Conference OF Retail Dealers
With Food Administration
At Orlando November is

Orlando, Nov 8..-Federal Food
Administrator Braxton Beacham has
agreed to q conference with the re-
tail dealers in feed who wish to pre-
sent to him their arguments in favor
Of change in the present rules
which regulate the profits that can be
charged by the retailer.
The conference will be held in Or
lando in Friday, November Is, at 10
a. m, and will be open to all who
wish to attend. The action of Mr..
Beacham follows complaints from
certain dealers in Tampa, st. Peters
burg, Jacksonville, and few other
places. The contention of the deal
ers is that they are not able to make
living profit under the margins that
have been named, and they through
letters and petitions have asked for
an opportunity to present their side
OF the situation.
The meeting place has not been Sc
lected as yet. but it is probable that
It will take place In the new Chamber
of Commerce rooms at Orlando, which
were formerly occupied by the Co.
l0nial Inn.
Mr.. Beacham desires the presence

When the complainant asked the
defendant where he stood in the
draft for the United States army, &C.
cording to the bill, he informed her
that he wasn't going to be drafted
and that If he was drafted he
wouldn't fight; that his country had
done nothing to him and he would
not fight; that he was a German and
with the German side and his wife
was in duty bound to be with him
and on his side in the war between
the United States and GERMANY
When the defendant got to talking
