SUBSTITUTES ARE PROPOSED
FOR USUAL FATS AND OILS
French scientist. Says Products OF
Peanut and CocOanut Can BE sue
C.eSesfuIIy Employed.


( BORDEAUX, Aug. 2.-At a recent
meeting of the Academy of Medicine
of France a weIl-known scientist, +
Maurel, OF Toulose in calling atten
tion to the fact that the supply of al
imentary fats and oils in France was
at present insufficient to meet the
needs, offered the suggestion that re
course be made to the supplies of
colonial food greases. such as arachis
or peanut oil, cocoanut grease and
oils of sesame and of cotton seed.
Peanut oil and cocoanut grease are
consumed in France in considerable
quantities, butt these products still
meet with a pronounced opposition
on the part of many people.
Maurel proposed hat the Academy
of Medicine should make known that
peanut oil and cocoanut grease. such
as the present industry. under state
supervision. can furnish, are not in.
furious to the health: that the caloric
value of peanut oil in the same guam
tity is really the same as that Of
olive oils and nut oils; that cocoanut
grease (cocose and vegetalinel. in
equal quantities. have also really the
same caloric value as the grease of
animal origin. such as pork grease
and butter.

distinctions, is just be-
coming known.
The Mitchell Appeal
The Mitchell offers at
least 20 per cent extra
value, because of our fac
tory economies. Millions
have been spent to reduce
factory cost on this car.
1t offers a lifetime car,
because of vast over
strength. Our tests and
standards are now based
on twice the usual mar
gins of safety. And two
Mitchellsl that we know
of have already run over
100000 miles each.
1t offers 81 features
like a power tire pump
which nearly all cars
omit.
1t offers shock absorb
ing springs which have
never yet been broken.
And which make the Nit
chell the most comfort
able car ever known.
1t offers exclusive body
styles, designed and built
by Mitchell experts. And
combining all the attrac-
tions found in 257 show
models.
1t offers beauty and
luxury in rare extreme.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1917-08-04
Increase 1907

There are 10000 Bate
built Mitchells running.
So 10000 owners, scatter
ed all the world over, are
voicing opinions on this
unusual car.
As a result, Mitchell
sales last year nearly
doubled any previous rec
ord. And this fiscal
years sales, for the first
six months, increased 100
per cent over last year.
But the ideal Mitchell
which we aimed at has but
lately been completed. 1t
has been a slow evolution
the final result of 700
improvements.
1t has taken three years
for instance, to double our
margins Of safety. This
year, for the first time,
we are able to announce
our 100 per cent over
strength.
1t has taken years to
develop-to build and
equip-this modern eff
cheney plant. This year,
for the first time, we oc-
cupy our model body

1t offers two sizes, so

ed.
The Mitchell Idea
The basic idea in the
modern Mitchell was to
eliminate factory waste.
To build the whole car in
a single plant at a mini
mized labor cost. The re-
suit has been to cut our
factory cost in two.
Then to spend part of
that saving to build an ex-
tra-grade car. On a car
of double endurance. On
a uniquely complete car.
On a car of unusual beau
ty.
You will see the final
result in the Mitchell to-
day. Examine it well,
and put it to the test.
Compare it point by point
including price-with
other like-class cars.
See the list of the great
engineers who selected
this car for their own use.
Do that for your own
sake before choosing a.
fine car. It may save you
many years of regret.

WASHINGTON. Nav 2F

WASHINGTON, May 20.
President Wilson has called upon tts
wisest men of the nation TO guide him IN
framing regulations for exemptions from
seective military service. At his personal
request a board composed of nationally
known lawyers. jursts and military adviS
ers are in session here today.
Upon this board President Wilson is re-
lying for aid in shaping a policy of equit-
able exemptions.
The recommendations OF these advisers
are to be the basis of the Presidents proc
lamation OF classes Of exemptions from Sc
lective service.
In the selective service bill President Will
son is given authority to define certain
classes OF Industrial workers that will be
granted exemption from actual field service.
Such classes will be in industries necessary
to the maintenance Of the military machine.
The board called by the President is for
the purpose Of aiding him in defining these
classes of workers for exemption In the
most equitable way.
Administration officials refused to make
known the personnel of the Presidents 40
yisorv board" They declared that some
of the biggest men in tn country answered
the Presidents call.
The question of eXcmptation by classes is
one Of the most perpleXing facing the Ad-
ministration in the enforcement of the Sc
lective service law.
Administration officials favor, as much as
possible. decentralization of power In en-
forcing the draft. Therefore, they are
placing much Of the machinery in the hands
of local authorities.
