WATER SITUATION IS ACUTE
Madili and Wauiil,a Face Serious Con-
dition; Drouth Stops Flowing.

Special to The World.
HINGlING. Okla, Act 2S.-The
shortage OF water in southern Okla
homa has become serious. The towns
of Waurka and Madill are practically
facing a famine. Road work has been
delayed in nearly every county. Fan
plowing cannot he done and there ia
q discodraging aspect In the outlook
for a crop next year. The dry fall,
however. has favored the picking OF
cotton and the crop Is now practically
three-fouIths gathered.
At Waurika, Beaver creek, which
has contained an emergency supply
OF water, is dry and only well at the
ice plant IL available 1t furnishes
enough water for fire protection.
Bonds OF $4,000 have been voted
there to impound water in Beaver
creek reservoir.
Probably twenty miles OF the high
way from Ringing TO oklahoma city
would have been constructed at the
south end but for dry soil. Improve
ment OF the Chisholm trail toward the
south end has been delayed. Dust
holes try the patience of motorists on
every road

SUGAR HELD FOR THE
NEUTRALS TAKEN OVER
Administration Secures OPP
tions at Higher Figure
Than Domestic Rate.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.--Options
have been taken by the food adminis-
tration upon all the sugar belonging to
neutral countries held in this country
awaiting export. This was disclosed
tonight in a statement by the adminis-
tration, denying published reports that
IL was trying to force the neutrals, un-
able 20 get licenses. to sell their sugar
at n loss
The options are at the prices paid
by the neutral. No figures were given.
but the administration said that with
tariff duty added. the average price
would be so cents a hundred higher
than the price II has undertaken to
maintain for the benefit of the Amer
lean consuming public. There Is no
indication Of an intention to permit
the cost to the public to be increa sed.
30 probably few of the options will
be exercised for domestic use.
No Restrictions Made.
The administration emphatically de-
nicd that 1t had placed any restriction
upon the sale OF sugar by neutrals to
American manufacturers. The only
purpose in limiting sale to manufac-
turers' the statement says. was to
avoid disturbing the general market,
anu 'huS tiiiiIiHdtc tHe ltttSSlty OF
consumers paying more than the basis
liked by the government. OF the 26,-
500 tons Of sugar released to the
American market by France last week
TO relieve the temporary shortage In
the eastern states, the administration
said 10000 recently had been bought
10y France from neutrals and the re-
mainder had been acquired mostly
thru the British royal commission in
this country. IL was available sooner
because II was necessary permission
not only from France and the British
commission. but from the neutrals in
volved.
No Need OF Alarm.
There is no need for undue haste
in This matter" the administration
statement adds, "inasmuch as no one
is really suffering from the tempo
rary sugar shortage" Enforced con-
servation is not an unmixed evil, ii
was added, as it brings to the attention
of the American public, in n not harm
ful way, the vital necessity OF conserv-
ing food products. America will have
but one or two weeks OF scarcity of
sugar, while Europe has had three
years Of such shortage.

SOME INHERITED FEARS
Man Is Afraid of Things That Should
Not Scare Him.

"T went to see Jim Smilax get mar
ried yesterday" said Loper. land he
was a pitiable spectacle. He was all
wilted, and the sweat ran off him in
streams. Had he been in the hands of
the eXecutioner he couldn't have been
scared worse. It's queer thing. Smi-
lax had more cool courage than any
man | know, and he'd face a polar
bear without displaying cold feet, but
a little thing like getting married was
too much for him."
at certainly Is queer thing" ad
mitted Gamboge, "and doubtless we'd
have to go back to the stone age to
find an explanation.
MAN is. afraid of many things
which shouldn't scare him for min

Judge at a baby show and had dozen
disappointed mothers seething around

kers, and | was as calm as | am at

why should a man be afraid to
stand up before his fellow citizens and
turn loose his sentiments? Probably
some ancestor of mine, back in the
interglacial times. was swatted over
the head with spiked club while
discussing the living issues of the day
at some crossroads schoolhouse. and
the shock affected all succeeding gem
erations.
"It is but a little while since dem
tistry was in the same class with
blacksmithlng. Men who are waxing
old can remember when a visit TO the
dentists office was something that
appalled, the stoutest heart. IL was
the last resort. A victim of toothache
would suffer until the last limit was
reached before he'd consent to have
any dental work done. and no rea-
person can blame him.
when / was young the village dem
tist man-handled me two or three
times, extracting teeth with a hammer
and cold chisel. My own boys have
such a dread of the dentist that have
to get the police to help me when II
is necessary to take them to his Of
rice. There is no apparent reason for
II. The modern dentist makes tooth
pulling n luxury. 1t Is better than an
outing in the woods.
IL suppose It will take several thou
sand years to educate the fear of dem
tistry out of the human race.

BIG FEDERAL PROBLEM IN
"MOONSHINING" IS SEEN
Ideal Locations for Stills in lilly Sec
tons Found in Parts OF
State.

Special to The World.
BAKTLESNILLE. okla, oct. IS
Oklahoma will never be a "bone dry"
state any more than Kansas, altho the
Sunflower state has had IA prohibition
law for 30 years. While federal, state
and city officers In eastern Oklahoma
are gradually driving out the bootleg
gers, or at least, stopping shipments
into the state, the whiskey dealers
smile at the efforts of officers to stop
the sale of booze and make Oklahoma
n barren section. For ''moonshine"
plants and whiskey plants will spring
up like sunflowers on prairie land, and
the federal government will have an
other big problem on ITS hands.
Ideal Locations.
There are few states in the country
that afford better opportunities for IL
licit stills to engage in the business,
for back In the mountain Businesses
of The Usage mountains, kiamichi
mountains and Spavinaw hills plants
could operate for months without de-
lection. There are many sections In
these mountains where "A white man
has never set foot, and where II wouio
be as dangerous for officers to ap-
proach as 1t would be for allied sol
diers TO approach the German trenches
