Corporation Commission In
 Receipt of Instructions from war Industries Board
 of Most Drastic Import

No unnecessary construction, no use less building, no forming of industrial companies that do not aid the govern ment in the prosecution of the war, no use of capital, labor or materials that do not directly or indirectly help the country at this time in the winning of the war.
 1 These are part of the instructions received yesterday by the corporation commission from the War Industries Board in Washington with directions to make them as public as possible that the people may become thoroughly familiar with the wishes of the board and not attempt to run counter to the board practice which will bring grief to such parties, the board plainly de- | clares.
 The instructions from the War h. dustrieS Board,' said F. A. Jones, chairman of the corporation commis- sion, yesterday, "set forth the neces- sity for the limitation of capital ex- tpenditures for either public or private undertakings not essential to and not contributing either directly or indi- rectly toward the winning of the war
 'The corportion commission added MT. Jones, "is going to ask the peo- pie to act heartily and wholly in ac- cord with the instructions of the war board so that an order from the cor poration commission will be unneces- sary,"
 The resolution of the war industries board received yesterday by the cor poration commission is as follows:
 Whereas, it has come to the notice of this Board that new industrial cor porations are being organized in diff of hn cd q for the erection of industrial plants which cannot be utilized in the prose- cution of the war, and
 Whereas, plans are being. consid- l. cred by certain states, counties, cities and towns for the construction of pub lie buildings and other improvements
 which will not contribute toward win ming the war, and
 Whereas, the carrying forward of
 these activities will involve the utiliZa- l. , tion of labor, materials and capital ur-
 gently required for war purposes,
 "Now, therefore, be taresolved, by the War Industries Board, that in the
 public interest, all new undertakings , not essential to and not contributing either directly or indirectly toward winning the war which involve the , utilization of labor, materials and capi- i tai required in the production, supply
 or distribution of direct or indirect wal , needs will be discouraged, notwith- : standing they may be of local import f ance and of character which should in normal times meet with every en. x coura cement.
 o Be is further resolved, that in fair.
 ness to those interested herein, notic' f is hereby given that this board vii
 withhold from such projects prior n ity assistance, without which new con . struction of the character mentione,
 will frequently be found impracticable , and that this notice shall be given wid l, publicity that all parties interested il $ such undertakings may be fully ap |, praised of the difficulties and delay !, to which they will be subjected, anC embark upon them at their peril. = fThe War Board requests you
 hearty cooperation in the interests O i the people of the United States"
