tanned in a revised order issued last

tors. including Mr.. Weaver:
1T is agreed by the food and fuel
administrations all wholesale and re-
tail stores dealing in foods should close

March rs from patriotic motives, except
when the closing will interfere with
the sufficient distribution Of food for
the immediate needs Of the communi-
ties. Necessity for remaining open and
heated to be determined by local food
administrator. who shall notify local
fuel administrator"
Acting under this instruction, Clar-
ence r. Wilson. food administrator for
the District, asked Mr.. Weaver to make
a general exemption for all food deal
ers in Washington. Mr.. Wilson con-
tended al1-day opening was public
necessity in this city in view of the
fact that the great bulk of the capitals
industry was in full operation Mondays

ruling are limited to the sale Of food
