l but the machinery should imme- diately be created to move quickly and effectively when the time is ripe.
 After these pledges are signed and sent to MT. Hoover in Washington there will be returned to each signer household tag, to be placed in the window of the home to show that the members of the household have vol unteered for service.
 The food administration will from time to time issue to the signers of the pledges simple instructions for the prevention of household waste and definite information as to the particu- lar foods necessary to be conserved.
 Registration for Service
 It should be clearly understood that the signing of this food pledge as requested by MT. Hoover will not, in any way, interfere with the registra- tion of women for war service, which will be undertaken by the state divi- sion of the Woman's committee. The cards on which such registra. : tion is made will be retained in the town or city where the women are enrolled, so that they may be used as daily guide when calls for woman's service are made Summaries of the | registration will be sent to the state 1 and national headquarters of- the Womans committee and retained there I so that if the government has need of the services which women can of i fer, it will be known definitely what places in the country are qualified to respond to such calls
 If it is possible to issue the regis tration cards in time so that they can reach the states by July 1, it may prove a good plan to have women 1 register their services at the same time they sign MT. Hoover's food pledge. The publicity given to one will react in favor of the other.
 Conclusion
 l There can be no doubt but wha 1 the loyalty and devotion of the womer 1 of this country will lead them en. thusiastically into the plan of thrift l and careful buying, which is not only advisable but is absolutely necessary if countless thousands are to be saved l from starvation.
 There was never a greater challenge to the womanhood of country than that made by the president of tht fl United States to women, for voluntar, enrolment in this league for food con. servation. It is the devotion, courage and economy of the women of Franc, today that is largely helping to keei her armies in the field and save tn, nation from destruction We believ, the American women will show a! fine spirit in this hour of need, ant stand with the women of the allied countries in our fight for liberty ant democracy.
 With every good wish for the sue cessful carrying out of this vital pro gram in your state, believe me, fo woman's committee.
 Very sincerely yours.

special assessment of S1 on each
 member of the society during the present year and authorized the levy ing of special assessment of $2
 if necessary during the next year to meet the payments on death losses directly attributable to the war. Many of the members of the society, both
 men and women, have already volun- teered in the different branches of the military and naval departments and
 others will be undoubtedly called into the service, and the families of all these are now assured that in the
 event of their death every dollar of their insurance will be paid.

 ADDRESSES ARIZONA WOMEN

Outlining the way in which women of Arizona can aid Herbert Hoover to conserve the nation food supply and in the process cut down existing high prices for food, Mrs. Anna How ard Shaw, chairman of the Women's committee of the Council of National Defense has sent to the Arizona State Council of Defense the complete pro- gram of the food saving campaign which is to be inaugurated throughout the United States.
 In every state in the Union, women's organizations have pledged their aid in putting the food saving plan into effect.
 In California the campaign will be conducted under the auspices of the National and State Council of De- fense for Women's work, of which Mrs. H. A. Cable of Los Angeles, pres- ident of the California Federation of Womens clubs, is chairman. Through out the state,-in every city, town and Village-women's clubs have pledged their cooperation to the state organi- Zation in carrying on the fight for food conservation.
 The plan of action, as decided upon by the Council of National Defense, Herbert Hoover and the executive board of Women's committee of the national council, is as follow:
 To the Women of Arizona
 The womens committee sends you herewith some suggestions in regard to cooperation with MT. Herbert c. Hoover in carrying out his plan for food conservation. This letter should have followed immediately the tele- gram sent to you on June IS, but has been delayed until the details of his plan could be thoroughly worked out with MT. Hoover.
 It had not been his intention to have the campaign open at this mo- ment, but quite unknown to MT. Hoo- yer the presidents letter endorsing the suggestion of proceeding with part of the food conservation program be- fore the bill was actually passed in congress, was given to the press late on Saturday night. The matter hay ing become public the campaign for food conservation must he taken up in earnest and pushed vigorously to a successful conclusion.
 Object
 It is literally true that there will not he enough food in the world to maintain the population if present methods are followed. Founded upon this fact the program for food con- servatiOn is briefly stated as follows:
 lst An exact survey of the amount of food on hand in this country so that the amount available for home consumption and exportation to the allies may be accurately known.

