Public Urged to Conserve.

There appears to be difference of
opinion among dealers as to the effec-
tiveness Of the system of emergency
orders in operation by direction of Ad-
ministrator Weaver. Some dealers In
sist that what they term red tape
delays the delivery of coal, while others
approve heartily of the scheme as a
preventive of boarding.
There was agreement in opinion
among dealers today that If the public
will only remain calm and not seek to
obtain coal beyond early needs, and If
there is no serious interference with
railroad traffic or mine operations, the
situation can be handled with the mini
mum of suffering. But it should be
borne in mind. they say. that there are
TO reserve stocks of coal in Washing
ton, and the cutting off of supplies
would bring on a crisis within a few
days. The situation in which the cold
wave finds the city. they assert, is all
the proof needed of the absolute neces-
sity Of economy in coal consumption,
and those who have not been economic
ing in the past had better begin at
once.

POLICE TAKING A HAND

Registrants who have not yet re-
turned their questionnaires are asked
by local boards to redouble their Wig
lance in properly filling out and COM
pleteIy preparing the documents.
Scores of questionnaires are being re-
ceived daily by the eleven local boards
lacking, answers not completed, or the
registrant's affidavit unmade.
Many Are Using Pencils.
Many questionnaires. despite warn
ing. continue to come in filled out with
pencil. Ink is required, according TO
the selective service regulations. as
plainly stated on the questionnalre It
self. Local boards that live up to the
regulations will be forced to summon
before them registrants who used PEN
Gil instead of pen and ink and nave
such registrants either go over the
pencil with ink or fill out another en-
tire questionable
Commissioner Brownlow. who pre-
sided at a meeting of all local board
officials held last night at the District
building, was warm in his praise today
of the way the work of registration is
being carried on by the boards. At the
meeting board members discussed their
problems and considered ways and
means, under the regulations. for com
pleting the great task OF classification.
Officials Pleased at Order.
Board officials today expressed salts
faction over the order of the provost
marshall general yesterday to the effect
that. there will be no more formal calls
for deferred percentages of the present
quota of National Army men before
February Is.
This means. since the District quota
Is filled. that local boards will be re-
lieved. and local registrants will be
relieved of any feeling of uncertainty
about another call until February Is. at
least 1t is taken to be certain that,
as long as the cold weather lasts, with
some of the camps and their quotas
therein still in need of certain equip
nent, the War Department will put
no more troops into the environments
until the cold season breaks
Many states still have deferred per-
centages to send to camps, which now
viii not be sent until February Is or
later.

Washington, March 6.-President
Wilson, having proclaimed to the
world In his second inaugural ad-
dress the principles that will guide
the ULited States If it becomes In
volved in the world war, Is consider
ing what steps he will take to protect
Americans and American ships from
the German submarine menace. The
question of arming American ships to
repel submarine attacks, notwith-
standing the failure of Congress to
confer upon the President this spe-
cific authority, will be discussed and
possibly decided by President Wilson
and his cabinet. Attorney General
Gregory has given the President an
offhand opinion that the executive
possesses the authority in his own
right to supply American ships with
defensive armament and that the al
most forgotten statute of 1873, provid-
ing that American merchantmen might
defend themselves from attacks by
any vessels except the warships of a
friendly power, creates no bar to the
provision of defense against German
submarines.
Cabinet members contend that Ger
man submarines are now guilty of pi-
ratical attacks on American ships,
whereas the statute of 1919 contem-
plated that the warships of friendly
powers would observe the rules of
maritime warfare. The prohibition of
defense against warships, therefore, Is
said not to apply to German sub
marines.
Upon the decision of the Cabinet on
the arming of American merchantmen
will depend to large extent the Presl-
dents conclusion as to the necessity
Of calling an extra session of Con-
gress. II the President decides to pro-
ceed on his own authority he will be
disposed to postpone summons OF
the new Congress pending his effort
to establish a cloture rule in the Sen
ate preventing repetition of the fill

Diet, Exercise or Death +!

An eminent medical authority writes
that most Of our city folks die of thick
ening Of the arteries or of kidney dis
ease. The kidneys become clogged and
do not filter the poisons from the blood,
and one trouble follows another, high
blood pressure damages the heart, arteries
and kidneys. Usually its danger signals
are backache, pain here or there, swollen
feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or
spots appearing before the eyes.
"The very best remedy is this: Eat
meat but once day, or not at all. Plenty
of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals take q
little Anuric, the great uric acid neu-
trailer that is easily obtained at the
drug store. When you have dizziness,
chills or sweating. worry, or dragging
pains in back, try this wonderful enemy
TO uric acid, which DR.: Pierce Of Buffalo,

Anuric, more potent than lithia, dissolves
uric acid as hot water does SUGAR"
