The same situation was reported
from the glass factories and potter

DEALERS |NDORSE
STATION CLOSING
Night and Sunday CurtaiI-
ment Needed to Conserve
''Gas," They Declare.

In explaining it's attitude regarding
night and Sunday closing of service
and gasoline stations the National
Automobile Dealers Association. in g
recent statement, says:
The keeping open of service sta
tions. oil and. supply depots. requires
labor, which is manifestly for the pur-
pose of making it easier to use auto
mobiles for pleasure purposes. and as
labor is one of the scarcest commodi-
ties at this time, every saving in this
direction is not only necessary but
imperative. There is plenty of gaso-
line and oil for automobile use. if it
is nationally and sensibly used, but
there will not be enough if the auto
mobile user continues tc waste it by
using his automobile unnecessarily"
This action. which has been adopted
by the majority of service stations in
many large cities. was taken to pre-
vent drastic action by the government,
as intimated a few days ago by M. L:
Requa. director of the oil division of
the fuel administration. who said:
THE question of gasoline conserva-
ton is of pressing importance:
"If the consumer will exercise care
against waste it will POSTPONE and
probably avert the necessity. of severe
restrictive action. But if gasoline and
other oil products are not conserved
drastic means of control will be i'm
perative il we are to meet the needs of
our armies. those of the allies and our
home demands.
The consuming public should real
ize the seriousness of the situation
and yet there is no wish to enforce
regulation that will hamper or restrict
the legitimate use of automobiles,
motor boats or gasoline engines. If
every one will be careful not to waste
gasoline and lubricating oil there will
oe plenty to go around.
But there is not enough gasoline
and oil to meet all needs unless the
thoughtless and careless waste is
eliminated"

that six new institutions were opened

Zionist Troops in War.
One organiza ton of Jewish soldiers
played a part in the glorious but ILL
fated Gallipoli campaign. This force.
known as the Zion Mule Corps, was
organized from among those Jews
who were compelled to flee from Pal
estine at the outbreak of the war be-
cause they refused to become Otto
man subjects.
Unframed in the arts of war, yet
eager to do their bit. they volunteered
for the unmartial tasks that are a
part of any military campaign.
They were prepared to carry water
and to lead the mules carrying am
munition to the first line trenches.
They were PLACED under the COM
mand of Col. Patterson. the brilliant
1rishman who has since sung their
fame in the notable book entitled
With the Zionists at Gallipoli" He
tells how. in the face of shot and
shell. in the very thick of the fray.
they went resolutely about their
task.
And he tells of that remarkable
moment when the Royal Iniskillins
Regiment had gotten into a tight
place. These muleteers abandoned
their appointed tasks. not to flee to
a place of safety. but to jump into
the trench. and. taking rifles from
dead soldiers hands. fought as val
iantly as ''the ladies from hell and
won the day.
Out of this Zion Mule Corps has
grown the Jewish Legion. organized
in America, England and Canada
from among Jews who for one reason
or another Except phySicaD are in
eligible to the draft in the country
of their residence. Fifteen hundred
have already gone to Palestine from
America, and they have Joined a the
front the Jewish regiment which
was organized in London, and which
has already received its baptism of
fire somewhere north of Jaffa.
Other contingents are preparing to
go from America. and still others
from Canada. There is hard fighting
ahead of Palestine. but these men are
going prepared to make the supreme
sacrifice because they know that in
doing this they are giving their
utmost to speed the day when the
blue and white flag of Zion. with the
six-cornered star of David in the
center. will float proudly among the
flags of the free nations.

That the American soldiers in
France know how to deal with Ger
man kultur is shown clearly in a
letter from George W. Loving. bugler
of Company D. 1a6th Infantry. to his
parents. Mr.. and Mrs. James A. Low
ing, 1881 Belmont street
From his cot in a base hospital,
where he is recovering from a slight
"gassing," young Loving wrote about
the fight in which he was overcome.
One incident he described in the fol-
lowing few words:
The first German our company
captured was a Red Cross man. and
there were seven other hatheads with
him. When one of our boys went to
search him the German shot him
through the head. Just while later
passed that spot and saw eight dead
Dutchmen. These are the kind Of
people we have to fight against"
Young Loving proudly told his
mother that he knows he got" at
least one Hun before the gas knocked
him out.
TT was a great battle the soldier
continued. I'VE mixed it with the
best the kaiser has and came out on
top.
II saw the Germans close and can
truthfully say that l killed one be-
fore I got mine. The FritZy l got
was behind a tree and was evidently
a sniper. because the Germans used
mostly machine guns against us in
order to stem US for while. while
their infantry was getting away.
The Germans don't like to meet
the Yanks hand to hand. because We
are more than a match for them.
When We close in on them they most
always try the kamarad stuff, but
that don't work with the Americans
any more. Where our regiment was
chasing them neither side took any
prisoners. 1t was lucky Dutchman
who got wounded before he fell in
our hands"
Loving is only nineteen years old
and was formerly in Company X of
the District National Guard. He
spent SIX months on the Mexican
border before this country went to
wHr against Germany.
