Cost And Food Values
Of Fifty Foods

For the information of house
wives who wish accurate information
on relative costs in planning econom-
ical and at the same time nutritious
meals, the Food Administration has
issued a table showing the compare
tive cost and food values of fifty
foods.
Bread is taken as the standard of
comparison, and the cost per pound
and the relative cost per hundred
calories of the other materials is
shown. The prices given are aver
ages of those in twenty-five places
throughout the country on August
l. The table shows that twelve ar
ticles are tcheaper than bread on the
basis of calories obtained for the
money, two are of equal value, and
thirty-siX higher. Corn meal, not
withstanding its present high prices,
continues to give the most food value
for the money. Broiler chickens
stand at the foot of the list
1t would be impossible for a
family to keep in health if it were
fed exclusively on the foods in the
vice is that the housewife continue
TO prepare the usual meal OF varied
diet, and utilize this table as a guide
in making combinations that will
save money and at the same time be
nutritious. For instance, canned to-
MATES. compared with bread, are a
very expensive food. This should
not lead to total elimination of to-
matoes, but they should be employ
ed as Continental peoples use them,
as a fiavoring and garnishing for
such food, say, as macaroni, near
the other end of the list.
The table follows:

TWENTY YEARS OF HARD
LABOR FOR DESERTER
Camp Meade Soldier Sentenced to
Long Term of Years in Federal
Prison For Deserving Army-An-
other De>erter Gets Five Years.


other Deserter Gets Five Years.
Camp Meade, Dec 15.-Officials at
division headquarters let go this
morning the announcement which, 1T
was predicted a few days ago, woulo
carry CONSERVATION to the heart of
every deserter from this camp. This
announcement was to the effect that
d general court-martial at this can
torment had sentenced Lawrence w.
( Trefenthen, of Ridley, Pa, to 20
years at hard labor, and Peter Vol
sky, of Baltimore, to five years on
the charge of desertion.
NOlSky is a member of Company
+ Of the Three Hundred and Thir
teenth Regiment and is a resident of
East Baltimore. He left camp here
November 3 and was arrested No
vebmer 10 in Baltimore
Another Marylander Private ThoS.
j. Ford, of Company l, was sentenc-
ed 10 six months at hard labor at
this camp. He will have to surren-
der One-half of his pay.
Mechanic Clayton F. Ehst, of the
Three Hundred and Sixteenth Regi-
ment, was sentenced to four months
at the guard house here. In addi-
ton, he will have to forfeit one
fourth of his pay, all on the charge
of striking Corporal Roy z. Hershey
and of speaking in a disobedient and
sullen manner to Hershey while the
Corporal was IN the discharge of his
duty.
The original charge against Ford
was of desertion. He was found not
guilty on this charge, but guilty of
being absent without leave, a much
less serious offenSe. There were eX-
tenuating circun. stances in the case
of Ehst.
Trefenthen and Volsky are now
serving their sentences. AT the end
of their terms they will be dishon
orably discharged from the army and
will forfeit all pay due them.
Trefenthen, it is understood, was
a member of the Canadian army and
is alleged to have deserted the Brit
ish forces He was born in Maine,
hui registeredsfrQm the PennsYlva-e
+ MIA town There were aggrayating
| circumstances in both his and Vols
! ky'S case.
| In giving out the findings of the
court-martial the officials at division
l
| Headquarters made no comment and
referred in no way to the evidence
adduced This is in accordance with
military procedure. However, while
no comment was made, it is known
from high authority that the officials
here have asked cooperation from
| the Government, from the civil au-
! thoritieS and from the police OF
| MARYLAND, PENNSYLVANIA and the Dis
| trict of Columbia in their efforts to
run down every deserter. 1t is
known, too, that the finding in the
particular cases named marks but
| the beginning of a campaign of Sc
verify against every man who is ar
rested proved to be a deserter. There
are seven men locked up in the
| guardhouse now on desertion char
ges and it is limited that couple OF
them are BaltimoreanS.

GENERAL INCREASE
IN SALARY SCHEDULES
[. & p. Telephone Company Adopts
General Increase in Pay For En-

In announcing a general increase

ell, President of the Chesapeake &
Potomac Telephone Company, made
The following statement:
I'VE have. after carefully consld-
ering the matter, come to the con-
clusion that bonus payment to en-
ployes such as was made last year
will not meet the situation with re
spect to living conditions now con
fronting our employees as well as
others.
Therefore, plan involving gen
eral increase in pay has been adop-
ted. This general increase in wage
schedules will in no way affect in
creases awarded from time to time
as recognition of efficient services
rendered"
