Salvation Army, who has been inves-
tigating European war charities as a

price for imported sugar throughout
next year.
In order that sugar may reach the
dealer without intermediate speCula-
tive profits between the producer and
the retailer, the wholesale grocers OF
America have voluntarily agreed with
the food administration to limit dis
tributiOn charges in such a manner
as TO eliminate the possibility OF spe-
culatiye or exOrbitant profits, and the
food administration will be able at a
later date 10 announce the price at
which wholesale sugar should be de-
livered to the large consuming cen
tiers of the country. 1t will then be
for the, consumers themselves TO see
that they receive just treatment from
the retail dealer.

seaport refining points. such as New
York, Philadelphia, New Orleans, BOs-
ton and San Francisco.
1t is the intention Of the food ad
ministratiOn to adopt certain mea-
sures which will effectually assure
that this price shall not be exceeded
during the coming year even upon
imported sugar and it is hoped that
as soon as the Cuban crop is avail
able, the price will be less than 1925.
1t is desirable for the public to bear
in mind, the food administration
points. out, that in order for the Al.
lies to be supplied with sugar, from
the West Indies in place of their
usual source. of supply, which is now
cut off, the public must reduce its
consumption of sugar by every means
possible. That there is room for re-
duction in consumption without hard
ship must be evident when we con-
slider that the average American con-
sumption is about s. pounds per per-
son per annum, whereas the new sugar
regulations in England limit the con.
sumption to 81 pounds per person per
annum
This year, the beet sugar crop will
not be moving freely in the country
before the first of October and there
fore there will be a few weeks delay
before the reduced price becomes eff
feetive. This affords an opportunity
for distributors and retailers to dis
pose of sugar purchased by them at a
higher cost level.

senate chamber at the capitol. Follow.
ing the precedent established by
Washington there will be placed in a
proper receptacle there approximately
5000 gelatin capsules.
In each Of these capsules will be
placed a number, printed on paper,
and these numbers will run serially
from l to approximately 5000. They
will be drawn from the receptacle one
at time by blindfolded person and
handed to an announcer, who will
open the capsule and read the number
aloud. The number so read will be
recorded by three separate tally
clerks.
These capsule numbers are the num-
bers which have been attached to
the registration cards in a serial or
der. The registration cards have
been shuffed thoroughly before be-
ing numbered. AS an example Of how
the drawing will work out, Mr.. Green
cites the following:
John Smith. for instance, who may
have registered in the Fifth precinct

registration certificate which bore a
number which we will call Is.
"This number IS has reference only
to the county registration organiza-
ton and is for the sole purpose OF
identifying his certificate.
after the cards have been thor.
oughly shuffed they will each re-
ceive a serial number, commencing
with one, and in this series of serials
the card of John Smith may receive
a number which we will call $50. This
is called the red ink number.
when this number is drawn from
the receptacle and announced, the or
der in which it is drawn will be the
order number for examination. In
other words, If this number $50 had
been in the goth capsule drawn from
the receptacle, John Smith will be the
goth to report for examination in his
district. Similarly the other FIVE men
with red ink number $50 in their dis
tricts. will report as No. 20 each for

WASHINGTON. D. G., Sept. =
There will be an immediate reduction
in the ocean freight rates being
charged shippers on American vessels.
The reduction will be sweeping and
tn new rates will show a great cut
over these aow in force.
This was announced yesterday. fol-
lowing the announcement that the
shipping board proposed to assume at
once the control OF the rates to be
charged for freight on ocean going
craft under the American flag.
The new scale decided upon by the
shipping board, to be put into force
with the least possible delay, calls
for reductions in the different classes
Of freight up TO 75 per cent in some
cases and tn not less than 80 per cent
in any case.
May Seize Idle Neutrals
Because of the requirements OF the
war and the necessity of commander
ing many Of the zroomiest and fastest
of American liners for transport and
supply purposes, a shortage of Ameri-
can bottoms for general purposes IS
foreseen.
This contingency is being seriously
considered by the shipping board,
which may eventually seize a large
number Of the neutral vessels now tied
up in American ports unwilling to en-
ter the Atlantic trade for Europe
without exorbitant charters. The own
ers claim that the dangers of the bust
ness will not justify them in accepting
anything but the highest Of freight
rates. s
II is estimated that there are avail
able 100000 tons Of such neutral ship
ping which the government may take
over ..-- ... -.
