Food Administrators Promise.

Promising to "go after any dealer
who attempts to make unfair profits on
necessities which are scarce. Clarence
r Wilson, food administrator for the
District, appealed to the people of the
southeast to support the administration
in conserving food
wheat, meat, fats and sugar are the
things they need in Europe now" said
Mr. Wilson. of course, we can't save
much sugar now. except in candy and
cake, but we can save on the other
necessities. Theoretically and statis-
tically, We haven't enough surplus
wheat available to send over there
except what you and I save. and 1t is
along this line that 1 appeal to you to
help win the war"
Mr.. Wilson pointed out that the
President did not follow the German
system and appoint a food dictator
who would say what the people could
and could not eat. but took the broader
democratic plan of relying upon the
American people to save food volun-
tarily. under the leadership of a food

their employees the opportunity which
the great bulk of them desire, to con-
tinue at their work. Every possible
measure of protection will be given to
the employees by the operators and by
governmental authorities, and there
should be no anxiety or fear on their
part of injury while going to or COM

The Butte mines will continue to be

not permit comparatively small band
of cowardly agitators and non workers
to. deprive them of their livelihood and
drive them from their homes but such

No Demands Made.

mo grievance of the workers in the
Butte mines has been brought to the
attention of the operators, and we be-
leive that none exists. The wages
paid in Butte are on the average the
highest paid anywhere in the world.
In a few OF the southern districts,
where labor is classified. small pro-
portion of those employed receive
higher wages than the Butte under
ground workers, but the average Is
much lower. The working conditions
in Butte are better than the average
and compare favorably with those Of
any other camp. The same may be
said of living conditions, which are
very much superior to those Of many
of the camps for which extravagant
wage claims are made
This disturbing element, by threats
to destroy the property. fire the mines
and do violence to employees who wish
to work, has caused a number of men
to remain home. This detection SO
far has not been serious and cannot
be, as the mine operators and the peo
pie Of Butte generally are determined
not to permit repetition of our for
mer experience.

BILL TO PROHIBIT USE OF
F00DSTUFF FOR SPIRITS
New Measure is Step Toward
Prohibition During
the War.

Washington. June ia new bill to
prohibit manufacture during the war
of foodstuffs into distilled spirits and
malt liquors was ordered reported to-
day by the senate agricultural COM
mittee.
Another provision of the bill would
empower the president to requisition
existing supplies of distilled spirits If
necessary to conserve food supplies or
to secure alcohol for war purposes.
The new bill Is designed both as a
food conservative measure and a step
toward prohibition during the war. 1t
is not designed as a substitute for
either the food production or control
bills now pending, but as a distinct
measure combining many prohibition
resolutions and bills.
The bill would, by congressional
act. prohibit manufacture of non-per-
ishable foodstuffs into intoxicating
beverages and authorize the president
to prevent such use of them.
