man OF the National War Labor Board.
gave out yesterday four and a half
pages OF closely typewriter propaganda
urging the election OF a Democratic
Congress in line with the appeal of
President Wilson. Attached to II was
the official card of Mr.. Walsh. carry
ing his title as chairman of the board.
Declaring in effect that vote for a
Republican for Congress would be a
vote for the reputation Of the Presi-
dents war policies Mr.. Walsh said:
"All who believe In them 1.-THE poii-
ciesJ will fight for a Democratic Con-
gress. All who have selfish interests
to serve in opposition to our country's
programme will work for the success OF
Republican candidates this fall. with the
consequent condemnation OF those poll
cies.
"a failure to elect a Democratic Con-
gress next month would bring on an
avalanche of German propaganda to
prove that the American peor's are
not behind the President and the ma
tional Administration"

Ship Bill Not n War Measure.

To this the Republicans Immediately
retorted with the statement that this
bill had nothing to do with troops, or
food, or ammunition, and was voted on
In the House ten months before war was
declared. Republican opposition, they
pointed out, was for two reasons-that
the bill was put through under an unfair
gag" rule and that II committed those
who voted for 1t to the policy OF Gov
eminent ownership. Not only that, but
1t appropriated $50, 900. 900, in those DAYS
great big appropriation.
"Offense No. g." cited by Mr.. Ferris.
was the revenue bill passed by the
House on July 10. 1916. This bill Mr..
Ferris described as "a preparedness
bill. bill to equip. feed and clothe an
army, and advocated by the President.
The roll was called: 1874 Democrats
voted for 1t. No Democrat voted against
1t; rs Republicans voted for II, and l3S
Republicans voted against Vt. Twenty
eight Republicans stood with the Presi-
dent l3S fought him. opposed him and
voted against the bill. They were sun
porting the President with a vengeance"
The Republican answer was that the
1915 revenue bill was not a measure 10
raise, feed and clothe an army and was
not a war measure at all, as 1t antedated
America entering the war by nine
months, and there was hardy any army
to feed and clothe at that time. In ad-
dition to this, Republicans referred to the
record OF the debates on the measure to
show that Republican opposition was
based on unwillingness to impose high
taxes without resorting to revision OF the
tariff when great deal OF the money
to be raised by the bill was to defray
deficiencies caused through operation OF
the Underwood Simmons tarifr act.
Republicans called attention to the fact
that at the time this bill was before
Congress the minority called 1t "the
Democrat deficiency revenue bill"
The fourth Offence" charged to Re-
pubilcans by Mr.. Ferris is opposition 10

Republican Support Which

Special Despatch TO TUE suS.

WARRINGTON, Oct. 2e.-The question
CT which party had given the better
support to the President was brought
down to brass tacks to-day through the
issuance of a carefully prepared state
ment by Chairman Ferris of the Demo-
cratic Congressional Campaign Commit
tee reviewing the action by the two par
ties in Congress on ten measures desig-
mated by him as war measures. The
Ferris statement was intended, II was
admitted by Democrats. to be such a
broadside as would blow the Republican
claim Of greater support out of the
water.
Mr. Ferris enumeratee the ten meas
ures and the Congressional action on
them as "Offence No, l." Offence No.
g." and so on. The selective draft act
and the bill to increase the pay Of SOL
diers from SIS to $40 a month, which
were carried only through Republican
efforts, and in fact Republican leader
ship. were omitted in the Ferris state
ment fact to which the Republicans
Immediately called attention.
"Offense No. /" in the list made out
by Mr.. Ferris was the McLemore resolu-
tion calling on the President TO warn
Americans against travelling OH the
armed ships of belligerent nations. This,
Mr.. Ferris SAID, was the very acld test

sardine Shortage Expected.

Shortage of sardines this spring is
expected to result from the severity
of the past winter. Storms and great
masses of floating ice have destroyed
hundreds of sardine weirs, according
to Henry S. Culver, United States con-
sui at New Brunswick, who says in a
commerce report that even the weirs
not wholly destroyed are so badly dam
aged that it may not be possible to
use them this spring.
There will be practically no catch
of sardines this spring on the New
Brunswick coast. The weirs may moi
be in condition for use until summer
and the catch for the year will prob
ably be smaller than in any recent
years. The past winter is said to have
been the most severe the New Bruins
wick country has seen in 40 years.

Mrs. G. G. Olmstead, residing near
Evansville, Ind, is the originator of
the "Hoover pie" and her success was
such that many Of the other women
of the neighborhOod are introducing
the pie to their families. Not hit of
lard or particle of wheat flour is
used in making the pie. The pie is
made by beating three eggs well with
half cupful Of sugar and half cup
full of graham flour. A little salt and
some favoring are added. The mix
ture is then stirred into pint of milk
and the pie is ready for the oven. No
crusts are made. The mixture is
poured into well-greased pan and
baked. The graham flour in the mix
ture forms lower crust and when
the pan Is removed from the oven it
contains custard pie which carries

creased with any kind Of meat grease

Pig Skins, Now Wasted, Good
For Shoes, Finest SaddIery,
And Fancy Leather Articles

There has been an enormous de-
crease in cattle and hogs in the United
States and elsewhere. There are A.
100000 fewer hogs in this country than
there were year ago. Hogs play a
most important part in the present
crisis The lcsSes from cholera have
been enormous, and the government is
sending hog cholera experts into the
states to help in the work of cholera
control.
There is one source of loss that
should be considered. and 1t does not
pertain to disease, writes George H
Glover of the Colorado Agricultural
college. Leather is scarce, and in the
countries that have been the longest in
war, the scarcity of leather Is possibly
causing the most concern. Pig skins
are wasted and they make the tinest
