The majority of these were not cities
but country districts.
Iowa, a typical agricultural state,
was the first to subscribe its quota
and was followed by Oregon, Arkan-
sas, Kentucky, and other states in
which agriculture is the leading in
dustry.
1t is impossible to give accurate
figures but it is estimated that while
only per cent of the farming popu-
lation of the United States subscribed
to the first and second loans, prob
ably ten times as many subscribed to
the third. The significance is in
creased by the facts that the heavy
subscription was made at season
when the farmers are ordinarily on
the borrowing and not on the lending
and investment side of the warket,
and when the farms of the country
are speeded up to the limit.
This wide distribution of the third
loan among the whole people shows
that the body Of the nation has be-
come aroused and gone into action
that the sense of duty and the neces-
sity for individual support of the
country has permeated the whole
people. Secretary McAdoo may justly
be enthused over the result and call
1t the soundest national financing in
the world. Eyery Liberty bond hold

and every time you exchange your
sixteen thrift stamps for a war saw
ingo stamp, you are In really big
way contributing to the strength Of
your country and its cause. That is
only part of what you are doing, how
ever.
In an equally big way you are con-
tributing to your own strength, for
you are laying up money in the SAT-
est possible way and at good rate
Of interest.
You are learning the first lesson
Of success-saving. Really you are
doing more for yourself than you are
doing for your country, and yet your
country gets the benefit of it just
as if you were not doing anything at
all for yourself.
So of all the twin benefits that
ever came walking down the trail Of
time, this little green stamp is the
most remarkable.
At one and the same time it de-
fends and teaches-helps to defend
US against foe insistent upon TAX
ing from us the most precious thing
We have, and helps to teach us the
lesson that we must learn in order
to keep and really use these precious
things after we have driven off the
devils who are trying to take them
from US.
1t gives to two parties at the same
time.
II gives to the government and ii
gives to you. 1t spends for the gov
ernment and it saves for you. 1t en-
ables person to eat his cake and
still have it-and that is a very re-
markable thing.
For it helps to provide the money
that protects your property and your
life and at the same time that money
and more will come back to you at
the end of few years.
So it comes that the thrift stamp
is very wonderful thing, and on
this day, which is set aside to en-
phasize its value, every man, woman
and child in the nation should get
acquainted with its numerous and un-
usual advantages by buying one or
more.

PURCHASE OF W. S. S.
BIG HELP TO NATION

The nation is preparing for the OBJ
seryance of war savings stamp
pledge day, June 2S, on which date
it is expected to pledge itself to the
purchase of 100000 worth of
war savings stamps before January
l, 1919. Every man, woman and
child in the state is supposed to have
at least $40 worth of war stamps
by that date, if Oregon is to main
tain its record in support of war fl
nancing propositions.

FARMERS RALLIED TO
SUPPORT OF COUNTRY

Next to the aggregate number Of
subscriptions perhaps the most strik-
ing feature of the Third Liberty loan
was the support given 1t by the farm
ing and rural populations of the
country. Not only did the farmers
purchase literally of the bonds, but
the rural communities as a rule were
more prompt in completing their quo
tas of the loan than the larger. cities.
More than 10000 communities in the
United States subscribed or oversub-
scribed their quotas, many of them
on the first day OF the campaign.

BREAD CALL
FOR USE OF WHEAT

In response to many inquiries as
to why bakeries and logging camps,
along with hospitals, are made eX-
ceptions in the agreement which the
food administration has asked all
flour dealers to enter into, discontiu-
uing the sale of wheat flour through
the month of June or longer periods,
H. II. Haynes, chief of the baking
division for the food administration
in Oregon, explains:
Logging camps and bakeries are
already under federal license and reg
ulation, which curtails their use of
white flour substantially and neces-
states the use of heavy percentage
of substitutes. That is one phase of
the matter.
Many persons wonder why, if the
housewife is expected to make wheat
less breads, the baker is not also
asked to do so. The answer will be
obvious to anyone who will give the
matter a little consideration, and
here is another phase of the situa-
tion:
There are many formulas for quick
breads that call for absolutely no
wheat, and these are available to the
housewife, whose product is eaten
hot or at least while fresh. Such
breads are made with baking powder
or soda. But these breads will not
do for the baker, who must produce
a loaf that will stand up" under
repeated landings, transportation to
the retail dealer, and delivery from
retailer to consumer, arriving in good
condition and palatable to the taste.
Extensive experiments have shown
that baking powder or soda loaves
cannot be depended upon to meet
these difficulties. Therefore, we must
make yeast breads, and it is diff
cult to make yeast bread without
considerable percentage of wheat
flour.
Bakers are now making it success
fully with two-thirds the volume
made up of substitutes. Some of our
bakers have produced successful
loaves with a higher substitute con-
tent. Our bakers chemists are con-
tinuously experimenting in the effort
to still further cut down the wheat
flour percentage and at the same
time produce an acceptable CONNER
cial loaf. The problem is not an easy
one. Our bakers are all cooperating
with the food administration in o
splendid spirit and are doing all that
is practicable to cut down their con-
sumption of white flour.
Conditions in the logging camps
are similar to those of the bakeries,
and that is why they are, with the
bakeries and hospitals, made excep-
tions in the food administrations re-
quest.

