prepared to bring to, port sufficient ly large catches to fill the abnorna al demand. Such a fleet is now building, but, pending it's delivery, the fishing industry is faced with a terrific de- mand and a meager supply, so far as the popular varieties are concerned. The wholesale dealers, distributing the catch as fast as it reaches port, cannot keep up with the demand on many varieties; and, as a consequence, the price is forced up slightly.
 From this situation the consumer may find relief by use of less well known varieties, and foremost among these are Greyfish and Whiting.

WORKERS NEEDED FOR NAVY YARDS. OF THE COUNTRY.
Skilled Men In Many Differ ent Trades Can Obtain
 Steady Employment

Washington, D. C., Dec. 20.-For many years there have been few addt- tions to the number of navy yards and stations in the United States, but the war has made necessary a consider able increase in our facilities for con- ducting naval operations. |.
 The naval aircraft factory at Phila- delphia, Pa., and the naval operating base at Hampton Roads, Va, have re- gently been completed and are now in full commission. In course of pre- paration are a naval training station at Gulfport, Miss, and submarine bases at New London, Conn, and San Pedro, Cal. It will be noted that these two submarine bases are so situated as to add to the defenses of both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Located close to supplies of steel and coal is the projectile plant at Charleston, W. Va, which is expected to be in opera ton soon after January l. The build inss erected for the exposition at San Diego, Ca, are serving a further use as a training station for the Navy, and thousands of Uncle Sam's recruits
 
 these artistic structures as a base. The whole Navy Yard Service is, of course, humming with activity. There Is shortage of labor, however, in certain lines and ship construction and other work is suffering in con- sequence. Anglesmiths, blacksmiths, !boatbui1ders, canvasworkers, copper smiths, drillers, fabric workers, frame benders, machinists, power sewing machine operators (women), sailmak- CTS, ship draftsmen, shipfitters, ship
 smiths, subinspectors of ordnance, and other mechanics and technical men are badly needed. The United States Civil Service Commission is urging, as a patriotic duty, that persons train ed in these lines offer their services to the government at this time of great need. Representatives of the Civil Service Commission at the post i offices in all cities are giving full in formation and supplying application blanks. No written examinations are required.

 Schedules will be sent to all dealers in food materials, all manufacturers of food products, and all holders of such commodities in lots substantially greater than family supplies Reports, therefore, will be expected from wholesale and retail grocers, bakers, confectioners and all other dealers in commodities food materials; from warehousemen and cold storage con- cerns; from commissaries of institu- tions and commercial and industrial establishments; from exporter; frosm manufacturers employing any food product in their operations; and from representatives of foreign govern ments who buy supplies in this coun- try. The government desires reports even from concerns using foodstuffs as ingredients in products not ordi. narily considered food; from bottlers of sodawater and similar beverages and from chewing gum manufactur- CTS, for example, because of the sugar employed
 Penalties for Failure to Report.
 Altogether, more than three-Quar- ters of a million schedules will be dis tributed. Mailing lists have been pre- pared to cover the field as fully as pos- sible, but some individuals and con- cerns who should make report of food materials held by them undoubtedly have been unavoidably missed. Tho Bureau of Markets therefore is asking each such individual and concern that does not receive a schedule by Jan. 2 to write to the Bureau of Markets. U. s. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., or to any of the many agencies of the bureau through out the country, for copy The local addresses of these agencies are given with each of the three-quarters of a million schedules which are being dis tributed, and may conveniently be obtained by inquiry of any business associate who has received one of the schedules.
 The Act of Congress providing for the War Emergency Food Survey fixed fine not exceeding $1,000 or impris- onment not exceeding one year, or both, as punishment for any individ- ua1 or concern who wilfully fails to make report when requested, or will fully reports incorrectly. The Bureau of Markets, however. counts on the full cooperation of the affected trades and industries, and hopes that there will be very few cases in which it will be necessary to enforce com pliance through prosecution.

MEATLESS MEAL
 IN BIG HOTELS
 CHRISTMAS DAY
Roast Turkey and Roast Goose to Give Way This
 Year to the Grey1sh

If you happen to be eating Christ mas dinner at one of the most luxur- ious New. York hotels this year, you will find yourself eating, not the pro- verbal turkey or roast goose, but greyfish!
 Christmas day is to be strictly ob- served by the best New York hotels as a meatless day; and. to show a true American spirit, the most expensive and exclusive of the hostelries has de- cided to accentuate this fact by using the long -despised and renamed dog fish as the basis for it's menu.
 It might be mentioned that the price per plate of this menu will be three dollars.
 But this use of greyfish betokens more than a mere change of the Christmas menu. It indicates that af- ter years of effort on the part of gov ernment experts. the public is begin ming to take notice of the two white hopes of the fisheries, greyfish and whiting.
 These two varieties, the former long regarded as a destroyer of fishing gear, and the latter as harmless but useless fish, are the two kinds to which, more than to any other, resi- dents of the Eastern part of the coun- try must look for really cheap sea food.
 Pending delivery of the large fleet of steam ttrawlers now building, no radical drop can be expected in the prices of the more widely popular varieties.
 While it is quite true that there are plenty of fish in the sea, it is also true that there is no equipped fleet

 Washington, Dec IS - The most comprehensive inventory of food re- sources in the Unitsd States ever made tho War Emergency Food Survey, provided for by Congress be started within the next few days, when the ffrst batch of the more than fhreezQuaxters of g million schedules or Questionnaires to be sent out will be placed in the mails.