LODGE LORE
FraternaI Brotherhood

Possibly the most important su
 preme lodge session ever held by the
 F'raternal Brotherhood was the one recently closed in Los Angeles. Dele
 gates from all over the country as- sembled at the magnificent building owned by the society, on the morn
 ing of June 25, determined to look
 into the causes for the differences that
 had grown up among the supreme
 lodge officers and to settle them. The delegates felt that the interest of the membership was of more importance than the fortunes of any particular
 office holder. Full hearing was held on every subject. After deliberation the actions of the old executive coun- cil were in all things ratified showing
 that the newly elected delegates be-
 lieved that what the council had done was done for the best interests of the society, and for this reason it's action was approved. As further evidence of the wisdom of the council in se- lecting the Hon. Carlos s. Hardy as the supreme president of the society this able, high minded fraternalist was unanimously elected by the dele gates to the position of supreme pres ident for the next four years. MT.

SECRETARY WARNS ARMY
"Soft Snaps" Should Be Given More
sparingly to Men Fit For SerV-
ice, Baker Ayers.

Washington. - So-called Stacker
commissions" by which men of draft
age seek to escape service in the ranks
and get officers places in non-combat-
ant branches of the army have struck
snag in two general policies laid
down by Secretary Baker. These are,
first, that no men of draft age be COM
missioned unless it is shown clearly
that they are better fitted for the spe-
cial work to which they are called than
any civilian beyond the draft age
whose services can be secured; and,
second, that no function of the army
that can be carried on efficiently with
civilians shall be placed on military
footing by commissioning men needed
to supervise the work.

BRITISH TROOPS MAKE GAIN
Fierce Hand-to-Hand Battle Takes
Place During Which Positions Are
Lost BY Enemy.

London.-Fontaine Notre Dame, cap
tured at the beginning of the recent
British drive, but subsequently lost
was the scene of the most bitter hand
to-hand fighting, say late reports.
Unofficial reports from that town,
which is the Cambria area, say the
British have worked up to the main
street, which runs east and west
through the center of the village.
In Bourbon Wood, west of Cambria,
the British have repulsed another Ger
man counter-attack, Field Marshal
Haig's official report said.
= British troops, including some from
London, continued to bore their way
forward through the Hindenburg sup
port line west of Mouevres.
There was vigorous fighting at close
quarters in this region and, as re-
suit, the British were in possession OF
a. further section of support trenches
1000 yards long running east and west
Just south Of Pronville and 1nchy-en-
Artois.
The British advance in the last few
days had made this section of the line
virtually untenable and the Germans
were forced to withdraw when pressed
by.a new attack.

WASHINGTON HOPES
FOR FAVORABLE END
WATcHFUL WAITING MAY SOLVE
- sLAv MUDDLE-UNcLE SAM
TO BE PATIENT.
Outside Pressure Would Cause Resent
ment And Tend To Strengthen
New Radical Regime.

Washington.-Real OF the
great danger of causing a reaction IN
Russia favorable to the Central Pow
ers by Intervention in the political al
fairs of the new democracy has caused
Administration officials here to sound
note of warning against hasty con-
demnation of the Bolsheviki. Back OF
what is described as tolerant policy
in dealing with Russia apparently not
only is a purpose to demonstrate faith
in the ultimate sterilization of the de-
mocracy, but faint hope that the
EXTREMIST faction which is for the mo-
ment in control of the seat of govern
ment at Petrograd, will refrain from
violating Russia's treaty pledge to the
Entente Allies and make separate
peace.
So long as there is q possibility that
these oyertures will fail because OF the
apparently irreconcilable differences
between the Bolsheviki peace scheme
founded on mo annexations and no
indemnities" and the German demands
for compensation and adequate safe
guards for the future" it is regarded
as bad policy to exert any pressure
from the outside at this stage. To do
so, it is believed, would only tend to
cause resentment in Russia and to So
lidify the various elements around the
Petrograd regime. An additional rea-
son for maintaining an attitude OF
watchfulness and reserve in Washing
ton 10 found in the fact that to meet
lust such a situation as is developing
in Russia is one of the purposes OF the
interallied conference assembled in
Paris. There are intimations that sug-
gcstions have reached Washington
from the French capital that it would
be well to avoid adverse criticism here
of the Russian tangle, leaving the
commissioners gathering in Paris TO-
Geal with it at this stage at least.