No action was taken by the State

the terms to be offered the Board of
Prison Control for prisoners employed
on the State roads The Roads Com
mission wants a large number of pris-
ouers and the Prison Board is willing
to let it have them, but there is con-
siderable difference Of opinion between
the two bodies as to the price to be
paid
The Prison Board wants the Roads
Commission TO pay at the rate paid

Roads Commission thinks that is too
high. II is probable that at the last,
Governor Harrington will act as ar
bitter He was present at the meeting
of the commission yesterday, but left
before thorough discussion of the mat
ter could be had There will be an
other meeting on the matter next
week between the officials of the two
boards
1t is probable that the prison labor
will be used on the Baltimore and
Washington Boulevard first Chair
man Zouck has been apprehensive for
months that that road would go 10
pieces under the heavy traffic which
has been going over it since the es-
i tablishment of Camp Meade and the
| smaller military camp at Laurel. The
| army keeps numerous big trucks in
constant movement over the road and
they wear away rapidly.

BENFIELD RALLY
FOR LIBERTY LOAN
Enthusiastic Meeting Under The
Auspices Of Woman's Ma
tional Loan Committee.

The hall at Benfeld, Anne Arundel
county, was the scene of most enthu-
siastic meeting last night in the inter
ests of the Third Liberty Loan. The
Rev. c. ID. Taylor, rector of the Ben
field Church, acted as chairman and
introduced the SPEAKERS after having
first briefly addressed the audience Of
about eighty people, on their duty TO
Uncle Sam in the war.
Mr. w. X Boswell, of Waterbury,
was the first speaker. He gave most
effectiye talk on the Liberty Loan,
which was received with enthusiasm.
The next feature on the program was
an exhibition of war pictures given
with a new and improved type of ster-
eopticon which may be operated with
Presto lite on occasions where cleo
trictiy is not available. The machine
belongs to the Women's Council of De-
Tense and will be most useful in all
kinds of war propaganda work.
The stereopticon views were follow
ed by a patriotic address by Prof
Theodore w Johnson. He spoke very
forclbly, and effectively brought nome
to his audience the great debt we owe
to England and France and that every
man, woman and child must feel that
they are in the war just as much as
the brave boys who are now crossing
the seas, and those who are already at
the front Patriotic music rendered by
six members of the Naval Academy
band stirred the hearts of those who
heard the National songs and the mod
ern popular war melodies. The meet
ing was great success in every way
and a large part of this success was
due to the efforts of Miss Jennie
Pumphrey and her assistants. Two
thousand two hundred and fifty dol
lars was subscribed before the meet
ing was closed with the Star Spangled
Banner played in a most inspiring
manner, while every person in the aU-
dience stood at attention"

Article XVI of the Constitution.
which is the Referendum Section of
the States organic law. to he found on
page 1141 Of the Constitution, has his
to say of the application of a referen-
dunn on acts of legislation:
''PrOVided, however. that no
measure creating or abOlishing
any Office or changing the salary,
term or duty OF any officer. or
granting any franchise or special
privilege, or creating any vest
cd right, or interest shall be en-
acted rs an emergency law"
The Annapolis Water Company law
signed on Wednesday of this week by
Governor Harrington, is designated in
its concluding clause as an "Fmer-
gency Act" and as such had to re-
ceiye and did get three-fifths vote i'm
both House and Senate, This. i'm the
opinion of those who have looked into
the matter, clearly classifies il as the
type of act which cannot, if il con-
tains certain kinds of legislation. be
enacted without conflicting with the
referendum section of the Constitu-
ton.
IL is then pointed out that the
Water Company bill clearly contains
some of the legislation prohibited by
Section XVI. II plainly creates.
an office for the City Counsellor who.
under the old law, is not member of
the Board of Directors OF the Water
Company, and does the same for
third member of the municipal cor
poration who must, in the language of
the law, be "an Alderman of the
municipal corporation of Annapolis. OF
the opposite political party of the ma
Jority of the said municipal corpora
ton" Thus two offices are created.
If the opinion of those raising the
question is sound
1t was asserted today that an addi-
tional point i'm which the Water Com
pany bill apparently clashes seriously
with the constitutional provision is bv
apparently allowing the City Coun-
sellor and the Aldermen, as addi-
tional members of the Board Of Di-
rectors of the Company, the regular
Directors pay, thereby, i'm the
language of the Constitution. chang
ing the salary" in addition to changing
the duties, of these two officers.
