ITO Restaurants
Cited for Violating
Meatless S Days
Administration Inspectors
Make Tour of City's
Eating Places

Men and women inspectors of tho
Federal Food Board made an incognito
tour of city restaurants yesterday and
brought back the names of 40 places
which they said had violated the pork
less and becfess Tuesday.
They will be summoned before .the
board before the end Of the week to
explain their conduct. Some of them,
1t Is believed by officers Of the board
will be able to show that they served
no beef or pork yesterday, although
they used the stock menu cards which
offer meats
While this investigation was going
on rood Administrator Williams, at the
Food Board headquarters, was examin
ing twenty-five ticketcd and labelled
ham sandwiches and lecturing restau-
rant proprietors, who were accused of
selling them on Saturday, porklcss
day.
Ham Not Pork
The restaurants accused of breaking
the Saturday law included the Cafe
Boulevard, Forty-tirst Street and Broad
way; Gartner's, on Broadway, near
Thirty ninth Street; Murray's. at 3s
West Thirty-fourth Street; McGirr's
saloon. at Fortieth Street and Seventh
Avenue; the w. and G. lunch, at Ala
broadway; the White House lunch, at
$50 Broadway; Wolpin's Restaurant, at
All West Broadway; Muller's Cafe, at
AZ East Twenty-third Street; the Lane
Cafe, at Maiden Lane and Nassau
Street, and the Court lunch, at ITO
Court Street, Brooklyn.
Every one Of those named, Mr. Will
lams announced, admitted selling pork
on Saturday and promised not to re-
peat the offence. Some of the man.
ayers declared they were absent from
tEelr. premises and did not know pork
was being sold. Others declared they
did not know there was such a thing
as a porkless day.
And most of them tried to convince
Mr. Williams that ham was not pork.
Mr. Williams accepted their pledges
to observe the food regulations in fut-
ure and told them that if they Offended
again their sources of supply would be
cut off.
Both Saturday and yesterday the in
spectors had an awkward task. There
were seven of them--five men and two
women. They were instructed to ga
INTO all the restaurants they could and
glance over the menus In restaurants
that offered beef or pork they were to
order beef or pork. 1t was left to their
own dlscretion whether, after being
served, they would revoke the order or
eat it.
Kept Identity Secret
And above all they were instructed d
not to reveal their identity. it was
hardest, they said, in the restaurants
tnat were observing the rules. There
1t was an inspectors task to look at
the menu and then vanish silently to
avoid eating.
For these reasons the food Board ex-
poets that many of yesterdays 10 will
be able to clear themselves. In many
cases the inspectors considered the
menus sufficient to warrant reports al

Grain Shipments
Increase One-Half
Reserve in Western Elevators
Only One-Third Of
1917 Supply

WASHINGTON, March 5. = Reports
showing that nearly 80 per cent more
grain has been hauled to Western pri-
mary markets during the last three
weeks than in the CORRESPONDING period
fast year were made public to-day by
the Railroad Administration.
In spite Of this great movement, how
eyer, the reserve of grain in elevators
of Western primary markets is now
oriy one-third of that of one year ago.
This is attributed partly to the serious
interference with transportation in De-
cember and January and partly to
market conditions, which took wheat
from the elevators for milling earlier
ttis season.
In the three weeks between February
] and March 2, grain receipts at West
ern primary markets were 62,179,OOO
bushels. as compared with 42,l91 900
bushels in that period last year. More
than half. or 35,o7o, 900 bushels, were

Rotary Club Starts a New Movement

President William II. Brady, at the
Club Luncheon at the Hotel McAlpin,
requested the members to start secret
service bureau in their own Offices and
shops and to communicate the request
rs far as possible to every business
man in the city.
The movement is to form a small or
large group of employees in every place
of business to detect and report the
seditious actions of any co-worker.
There are in our midst many smooth
faced lying snakes of Teutonic inclina-
tions that will sting us whenever they
get chance. 1t is easier to detect
these criminals through everyday con-
TACT and casual conversation than by
professional service, which is so much
ovcrworked at this time. Every man
should be the center OF a secret service
bureau and report at once to the
proper authorities when he finds some
one tearing down our institution of
democracy instead of building it up.

Tremendous
[SicF Correspondence|

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The United
States shipped to the European Allies
between July /, 1914, and January I,
1918, sufficient food completely to ra-
tion 57,100,933 people on wellDal
anced diet, and provide further meat
ration for 22,194,570 men, according to
figures made public to-day by the food
administration.
Of the enormous quantities Of Amer
lean foodstuffs shipped abroad Great
Britain has been the recipient of the
greater percentage and Russia had re-
ceived the least. Shipments Of oats,
oleomargarine, corn, oil cake and meal
to France have exceeded those of all
other countries, while Italy has been
the largest recipient of corn oil and
syrup.
The total export of wheat ard wheat
flour to the three principal Allies is
equivalent to about 3S4 100000 bush
els, or an average of about 10000 900
bushels year.
Pork Exports Great
The pork exports for the three and
half years amounted to almost 2,0O0,
100000 pounds. This includes all pork
products bacon, hams. shoulders, lard,
neutral lard. fresh and picked pork.
The sugar exports to the three prin-
cipal Allies show a yearly average of
about 64800O, 900 pounds.
Grain and wheat maintained a steady
lead. The three and a half years eX-

United Kingdom received enough food
to furnish complete rations for 1884,.
Al people for one year. This would
supply rations for yearly average OF
almost 100000 people In addition to
this there was large excess of fats
and also an excess ofprotein.
France received sufficient food to fur
nish complete rations for about 15,000,-
600 people-a little more than one-half
the number supplied in England.
Italy received about one-fourtil as
much as went to complete
rations for about 7,250,000 men. All
three received material eXcesses of fats
and protein.
Russia's Share Negligible
The amount of food exported to Rus
sia is negligible compared with that
sent to the Western Allies.
The exports of fresh beef amounted
to 443.484. 400 pounds in the three and
half years. The butter exports to
the three principal Allies and Russia

The Ogre and the Optimist
An Editorial by a. w.

w HERE, ignorance is bliss tis folly to be
" patriotic!
The people of this country are ignorant of war
conditions existing not only on the other sde but
also here A man who knew whereof he spoke
declared in public speech the other night that
only 5 per cent of our people realize that we are
at war. Let us add that of that per cent only 3
per cent have Systematically set to work to make
themselves factor in the war.
That leaves 81 per cent of stay home population
inactivenot only drones, but also drugs the market
Why! Simply because they ignorant of conditions
they existbecause they swayed to enthusiasm by
each little zphyrrumor that suggests advantage in the
conflict because to the average mind just words
much less than word pctures and the pictures Of what
going have not been printed often enough vvidy
enough to make All impression.
In other words the United States Publicity Department
Of the World War writes with the stilted complexity of
Henry James instead of the crude nudity Of Tosto
Gorky
The people do not know what is happening Because the
men willing take of the big things and the people
ed to let do They have their little troubles These
look much larger to them than the affairs the all
nens and the affairs of the nation getting along perfectly
we'll without their interference
It's just ignorance of the truth breeding ignorance
