TIE DAYLIGHT SAVING BILL
Clocks To Be Pushed Forward One
Hour On March 81.

Clocks To Be Pushed Forward One
Hour On March 81.
The Daylight Saving bill was
signed last week by President Will
son. 1t puts all clocks forward an
hour, the last Sunday in March
March 31) and turns them back
again the last Sunday in October
October 27.)
The daylight saving plan wilfNgo
into effect and be observed without
the slightest disorganization or i'm
pairment of existing conditions.
Trains will run as usual. Every
feature of daily life into which the
element of time enters will remain
unchanged.
Before retiring the last Saturday
of this month, the American house,
holder will set his clock an hour
ahead. He then may go to sleep
and forget entirely about daylight
saving until the last Saturday of
October.
On that date he will reverse the
process, turning back the hands of
the clock an hour. The next day
the nation again will run on sun"
time.
In the summer, the American man
actually will rise, transact his daily
business and retire an hour earlier
than has been his custom. With his
clock an hour fast, he will not know
the difference. An hour of daylight
thus will be saved in the afternoon
The plans practicability and
efficiency have been demonstrated in
twelve European countries. Advo
Gates of the plan, presenting their
case to Congress, explained the fol-
lowing beneficial results would be
achieved:
A great saving of illuminants,
such as Oil, gas and electric power.
+ Marked conservation of coal
Increased manufacturing produc-
ton as the result of Improvement in
working conditions.
General benefits to the national
health, because of an additional
hour of daylight which may be de-
voted to recreation.
Reduction in the cost Of living to
some who can raise garden truck
for domestic consumption.
improvement of training condi-
lions for the fighting forces.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mittee of the House, submitting al
favorable report on the measure,
urged it's passage for the following
sit is fairly calculated TO accom-
plish valuable economies in our ma
tional life;
"The comfort and convenience OF
many millions of our people will be
promoted by it's passage, and
"It is regarded as of special value
in the present national emergency"

ADOPT ZONE SYSTEM OF
COAL DISTRIBUTION
tBy Associated Press.l

Washington, March Coon pletion
Of its zone system Of coal distribu-
ton designed to bring about econ
omies OF transportation and in
creased production was announced
last night by the fuel administration.
Railroad embarRoes will be used to
enforce operation Of the plan.
Anthracite and coke are not affect
ed, neither is coal used by railroads,
nor particular kinds used for speci-
fic purposes such as production OF
certain by-products and gas. Coal
moved on inland waterways and that
exported to Canada are not includ-
ed in the regulations.
With the annual production of
bituminous coal, approximately 300,-
100000 tons or so per cent Of the
country's output, it Is expected that
the saving resulting from the plan
will amount to 100000 car miles.
This means that the same number
Of cars would make almost 800, 900
additional trips from the mines,
which would be equivalent to an in
crease in production of per cent.
Coal operators last winter complain
ed that production was reduced be-
cause they could not get cars to load
the output and few had storage ia
cilities.
The idea Of the plan is to have
coal consumed as near as possible
where it is mined, which is not the
general practice now. Products Of
different sections are sent long dis
tances in many instances largely be-
cause people of one section have been
accustomed to using a particular
product.

EXPENDITURES OF
ROADS LIMITED
Only Necessary Extensions
May Be Made Under
FL McAdoo's Order
NV Negotiated Press.l

Washington, March 22-The first
act of Director General McAdoo to-
day after President Wilson signed
the railroad bill, which provides a
$500, 900, 900 revolving fund and
prescribes a Basis of compensation to
the owners during federal operation,
was to issue an order restricting rail-
roads capital expenditures to extern
sion and betterments absolutely es-
sential UNDER war conditions. Inas-
much as the government. has now
undertaken largely the financing of
improvements and purchase of new
equipment, the order will serve as a
safeguard to the big working fund.
The signing Of the bill opens the
way for the railroad administration
to proceed with necessary extensions,
with the negotiation of agreements
on compensation, and with other
forms Of financial assistance to the
companies.
One OF the first results probably
will be the conclusion of an arrange
ment by which the government will
participate to some degree in the
meeting Of $4,000, 900 notes of the
New York. New Haven & Hartford
railway, due April Is. An announce
ment OF this subject may be made
this week.
Without waiting for the railroad
bill to pass the final stage of the
Presidents approval. Mr.. McAdoo
had created in the railroad admins
tration a division Of capital expendi-
lures, headed by Robert S. Lovett,
fromer director OF priority for the
war industries board, to supervise the
regulation OF additions and better
ments.

LATEST REGULATIONS
FOR FLOUR SUBSTITUTES
County Food Administrator Sharp
Urges strict Compliance
With Rules.

County Food Administrator Edgar
e, Sharp says that the regulations
concerning the cereals now permitted
to be sold as -four substitutes are be-
ing frightened up.
The substitutes allowed are only the
following specified cereals:
Corn meal, corn starch, corn -four,
rice, rice -four, barley -four, oatmeal.
rolled oats, buckwheat -four, potato
-four, and Feterita fiours and meals.
Such package breakfast foods as
tapiOca, corn flakes and other cereals
not specified in the above list cannot
lawfully be sold or used as substitutes
for wheat Hour.
Graham hour and whole wheat -four
cannot be used as substitutes, as they
are wheat products, but these two
fiours may be sold with only six
pounds OF substitutes to ten of their
own weight, while the wheat -four
requires an equal weight of substi-
tutes with each purchase.
Rye -four may still be bought alone
but may not be included as a substi-
tute for white -four.
The wheat situation is becoming
more critical; we are behind in our
promise OF shipment TO our soldiers
and allies, and they are on much
more restricted wheat ration than we
are. IL everyone follows periodically
the regulations provided by the food
administration, there will be enough
not, the regulations will probably be
made more strict and those who are
boarding more hour than they need
for 80 days will probably be called
upon to dispose Of it through the reg
ular channels. Food will win the war.

CONSCIENTIOUS DIRECTORS
IN MOUNTAINEERING

Washington, March 22.-President
Wilson today directed that conscien-
tious DIRECTORS drafted into the ma
tionai army, and who are unwilling
to accept non combatant service as
provided in the draft law, shall, in
extreme cases, be confined In dis
ciplinary barracks, but when they dc
not actually dis0bey a command
shall be held for whatever DISPOSE
ton the secretary of war may make
OF their caess.
Each such objector is to be given
the benefit Of a full explanation Of
the law by a ''tactful and consider
ate oficer' and so far as possible,
will be given the choice of wide
range OF activities including almost
everything except actual fighting.
In accordance. with the Presidents
order, the secretary of war will re-
wise sentences of courts-martial
heretofore held of persons who come
within the conscientious DIRECTORS
clause, and judgments at variance
with the order will be changed.
