More Food Conservation

Little Rock. Nov. 9 Every man. woman and child in Arkan Sas will be asked by the United States Food Administration to participate in the drive for re newed food conservation, which begins Monday, December 1 and lasts until the following Satur day, inclusive. That week will be known. as World Relief Week, during which time a most inten Sive effort will be made all over the United States to impress up on the people of the nation the necessity for greater food saving than has ever been asked of them.
 The chief reason for summon ing the county food administra- tors to Little Rock, where a spe- cial session held Wednesday, Noyem Der P, was to acouaint them with this program and give them details that will assist in carrying out in their county this important work. Franklin ". Fort. of Herbert Hoover's staff, Washington, addressed that meeting.
 Sunday December 1. from ey- cry pulpit in the state will be read the special message Mir. Hoover has addressed to the Christian life of the nation. The same message, together with other features, will be taken up by every woman's club in Arkan sas. Their special day is Wednes- day. December 1. The following Friday another special program to be observed in the schools of the state will receive recognition while every fraternal society will also receive a copy of the Hoover message, which will be read at their meetings during the week.

Why You Should Flow Under Cotton
 Stalks

Cotton stalks should be plowed under so that they will rot by spring, thus reducing chances of infestation by cotton anthraxnose or cotton boil rot. The spores of this disease, which costs Arkan saS thousands of dollars every year, live over the winter on old bolls, burS and stalks left in the field. Get rid of them.

GERMANS
ARE TO BE REGISTERED

Washington.-The week Of Febru-
ary 4 was set aside by the department
of justice for registration of the half
million unnaturalized Germans in con-
tinental United States by police and
postmasters in pursuance of President
Wilson's alien enemy proclamation d.
recting this action as means Of min
imizing the danger from enemy sym
pathizers in the United States.
Earlier plans for admintering the
Registration will involve the gath
ering of detailed information con-
cerning the business, relatives and
habits of every German, together with
his photograph and finger prints. AZ
ter registering he must carry a eef-
ttfcate card and may not change his
place Of residence without approval Of
the police or postmaster. Violation
Of the regulations will be punishable
by internment for the war.
The orders do not apply to German
women, nor to any persons under "a
years Of age, because these are not
caassed as alien enemies by law. Sub
fects Of Austria-Hungary are not re-
quired to register.

fore impossible.

WaShiagtou.-ahe railroads Of the
United States passed into government
possession at noon Friday as Secre-
tary McAdoo, designated by President
Wilson as director general of rail
roads, was delegating to the railroads
war board the task of operating them
for the present.
The war board, comprising five Of
the country's foremost railroad exec'i-
tives who have been in supreme
charge Of the roads for the last nine
months. were called into conference At
II o'clock to discuss plans for weld
ing all transportation lines into a sin
gle government-operated system. They
left the treasury department two
hours later under instructions to cor
tinue their functions and submit i'm
mediately a plan Of operation to the
director general.
Mr. McAdoo issued his first formal
order designed to speed up freight
movements, telegraphing all railroad
presidents and directors instructions
to move traffic by the most convenient
and direct routes. At the same time
he ordered them to continue the oper-
alton of their lines in conformity with
the Presidents proclamation putting
them under government control.
There was no indication whether
Mr.. McAdoo intended eventually to
displace the war board with an organ
ization of his own or to continue its
organization for the duration Of the
war. 1t was made clear, however. that
it will continue the function until the
director general decides that better
system can be devised.
The order that freight move by the
most expeditions route opens the way
for a pooling of traffic impossible
heretofore by reason of statutes de-
signed to prevent the practice by car
riers operated under private direction.
It takes from the shipper the right tc
route his freight as he wishes, and
leaves to the railroad traffic manager
the task of sending it most directly
and where there is least congestion.

reaffirmed, without equiVocation,
that it is the determination OF labor
to continue the war.
Fortified by the known attitude Of
President Wilson as to the rsquire-