MRS. De SAULLES ACQUITTED
Jury Soon Renders Verdict Which
Clears Chilean Heiress of Murder
of Her Divorced Husband.

Mineola, N. UT required only one
hour and forty-three minutes for
Jury in supreme court here to reach
verdict of not guilty in the trial OF Mrs.
Blanca de Saulles, beautiful Chilean
heiress, for the murder of her divorced
husband, John L. de Saulles, former
Yale football star and clubman, at his
home near Westbury, Long Island, the
night of August 3.
Mrs. de Saulles, who had maintained
an air of extreme self-possess1on
throughout the two weeks of the trial.
received the verdict smilingly. She
shook hands with each Of the jurors
as they left the box and to each gave
O. nod of appreciation.
"I'm so happy" was the only COM
ment of Mrs. de Saulles.
Mrs. de Saulles' acquittal automa:i-
cally establishes her as the only legal
custodian of her son, John L. de Saul
les, Jr., according to her attorneys.

British Army Headquarters in

eral Byng's drive before Cambria.
1t is now possible to tell the peo-
pie of the United States for the

the marvellous work which has
been accomplished in the way OF
pushing the vital railways up to
the front. The engineers have
been laboring on the roads behind
the British lines for nearly four
months and two of the men who
were wounded were the first
American casualties announced

requirements have made it impos-
sible to mention their presence
here before this time.

FOOD SHOULD HEAD LIST
So Ayers Hoover, in Taking Issue With

Washington.-The first clash in
President Wilson's new American War
Council, which is less than a week old,
came when Herbert c. Hoover, Food
Administrator, openly took issue with
DR.. H. A. Garfield, Fuel Administrator,
on the question OF priority in shipping
orders for the railroads of the coun-
try. Mr.. Hoover says nothing should
be placed ahead of food. DR.. Garfield
asked Judge Lovett, priority director,
for an order calling on the railroads to
handle coal and coke and empty coal
and coke cars in preference to all other
freight commodities.

GOVERNMENT MAKES
PREFERRED COAL LIST
WILL. SERVE AS GUIDE TO
OPERATORS IN FILLING
ORDERS,
Industries Essential to Military ana
Economic Efficiency of Nation
Must Be Attended First.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington. - The Governments
first move toward curtailing non-es-
sential industries during the war was
made when the Fuel Administration
sent to coal producers preferred list
of consumers to serve as guide in
filing orders. The list establishes
preferential shipments for Govern
ment orders, railway fuel, household
requirements, public utilities, steel
plants, coke ovens and munltlon
plants. Although no direct order was
issued requiring operators to give the
list preference, a direct request was
made and Fuel Administration officials
believe it will be followed. The prl-
GRITTY is asked for period of 30 days.
"The requests are designed" said
Fuel Administrator Garfield, "to insure
fulfilling of the requirements of those
coal users whose activities are essen
tial to the military and economic efii'
cheney of the nation in the conduct OF
the war"
To obtain coal for emergency re-
quirements operators were asked to
notify the Fuel Administration imme-
diately of the amounts of their free
tonnage This coal will be used TO
supply communities that run short UNI
expectedly. The preferential lists
went to virtually every operator in
the country, except in the Rocky
Mountain districts, which serve local
consumers. More than 5000 were
mailed. Facing a shortage of 10000
900 tons for the country the Fuel Ad'
ministration determined that a radi-
cal step was necessary if essential in
dustries and public utilities were to
be kept running. 1t turned down sug-
gestions that list of non-essential in
dustries be prepared to which coal
should be denied and established in
stead the preferential list as less like
ly to injure the banking credit OF con-
Germs which it is considered certain
will suffer.
