria, which form resistance
spores. These spores are often diff
cult to destroy by boiling in the water
bath, even for long continued period.
A case is reported on good authority
in which active bacteria were found
in corn which had been boiled continu-
ously in the water bath for twelve
hours.
The intermittent method Of steriliza-
ton calls for boiling the vegetables in
the water bath after they have been
placed in the jars an hour each day for
three days. This allows alternate pc
RODS OF rest, in which the dormant
resistance spores may lay off their
heavy protective will and begin active
growth. In tho growing state the bac-
terra are easily destroyed by the next
period OF boiling. For quart and two
quart jars a daily boiling of one and q
half to two hours Is recommended.

Control of Exports
Taken From Redheld

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The Presi-
dent by executive order to-day trans
ferred the Administration control OF
exports from the Exports Council, of
which Secretary Redfeld of the De-
partment of Commerce was chairman,
to the administrative board of the
council, which is headed by Vance c.
Mccormick. The administrative board
comprises besides Mr. Mccormick, who
represents the Department of State,
DR.. Allison +. Taylor, representing the
Department of Agriculture; J. B.
White, the Food Administration, and
Thomas d. Jones, the Department Of
Commerce.
The Shipping Board will have repre-
sentation on the Administrative Board,
but Chairman Hurley has not yet Sc
lected the man for the post. He stated
to-day that he was trying to get prac-
teal shipping man to accept the place.
To-day's change in the export control
administration means that the Admin
istrative Board, which up to this time
has been advisory to the Export Coun-
Gil, will now become the predominant
body. The Export Council itself will
become little more than a formal or
ganizstion.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-08-23

Democrats did not intend to block any
food control legislation. =.
THE original Whitman bill is, Of
course, the best BILL" said Senator Wag-
ner, "but II il is impossible 20 get this
bill through the Democrats may be
willing to accept the bill the Governor
now wants" .,
Several amendments will be offered
70 the food bill in the Assembly to-mor-
row. One by Colonel Wells, of Brook
lyn, will specifically mention milk as
one Of the necessaries 70 be placed un-
der the control of the proposed COM
mission. Colonel Wells said that the
Governor had agreed 70 accept this
amendment. He declared that in view
of the continually mounting price OF
milk and the importance OF this prod
uct there should be no doubt that milk
came under the jurisdiction of the food
control commission. Another amend
ment will probably call for the estao-
lishment by the state of pasteurization
plants in the various cities.
Senator Brown reiterated his belief
tonight that in spite of the objection
of New York City the provision in the
bill for the purchase OF market ter
n1inals for the cities, to be paid for half
by the state and half by the cities, can
not be improved upon. He held that
New York City would lose money by
purchasing its market terminals with
out state aid, and that because Of the
proximity to its debt limit it could not
afford TO do this.
Mayor Mitchell and the New York City
authorities had protested that for the
state to pay half of the cost of the mar.
kets for the cities, New York City would
be paying nearly 20 per cent Of this
cost, and an amendment was proposed
that the cities pay for their market ter
minals without state aid.
During the brief legislative session,
Senator James A. Foley, a New York
Democrat, introduced bill to appro-
pirate 100000 for the erection of a
dehydration plant and to provide means
for encouraging the study Of scientific
drying processes.

Illinois Retail Coal
Prices Are Promptly Cut

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-The Consumers
Company, Of Chicago, said 70 be one Of
the largest retail coal dealers in the
world, to-day announced a slash OF
from 81 to $3.50 on soft coal, effective
Immediately. This is In line with the
price fixed by President Wilson. Other
dealers will make similar cuts at once,
it was said. 1t was estimated the re-
ductions would cut Chicago's coal bill
by s3O,OO0,OOO.
Il was announced that coke had been
increased 10 cents a ton. the change
having been due to increased produc-
ton costs which would have forced the
raise September ! in any event.
Illinois officially recognized prices
for coal in this state. fixed by Presi-
dent Wilson, when Governor Frank o.
Lowden to-day telegraphed congratu-
lations to the President on his action.
The Governors telegram says:
please accept my heartiest congrat-
ulations upon your action yesterday IN
the coal matter. You have saved Amer
lea from a situation which would have
greatly embarrassed us in the conduct
Of this war, such as has embarrassed
every belligerent nation Of Europe"

Men and Women


KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 22.-Draft-
ing Of unemployed laborers for work
upon farms, the importation Of Next
can labor, improved labor conditions
and the control Of the supply of seed
wheat were suggestions made for the
increase in wheat acreage at the Mid
die Western regional wheat and rye
conference, which was held here to
day, at the request Of Secretary
Houston of the Department of Agri-
culture.
Many Of the representatives report
ed a shortage of labor, duo to the
draft Che use Of improved farm ma
chinery and tractors as a means of
eliminating labor was also discussed.
Nebraska representatives. told of the
organization of the schoolboys of that
state into harvesting association.
The Oklahoma delegates declared
that the |. w. w. constituted a men,
ace to the labor situation in that state
which must be met. Colorado is pro-
viding laborers with transportation
and positions through a state bureau,
its representatives asserted.
r. A. Oakley, chairman Of the Seed
Stocks Committee of the Department
of Agriculture, advised the organiza-
ton OF state and county committees
to supply the required amount of wheat
for fall planting.
A committee to frame resolution
asking for a law drafting all unem-
ployed men and women for war emer-
gency work was appointed. A second
committee TO draft recommendation
for marketing and milling plans was
also designated. The thirteen states

ever, and will not discuss the forthcom-
ing appointment.
The call to the operators for an
emergency meeting is regarded here as
a forerunner of an effort to induce the
President to revise the scale of coal
prices as soon as the permanent coal
policy is perfected. In fact, is is very
probable that the Pittsburgh meeting
will appoint committee for that pur-
pose or designate the committee on
coal production TO present their claims.
The members of the executive COM
mittee Of the association, which issued
the call for the operators meeting, are
the FOLLOWING:
II. n. Taylor, Kansas City; E. c.
Honnold, Chicago; H. W. Ogle, Terre
Haute; George n. Barker, Columbus,
Ohio; Rembrandt Peale, New York; j.
H. Wheelwright, Baltimore; Howell j.
Leavis. Knoxville, Tenn; w. X. Field,
Pittsburgh, and J. j. Tierney, Phila-
delphia.
The text of the call sent out ad-
dressed to all bituminous coal operat-
ors, associations and individual oper-
atinp concerns, not members of coal
operators associations, is as follows:
an view of the action of the Pres
ident wieh reference 70 the bituminous
coal industry of the country as re-
ported in the morning press, it is
deemed Of the greatest Importance that
the coal producers Of the United States
meet as soon as possible for the pur-
pose of discussing and considering the
abnormal conditions under which the
industry is now asked to labor.
