Salvage Corps a Battle Front.

According to the systems now estab-
lished in modern warfare, it is stated
by a war correspondent, a salvage
corps is daily going over all the ground
near the battle front exposed to fire,
and is gathering all the debris dis
carded by the contending armies. None
Of the scrap is neglected, with steel
worth one shilling to one and one-half
shillings per pound, and copper and
other metals in proportion. All the
metals are taken to shops in the rear,
and there worked into the various mu-
nitions that modern army uses.
All the lead that Is fired Is prac-
tically lost, as bullet travelling OF q
velocity Of 1000 feet or more per sec
ond buries itself SO deep into any OBJ
ject 1t hits as to be lost entirely. 9th
er 1netals, however, sueh as tangled
steel from wrecked motor cars, large
pieces Of shells. bits copper, pieces
Of aluminium. etc, are CAREFULLY collect
cd and later turneds into usable condi-
ton. Y.

FOOD PROFITEERS AND
VIOLATORS PAY PENALTY

Upon a report by government in
spectors, f. B. Ives company of Osh-
kosh were brought before the Enforce
ment Division of the U. S. Food Ad-
ministration for Wisconsin on a
charge of profteering.
At the hearing it was emphasized
that the firm have shown a careless
attitude toward food regulations, have
not kept themselves informed of the
rules and have made oYercharges on
various articles.
BY the order of Herbert Hoover on
December II, their license is to be sus-
pended for 3 weeks from December 10
to January upon all licensed articles.
Permission is given to them, however,
to fill outstanding contracts mp to and
including December 16 and to dispose
Of any and all pelishabie goods which
they have on hand.
The Betsy Ross company of Chica-
go, H., were brought before the En-
forcement Division of the U. S. Food
Administration for Wisconsin for ship
ping sugar out of their own state to
their branch store at Sheboygan. AS
there was no sugar obtained by the
company from the Wisconsin sugar
division and as the company in Chi
cago was before the Illinois Food Ad-
ministration for violation of a food
regulation, the case was turned over
to the Illinois Enforcement Division
for them to handle both infractions.

"If" says Senator Borah, "the peo-
pie really knew the method and the
manner in which we expend money
and the waste of which we are guilty
they would mob us.
Mr. Borah was speaking on the call
Of Senator Martin, Of Virginia, to the
Administration MOI only to cut down
future estimates, but as far as possible
to turn back into the Treasury the IN.
expended balance Of money appropriat.
ed by Congress during the war.
But would the people mob anybody
for the way those billions have been
spent? Haven't they a pretty fair
idea OF the method and manner Of
the expenditures or course, the war
has justified heavy expenditures, but
aside from that, haven't the people
become rather callOus to terms Of big
money? DO they not think in billions
now where they formerly thought in
millions2 Do they really think Mt all
when they troll billions of their ton.
gues2 Have not the excessively high
prices which they have been compelled
TO pay for everything they buy accus.
toned them TO the new scale Of expen-
ditures, both private aud public? Have
they not become more concerned in
getting the money with which TO pay
the high prices and ir getting some Of
those prices themselves than they are

must be abnormal for some months
yet, but they should be reduced as soon
and as rapidly rs possible And the
people who by reason OF the high
prices have developed new spirit OF
economy in their own affairs cannot
develop too early and too strongly u
demand for economy In public affairs. %

DEALERS MAY GO BELOW
PRICES ON PRICE LISTS

Under the present market condi-
tons, prices on some commodities are
on the decline, and in order that mer-
chants may deal with competition,
permission has been granted them
from Washington to sell their staples
below the low prices published in the
Fair Price Lists.
Prices may go as low as the mer-
chants may wish, but if they go above
the high prices on the Fair Price
Lists, penalization will follow. Revo-
cation of license is the popular punish
ment for prohteering, and the En-
forcement Division Of the Food Ad-
ministration expects to apply 1t to all
firms charging excessive prices during
the coming year.
The wholesale prices of all of the
staples have been kept from soaring
by the efforts of the Food Administra-
ton during the past year. and seven Of
them, including potatoes, flour and
sugar have actually declined in price.

