GRUB IS FISH WRITES FRENCH
 NOW IN FRISCO

Grub is grub and at that mostly fish, and hard to get, no matter if you have the money, is the way Neil s. French, expresses it in a letter re- ceived in Seward MT. French was formerly with J. L. Graef but is now working in San Francisco.
 We have had summer weather here so far this winter" writes French "and have had no rain which is work ing a great hardship, drying up things and not permitting of grain planting. It looks as if grub was going to be scarce and the government is now putting every old kind of fish on the market, including shark, and even this is hard to secure, under the name of grey fish, at 6 to II cents a pound. Salmon has been selling at p to 27 cents a pound and there has been no halibut. Common old black cod is selling from ' to 10 cents a pound. l tell you the people will have to come to fish. Now the government is put ting the limit on what food you can purchase even if you do have the money, it doesn't do any good for you are only allowed so much. I tell you it is fierce and if you don't believe

feet of this new plan, it was brought out, is that sugar is supplied to the consumers at about two cents a pound less than would otherwise be the case, while at the same time domestic pro- duction is maintained at full tilt
 Considerable discussion was devoted to the new Victory flour containing 20 per cent substitutes, which the food administration is endeavoring to have placed on the markets everywhere. Mir Hoover pointed out at the confer ence that a mixture of barley flour or corn flour of the type now standard ized makes as good a bread as any clear white bread on earth. He said that the mere suggestion that mixed breads have any dietetic damage in herent in them only raises a laugh in Europe. where bread has been mix ed with as high 75 per cent substitutes durinng the past year and comprises everything from beans to potatoes.

EAT LESS AND WASTE LESS IS ADMONITION

FOOD ADMINISTRATOR RIoRpAN ASKS PEOPLE TO HELP SAVE FOOD FOR OUR ALLIES BY PRAc- TlclNG RIGID PERSONAL ECON OMY IN ALL WAYS
Special to Tue RevIew)


 FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Sept 26.-Eat less and waste less. Save on all foods. Practice thrift and economy in every thing.
 This in brief is the food conservation program for the next twelve months. according to Timothy A. Riordan. fed eral food administrator for Arizona, who has just returned from an import ant conference of state food admins trators held in Washington.
 Herbert Hoover addressed the con ference at several sessions, relating conditionns as he found them with the allied nations during his recent trip to Europe. reviewing the work of the past year and outlining plans for the second years work of the food ad- ministratiOn.
 "One point was emphasized above all others at this conferences, said Mr. Riordan, "and that was that we must make greater efforts than ever be- fore if we are to keep up the good work which has resulted in sus- taining our valient fighters in their gloriously successful attacks on the Huns.
 The situation with the allies as revealed by Mir. Hoover is encouraging in the extreme, both as to food sup plies, crops and the general morale of the peoples. Our own harvests have been splendid. thanks to the American farmer to produce more. He has produced more. Nevertheless the general situation is critical, or rather I would put it, it may become critical at any time if there is any let-up our efforts to save and economize.
 ''The big problem before the food ad- ministratiOn just now, says RiOrdan, is to build up reserve supplies of wheat, meat and other commodities. Through the food administration we were able to send 10,000,0O0 tons of food across the water last year" he said. During the coming twelve months we are asked to send 15,000,00 tons, which means that every consum- CT must increase conservation and de- crease consumption by 50 per cent.
 ''The big problem before the food administration just now" says Rior- dan, ''is the building of huge reserve supplies of beef, wheat and other com modities. The demand for fats among the allies will be greater than ever.
 That a sugar famine, to certain To- calities, at least, has been averted by the establishment of the United States sugar equalization board, was the con sensus of opinion among officials at tending the conference. Another eff

