WILLIAMS TAKES STEP
TO CHECK BOARDING
Food Administrator Will Take
Drastic Action to Stop the
boarding of Food

Determined to request no
more, but to enforce the strong
arm of the law against hoard
ers of food products in general
and those who purchase excess
sive quantities of sugar and
flour in particular, Hamp Will
liams, federal food admins
traitor for Arkansas, has issued
one of the mot drastic and
sweeping orders since his APP
pointment.
The order was instructions
to County food administrators
throughout the State to make
a personal inspection, with the
assistance of chiefs of police
and sheriffs as special food in
vestigators, ascertain where
food products that could not
possibly be used within a rea-
sonable time are stored, and
order that those possessing the
same return the food to the
stores where such goods were
purchased. In other words the
big stick" of the food admin
istartion is going to fall on
those who have thus far SEEM
ingly imagined that the rules
and regulations of the United
States government were to be
broken with impunity and the
law made a joke of.
By the first of next week the
food administrator will issue to
the proper county officers a
supply of official Food Pur-
chase Receipts and Declara-
tions," which must be signed
by every one purchasing flour
and sugar. Any grocer selling
those products who does not
compel the purchaser to sign
such a receipts and declaration
will get into serious trouble.
The receipt contains list of
substitutes for flour. The pur-
chaser is forced to specify the
substitutes he has on hand. If
he possesses no substitute and
declines to buy any, the grocer
is not permitted to sell him
flour If he desired a 24-pound
sack Of flour the purchaser
must also buy an equal amount
of substitutes and state his will
| llngneSS TO use SAID substitutes
when the flour is used.
Farmers, however, generally
have the substitutes. In such
cases the farmers order for
flour is cut to 70 per cent of
what he desired, but in no case
is he permitted to buy more
than a 80 days supply, save in
instances where he lives in a
remote part of the country,
when he is permitted to take
home supply to last 60 days.

PLAN To PUT In new
GIN AT BATESVILLE
Company Is Being Organized
Among Farmers to Put In
Modern Plant

Batesville, Feb.13.-A large
number of farmers have con-
ceived the idea of putting in
modern gin plant in Batesville
and it is their idea that a stock
company should be formed at
once, plans be made and site
be selected for the enterprise
III order that everything may
be IN readiness to take care of
the demand for such a plant
when the cotton season opens
next fall.
It is a we'll known fact that
the farmers coming to Bates
vile to have their cotton GIN
ned have been delayed for
hours here on account of the
inadequate gin facilities and
the rush and overcrowded con-
dition of gins in operation here.
This has always been great
source of annoyance to farm
ers who come here to have
their cotton ginned.
1t is the desire of all those
interested to get still more far
mers interested in the new con-
Germ and have all or a very
large part of the stock SUBJ
seribed by farmers allowing
only a small amount to each
subscriber. 1t is thought by
those who have investigated
the matter that the concern
should be capitalized at $1O,-
100000 paid up capital. If the
farmers own and control the
gin they will be transacting
with a concern in which they
will be directly interested.
There will be a large crop
of cotton planted this year and
the new gin will be in a posi-
ton to pay from the very start.
All those interested in the
proposition are asked to meet
at the County Court House next
Saturday at 2 o'clock p. m.
when the matter will be fully
discussed. 1t is hoped that a
large number of farmers and
in fact all who are interested
will be present.
1t will be the purpose of the
concern to give each stockhold-
er equal voice in the manage
ment of the new gin and the
board of directors will be sell
ected by the stockholders in
accordance with this purpose.
The books to be kept will be
subject to the inspection of ev-
cry stakeholder and the bust
ness run on a basis of fairness
to all concerned.
All the plans have been laid
before County Agent Leland
Bunch and anyone wishing to
know any information in this
regard may call on him and he
will be glad to discuss the mat

America on July is already being

appropriate celebrations are being
sent out by the committee on public
information OF the National Council of
Defense. The national council is re-
questing the State and county coun-
ellis and the State divisions OF the
womans committee to make plans for
the Fourth OF July celebrations. Citi-

The Mayor Is made the chief ex-
ecutive officer. and has TO assist him
in the administration Of his duties an
advisory board composed of tho heads

mated law. finance. public works well

This plan was adopted by tho Com
mon Council by an overwhelming ma
1ority and concurred in by the Board
of Aldermen by almost n unanimous
vote. Slight opposition was mustered
in hearing before committee OF
the General Assembly. but the bill
was adopted with few opposing votes.

cial election not later than August 81.
