Most Important
Statement to the
Growers of State

Orlando, Fla, Dec. 15.-Hon. Brax-
ton Beachrnan. Federal Food Admin
istrator for Florida, has issued a
most important and pertinent state
ment for the benefit Of the fruit and
vegetable growers Of Florida rela-
tive to the crate situation, inasmuch
as he believes they should more close
lly watch conditions of supply for the
future.
"The Food Administration has been
asked to give some attention to the
matter Of crates, baskets, and boxes
used for shipping fruits and veteta-
bles in this State, and after inves-
tigation I have found that it would
be wise for all growers to make or
ders Immediately for crates that they
will need as their crops are ready
for shipment. They must do this i'm
sible delay and disappointment in
getting their crate orders filed.
Manufacturers Of crates have been
urged to take on orders of the Gov
eminent, and have an excellent OPP
portunity to place such orders now.
They cannot be blamed for keeping
their plants going by accepting their
first orders. Therefore the users Of
crates must place their orders in ad-
vance just as far as possible, going
to an approximation of their needs Of
future in doing this. The mills have
agreed to take care of the packers
and shippers if they are informed of
what the growers and shippers are
likely to need. They must have or
ders now if the growers are to have
crates when needed. In the past it
has been the custom to allow the
mill to bear the burden of supply. but
now as war conditions prevail the
growers must assume some part of
the load by Immediately Informing
manufacturers as to what will be re-
quired in the way of crates"

List OF New War
Inventions MADE
Strictly In U.S.A.'

Washington, D. c., Dec. 15.-
Ranked as an amateur when he en-
tered the war, Uncle Sam has al
ready developed his own style Of war
making, and adopted measures no
other belligerent has come to.
Although Uncle Sam has been
busy learning how the others do it,
including the Germans, he is no copy
cat.
He has sent whole focks of COM
missions abroad to study modern
warfare, and imported droves of Of
flcers and experts.
But at the same time Uncle has
struck out on many new paths, and
some of the things he has done are
revolutionary.

Insurance of Soldiers.
Already policies of over one billion
dollars have been issued to fighting
men to protect their dear one in case
of death. This solved the penseion
problem in advance. The oldy sys-
tenn in this country produced rotten
politics, fraud and plumber. Abroad,
every was was followed by the spec
tacile Of manned soldiers begging on
the streets or starving in attics on
half pay pensions.
Boldly striking at the root of the
evil, America has discarded all half
way measures adopted abroad and
absolutely prohibited the sale Of
liquor to officers and soldiers. pro-
hibited manufacture Of distilled
liquors and abolished sale of any sort
of liquors in wide zones around
camps.
The State Department is now ne
gotiating to extend the same protec-
ton to American troops in France.
Supressing Commercialized Vice.
Vice districts in all cities near
camps have been swept out. Other
belligrents are still trying "moral
suasion."
Uncle Sam is the first to have all
his soldiers examined and classified
as to their mental characteristics and
abilities. Every man is tested and
card-indexed. No square pegs will
be put into round holes.

BLOCKADE AROUND
GERMANY COMPLETE

London, Nov. 3O.-(Correspond-
ence)-Germany is now believed to
be effectually blockaded. According
to estimates made here, she now is
completely cut off from receiving i'm
ports from other than her allies ow-
ing to the fact that the prevailing
shortage of food stuffs in neutral
countries nearby have made it neces-
sary for them to withhold from her
any imports needed by their own peo-
pie.
Virtually nothing Is now permit
ted to go into Holland or the Scan
dinavian countries from England.
the United States or any other of
the Entente countries. These now
almost control the whole worlds ex-
ports of foodstuffs, feeding stuffs and
raw materials of every kind.
The stiffening up Of the blockade
is attributed here to the policy adopt
| ed by the United States in July OF
withholding it's exports from neutral
countries near Germany except on
terms under which they must cease
the exuort even of their own pro-
duce to Germany. This principal was
expressed in London in the phrase:
Eve will not send you wheat or fod-
OCI W CilobAS Sou W OAPoAS AAS1S anu
butter to Germany. Until you agree
to stop your exports to Germany we
will send you nothing"
Americas memorandum to Nor
way as published in that country
says substantially: "The United
States will regard all export to the
Central Powers as a subtraction from
the food supplies or other necessaries
which the country concerned should
expect to obtain for it's own indus
tries or support. 1t can hardly be
expected that the United States will
assist these countries with necessaries
if they continue to give help to the
Central Powers"
Imports of oils and fats into Hol-
land and Scandinavian countries
have decreased from an average of
$4,000 tons a month before the war
to a monthly average Of 22,5O0 tons
at present according to figures made
public here. Imports of cereal and
fodder, formerly $4,000 tons
month, have decreased to $4,000 a
month. Cotton imports have de-
clined one-haf since 1916 and inn
ports of hides and leather are now
mere fraction of what they formerly
were. Copper imports have declined
almost to one-fifth their former pro-
portions

In "The Honor System" virtue finds
itself in that immemorial conflict with
the forces of evil that the historic

in it's swift movement, movement that
the spoken stage never can hope to
approximate, in its accuracy of char
acter portrayal and in its intense
modernity that the "Honor Sys-
tenn" is supreme. In these respects
it may be said to mark a distinct
advance in screen art
The story is laid among the timely
scenes along the Mexican border.
The border foray is pictured in all
of its thrilling interests. The spec
tato sees tine horde of Villa sweep
ing down on helpless Columbus, the
terrified citizens, the hasty organ
zation for defense, the daring ride
for assistance. the dash of the mount
ed re-inforcements the repulse of
the invading bandits. Minor thrill
there are without number, each grip
ping in its intensity. but nothing
equal to this big THRILL for the
very good reason that never has it
been equaled on the screen.

as battle picture. It is as up-to-

Mr.. Fox does not believe either of

"The Honor System"

What is the ultimate province of
the cinema has been a matter of new
er ending discussion. Every time a
film producer offers anything un-
usual in the way of picture there
is temptation on the part OF the
critics to say, "This, at last is the
ultimate of the screen"
Unquesionably this will be said of
