COMBINATION SALES UNDER BAN
Forcing People to Buy Other Goods
to obtain Sugar Must Stop.

Washington-Retail dealers have
been ordered by the food administra-
ton to stop the widely prevalent prac-
tice of making combination sales"
requiring customers to make other pur-
chases in order to obtain a certain
commodity. One exception is made
on all sales of sugar the dealer may
require to buy twice the weight Of
corn meal.
Reports have come from many cities
on Combination sales" particularly
since the shortage of sugar in the east
began. In order to get a couple of
pounds of sugar, consumers have had
to spend a certain amount in other
goods.
This practice, the administration
holds, is likely to lead to wasteful
buying.
The exception in regard to corn
meal is made as a wheat conservation
measure, to encourage greater use of
corn products, but dealers are not re.
CURED to make the exception unless
they so desire.

HIGHER COAL PRICE PROSPECT
Operators Agree to Wage Increase
Provided Price Is Raised.

Washlngton.-Wage increases rang
ing from Is to A per cent for Penn
sylvania anthracite miners have been
agreed to by the operators here on
that advances are absorbed
in higher coal prices.
AS soon as they had signed their
tentative new contract the miners
ed operators called on H. A. Garfield
and asked that anthracite prices be
raised to meet the increase. DR.. Gar
field took the request under advise
ment and announced that he would
make a careful investigation before
rendering a decision.
1t is estimated that the wage in
creases would add about As cents a
ton to anthracite prices, and give the
miners about s4O,OOO,OOO additional
pay annually.

CHEAPER SUGAR IS PROMISED
Prescott Says Retail Price Should Not
Be over sR Cents.

Lansing-Sugar should retail in
Michigan at not more than eight and
one-half cents per pound, according to
George A. Prescott, state food admin
istrator
The head of one of Michigan's larg-
est sugar plants is authority for the
same statement.
THE wholesaler pays $7.35 per hun
dred pounds and is allowed 10 per cent
commission under the government or
der, said this official The retailer
therefore can we'll afford to sell sugar
at eight and one-half cents and reap
a profit that will be sufficient"
Recently Mr.. Prescott sent an in
vestigator to Lansing grocers to in
quire the price of sugar. The price
varied from eight and one-half to
twelve cents per pound, showing plain
ly that some retailers were looking for
profit far in excess of reason.
Retailers will be prevented from
boosting prices through the announce
ment of prices of foodstuffs that con-
sumner should pay. Wholesalers will
be ordered to cease sales to retailers
who do not adhere to such prices

the Italians, retreating from the

Freely Impaired to Rockies
Health at Camp Good.

Camp Custer, Battle Creek-Michi-
gan's first two increments OF selected
men, who have been in camp for per-
iods of time varying from two and
one-half months to the same number Of
weeks, are playing an important part
in giving the third contingent, its first
lessons in the inside workings Of mil
itary life.
Officially all instructions come from
the officers but the latter are freely
admitting the value OF the knowledge
gained by the older men and say they
will depend largely on this experience
as an aid to them in getting the new
arrivals started correctly.
The very mingling of the two classes
will have a salutary effect on the
rockies, and the seasoned men, proud
of their knowledge, will be anxious
to aid as much as possible in steering
their brothers along the right path.
And, II any of the new arrivals OBJ
ject to military regulations, the
lessons they will be given in tie
barracks removed from the eye of COM
missioned officers, will perhaps be
more efficacious than would any pun
ishment which might be melted out by
the officers.
A report received by the division
surgeon shows that health conditions
in Camp Custer are superior to those
in the national guard and national
army environments of the south and
that the percentage of deaths in this
camp is the lowest in the country.

VERY REG!STRANT
ISSUBJECT TOCALL
IF NOT FIT FOR DUTY AT FRONT
CAN BE PUT TO WORK
BEHIND LINES.
DEPENDENTS ARE MORE SECURE
Man With Family Must Get Consent
of Dependents Before He Will
Be Taken Into Army.

ashington-Drastic new regula-
tions for the draft, making practically
every one of the more than 100000
registrants subject to war duty, If not
at front, then behind the lines, have
been approved by the president.
The regulations mobilize the war
strength of the country to a point
where only word is necessary to
take a man from his desk or pillow or
work bench and put him in a trench
or armed motor car or munitions fac
tory or shipbuilding plant.
Men of draft age with dependent
relatives are placed in a more secure
position.
Added protection for dependents is
secured by the requirement in cases
where the registrant seeks to waive
his deferred classification status that
waivers also must be obtained from
those dependent on him before he can
be taken into the military service. Lo-
cal boards are constituted judges of
all such cases.
Men physically untitled for front line
duty in the army and yet able to do
some part of the work of a soldier
may be called for limited military SER
vice behind the lines.
Where registrants are away from
home districts or in other circum.
stances, application to the local board
for a QUESTIONABLE is all that is re-
quired.
Local boards are granted virtually
judicial powers to summon witnesses
and obtaining information.
Authority is granted to form special
classes of men highly skilled in partic-
ular trades or professions and sum-
mon them under this special heading,
regardless of their grouping in the gen.
eral classification plan except in de-
tendency cases.
Men already certified by local
boards will be sent forward as needed
until such time as the new class / in
each district is sufficiently organized
to care for drafts from the district.
All pending appeals will then be wiped
off the slate and the new system will
apply in full.
