Governor Urges Purchase
of Liberty Bonds

Governor Townsend yesterday
:ssued the following proclamation
for the observance of Liberty Loan
Day:
In conformity with the Procla-
nation Of the President Of the
United States, designating October
oath as Liberty Loan Day, I call
the special attention Of our cit
izens to this duty,
So consistently loyal, so ener-
getically true, so determined to do
our full bit, it has seemed super
fuous to call the attention of Sons
of Delaware to a National duty.
At every call, Delaware has nobly
responded. Not perhaps with the
glare of enthusiasm that attracts
attenetiOn, but with quiet efficient
organization, the results have been
practical and have more than met
the demands placed upon us. This
trait of character inherited from
our fathers, is one of just pride,
of which a boast can we'll be ex-
cused. But proud as we justly are
Of our history, and the immediate
yesterdays-today has it's duty,
too. We can i'll afford to rejoice
in the achievements of yesterday,
at the sacrifice of the call today.
The honor of America, the in
tegrity of democracy the very life
of liberty itself is at stake. The
ideals of humanity, of which the
word America is most expressive,
stand at bay.
Our fathers have given their
sons, our mothers their hearts
prayers. This great hard sacrifice
has been made. We are asked now,
only, to supply funds to go toward
their efficiency in making the
worlds fight for right.
Compared to the work of our
sons, compared to the sacrifices al
ready made it is such little thing,
yet of vital practical import.
Just, lest we forget, be it re
membered that Wednesday, Oc-
tober oath, is Liberty Loan Day.
With this thought in your mind,
it is with confidence that I say the
Delaware if today will hold true
to the thoughts and deeds of yes
terday.
We dare not do less than our
share-history prophesies we do
more"

Government Reas-
sures HouseUiUes
Denounces Circulators of Re.
ported Seizure Of Fruit

German agents are credited by
the government with the circula-
tion Of statements that the food
administration intends to take can
ned and preserved vegetables and
fruits away from individual house
holders who have acquired a sup
ply of such articles.
incidentally, it is learned that
the circulation of this utterly false
and misleading statement has en-
abled swindlers to take quantities
Of food from h0useholders upon
the pretense that they are govern
ment agents. The food administra-
tion wants it known generally that
no interference with food held by
individuals for family consump-
tion has ever been contemplated
and that there are no agents Of the
administration or of any other
branch of the government who
have any right to investigate the
domestic food supplies Of individ-
uals. "You cannot make this
statement too strong" said an Of
ficer Of the food administration to-
day.
If persons are being sWindled by
pretended agents they should take
prompt steps to bring the offend
eTs to justice.
The food administration has
been encouraging all housewives
to can and preserve as much food
material as possible, both for home
consumption and for sale, and
those who have responded to these
urgings are entitled to all they
have acquired, and will be protect
ed by the government.
The food administration has re-
ceived information from nearly
every State that householders have
been informed that all surplus
food supplies and especially can.
ned and preserved vegetables and
fruits would be taken from then
by the government.
Only a deliberate effort to cause
alarm and discomfort could ac
count for the circulation Of this
falsehood, and therefore its orgir
is attributed to German propog
andists.

COAL ADMINISTRATORS
NAMES ASSISTANTS
To Fix Prices Today

With the hope of relieving,
where it is possible to do so, those
communities which may at any
time be in danger of a coal famine,
and in order that all sections of
the State may receive equitable
treatment, a State Advisory Coal
Committee was appointed today by
State Coal Administrator Charles
H. Ten Weeges. The personnel Of
the advisory committee is as fol-
lows:
p. L. Grove of Wilmington, sup
erintendent of the Delaware rail
road; Robert d. Kemp, chairman
of the Wilmington coal committee :;
John r. Lambson of New Castle,
chairman of the rural New Castle
committee; Harvey P. Hall Of
Smyrna, chairman of the Kent
county committee; c. Sudler
Richards of Georgetown, chairman
of the Sussex county committee.
Mr.. Richards appointment as Sus-
sex chairman was also made today
by Mr.. Ten Weeges. This COM
pletes the organization for the
State of the coal administration
forces, except that Messrs. Hall
and Richards are yet to name their
co-workers on the Kent and Sus-
sex committees. The State advis-
ory committee is to devise ways
and means for securing transpor-
tation for coal to all sections of
the State, so that each section will
have an equal chance. The ones
that are the worse off will receive
attention first.
Much of the time of Mr.. Ten
Weeges is being taken up by deal
ers who come to him for advice,
many of them fearing that they
will run in conflict with the new
rules laid down, and consequently
he finds it rather difficult to &C
complish as much as he otherwise
would be enabled to do.
Mr.. Ten Weeges hoped to be able
to have a meeting of the local
committee this afternoon, follow.
ing which it is his intention to an.
nounce the high and low prices
which retail coal dealers may
charge in Delaware.

also Mrs. Georgia Bullock was ap-

of Los Angeles, and women judges
have been appointed to city, police,
probate and other courts in the equal
suffrage states. Even in the male
suffrage states there have been some,
among them Frances Hopkins, pro-

Mrs. Martha P. Falconer, superinten-
