DRASTIC FOOD BILL
HAS been AGREED ON
Prohibits Use Of Food Prod
ucts In Making Liquors
Is One Feature

Washington, June 13.-A drastic
food conservation bill prohibiting
the use Of sany non-perishable food
products in the manufacture of male,
spirituous or vinuOus liquors during the
war was agreed to by the senate agri-
culture committee today.
At the same time, it was voted by a
large majority to empower the presi-
dent cat such time as he may deem it
essential to conserve the food or feed
supplies of the country to restrict or
prohibit the use of perishable food or
food products in the manufacture or
intoxieants of any kind.
A further provision empowers the
president to commander any or all
spirits in bond when they are needed
to meet government requirements for
munitions manufacture and military
and hospital supplies.
The bill will be presented to congress
'"as a war emergency measure, apart
from the food production and food con
troll bills already drafted. If passed
by congress it will prevent further man
ufacture of distilled spirits, wine and
beers of all kinds for beverage pnrpos-
es.
Owing to the fact that it is bound to
preeipitate violent fight on the floor
of both houses it was decided to make
it separate i" food conservation bill,
thus eliminating danger of its block
ing passage of the food control bill
which the president wishes passed as
quickly as possible.

STRIKE TIES UP ALL
VANCOUVER LINES
Strike Came So Suddenly
Public Had No IntimatiOn
Of Its Pending

Vancouver, B. G. June 13.-A strike
of street railway conductors and motor
men this morning tied up all the linee
Of Vancouver, North Vancouver and
New Westminster, owned by the British
Columbia Electric Railway company.
Not a wheel turned and the company
made no effort to take cars out of the
barns.
The dispute between the company and
its men came head so quickly that the
public was unprepared for the turn Of
events this morning. Hundreds of jit-
neys did thriving business, however,
but there were thousands of early work
ers who had to walk in from their
homes in outlying districts.
Recently the union presented de-
mand for an increase of wages to meet
the high cost of living. The company
Offered a compromise which was not ac-
cepted. SO far there has been no dis
turbance.
1t is stated that the company will
make no effort whatever to operate a
service. Jitncy competition has caused
such a serious falling off in revenue
that the cars in the city have for
months been operated at loss and the
company takes thee position the. longer
the strike@the less will be the monetary
loss Light and power services are for
the present being maintained.

Fast Making Men
Out Of Recruits

The war department is making men
out of its recruits in the engineers,
corps with the following daily schedule
at Vancouver: Get up at o'clock;
breakfast, $50; onehalf hour exercise
at z; then drill three hours in the morn
ing and one hour in the afternoon from
until o'clock, then off until $3.50.
This information comes in a letter from
Lloyd l.. Case, who enlisted some time
ago in the engineers corps.
Telling of his first experience in army
life. he writes:
The first two weeks in the army is
the worst part you spend in it. The
recruit barracks are under men who
deal with nobody except recruits. So
you can imagine how they are But
if you tend to your own business, you
get along all right. -
This is the way he feels about army
life: cit is certainly fine over here
as [ have never felt better in my life.
We have fine eats and plenty of them
too, all you can eat."
