JEWS TO OBSERVE
 ANNIVERSARY OF. HISTORIC EXODUS.
Release From Bondage In Egypt and Release of Pal
 estine to Be Celebrated

Jews in every part of the world are preparing to observe a Sabbath of deep historical significance, which be- gins at sunset this evening. It is known on the Jewish calendar as the Sabbath of the Exodus, and commem- crates the escape from Egypt. In SynagogueS throughout the United States at tomorroW's service the rab- bis will devote their sermons to the new turning point in Jewish history, the impending re-estabhshment of the Jewish state in Palestine. The offer ing of the day will be set aside for the Palestine Restoration Fund, the first million dollars of which is now being raised in the United States.
 Jacob de Haas, Secretary of the Zi- onist organization, has issued from the national headquarters in New
 York an appeal to Jews in the United States to make their gifts generously proportionate to the historic signifi- canoe of the day. He says:
 'HThis Sabbath, the Sabbath of the Exodus, as it is known in our calen- l dar year, commemorates the escape of our people from the bondage o1 Egyptian imperialism some $500 years ago. This year congregations in syna-
 gogues all over the world will hear from the Torah the familiar story o1
 the exodus, the great historic move ment of the Jewish people for self l determination, with a new emotion
 for at last after two thousand years ! the ancient homeland is to be restored ! to us.
 Surely every Jew will realize the i tremendous significance of this occa-
 sion and will contribute generously tc i the fund for the re-establishment o1
 the Jewish state in Palestine, whict
 means so much for the future of oul
 people and the preservation of its re- ! ligious and cultural ideals.'

ALL SALT WATER FISHERMEN MUST
 OBTAIN LICENSES

Connecticut salt water fishermen and distributors of sea food, who are not already licensed by the United States Food Administration, will be required to operate under licenses af- ter February 15. Under the authority given him in the Food Act of August 10, President Wilson has issued a pro- clamation which gives the Food Ad- ministration almost complete control of the distribution of salt water fish, including menhaden, crustaceans and shellfish. Wholesale fish dealers are already operating under license. 1 The proclamation covers all fisher
 man engaged at any period of the year, whether fishing independently ; or on shares. It covers, as well, all people engaged in the commercial dis tribution, including catching and sell
 ing of any or all varieties of salt wa ter fish. The term salt water fish is
 defined to embrace all forms of sea-
 food taken from salt water. This
 places oysters, crabs, Holsters, clans,
 all shellfish and crustaceans under
 the control of the Food Administra-
 tion.
 Any person, firm, corporation or as
 sociation engaged in the catching or
 distribution of any forms of seafood
 who engages in business after Febru-
 ary IS, without securing a license will
 be liable to a fine of not more than $5,000, or Imprisonment for not more
 than one year, or both.
 | All persons subject to license must
 apply to the United States Food Ad- rici@ r11 ington, D. C., specifying the nature
 of the business to be licensed.
 The licensing of the fishermen and
 the control thereby given will enable
 the Food Administration to foster and
 aid the salt water fisheries and great ly increase the catches and the oppor-
 tunities of the fishermen to broaden their operations. All this will be
 brought about by regulations soon tc
 be enacted and embracing the Atlantic and Gulf coasts which will largely su- pt\5ede the local laws in the various fishing districts; these laws are al present discouraging the fishermen keeping them from using the mos productive kinds of gear and curtail- ing the catches. Also in some of the districts closed seasons on certain va rieties are in greatest abundance 1T the shore waters and in many of thu districts restrictive laws against non residents and alien fishermen art rendering it impossible for vessels anC equipment from one state to mak' 3 catches of fish in the shore waters O adjacent states.
 In the enactment of the regulation 9 ha void hXT ho s Administration to any present restric tions which are vitally necessary iron , the standpoint of conservation.

At the same time, an abun. dance of sugar was and still is locked up in far-away Java. as unavailable as unmined gold-because ships cannot be spared to transport it.
 Every 5,OOO-ton ship which can be saved by giving England sugar from Cuba means the release of a ship which can make three trips and take a total of 5000 soI- diers from the United States to France.
 If we can save the Allies from taking any Java sugar in 1918, we will release for transport purposes enough ships to carry over to the Western front and supply about 15O,OOO to 100000 soldiers.
 At the same time, we will also be giving the Allies the necessary sugar. Therefore. it is to the interest of the common cause to save ships and send soldiers.
 The American Sugar Re- filming Company has put forth every possible effort to keep up the supply of sugar for the United States, even in limited quantities, and to stabilize the price to the consumer.
 In order to enable thewidest possible distribution of sugar 50 that all may have some sugar-we distribute Domino Cane Sugars in convenient. size packages.
 These small unit cartons and cotton bags enable Sro- cers to limit their sales SO that waste and hoardinG may be prevented.
 It will be necessary tor grocers and consumers to watch carefully their distri- button and purchases during the approaching period of re- adjustment. The refineries are now starting up and SUD- plies of raw sugar coming for ward, but it will take weeks. and possibly mouths, for the return of normal conditions.
 Housewives can cooperate with this plan by buying these package sugars. times it is our aim to of the public we serve. 'efini1ag Company 'ith Domino''

Sugar and Ships

In the interest of the public it serves, the American Sugar Refining Company is earnestly supporting the Governments policy to regulate the supply of sugar so that it shall be sufficient for the needs of all-our soldiers, Our Allies and ourselves.
 With the crop of sugar coming in, the sugar situation is favorable than it month ago. There will be sugar enough according present indications e travasant and waste avoided.

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-01-28

war mas disturbed tn e whole worlds sugar supply. It has not only wiped out any available surplus, but it has put all nations on a hand-to- mouth basis.
 The European Allies were the first to feel the pinch. Before the war. enough sugar was produced on the Con- tinent to supply all Europe. Today, two thirds of this sugar-producing area is with in the battle lines.
 England, France and other nations have had to turn elsewhere for a supply of this indispensable food.
 And they came to Cuba the main source upon which the United States depends for its cane sugar. During 1917, Cuba sold and shipped to Europe nearly 1,OOO.0 .0OQ tons of raw SuSar-one-third of its crop.
 In addition to the normal increase in the consumption of sugar as food in this coun- try, the nationwide move ment to save the fruit crop last season greatly increased its use.
 But this increased con- sumption of sugar has been a real factor in combating waste. It enabled the Ameri- can housewife to add to the store of the food of the na- ton at a time when fruits and vegetables were plenti- ful and cheap.
 The sugar is not only in the fruit jar, but it has carried into the pantries of the coun- try a vast supply of fruit and vegetables whi oh would otherwise have been lost. Sugar itself is not only a food, but it is also the great pre- server of other foods.
 As the demand for sugar grew, both here and abroad, Cuba's supply was exhausted last fall. Every available ton in Porto Rico and other cane sugar countries was ac- Quired. But this was not enough, and the shortage came.
 In war time and at al
 safeguard the interests American Sugar.
