INFLUENZA SITUATION
IN VICINITY OF LEVY

Levy, N. NJ, Dec. 3.-The influenza
situation in this vicinity is not inn
proving. Several new cases have been
reported, and one family has every
member down with the disease. There
have been several deaths at Wagon
Mound in the past week. Dr. Ghorm-
ley of Colmor, who has charge OF
this territory, has taken up his resid-
ence in Wagon Mound and will re-
main until the arrival of DR.. Gibbs
the former resident physician, who
was called to the service. 1t is said
the conditions in the town are SO
serious that the citizens took steps
to have DR.. Gibbs recalled and that
he is expected in two or three weeks.
There is said to be hardly family
in the Mexican settlement which
has not had one or more cases of
the disease.
The recent eight-inch snow should
have tendency to check the spread
of the malady.

WHICH STATE HAS NOT

State Chairman Hallett Reynolds,
Of the New Mexico War Savings
Committee. has sent a personal let
ter to every bank and large business
concern in this state urging the use
of War Savings Stamps in Christ
mas giving. The letter, which is a
general appeal for activity in War
Savings Stamp sales from now until
the end of the year, follows:
"The cash sales in War Savings
Stamps to date for New Mexico are
but one million seven hundred
thousand dollars, out OF total quota
Of seven million dollars.
Il wish particularly at this time
TO appeal not only to your pride
in our state, but to your national
patriotism as we'll, to assist in every
way possible in augmenting these
cash sales. believe one of the best
means of increasing sales will De
found in giving the usual Christmas
gratuities in War Savings Stamps
rather than in cash, and to that end
| am requesting all of the large cor
porate and private business interests
in the state to undertake that method
Of Christmas distribution. Will you
he kind enough not only to inaugur-
Ate this plan in your own business,
but to request your patrons Of larger
means to follow it out also.
"Our state has made its full quota
Of funds in other forms of war work,
and believe that a conscientious et-
fort on the part of the business men
n this state will show a very sat
;factory result in the National War
Savings campaign. While it is true
that the war is virtually over, the
expense of maintaining our army
will be but slightly diminished and
tremendous budget of expenses
must be provided for during at least
the next twelve months.
Il bespeak YOUR earnest Cooper
alton and wish to thank you for the
assistance l know you both can and
will give this patriotic matter"
In this connection, Mr.. Reynolds
has issued statement showing the
sales of War Savings Stamps in each
county to November lst, and the per-
centage in each county to the coun-
ty's total quota. The statement fol-

SUGAR RESTRICTIONS FOR
HOME USE ARE NOW OFF

Albuquerque, Dec. All sugar IL
mutations, both for households and
public eating places are removed, the
New Mexico Federal Food Admins
tration officials were advised by
wire this morning.
Sugar may now be purchased for
household use without restriction.
General orders Nos. eight and nine
of the war program for public eat
ing places are rescinded and sugar
as needed may now be bought and
used.
This does not remove all Food
Administration control of sugar,
however. The coming system remains
in force. Manufacturers are res
tricted to . thirty day supply and
refiners are not permitted to sell
more than . thirty day supply to
manufacturers until the new Cuban
and Porto Rico sugars begin arriv-
ing in quantities.
Dne to the better production Of
sugar this year in nearly every i'm
portant sugar producing country, the
restrictions on household use Of
sugar are removed.
THE pressing demand for food is
obvious" cables Herbert Hoover
after one week in Europe. "But the
situation does not yet admit the for
mutation of definite program. Ne
gotiations with allied governments
regarding shipping. finances. and or
ganization are still in progress.
Liberated territories are daily and
urgently calling upon the United
States for food. Pending the deter
mination of complete program, the
purchase and dispatch of two hun
dred and seventy thousand tons Of
food was arranged to meet the mos.
urgent calls. Tine first of the ships
carrying this food is reported as
having passed Gibraltar for south
