housewife that every possible saving in laundry work Is a step toward win ming the war. "Men should wear soft collars" 1t is urged, 'and women might wear darker and more service able clothes in place of the delicate crepe de chine blouses which only re- tain their freshness for a day or two"
 The reasons for economy in laundry work are two-fold, according to the promoters of the exhibition. First, laundry work calls for valuable labor which might be more usefully em- ployed. Secon, washing involves the expenditure of money, fuel, time and soap - all of the highest importance in war time.

LIGHT AMERICAN AUTOS USED
 AT FRONT

The reported throwing out" of the the Fourth division, by the canvassing board at Juneau, created quite a stir at Fairbanks, and resulted in Henry T. Ray, who was Delegate Wickersham' s manager in the recent campaign, wir- ing a protest to Governor Strong, af- ter going over the election returns from Vault thoroughly in the office of the clerk of the court, where he found everything regular and so in formed the board.
 Governor Strong promptly replied as follows: Vote Vault precinct not other precinct, although all have not been tallied because of non-arrival of necessary papers connected herewith Don't believe everything you see in newspapers"
 The foregoing telegram shows that none of the precincts have been thrown out, although some of them have not been tallied on account of the fact that the necessary papers have not yet reached the canvassing board at Juneau.
 The last statement contained in the telegram would indicate that the gov ernor is little bit "peeved" over the reports regarding the work of the can wasting board which are being sent out from Juneau.

Exemption for
Congressman
Is Criticised
(By Review Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Legisla-
ton amending the war tax law so that
members of congress will be subject to
the new war excess profits tax on in
comes of $4,000 and more will be taken
up Saturday by the house ways and
means committee. Other revisions of
the war tax measure also may be dis
cussed, but definite consideration of
amendments is not planned until
spring.
The provision construed TO exempt
congressman from the per cent ex-
cess profits tax on individual incomes
exceeding $4,000 has caused much crrIi-
cism and members are anxious TO
amend the law so that there may be
no doubt as to its application TO them.
New Tax Legislation
Some preliminary study of new tax
legislation also is being made by both
house and senate committeeman in
charge Of the legislation.
After enactment of the provision as
20 taxation of congressmen's salaries
under the excess profits section, many
bills introduced for repeal OF the en-
tire section imposing special tax on
professional incomes will be pressed.

Chief Justice
Rebukes Man In
Supreme Court
(By Review Leased Wire.l

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-A scath-
ing rebuke administered by Chief JUS
tice White to one of the lawyers at
lacking the law eniivened argument
before the supreme court today in
cases testing the constitutionality of
the army draft act.
G. Gordon Jones, representing Albert
Jones. convicted in Georgia OF failing
to register, declared the law was I'M
constitutional because it required men
to take part in a war which had never
received the peoples approval. His
remarks were cut short.
i don't think your statement has
anything to do with the legal argu-
ments," said the chief justice sharply,
land should not have been said to this
court 1t is a very unpatriotic state
ment 10 make"
The attorney apologized and con-
tinued his argument.
Court Busy
Counsel in nine pending suits ad
dressed the court. They admitted the
right of the government to draft citi-
zens through the state militia, but not
as individuals and contended the law
prevents political and religious free-
dom and denies citizens equal protec-
ton.
Goldman Case Up
Harry Weinberger of New York, rep
resenting Emma Goldman and Alexan-
der Berkman, confined his attack prin-
cipally to the assertion that the law
deprives citizens of religious liberty
and added the government has no
right to grant exemptions on religious
grounds. Others argued that judicial
power was usurned by delegating to
the president authority 10 establish
local draft boards to determine what
men should be chosen for Service and
which exempted.

eminent will reply tomorrow.

20 pounds ruling was put into effect it
is also evident that many peaple have
been buying freqent lots of 20 pounds
and stocking up in anticipation of a
shortage.
People who are guilty OF laying in
excessive stocks of sugar are not ap-
preciative of the liberal ruling of the
food administration and their motives
can be attributed only to selfishness
and lack of patriotism.
The ruling of the food administra-
ton is extremely liberal insofar as the
western states are concerned and 1t
was pointed out that the restrictions
placed on purchases were merely TO
enable the refiners to supply all parts
of the country pending the arrival of
the Cuban sugar. The restrictions on
dealers which prevented their hoard
ing large stocks. has permitted the
supplying of our allies with sugar.
Willfnl disregard of the instructions
of the food administration by dealers
or consumers must eventually lead to
the adoption of drastic measures, such
as have been imposed upon the people
of European countries.
Some of the methods adopted by the
food administration in conserving food
products are to an extent experiment.

ton has requested the war trade
board to impose rigid restrictions gov
ernming the issuing of licenses for
coal export. All applications for
license vii be referred to the fuel ad-

Attention is called" said the ad-
ministration's statement, particular
ly to the fact that it is an injustice to
compel American coal producers to
sell coal to foreign buyers at the low
domestic prices while all other nations
not only permit but actually prescribe
minimum prices so that prescription
will not force cheap coal for export at
the expense of the home producers.
We. like the other countries, must con-

tBy Review Leased Wire)

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-Retention of
the 25-player limit and continuation
of the usual spring training trips was
decided upon at the closing session
of the American league meeting to-
night The club owners cleared up
these points in preparation for the
meeting with the National leaguers
here tomorrow.
Summarized, the important ques-
lions to be considered by the sixteen
club owners of the two leagues are:
The ACCESSIBILITY of reducing the
playing schedule to 140 games.
THE advisability of a 154-game
schedule running only five and half
months.

Z. Federal Fund Unpaid
President Johnson's announcement
that the $4,000 fund agreed upon to
reimburse hackers of Federal league
clubs, still remained unpaid caused a
surprise. He said that the American
league was ready to pay its share

issue would have to be settled by the
club owners of the two leagues to-
morrow. at was revealed that Edward
Gwinner, who lost heavily in backing
the Pittsburg club of the Federal
league, IS TO receive $4,000 of the
fund, and the balance is to be divided
between Harry Sinclair. who financed
the Newark club. and the Ward estate
of New York, which supported the
Brooklyn Federals.
Propose New Division
The suggestion advanced by the
National league that a new division
of the worlds series receipts be made
did not gain favor with the American
legaue club owners. The National
league proposes to limit the amount
the players of the contending clubs
receive and divide the remainder
among the players on the four lead
ing clubs in the two leagues. Presi-
dent johnson said he believed this
proposal probably would be voted
down by the American league. which
thought that the "spoils should go to
the victors."
After agreeing to retain the pres
ent player limit, the American
leaguers decided TO hold a bat and

league next June. Twenty-Five per
