A 10000 ton ar1nored cruiser,
San Diego, was either torpedoed
or sunk by a mine about hun
dred miles east of New York; of
the crew of 1000 men, only 72
lost their lives. On Monday
morning another German sub
marine appeared off the coast
above New York and shelled and
sank three small barges. Des-
plte the utmost care, submarines
occasionally will get in their dirty

remains that our country has
sent 100000 troops to France
with only POI lost by submarine
attack! Truly a wonderful feat.

The government is about to
assume control of the entire med
ical profession in the United
States to obtain sufficient doctors
for the fast growing army, and
at the same time to distribute
those remaining to the localities
or services where they are most
needed for civilian work.
This mobilization is to be &C
conlplished either by enrolling
all doctors in a volunteer service
corps under pledge to accept
whatever service, military or
civilian, is assigned them by the
governing body of the corps, or,
if the voluntary plan is not sue.
cessful, by legislation providing
for drafting them into govern.
ment service.
Under this projected plan, the
army and navy would take those
physicians and surgeons best fit
ted for active duty, and who can
be spared from civilian require
ments. At the same time, the
government would maintain a
continuous survey of the country,
and assign doctors to those COM
unities in which there are too
few practitioners.
The practical operation, of1ic-
ials believe, would cause little of
this relocation, however, since
physicians who are needed in GER
tain communities, hospitals,
schools, or other essential civilian
services, would not be commiss
ioned in the army.
Of the $4,000 doctors in the
United States, it is estimated be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 are in
active practice, and $4,000 or a.
bout one-fourth are in the army
or navy. Nearly $4,000 will be
required eventually for the army.

During the next few months
when the most pressing of the
farm work is past, is the time
for our people to prepare against
a shortage of fuel next winter
We will have only ourselves to
blame if we are again caught in
the condition last winter found u.s.
A fuel shortage in the United
States is an absurdity. 1t is ut,
terly inexcusable. This is a
country of natural forests, and a
large part of those forests are
easily accessible for fuel. Thou
sands of towns have ample sup
plies of the very best freWood
within easy reach, and if these
communities next winter suffer
from a scarcity of fuel it will be
because of their own shiftless-
ness.
One thing is certain, our rail-
roads are now taxed to the ut
most of their carrying capacity,
and this condition will be inten.
sifed later in the season when
the crops begin to move. The
fuel administration has issued
fair warning, frankly telling the
people that the roads may not be
able to handle their coal orders
later in the season.
Every town and community in
the country that is dependent
upon an outside source for its
supply of fuel, should at once or.
game a wood club and lay in a
full supply of this fuel. This
will serve two ends-it will re-
move all danger of a fuel famine;
and it will conserve railway pow,
er that is now, and will continue
to be, urgently needed in the de-
mands of the government.
This is no false alarm. It is a
matter of vital concern to all,
and we will be recreant to our
duty to ourselves and to our gov
eminent if we neglect it.

AN item in the daily papers of
Monday stated that a German
soldier, who formerly was a bak.
er in New York, was captured
by the American forces a few
days ago. He was asked what
the German soldiers thought
about the Americans. Since
Thursday, the prisoner said, the
Germans had concluded that the
announcement that a million
Americans were in France was
false, and rumors among the
Germans on this front now was
that there are TEN MILLION
Americans in France!
That's the stuff. The Huns are
going to get such drubbing that
they'll think there are FIFTY
million Americans in Germany
before this war is over.

GLORIOUS WEEK.
The Past Week Featured By
Splendid Successes of Alli-
ed Troops Against Ger
man Hordes.


red to the profoundest depths by
the splendid successes of the
forces for right and justice dur
ing the past week.
On Monday morning, July 18TH
the Germans launched a big Of
fensive on a 65-mile front, with
Rheims as the direct objective.
Over 100000 of their best, or
shock, troops were used in this,
destined to be their supreme ef-
fort to break the Allied line and
reach Paris. The American for
ces numbering approximately
100000, held one end of this IS:
mile sector, and the French, with
10000 Italians, held the remand
err. The rush of the Germans
on the first day netted them moth
ing. The second day they made
small dents in the French lines,
here and there, and succeeded in
crossing the Marne river, which
was fordable at this point. By
Tuesday night it seemed to the
world at large that the splendid
city of Rheims would be captur-
ed by the Germans. But on
Wednesday the world was elect
ritied by the magnificent news
that the Allied reserve forces
had launched a counter offensive
north of where the Germans had
attacked, in an endeaver to re-
lieve the pressuresupon Rheims.
American, French and British re-
serves were used and they made
a wonderful sweep. And to date
not only has Rheims been reliev-
ed, but the Germans have been
forced back across the Marne,
and our forces have driven them
back to an average depth of ten
miles from their original post
ions: Over 500 big guns, besides
thousands of machine guns and
and other small arms, have been
captured, and to date $4,000 Ger
mans been made prisoners.
And so no wonder the Allied
world has experienced a week of
thrills. The news that each day
has come over the wires has
shown that our American troops
fought nobly, and the Huns have
paid dearly for forcing US into
this conflict. And they know
now that the Allies have a punch
that will later be found to be IT.

The sugar situation has be-
come extremely acute. This
states allotment for July was
| 4, 100000 pounds and the Raleigh
office upon totaling up the amount
of certificates issued, before
everybody had received their
certificates, finds that they have
already issued certificates in ex-
cess of seven million pounds.
This means that if the state has
consumed all the sugar certifi-
Gates for which have already
been issued, the excess will be
deducted from the August allot-
ment. 1t means further that our
people must commence now to
cut their sugar allowance from
three pounds per head per month
to II to 2 pounds per head per
month, if they would have any
sugar at all during August.
While the Food Administration
still wishes all food-stuffs to be
saved by canning and preserving,
they urge upon the people the
method of saving their fruits by
water-pack in which no sugar
! need be used.
1t becomes necessary in this
situation that the Food Admins
tration will look sharply after
any abuses of the 2 and 5 pound
rules. The merchants of the
county, before they could get any
certificates, had to sign up, be-
coming agencies of the govern
ment, for the enforcement of this
rule. So if you are reported by
a merchant or are regused sugar
by him, do not get mad with him.
! He is merely performing his
sworn duty in the premises.
The County Administration
does not anticipate any abuses in
this county but if there should
be any it is prepared to deal with
the situation without fear or
favor.
The County Administration
has been little too optimistic
about the flour from the new
crop OF wheat. We have receiv-
ed the following telegram:
"As crop not yet assured and
as present supply flour through
out country unusually small; also
because much flour from new
crop must be stored in order that
there will be no question about
supply for Allies and our troops
next year; also because if wheat
is exported from this country
rather than from distant markets,
many more ships will be avail
able for transport work; it would
be most unfortunate if country
obtained impression that little or
no conservation is necessary. In
fact event if bumper crop is har-
vested, substantial conservation
necessary in order create reserve
for our great offensive next year.
Therefore when those who have
signed pledge to use no wheat
are released, greatest care should
be used that pnblic understands
continued necessity for rigid
conservation, for reasons above
stated. On account of public ex-
preston Mr.. Hoover's views
would prefer your no wheat
