This is the substance in brief Of q

address delivered in ST. Andrews
cathedral Sunday evening by Chaplain
II. l.. Winter, T. S. A., Of the LIST Inf,

has been in Hawaii a little more than
two months but already has begun to
put into active operation a broad pro-
gram for the benefit Of the enlisted
man, and his address at the cathedral
vas devoted largely to the emphasiz-
ing the urgent need Of closer cooper

army.
Need Of Church Policy
Regarding the policy of the church
towards the army, Chaplain Winter
pointed out that, while the church has
definite policies for every branch
home missions, foreign missions and
civil nfe-it has absolutely no definite
policy for carrying on work in the
army.
He declared that the army chap
lain often has been Disseminated
against; that bills have been introduced
to practically take away his commits.
And If this were done, he said, 1t
would be decidedly harmful to the
work of the church for the army. !
His belief was that Episcopal chap
lains' should have a voice in the gen.

HOW ABOUT A MARKET?

4 (From the Garden Tsland)
With hat in hand, respectfully and with all
humility, We would like to know if it would not be
feasible, in our community, to establish an open
market which would be a sort of general clearing
house for the sale of food products grown here.
And we would farther like to know whether this
would not be convenience for all concerned. The
raising of food products is only onehaf of the prob
lem, the disposng of them is the other half. To be
sure there are peripatetic pedders of few common
vegetables that mostly come when you don't want
them, and mostly bring the things that you've no
for and vet feel that you take for fear that
they may never come again; but these peddlers don't
by any means cover the needs of the community,
either the buyers or the growers

FEEDING PRISONERS IN GERMAN
CAMPS

Until recently soldiers of the allies held
in the prison camps of Germany, Jared very
badly because of the German policy of
giving war prisoners Inadequate food.
Russia and the Balkan states could not ar
range to ration the prisoners of their
nationalities and the death rate among
them was consequently very high. France
AID England with more efficient organiza-
tons, have established a food supply
through Switzerland and send rations into
Germany every five days for their soldiers
who are held captive. Americans who are
iii German prison camps fare better than
any of the other captives, as they are being
supplied with food through the American
Ecd Cross, with the consent of the German
government. There are about one hun
.ired American prisoners in Germany, most
of them being civilians taken from ner-
chant ships and few gunners from vessels
sunk by submarines. They receive ration
regularly and are we'll provided for in the
way OF clothing.
For a time it was feared that prisoners
could not be rationed without at the same
time supplying Germany with food, but
that problem seems to have been solved.
Postcards are enclosed in each package and
as % per cent of the cards signed and
returned, it is shown that little of the food
is diverted into other channels.
In addition to supplying American pris
oners the Red Cross is aiding the starving
1nultitudes in the Balkans and in Armenia
and Syria. Its activity in that direction
is growing in Importance daily and from
a humanitarian viewpoint equals it's work
in caring for the men wounded on the
batt1eheds.
German prisoners held by the anes, as
we'll as Germans interned in America, are
receiving the best possible care and Ger
many seems to at last realize that the treat
ment accorded its subjects in other coun-
tries requires that the allies at least be al
lowed to properly feed their soldiers in
German prison camps and to care for help
less women and children who have been
reduced to starvation by German ruthless
ness.

SELECTIVE EATING MEANS
PLENTY

Adapting our diets is of much more inn
i;ortance than reducing the amount of our
food consumption, says Carl Nrooman in
discussing the food conservation program.
1t IS not so much the quantity of food we
eat, but the saving of certain kinds of food
that will count in adding to the supplies
for our fighting forces and for our allies.
Everyone knows that our armies and the
armies of France, England. Belgium, Italy,
Russia, and Our lesser allies as we'll, de-
pend largely upon us for their food al
that the kind of food we send them will
have an important bearing on their eff
cheney.
America is willing to save. but the only
kind of food that it will do any good to
save is the kinds can send to Europe
There is abundance of food in this
country-plenty for us and for those de-
pendent on us-if we use intelligent dis
elimination in selecting the kinds of food
we eat.
We must be sparing of wheat because
that is the chief food grain of the world
and can be exported at low cost but we
may use freely of corn, as Europe is not

law will prevent the manufacture of
whiskey at the time it usually starts
on a large scale, the latter part of
September.
Stopping whiskey manufacture, in.
stead of curtailing the governments
revenues, will increase them for the
next two years, officials believe. Cou-
pied with the operation of the pend
ing revenue bill, the withdrawal of
whiskey from the stock alreadv accu-
mulated will probably treble the rev.
enues within the next twelve months,
as the present law imposes tax of
S1.10 and the revenue bill contem-
plates a tax of $500 gallon. A
stock of approximately 23O,OOO,OO0
gallons has accumulated in the bond
ed warehouses and on the shelves of
wholesale and retail liquor dealers.
Approximately 190,000,000 gallons
are in warehouses and upon that
quantity the government will collect
taxes as it is withdrawn.
Few men will be thrown out of
work by the operation of the law. Dis
tilleries now running will continue to
produce alcohol for commercial pur-
poses with little change in their
forces Upon this class of alcohol
with the exception of alcohol for de-
naturiZation, the revenue bill would
impose a tax of 1920, doubling the
present income from this source.
There are approximately 700 distil-
leries in the country, of which more
than half are small fruit brandy
plants. The amount of capital invest
ed in the latter class is not great in
the aggregate. The capital invested
in the big producing plants mounts
high into the millions. Officials here
believe that losses will be more than
wiped out by the greatly higher
prices distillers will obtain for their
product, already manufactured. In
the opinion of some officials whiskey
will be selling at SIS gallon withis
twelve months, affording distillers
enormous profits which will more
than compensate for the loss of CAPT
tai invested in plants.
At the same time the plants will
continue to operate on an approx
mate sixty per cent production basis
making commercial alcohol. A ire
mendous growth in the use of COM
mercial alcohol is anticipated which
in time may result in the demand for
a quantity of alcohol at least as large
as the present output for all pur-
poses

PLAY UP FEATURES
FEDERAL EXPORT
CONTROL CLEARLY

All the vital features of govern
ment export control, stripped of their
legal verbiage so that the busy man
may grasp them quickly are explain
ed in the pamphlet "The Regulation
of Exports Under the Espionage Act"
which has just been issued by the
Guaranty Trust Company of New
York
This pamphlet, which is of partic-
ular Importance to those concerned
in foreign trade, contains the list of
articles which cannot be exported
without licenses, and makes clear the
restrictions governing the two dis
tinct classes of exports under govern
ment regulation. One of these classes
relates to the shipment of articles to
the enemy and to European neutral
countries; the other to certain COM
modities whose export is prohibited
to countries other than those named
in the first class. A list of destina-
tions to which shipments are not per-
mitted, and a list of those to which
shipments are allowed under licenses,
are included. How and where licenses
may be obtained, and the nature of
the information required to fill out
the forms of application are ,..so
clearly outlined.
The Guaranty Trust Company an
nounces that its foreign trade divis
ion is prepared to furnish information
relating to the new rulings and pro-
cedure of the exports administrative
board as they are issued.
