Topeka's many Christmas presents to
Battery A. The barrel was started
last week by S. A. Abbott. The
Christmas barrel was placed in his
show window at sos Kansas avenue
and already contributions have started
to pour in.
The barrel will be filed before
Christmas, Abbott predicted this
morning. Then it will be sent to the
boys in camp. A second barrel will
be placed in the window and will
probably be filled before the holidays.
The boys in camp have written to
>. "A. Abbott many times since they
left Topeka. Never once has a let
ter asked for a thing, Abbott stated
But they have told of how short their
money was, some not having been
paid since they left the city. Tobacco
money must be scarce, so he knows
that the tobacco barrel will be ap-
preciated.

MORE SUGAR BETS

Makes to Kansas.

Manhattan, Kan, Nov. 5.-More
sugar beets, is the appeal of Herbert
Hoover, United States food admins
traitor. in a message just received by
DR.. H. J. Waters, food administra TOR
for Kansas
Mr.. Hoover points out that suffici-
ent sugar is one of the most pressing
needs in the war, and that while the
production of cane sugar in this hem
isphere can be increased to a limited
degree, the farmers in sugar beet
regions must be depended on to give
further help.
TT is at least the duty of every
beet grower" says Mr.. Hoover, ito
maintain in 1918 his normal acreage
of sugar beets. 1t is his privilege to
increase that acreage to the extent
that a well balanced production of
crops will permit, and in this manner
effectively demonstrate his patriot

Stockholm. Nov. 5.-Professor Won
Wendt, representing Finland, has pro-
posed to the American minister, Ira
Nelson Morris, a plan under which
Germany. in event that she occupied
Finland, could be prevented from
Selling flour and other provisions
which the Firms wish to obtain from
the United States. This plan is to
unload the provision at Narvik, Nor
way, and ship them by rail to kiruna
in Sweden at the Finnish border
where they would be placed in ware
houses to be sent on to Finland in
weekly rations.
Sweden has agreed to forego any
compensation for permitting transit
of the goods, imposing as the only
condition that the United States shall
provide coal and lubricadng oil for
use in sending the provisions across
the country. Mr.. Morris has agreed
to transmit the proposal to Washing

ENEMIES OF U. S.

Slavers, DanieIsOn Says.
Former Missionary Tells of
Mistreatment of Girls.

Mormonism is even lower than
white slavery practices according to a
statement made Sunday by Vernon j.
Danielson, former secretary of the
Mormon European Missions of 1919 TO
1916, and now representative or the
National Reform society, and an arch
enemy to MormOniSm.
Thousands of girls are shipped INTO
the United States each year, he declar-
ed, and taken into the inner circle
of Mormonism, which is based on pas
sion and desire. Altho denied en-
trance to United States ports the girls
from foreign countries are shipped
down the St. Lawrence river in Can
ada and then into the United States,
crossing the country to Utah.
White slavery is heaven compared
to the practices of the Mormon priests,
he asserted. Young girls are taken
into the temple and suffer treatment
that victims of white slave circles do
not suffer, he stated.
The Mormons are enemies to the
United States, he said in his lectures
delivered Sunday from Topeka pulpits.
Upon entering the secret temple of the
Mormons every believer signs a docu-
ment, the substance of which is highly
reasonable against the United States.
garment is worn which signifies his
oath to avenge the blood of the
prophets upon the nation.
Danielson, at one time a follower of
Mormonism, deserted his people in
1916, after returning from Europe,
and has now joined the forces of the
National Reform association. He has
been thru the Mormon Temple and
has been welcomed into the inners
shrineS of the people. Sunday he lee
tured before the First Christian and
the First Evangelical churches.
