FOOD ADMINISTRATION NOTES

A recentSbulletin sent out by the
Federal Food Administration fol
Nevada states that the rumors and
newspaper reports to the effect that
wheat regulations were to be less
stringent are fatty contradicted by
direct wire from Herbert Hoover.
The situation regarding wheat is
more serious than it has ever been,
and only the most rigid economy
will allow shipment of minimum
wheat requirements to our soldiers
and the Allies.
Beginning June l, housewives are
no longer required to sign wheat and
sugar cards when purchasing bread,
-four, or sugar. However. they
positively must not exceed the allow
ance of six pounds of wheat flour
products per month, nor may they
buy wheat flour without purchasing
an equal amount of substitutes.
The Federal Food Administration,
in the last analysis. must depend for
enforcement of it's regulations on
the honor and patriotism of the peo-
pie. Grocers in all cases should
bring the strictness of these rulings
to the attention of customers, re-
porting to the Federal Food Admin
istrator any attempts at boarding,
misuse of foodstuffs. or evasion of
restrictions.
No New Potatoes Until After June 20
In order that the surplus stock of
old Nevada potatoes may be used up
as much as possible, the California
Food Administration has been re-
quested to prohibit shipment of new
potatoes to Nevada until after June
10th. In view of the present world
food shortage. it is imperative that
the surplus old potatoes be used up
before consumption of the new crop
commences. OLD POTATOES ARE
VICTORY SPUDS.' EAT THEM
UNTIL AFTER JUNE TWENTI-
ETH!

WHICH WAY SHALL WE TAKEf

There are but two ways out Oh
the war. One is humiliation. retreat
and slavery. for it would be slavery.
The people of Russia have found out
what 1t means to yield to Germany.
The people of Ukraine are finding
out to-day what it means to yield to
Germany. If we retreat, if we sur
render, we will learn what it means
to become a people subject to the
arrogant and brutal power of Prus-
STA.
1.-The other way out is by employ
ing the power of the manhood of this
100. 600. 900 people; by the unstinted
use of the wealth we have been pill
ing up in our security for a century
and almost a half; by the exercise Of
that Individual strength and morale
which has been brought to maturit,
by generations of life and freedom

THE LATEST NEWS

The following wal news was re-

Allies. Do not expect any counter

do not look for any offensive by the
Allies before August.
Berlin papers assure the German
people that victory will come. but
will be very slow. and the German
people should arm themselves with
patience.
German submarines off the coast
of New York Thursday sunk the
British steamship Harpathian. There
was no loss of life.

mans attacked in Flanders by way
of diversion. They assaulted the
Anglo French positions to the south
west of Ypres on a front of four or
five miles and kept up the battle
throughout the day. On Tuesday
the French and British counter-at-
tackled and regained practically all
the ground that had been taken.
The other battle was a surprise to
the Germans. At the little town OF
Cantigny northwest of Montdidier.
they had established themselves in a
commanding position toward the
close of the Picardy drive. 1t was
Just at the nose of the salient and 1t
was in this sector that the American
army took over a small front some
time in April. The Huns had at
tackled the Yankees from Cantigny
on several occasions. but had made
no progress. About ten days ago
they began to food the American
sector with deadly gases and to har-
ass our men in other ways. Suddenly
on the morning of May %. after a
brief but exceptionally heavy bonn
bardment, the Americans attacked
on a front of a mile and a half.
With the sureness and precision of
veterans they carried out the assault
to complete success, winning the
town of Cantigny and its environs in
two hours and forty-fve minutes.
They captured 200 prisoners and
killed and wounded many of the
enemy.
The Germans have been counter
attacking every day since their de-
feat, but have not budged the Yankee
line. Instead they have lost heavily
and the Americans have now taker
nearly 300 prisoners.