their midst strong and efficient heo
Cross chapters. The divisional organi-
cations with honorary and permanent
STATS. will be MISUNDERSTANDING
ready for service; and national head
quarters will have large and efficient
personnel to direct the activities of the
organization as a whole.
"Study Is being given by the ma
tional organization not alone to prob
lens OF international relief. but to
plans in this country for enlarged
home service the promotion of public
health education, development of nurs-
ing, the care and prevention of acct
dents, and other correlated lines,
which may contribute to the health
and happiness Of men, women and chill
dren. Such plans when developed
will. 1t is believed, provide both for
world relief and for home community
service, and thus constitute a channel
for the continued and useful express
sion by Red Cross workers and mem
bers of those qualities Of sympathy
and love which our whole people have
poured out so unstintedly during the
war.
''For the completion Of It's war work
and for the institution Of It's peace
program, the Red Cross is fortunately
in a healthy financial condition. Album
dant occasion for the use of large
funds Of money and great quantities of
garments and other supplies will con-
tlnue to arise, but it is believed that
there will be no further need for in
tenslve campaigns for funds. The work
of supplementing governmental activ-
tiles, which the Red Cross will be
called upon to do in all parts of the
world, will be upon a great scale, but
1t will call for human service rather
than for large expenditures.
"What the American Red Cross
needs now Is not so much contribu-
tons of money, as the continued devo-
ton and loyalty of its members. This
is peculiarly true at this moment Of
transition from war to peace. Annual
membership involves the payment OF
only one dollar. The moneys thus re-
ceived not only defray all the admins
tratIve expenses of the organization,
but leave a substantial balance, which,
together with all funds subscribed di-
rectly for relief, are devoted solely
to that purpose. The roll call of the
nation is thus to be called at Christ
mas time, that through enrolment in
their Red Cross the American people
may send a message to our soldiers
still overseas and TO the peoples of the
world that we are not merely content
with seeing our arms united with our
allies in victory, but that our abiding
purpose is that the love, the sympathy
and the intelligence of all America
shall be rededcated to the permanent
service of mankind"

CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.
Government Justified In Pork Policy
Which Nov Provides Chief Sup
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.

In line with the general plan OF con-
servation formulated by the U. S. Food
Administration Immediately following
the entrance of the United States into
the war the contribution made by the
meat producers of this country to the
war program is of particular signiti-
canoe, as it demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Adj
ministration by the meat producers OF
the country.
According to reports Of the U. :.
Department of Agriculture, there was
an Increase in cattle of 10,23S,000 head
and IL, 441 900 hogs, these figures com
piled to January l last. In the same
period there was decrease OF $4,000
head of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an increase follow
ing the latest reports.
Since January l unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase In hogs OF
not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent. compared
with one year ago, with an Increase In
average weight.
Following the request of the Food
Administration for increase In hog
production for the fall Of 1918 and the
spring of 1910 the increase may yield
not less than 1,600000,00O pounds
more Of pork products than We're
available last year. Without this In
crease the shipping program arranged
| by Mr.. Hoover regarding animal food
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 30,
1917, amounted to 903, 172,0OO pounds,
while for the same months of 1913 the
production was 1877 $4,000 pounds,
an increase of over 374, 100000 pounds
for the quarter
During the same period In 1917 In
spected slaughter records OF dressed
beef showed 1,263,000,000 pounds ms
against 1,454000,000 pounds for the
three month period ending September
/, this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products,
TO meet the added demands of the mil
lions liberated from German oppres-
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward 10 the rehabilitation 81
the European meat herds. The policy
which guided our meat program in the
past year has been fully Justified, for
only the heavy pork production which
1t has brought about will enable us
even partly to satisfy the Increased
demands on us for the coming year
