FOOD ADMINISTRATORS
WARNS OF SWINDLERS
Bogus Agents OF The Bureau Have
Been Collecting ~Fines- Through
out The State

That swindlers have been repre-
senting themselves as agents of the
United States Food Administration and
collecting fines from householders,
boarding house keepers, millers and
others for supposed violations of the
food regulations has come TO the at
tention of William n Maltbie, acting
Food Administrator for Maryland.
Annapolitans are warned not TO pay
penalties TO anyone except the United
States Food Administrator for Mary
land or the Food Administrator for
each county. The Administrator for
the State and those for the counties
are the only persons who have au-
thority to collect penalties.
The Food Administration asks that
anyone representing himself as 8
representative of the Food Admins
traitor and attempting TO collect penal
ties be arrested and announces that
the Food Administration will assist in
the prosecution of such swindlers.

PLANS TO START WITH
TWENTY MILLION RAISED
This Is The Desire OF Former
Governor Goldsborough In
The Next Loan Drive
OPENS ONE MONTH HENCE

To start the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign one month from today with
$40, 900 900 already subscribed is the
desire of Chairman P. L. Goldsbor-
ough If the total issue be $4,000
600 900, Maryland's quota viii prob
ably be $50 900, 900, or just about dou-
Bile what it has ever been before. To
raise this amount will mean a big
task. That it can be done no one
doubts. That the drive in Maryland
viii get away to a rafting good start
seems probable and Chairman Colds
borough's desire may see fruition
even before the next 80 days elapse.
Already there was tangible evidence.
Yesterday Chairman Goldsbor-
ough had a conference in Washing
ton with Loan Director Lewis p.
Franklin and asked the attitude of
the loan officials concerning the al
lotment idea of subscriptions. where
by each person is told the amount he
or she is expected TO subscribe. Mr..
Franklin told Chairman Goldsbor-
ough that the matter would be left to
=
committee has discussed the matter
and has it under consideration. No
action has as yet been taken. The
executive committee will meet in
few days.
One big source of qualification IS
the large number of offers of service
daily being received. Within the last
few days more than 100 letters have
come to Chairman Goldsborough
from organizations. corporatins, firms
and invidivuals asking to be allowed
to do their bit.
AS an effective means of keeping
in touch with the 23 counties of the
State, each county chairman will be
asked to meet the above committees
on one day each week.

THE ~RAGs, AREN'T EVERYTHING

One raw-boned soldier. an habitual
misbehaver, was taken to Camp Dix,
n. j., from another camp under guard
some days ago. He had a beard an
inch long and tried to borrow a razor
from a Y. NJ. c. A. man The latter
first engaged him in conversation and
learned that the man hated religious
affairs" The ''Y' worker refused to
lend him the razor until he had ex-
tracted a promise that the soldier
would attend the first religious meet
ing he could in the nearby Association
hut. He then loaned the prisoner his
razor and the next day got an extra
one which he gave the man. A week
later he discovered the penitent in the
"" hut busy playing every hymn rec
ord he could find on the phonograph
The rags aren't anything" he ex-
planned.

FAMOUS FOOTBALL
MAN GOING TO FRANCE

Princeton's best known football star
found glory and death with the British
Black Watch two years ago on the bat
tlefelds of France-Johnny Poe, prob
ably the most famous football captain
this country has ever known. Now
Thomas G. Trenchard, known as
Doggy" Trenchard, the man who fol-
lowed Poe as captain of Princetons
eleven and whose fame in the athletic
and sporting world nearly equaled that
of Poe, is going to France. Not as a
fighter, however, for he was turned
down when he sought to join our uni
formed forces, but as a physical di-
rector and as an associate secretary
for the National War Work Council of
the Y. M. G. A.
Mr.. Trenchard was captain of
Princeton's football team for two years
and during that time was regarded as
one of the country's greatest stars of
the pigskin. After his university days
he acted for a time as football coach
for the University of North Carolina
and later went into the lumber manu-
featuring business there when he vol
unteered to go abroad as "Y' work
er. Mr.. Trenchard was born in
Churchill, Md, but has lived most of
the time since his Princeton days in
the South
The overseas personnel board of the
National War Work Council snapped
Mr.. Trenchard up as soon as they
learned he wished to go to France to
do what he could to help our forces
there. Mr.. Trenchard has been an ac-
tive church and Sunday School worker
just the sort of man wanted for over
seas service. He is now taking the
four weeks training course which all
''Y" athletic directors must take be-
fore leaving for France.
John Hillyear, of New York City,
physical educator known throughout
the country in his special field, recent
ly went to France as Red Triangle
athletic director. He is regarded as
one of the authorities in the United
States on group games for children
and youths. For fourteen years he
has filed the position of physical di-
rector in Curtis High School, Staten
Island. When he left he was accomp-
anied by John W. Price. a member of
the big choir of the Cathedral of st.
John the Divine, New York City, who
has long been interested in athletics
and volunteered for that feature of
w work among American fighters in
France.

