SALOON KEEPERS
Get PREPARED

Richmond saloon keepers are pre-
pairing themselves for a court decis-
ion in favor of their interests.
Monday several of them called at
County Auditor Bowmans office and
procured copies Of advertisements Of
former years, announcing their inten-
tion to apply for licenses.
Licenses must be applied for by the
first Monday of April, which this year
falls on April 3. Notices of intention
to apply must be printed in the news
papers at least 20 days before that
date.
1t is customary for saloonkeepers to
get copies of their former advertise
ments so they may copy them.
This does not imply court action in
Wayne county, 1t merely means the
saloonkeepers want to be prepared
if a favorable decision is given, so
they may continue their business un-
interruptedly.
This is a matter of such wide
spread interest that it is likely the
supreme court will be required to give
decision within the next theirty
days and the saloon men say they
want to be prepared said Bowman.

have the means of controlling the ma

to the advantage of Germany?
These questions may be scoffed at
and ridiculed by superficial observers,
and denounced as mares nests. Yet
they must commend themselves to
every impartial student of the clever
course adopted by the Kaiser not long
after the memorable incident in Manila
Bay--an incident which originated in
the indiscretion of an American diplo-
mat stationed at Berlin, and brought
the United States and German to the
very brink of war in 1898.

EAT MORE MEAT
AND LESS BREAD
HOOVER APPEAL
Meatless Meal Each Day and
Porkless Saturday Bar
Is Off.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March f.
Owing to increasing demand of the
allies for breadstuffs and the increas
ed necessity for conservation OF
wheat, the food administration has de
cided to relax voluntary restrictions
on meat consumption with view tc
further decreasing bread consump
tion
To this end Food Administrator
Hoover announced today that the
neatless meal each day and the pork
less Saturday are no longer neces
sary, but urges the public still to ad
here to the beefless and porkless
Tuesday.
THE allies have made further and
increased demands for breadstuffs. -
MI Hoover said, these enlarged de-
mands being caused to some degree by
shortage in arrivals from the Argen-
tine. 1t is, therefore, necessary for
the food administration to urge still
further reduction in the consumption
of bread and breadstuffs
Meat Is More Plentiful.
Experience shows that the con-
sumption of breadstuffs is intimately
associated with the consumption of
meat For various reasons our sup
plies of meat for the next two or
three months are considerably enlarg-
ed and we can supply the allies with
all of the meat products which trans
portation facilities make possible and
at the same time somewhat increase
our own consumption. In these cir.
cumstances the food administration
considers to relax tho coluntary re-
strictlons on meat consumptions to
some extent with view to further
decreasing bread consumption.
So long as the present conditions
continue the only special restrictions
we ask are beefless and porkless
Tuesday.
THE meatless meal and the pork
less Saturday are no longer asked.
More Pork Is Available.

BRIDGE WORK
May RESUME

Another effort will be made by the
county commissioners to obtain the
completion of the Main street bridge.
A committee was appointed by the
commissioners at their meeting Mon
day to interview the Richmond freight
officials of the Pennsylvania railroad
and attempt to obtain sufficient box
cars to haul crushed stone here from
New Paris. The committee consists
of County Auditor Bowman, William
K. Cheesman. president of the COM
missioners, Stanley w. Hayes, chair
man of the committee on public i'm
provements of the Commercial club,
Isaac W. Smith, the contractor. and
John w. Mueller, the engineer
The completion of the bridge has
been held up because it has been i'm
possible to use freight cars for haul
ing stone during the winter months
as all the cars were utilized in coal
shipments. Communication was made
with the war department at Washing
ton in an effort to obtain the ship
ment but the magnitude of the work
which already occupies the depart
ment made it impossible to obtain
help from that source.
1t is necessary to have the bridge
improvement completed as quickly as
possible, in order that the National
road, which passes through the city,
may be considered for a military road,
over which the proposed motor truck
mail service will pass. The officials
will attempt to have work resumed by
the middle of March, they stated Mon
day.
A renewal of liquor licenses was
granted by the commissioners Mon
day to Henry Shannon, S29 North E
street, and Frank Mccoy, 1913 Fort
Wayne street. The renewals extend
to April ,, when the state prohibition
law becomes effective.

patrol OF thirteen men which went out
when the raid began and has not been

no prisoners from the American

Details of the German attack which
failed completely to reach the trenches
are now available. American artillery
men laid down barrage fire as soon
as the Germans started these. It is
known that three companies of espec-
tally trained "shock troops which had
been practicing for this operation for
two weeks. took part in the attack.
Each company was preceded by pick
ed party Of 20 pioneers.
Germans are Killed.
The fighting was brisk for about an
hour, but the accurate machine gun
and rifle fire from the American front
lines coupled with the perfect Ameri-
can barrage which prevented reinforce
ments from coming up, forced the Ger
mans to withdraw after sustaining
heavy casualties and without having
set foot in the American trenches.
Soon after the attack was over a
young lieutenant commanding a
platoon, members of which composed
the patrolling party which had gone
out into No Mans Land, went out to
find them, but without result He re-
turned to his trench and asked for
voluntary detail.
Every man in the platoon volun-
teered but the lieutenant picked out
small party and set out again. They
were forced to return however when
the German fire became increasingly
heavy. The lieutenant and a detail
made third search just before dawn,
but without success. All the missing
men came from New England.
The American general commanding
the unit on this front said the men
were eager for action and were con.
tinually asking permission to remain
in the front line longer than the allot-
ted period. II has been found necess-

Chairman Carr Of the Richmond

The Richmond board can supply

Under Nep Army Head

General William B. March, new chief
of staff of the American army, has one
staunch admirer In Richmond.
The admirer is Clyde Regal, 515
North Nineteenth street, who served
with March in the Philippines
''He was our major and he was a
bang-up soldier as ever l met. He
never was at loss for action and he
pulled his command out of many a
tight hole through his cool headed de-
cisions," says Regal by way of tri-
butte.

Meatless Days Apply to Dogs and
Cats as Well as Humans--Gilbert

Meatless days apply to cats and
dogs as we'll as humans. rules Food
Administrator Gilbert.
Numerous complaints made to po-
lice and to newspaper reporters
prompted The Palladium to seek a
ruling from the administrator
These complaints said that many
householders refuse to comply with
meatless regulations when it comes
to family pets, holding that dogs re-
quire meat daily.
Gilbert said he had heard none of
these complaints
IF there are persons who persist
in feeding dogs or cats on meatless
days they deserve severe censure,"
he said. I'VE must not deprive hui
