PUBLICITY FOR SLACKERS.

"Wheatless and Meatless Days in
every restaurant, hotel and boarding
house in Oregon should no longer be
a theory, but fact"
This is the declaration of Acting
Food Administrator w. X. Newell,
who intends to see that the light of
publicity is turned upon all eating
places which do not observe the
Hoover rules on meatless Tuesdays
and wheatless Wednesdays.
There is no longer any excuse for
not observing the simple requirement
of the United States Food Admins
tration,' said Mr.. Newell. "The
public is now familiar with the Hoov-
er rules and its purpose, and is CIV
ing its hearty support to the eating
places observing the wheatless and
meatless days. 1t is even becoming
critical and resentful of places which
do not do so. We have received a
number of complaints from different
parts of the State in regard to res
taurants and hotels not making any
attempt to observe the wheatless and
meatless days. We are now making
list of these unpatriotic places with
view to publishing their names in
their own communities. The patriot
c spirit of the public can be depend
ed upon to do the rest
Mr. Newell suggests that in those
localities which are distant from the
fish market, poultry and cheese dish,
es be used as substitute for meat on
meatless days. Vegetable luncheons,
for which several kinds Of vegetables
attractively arranged, are served on
one plate, and which are now becom-
ing so popular in the first-class ho-
tells and clubs of Portland, are also
satisfactory meat substitutes.

Drunkenness on Increase.
According to Chief White there
has been more drunkenness during
the past ten days than ever before In
the history Of the city. the imbibers,
seemingly, trying to drink the state
dry before 1t goes that way by law.
Yesterday there were 1913 cases Of
drunkenness on the docket. The
liquor dealers are also said to feel
that they have more license during
the last days of the wet regime than
they would otherwise have.
"If the drunkenness increases"
concluded the chief, those persons
desiring to fall by the wayside and
spend the night in Jail will have to
phone and reserve room. as the
cells are taxed to capacity at pres

Salt Lake City, July 26.-The fed

hand in the local liquor situation by
investigating the report that small
dealers in the city were selling vast
quantities of liquor to persons who
were stocking up. and caught several
retailers at the practice, including
some Of the leading hotels of the
city.
The federal law provides that any
retailer that sells more than five gal
Ions of liquor to one purchaser shall
hold wholesale license. The fine
for violation Of this statute is $500.

the investigation and warned all Of
the dealers that they must discor-
tinue wholesaling liquor or pay the
penalty. 1t is said that every dealer
in the city is being closely watched.
The Newhouse hotel, which has
thousands Of dollars worth Of fine
wines in it's cellars. has hired ?
deputy sheriff to stand guard over
the stores. fearing that employees
may spirit away some of the valuable

LIQUOR Dealers Get
Warning; Federal
Officers Keep Watch

Men. youns and old, have recent
ly been noticed to board their home
ward-bound street car evening after
evening with the same kind of pack
age under their arms. a package that
in no wise resembled meat or bread
or household provender. but looked
suspiciously like a bottle. From the
careful manner in which they han
died the package 1t was easy to guess
that 1t was fragile one. Some o.
the men cast furtive looks about
them.
OF late automobiles that do not

have been calling at residences In
the city delivering large bundles that
appear to be very heavy.

indicate the unloading Of barrels that
did not appear to contain flour at
the back doors Of various cafes and
restaurants. OF course these barrels
may have contained potatoes or some
other precious article Of food and
then again they may have contained
something else.
These various facts have led the
police to believe that many are stock

is coming and they are keeping a
close eye on all suspicious persons.
