ATLANTA. Ga. April 12.-An order
has been issued today by DR.. Andrew
M. Soule, federal food administrator
for Georgia, fixing the retail sale
price of sugar at 8 cents instead of TO-
The necessity for conservation IS
just as great as ever it was and this
lowering of the cost to the consume
by the food administration is not to
to be taken at all as an indication of
an ineXhaustable supply. The whole
sale prices have been reduced by the
retiners and, following the policy of
the administration, retail dealers must
keep in line. The fixed reasonable
profit permitted to be made by the
dealer is net of one cent per pound.
He therefore makes the same profit on
! cents per pound sales under the
new wholesale prices he heretofore
made on 10 cents per pound sales.
To the consumers of Georgia the or
der of the food administration means
a straight saving in money of $780,
900 year on this one item of family
use by the small reduction of one cent
There are three million people in the
state. The consumption of sugar is 8
pounds per person per month or SO
pounds per year On 100000 pounds
total consumption per month in Geor-

could only see the final chapters of
some of these affairs, they would
hesitate long time before taking
the step toward violence.
Some years ago l was in Pisa, the
Italian city famous for it's leaning
tower. An American couple in the
same hotel spoke to me in the
lobby and asked if l would sit at
their table. l didn't know them,
or anything about them, and their
only excuse was that we all spoke
English. l don't remember whether
they called themselves Smith, Jones
or Robinson; it doesn't matter. They
spent all their time asking questions
like, Are there many changes in
Forty-second street? We hear the
theaters have all moved uptown"
Living in the heart of a wonder
full old medieval town, their most
treasured collection was a bundle
of American postcards that fellow
travellers whom they had met in
Pisa had sent back to them.
They seemed famished for talk
commonplace talk about restaur-
ants, shops, hats, fashions, any,
thing on earth but about the coun-
try where they told me they had
lived for ten years.
l wondered continually why, when
they craved for Broadway, they con-
tinued to stop in Pisa; then, one day.
came the explanation. The woman
lent me book; on the fly leaf was a
name with which the readers of
newspapers were familiar ten years
back; both had families, from which
they had eloped.

South Bend, Ind, June IL
America in 1920 will have a mer-

weight tons, Chairman Hurley, of the
shipping board. declared here last
night in an address giving the most

shipbuilding program which has yet

to the graduates of Notre Dame Uni
versity.
This great commerce fleet, Mr..
Hurley said, the largest ever as
sembled in the history of the world,
and involving the expenditure of
more than $4,000, 100000 will link
the United States to South and Cen
trail America by weekly steamer
service which will enable the Latin
American countries to utilize their
unlimited natural resources in the
freest competition with other ma
tions. It also will bridge the Pacific
for the transportation of the prod
ucts of Japan, Russia, China, Austria
liza and the Orient, and will continue
to promote Americas trade with
Europe.

Nothing Doing
No use my trying to continue
writing about flying experiences now.
Just came back from Chalons and
Putnam and L sure had some time.
He tried on uniform he had or
dered and ordered two for myself.
Then, both of US being hungry for
bonbons we began still hunt for
these scarce sweets. First store we
tried had nothing like that, but Put
man acquired some olives while l
tried for sweet pickles. Nothing do
ing in the sweet pickle line! 30 we
tried again.
That second store was some store
l can't think of anything they did
not have, and the bright-eyed French
damsel who attended us was a clever
little saleswoman. or course Put
man did the talking, but l caught
the drift, and soon she was showing
US SO "a pound candy-and we were
falling. At 1east Putnam was, he
having more money than l. l fell Z
francs worth, but that was some
candy, ana the girl, with gestures OF
eyelashes, eyes and expression as
only French girl can put over,
picked up one kind of bonbon and
laughingly remarked it was "reau de

thereby, wanted a pound, along with
some other kinds-what did we care
for expenses! This is war, and one
never knows how long his life may
last-so let appetite be unrestraineu.
Our 'gourmand" shopping being fin
ished, we decided to visit q hospital
where we heard some American
nurses were working. The first hos
pital we tried was wrong, but the
second was the right, although, as
luck would have it, the only Amei1-
can girl working there was out. So
Putnam wrote a note to be delivered
and we walked sadly away. AS we
walked down the drive on the way
out, two girls passed us, one being
rather pretty, and we wondered at
the time if one might not be the
American we had come to see. How
ever, we didn't speak, but we had not
gone far down the road when who
should we see come down the road,
perched high on cab, but the self
same girl we had passed in the hos
pital. She sure was a cute little
trick, and was so glad to see two
Americans she jumped clear to the
ground without touching the step.
Being introduced, as Putnam knew
her, she confidentially told us that
when We passed her in the hospital
she had remarked to her comrade
that we didn't look like Frenchmen,
and were good-looking enough to be
Americans. Get the good-looking!
(And l was one of those referred to.)
We walked back to the hospital with
her then, chatting as we went, and