A separate schedule Will be sent to a representa- tive number of specially selected homes throughout the country. and upon returns from these an estimate will be made for all homes.
 The approaching survey follows preliminary inventory for a limited number of food items made Aug. S1 last, :. results of which have been nearly all tabulated-
 The aim of the major survey to be begun shortly Is to give the govern ment, producers dealers and consum- CTS exact information of the quanti A n. rf0 irV1 fo T1f Yn0 texials on hand It is only with trust worthy figures of existing food stocks as a basis, as was pointed out when Congress provided for the seurvey, that safe plans can be made for con- serving and distributing foods already on hand, and for producing the foods needed next season.
 The survey will be made by means Of schedules or Questionnaires con- faining questions and blanks for answers in regard to 86 items, cover ing more than a hundred different foods. These items are divided into 10 general groups: Grains and seeds grain food products, meat and meat products, fish, animal and vegetable fats dairy and related products, canned goods, fresh fruits and vege- tables, dried fruits, nuts and peanuts; and sugar. starches; etc. Answers are 10 show the quantities of each item on hand and an estimate of quantities, if any, in transit outward by freight or express, on Dec. 31, 1917, and the nuanfities that were on hand Dec.

STATE FOOD CONSERVATION
 COMMITTEE SAVES QUANTITY
 { FOOD THROUGH GIRLS ARMY

''In grateful recognition of patriotic service" says each of the several hun dred certificates sent from the head quarters of the Committee of Food Supply and Conservation of the State Council of Defense to the girls who have qualified for highest honors in the Junior Food Army by canning or drying at least 100 pounds of food dUirng the past season. These cerh- llcates, fourteen inches long by eleven inches wide, are embossed with the state seal and signed by Governor Holconb.
 The amount of food saved by these girls Is astonishingly large in tho az gregate. Two girls report S64 and St4 pounds respectively, while others have far exceeded the necessary hun dred pounds which places them on the hcnor roll. The first 800 girls to re- port preserved 40,S00 pounds of food, considerably over twenty tons
 The girls who were unable to can or dry the amount necessary to at tain . place on the honor roll, but who were able to save at least fifty pounds are receiving & button design ed for them by the Committee of Food Supply. Many oe these buttons have already been forwarded to the girls who did the necessary work and the remainder wlN go out as soon as re- ports from the girls are received at the headquarters of the Committee os Food Supply, No. 36 Pearl street, Hartford
 Another opportunity to win a place on the honor roll Is to be given the girls of the state. This Is through the homo economies clubs that are be- ing formed in connection with the farm bureaus Any girl may apply for . place in one of these clubs through the farm bureau or by writing direct to the Connecticut College at Storra Each girl that 3olns club will get twelve lessons in cookery and house keeping, and if she completes her couese she will be a member of the Junior Food Army and will receive her certificate of honor and a mem bership button from the Committee of Food Supply and Conservation
 Girls who have received certificates to date are; ,.-.

Seventy-First day of America in the War
KULTUR OF CRUELTY

Germany in cNtCnuatiOn of the atrOCi-
ties she has committed, the women and
children slain in needless commandments of
non-military places, the cnsavcmcnt and
starvation Of entire populations the dc
struCtlon of CathCdralS, works of art, hos
pital ships, firing on the Red Cross, etc.,
has made the plea OF accident or necessity.
Germany fighting for her lie, must do
things that otherwise she would not do
things, indeed, that she pledges in Hague
and other conventions not to do.
Unfortunately for German humanity
and veracity, however, there is ample proof
that Germany never intended to observe a
single one of the principles to winch SIC
pledged herself with such holy hypocrisy.
For instance the erman War Code in
paragraph ,, page 30. of the iutrouuction,
says, "A war conducted with energy. can
not be directed merely against the combat

which they occupy, but will in like manner

NEW COMMANDER NOT
LIFT BAN ON SEATTLE

CAMP LEWIS. Tacoma: That there
will be any change In the policy to-
ward Seattle as the result Of the de-
parture of Major General Greene Is
emphatically denied in official circles
at Camp Lewis today. 1.-The order
uuarantining Seattle will not be
changed and the ban will not be lift
ed" said General Greene Just before
his departure. Seattle will have to
make herself a suitable place for sol
diers to visit before there will be any
change"
When General Greene was told OF
reports that he had been removed
from command of the 91st division
and that General Irons was to take
his place permanently. he smiled and
said: There is nothing to it. My triT
was ordered and arranged before the
ban was put on Seattle"
An order was issued at Camp Lew
is today prohibiting the wearing Of
leather leggings and spiral woven put
tees by enlisted men.
1t is estimated that approximately
$4,000 has been invested in leather
puttees by enlisted men Of the medi
cal corps and other branches of the
service.
The difficulty of distinguishing ar
enlisted man with leather puttee:
from an officer is believed to be one
of the reasons for the order.