DOMINANT POSITION
OF FORD CARS

In receiving evidence on behalf of
the automobile dealers in relation with
war revenue taxation, the Ways and
Means Committee of the House of
Representatives had submitted be-
fore it information which when sub
jected to analysis by the Ford dealer
and connected with Ford business, dis
closes the dominant position of the
Ford car in singularly decisive man
ner.
1t was brought out at one of the
hearings that, from the best figures
obtainable, there were in the United
States on January IS, 1918, 5,003, 1872
automobiles. 1t was also pointed out
that of this number, about half-or
2,340,549 machines-were cars sold at
less than $500. The above figures
were taken from actual registrations
of motor vehicles in all States, includ-
ing passenger and commercial cars.
Consideration of Ford production
discloses that there have been manu-
featured in this country a tremendous
number of Ford machines, number
well over 100000 and rather close to
100000 Taking into consideration
that a certain percentage of the total
production of nearly 100000 Fords
is not now operating through age or
other reasons, we are forced to the
conclusion that in the field of cars less
than $500, the Ford stands virtually
alone, predominant and unequalIed.
When il is realized that this field
or takes in one-half of all
the machines in the United States, we
are confronted with evidence that
points to the fact that one-half, APP
proximately, of the automobiles in this
country are Fords.
This analysis, based upon authentic
figures, carries testimonial of effici-
ency, reliability and economy, of a
product that is I'M
equalled in the annals of American in
dustrial and manufacturing history.

CURTAILING LUXURY
RELIEVES LABOR

Cnrtailment of nonwar production is
beginning to have preceptible effect in
tightening the general labor situation,
particularly in certain of the skilled
trades
Proof of this is found in the national
labor survey of the United States EN-
ployment Service for the week ended
August 10 Reports from Kokomo,
Ind. in particular show that a S1imin-
ished output of pleasure automobiles
is releasing a number of mechanics
who, through the United States En-
ployment Service, are rapidly finding
new positions in war work. Similar
reports from other sections show that
conservation of manpower resources,
as well as of fuel and material, is be-
ing gained by reduction in the output
of so-called nonessentials.
Nevertheless, the general skilled
labor shortage is shown by the survey
to be nearly as serious as that of
common labor. In no section of the
country does there seem to be any no
ticeable surplus of machinists, boiler
makers, and molders. The dangerous
shortage in these trades in important
industrial centers can only be relieved
by transfers from local nonwar indus
tries.
The commentator situation eontin-
ues critical, 1872 cities out of 2S2 re-
porting in the latest survey showing
shortage Surplus is found in S5 cities
and balanced conditions of supply and
demand in the remaining 65. What
local surplus there is is found mostly
in the Southwestern States.

BRAVERY ACHIEVED
BY THE DEVIL DOGS

When the first call to war came in
the United States in 1917, the men
who hurried forward to enlist were
called heroes" Naturally the name
was applied simply because of the
pride that nation takes in the man
who hastens to volunteer. However,
one instance has just come to light,
testifying to the fact that these voiun-
teers were heroes in action as well as
intent. For instance:
Recently a list of seventy-six United
States Marines was sent into Marine
Corps Headquarters, specifying var
ious acts of bravery achieved by the
Devil Dogs in the capture of Boures-
ches. 1t was one of many such lists
which are constantly coming across
the ocean. And out of that list of
seventy-six heroes, sixty-three were
found to have enlisted within three
months after war was declared.
