TO BUY FOOD PRODUCTS
ON THE COMMUNITY PLAN
Wilson Normal School Community
Center Association to Begin
With Purchase Of Milk.

Community buying Of food products
is to be tried out this winter by men,
bers of the Wilson Normal School Com
munity Center Association. and the ini-
tial move probably will be made in the
purchase Of milk. Announcement was
made last night at dinner given by
the association that milk distributors
had agreed to sell milk to members of
the association at II cents a quart If
enough subscribers could be found and
the territory arranged so that there
would be no duplication Of delivery
routes.
DR.. Henry E. Jackson OF the bureau
of education made the announcement
and during the evening 100 applications
for milk at the reduced rates were
made. Investigations have shown that
a large part of the cost of milk is due
to SO many distributors having to cover
the same ground. To eliminate this
it Is proposed to have all the families
on the same street or in the same block
get milk from single dealer. enabling

Reported to Have Rejected

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November Count George
Won Hertling has been rejected as i'm
perial chancellor by the reichstag ma
jority leaders, according to special dis
patches from Amsterdam. which con-
|strue this as rebuff to the emperor
and victory for parliamentarism. The
message, however. apparently was
written before the German wireless
statement was sent out yesterday an
nouncing that Won Hertling had been
offered the place and was consulting
with reichstag leaders.
An Amsterdam dispatch to the Daily
Express says that Count Won Hertnng
had conferences with the majority lead
ers, and that they opposed his ap-
pointment because he was against the
reichstag resolution for peace without
annexations and the democratic parlia-
mentary system.

| FOR FUEL CONSERVATION

While the food administration is urg-
ing the householder to use every con-
sistent means for saving foodstuffs that
may be sent to our armies and our allies,
the fuel administration has begun a
campaign to ask him to be as econom-
ical as possible with coal used for do
mestic heating, lighting and cooking
purposes.
No user of coal will be too small to
receive attention from the once OF LIT:
Harry A. Garfield, United States fuel
administrator. and from the great steel
plants. manufacturers and railroads,
down to the man who buys his coal by

May Be stop-Gap Chancellor.

COPENHAGEN. November THE
possibility is to be considered that
Count Won Hertling Is intended only
as a chancellor for an uncertain In
terval, and that hidden powers behind
the scenes have desired to use him
and DR.. Michaelis to keep the place
warm for the candidate whom Prof.
Rudolf Valentino. chief Of the emperor's s
civil cabinet. had intimated the emperor
was keeping In reserve for the peace ne
gotiations.
Count Won Hertling's age and the un-
natural and. therefore, probably tenn
porary division Of the offices of chan
cellor and prime minister. such as is
proposed. suggests the possibility that
the seventh chancellorship is intended
to last only until the threshold of the
peace negotiations has been reached.
| The fact that Count Won Hertling's
first conference after receiving the en-
peror's offer was with Count Won West
arp. the conservative leader, has at
| tracted comment. 1t is mentioned in
connection with his clerical-conserva-
| tive antecedents, his record in the