 Very Urgent,
 To the commissar of foreign affairs In accordance with your request, the intelligence section on November 2s sent to Rostof Mai von Boehlke, who arranged there a survey over the forces of the Don Troop government. The major also organized a detachment of prisoners of war, who took part in the battles. In this case, the prison CTS of war, in accordance with the di- rections given by the July conference at Kronstadt, participated in by Messrs. Lenin, Zinovieff, Kameneff, Raskolnikoff. Dybenko, Shisko, Anton ogg, -Krilenko, Volodarsky; and Podvoi- sky, were dressed in Russian army and navy uniforms. Maj. von BOehlke took part in commanding, but the con flicting orders of the official com mander Arnautoff and the taentless activity of the scout Tulak paralyzed the plans of our officer.
 The agents sent by order from Pe- trograd to kill Gems. Kaledin, Bogaev- sky, and Alexieff were cowardly and nonenterprising people. Agents passed through to Karauloff The communi- cations of Gen. Kaledin with the Amer jeans and English are beyond doubt, but they limit themselves entirely to financial assistance. Maj. von Boehlke returned to Petrograd and will make a report today at the office of the chairman of the council at 10 D. m.

 To the President of the Council of Peoples Commissars. Not having re- ceived an exact answer to my ques- tion of the 18th of February, l now have the honor to request you to in form me in the shortest possible time the numbers and kind of forces sent to Pskoff and Narva.
 At the same time at the orders of the representative of our general staff l once more remind you of the desirability of naming General Parski 70 the post of commander in chief of the Russian armed forces, in place of General nch-Bruevich, whose ac- tions do not meet the approval of the German High Council. Since the attacks on the lives and property of the German landowners in Est land and Lifland, which, according to our information, were carried out with the knowledge of General Bonch- Bruevich, and his nationalistic ac- tions in Orla, his continuance in the position of general is particularly no longer desirable.-Head of the De- partment, Agasfer.
 
 Send to Trotsky and Podvoisky. (Signed) N. G." ,(Gorbunov's initials) Observe the mandatory nature of the whole letter and particularly of the first paragraph. Agasfer, as will be shown presently. is the cipher sigma ture of Major Luberts, head of the Petrograd intelligence department of the German general staff, the chief branch of the Russian division of the GermaR general staff. the head of which is Major Rausch, referred to in this letter as the representative of "our General Staff" Apparently both Luberts and Rausch wrote a warning against sending any patriots to the defending forces and seemingly the Bolshevik effort at obedience as indi- cated in document No. was not fast enough to suit the German martinets. Podois5y was minister of war.
 General Parski was appointed to the command of the Petrograd district, and as late as June 14 still held the post He formerly was in command of the city of Riga, which was sur rendered to the Germans without ade- ouate defense in the early autumn of 1917.

 To the commission for combating the counter-revolution: The commissar on combating the counterrevolution in a cipher telegram, No. 235, demanded the sending of special agents to hieff and Novocherkask.
 There have been sent Comrades Vlasenko, Gavrilchuk, and Korablev, who have more than once very sue cessfully performed information service. The commissar in his cipher telegram indicates that the German and Austrian agents assigned from Petrograd, Lieuts. Ott Kremer, Blum, and Vasilko. are playing a dOu- ble role, reporting on what is happen ing at Petrograd, and they carry on an intennsive agitation in favor of a sep arate peace of the Ukraine with the central powers, and for the restoring of order Their work is having sue cess.
 To Siberia have been ordered Com rades Trefilev and Shepshelevich, in connection with your report of the pur- chase and export of gold by Austrian prisoners in Siberia. - Director of Counterespionage Feierabend.
 Note.-So stands disclosed the man ner in which Germany set about to double-cross, the BolsheviH servants who in success had become at times uppish in bargaining with their mas ters. It was not a part of the German program to create in Russia power which it could not at any time control, or, if need be, overturn. Its plan here had the additional advantage of not only disciplining the Petrograd Bolshe- viks but also of disunifying Russia still further. It worked out to a sep arate peace with Ukraine and a sep arate peace with northern Russia. Lieut. Otto is the Konshin afterwards arrested for some unknown betrayal. See document, No. 2.

There have been no dietary troubles in the population there and the num- Der of persons seeking white flour through doctors certificates have dwindled to such an extent that they have abolished them altogether.
 The problems of profiteering and price control were also discussed in full. The fair price publication, says Riordan. has worked out to a great ad- vantage in many communities and he has no doubt but that it is having a desirable effect in this state.
 Hoover expressed qualification over the organization of county food admin istrators and their organizations of deputies and volunteer inspectors, which has been built up in this state and sent them a special message of reorganization for their splendid ser vice.
