(Rv Agsoclated Press.1 !

Washington, Nov. II. - Several
more industrial restrictions imposed
to meet the demands OF war are re-
scinded by a series Of orders issued
yesterday by the war industries
board. ~
BY agreement with the food admin
istration, the war industries board
removed restrictions placed on the
use Of tin plate in the manufacture
OF tin containers, thereby permitting
manufacture of many products such
as baking powder. cocoa, coffee, tea
and condensed milk, to substitute the
former types OF tin containers for
those. Of paper now being used.
Approval Of the war industries
board to the sale for road purposes
of asphalt, road binders, road oils,
tarbinders, and dressings was an
nounced by Fuel Administrator Gar

Restrictions on the manufacture of
oil stoves and of packing for hosiery,
underwear and knitted goods, were
removed. orders curtailing the pro-
duction of soft drinks and mineral
waters, also were rescinded by the
war industries board, but it was
pointed out that food administration
regulations limiting the amount OF
sugar allotted soft drink manufactur-
erg are in no way modified.
Deferred building projects amount~
ing to more than $20,000,000 1t was
estimated. were released by the re-
rnovaI OF restrictions on non-war

Governor Candidate
MUST HAVE ABOUT
$4,000 YES VOTES
Indications Are That Only
$4,000 or 46, 600 Voted
For Changes

The constitutional amendment pro-
posed by the Nonpartisan league So
cialists for the removal of the state
debt limit. has failed of adoption on
the fact OF returns available today.
The fact that between and 6 per
cent OF all the voters who participat-
ed in the general election last week
did not vote for either candidate for
governor, has Increased the total of
votes cast from approximately $1,000,
the vote for governor, to about sc, 600
to $4,000 and will require that the
debt limit amendment as well as the
other amendment, shall have between
$4,000 and 10000 Affirmative votes.
while the greatest possible total for
such amendments as revealed by re-
turns from county auditors of all
counties In the state is approximate
ly $4,000.
In an effort to definitely determine
whether or not the amendments have
passed, The Forum today made tele-
graphic inquiry of all county audi
tors in the state for statement of
the total vote cast, as compared with
the vote cast for governor.
Thirteen counties that had respon-
ded up to 2 o'clock showed a total
vote cast of, 30,S62, while the same
counties reported that only 2S.509
voters had marked their ballots for
candidate for governor.
The Nonpartisan league official or
gan in Fargo claims only about 200
over the majority of the vote cast
for governor, and in view cf the fact
that the actual total vote is approx
mateIy 5000 greater than the vote for
governor indicates, precludes to a
large extent the possibility that the
debt removal amendment has been
adopted.
Without the debt amendment, the
Socialists are powerless to proceed
with their policy of state socialism,
despite the fate of the other amend
ments.
The following shows the number
OF voters who marked their ballots
for governor in the counties indicat-
sd, and the aggregate number of all
ballots cast: IA

Foch and Jofre GtUen
Medals By Gen. Pershing

President Wilson at the villa where
Marshal Foch has his headquarters.
General Pershing, addressing the
generalissimo. said:
1.-THE congress Of the United States
has created this medal to be con-
ferred upon those who have render
ed distinguished service to our coun-
try. President Wilson has directed
me to present to you the first Of
these medals. It is a token Of the
gratitude OF the American people
for your achievements and for the
great services you have rendered TO
our army"
Foch's Happy Reply
In accepting the decoration Mar
shall Foch said:
'T will wear the medal with pleas
ure and pride. In days OF triumph,
as well as in dark and critical hours,
I will never forget the tragical day
last March when General Pershing
put at my disposal without restric-
ton all the resources OF the Ameri-
can army. The success won in the
hard fighting by the American army
is the consequence OF the excellent
conception. command and organiza-
ton of the American general staff
and the irreducible Will to win of the
American troops. The name 'Meuse'
may be inscribed proudly on the
American flag"

FEEDING HUNGRY

GREAT PROBLEM
BEFORE ALLIES
All Seas Must Be Opened
Before Aid Can Be

WILL NOT DEAL

German Troops in Russia
and Finland Must Also
Be Fed
WILL NOT DEAL

tBy Associated Press.l

Problems connected with the polio
ing and provisioning Of Russia and
the central powers hinge primarily
upon the immediate disarmament Of
the German fleet, the Russian war
ships held by the Germans and those
under control of the Ukranian gov
ernment in the Black sea. Warships
which are held by the Bolshevists in
the Finnish gulf must also be put
out Of commission.
Must Have Open Sea.
Without freedom Of movement in
the Black and Baltic seas the entente
have great difficulty in afEording
economic relief to central Europe as
well as Scandinavia. Consequently
the attitude of the German navy to-
ward the armistice terms Is watch
ed with eagerness by entente off,
cials who are anxious to prevent
staEyation among the belligerents
and to restore normal social and
economic conditions among the suf-
fering millions.
Quick Action Needed.
Speedy action is necessary for the
regions adjacent to the Baltic sea as
many Of its ports will be icebound
within two months and the congested
and disrupted condition of the rail-
ways makes relief by land routes un-
certain. The United States and the
entente powers have shown no dis
position TO deal with the Bolshevist
government. While. Russia remains
in the control OF the Soviet there
seems to tbe little hope OF feeding
Moscow, Petrograd and other large
cities there.
Will Not Deal With BoEshevik.
If the Russian Bolshevist move
=ment which has been started against
Finland. should be successful, Fin
land would also be placed tempor-
.arily beyond relief. Food conditions
are more favorable in the Ukraine
and in the Caucasus regions where
there is much grain stored, and
which the peasants would probably
sell II, offered manufactured goods or
money with reasonable buying pow
er. n She SkoIopadski government
survives the peace shock and Ger
man troops, which now occupy the
Ukraine, do not Join with the Rus
sian BoIshevists, Ukraine should re-
turn to normal conditions rapidly
after the Black Sea is opened. 1t is
supposed to have adequate stores OF
grain for its own use.
Must Feed German Troops Also.
Georgia and Armenia can be fed
with comparative ease when the al
lies are free to navigate the Black
sea. Railroads there have not been
seriously impaired, Germany is sup
posed to have about 250,000 troops in
the Ukraine and in the Russian Bal
tic provinces, as well as $4,000 in Fin
land. Under the arrnistice terms
these troops will remain until the
entente, requests their withdrawal.
Adequate provisioning Of these is Of
prime Importance to prevent their
and possible alliance with
f11a Russian BolsheVists.
