Trying to get relief 1 had my stomach

I have taken two bottles and to my

SHORTAGE OF WORKMEN
DELAYS SHIP BUILDING
Drastic Action Declared Necessary
to Prevent Tie-Up of Program
Unions Told of Situa-
ton, But Fail to Act.

Washington, March 8.-Wooden
ships on the ways of the Puget sound
district almost ready to launch in
the race for tonnage to defeat the
submarines, are being held up by a
shortage of caulkers, which officials
Of the shipping board, said today was
due to the refusal of two unions to
cooperate
Ihe caulkers, union and the broth
erhood of carpenters have been in
formed of the situation, but without
result. Immediate action is declared
necessary to prevent a tie-up of the
Pacific coast program, and there were
intimations tonight that the shipping
board is prepared for some drastic
step if all other means fail.
William L. Hutchinson, president OF
the carpenters, was told of the need
for caulkers, and his attention called
to the unreserved assistance being
given by other shipbuilding unions to
the nation during the war. Hutche-
son, officials say replied that his Or
ganization had listed thousands of
trained caulkers, whom he would be
glad to mobilize for the nations work
if the shipping board granted his re-
quest for special representation for
the carpenters on the wage adjust
ment board.
The caulkers' union of Seattle,
which controls caulkers in the Puget
sound district, is said to have re-
fused apprentices permission to work
with them in order to learn the trade,
although the union has only 1856 men,
bers. and at least GOO are necessary
to put in the water the ships planned

Didn't Enforce Zone Order.

Washington, March John E.
Dougherty, assistant United States
attorney, and Deputy United States
Marshal Williams whose territory in-
cludes Rock Island, ILL.,, have been
suspended for thirty days for lack OF
sympathy with the policy OF the De.
partment OF Justice regarding the sale
OF liquor and enforcement of the law
in vice zones adjacent to army
camps.
Suspension of the two federal dis
trict officials was considered officially
an indication OF the determination OF
the Department of Justice to en-
force strictly anti-liquor and vice
regulations about army and navy
camps. Field officers of the depart
ment will be expected to take action
on their own initiative to remedy I'M
proper conditions, it was explained,
and not await prodding from the de-
partInent.

$3.50 RULINGS
STILL IN FORCE
SAYS FOOD CHIEF

A misunderstanding which threat
ems to be serious has arisen in con-
nection with recent order Of the
Food Administration, releasing house
wives Of Colorado who voluntarily
placed their homes on an absolutely
wheatless basis until harvest from
their pledge. This release from the
y-wheatless-pledge was in no
way intended to carry the impression
that the $3.50 rulings have been abol-
ished or that the wheat saving pro-
gram should be cast aside.
"In spite Of the great harvest that
has been granted to America, wheat
saving must go on" declared Thomas
B. Stearns. Federal Food Administra-
tor for Colorado. at would be the
height of short-sightedness for the
United States, with bitter war ahead
OF her and possible years OF short
crops. to eat up her wheat now in
stead OF creating vast national store
house from which she and her Allies
can draw as long as war lasts"

SPIRIT OF FRANCE
CLOVIS IN SACRIFICE
OF LITTLE CHILDREN.

! Much has been told of the spirit
Of France since the war began.
Many heroic things = victories,
sacrifices, courage beyond belief,
accomplishing resistance to the
slow agony Of hunger, cold and
personal loss, have developed from
this marvellous, idealistic devo-
ton to their own land.
But listen to this tale, ye who
! feel abused because your morning
is not as sweet as Of yore:
| Last winter sugar was scarce in
France, even as 1t is now, so scarce
that it was and is an almost I'M
known luxury to many.
Officials of the. Red Cross de-
cided to invite the school children
of Paris to a luncheon. So all the
small folks of the city were gath
cred together and feasted on the
great cups Of chocolate which is
their delight, with an ample sup
ply of bread.
Then because candy is no longer
made in France, because the land
, of French pastry knows pastry no
more, because there must be a sur
prise, q final treat, "bonne
bouche," each little guest, out of
the stores Of the Red Cross, was
given to eat lump Of sugar, one
of the half dominoes of loaf
sugar.
There were smiles of thanks,
grateful words of delighted ap-
probation from these children Of
Paris, starved for sweets through
so many weary months.
But them pause.
A few Of the scores Of children ate
their sugar joyously; others looked at
II longingly; but most of It was at
once whisked out Of sight. clasped
closely in little hands, slipped into
tiny pockets.
Then came surprised questionings
| from those giving and serving the
luncheon-and whispered, half-shy ex-
/ plantations in response.
Eyes, yes, every one loved sugar,
but" and then 1t was discovered that
each small person had the same
thought, born Of the wonderful spirit
Of France. quite without other prompt
Ing
II the sugar were taken home, saved
quite carefully, 1t might be put into a
tiny box and sent to a soldier, fight
ing at the front for France.
We in America now are asked to
eat not more than two pounds of sugar
month-which is far more than the
French are getting-in order that we
may send part Of our usual amount
to our own soldiers in France and that
we may share with these little French
patriots.

Sugar Is Scarce

You can help win the war by
making one lump of sugar do

Use sugar sparingly. Use

COLORADO RESORTS HELP
HOOVER

One hundred and fifty OF Colorado's
resort hotels are helping the Food Ad-

Menus from these establishments have
been sent to Washington by the Ho-
