GARY FOOD
DIRECTOR
STANDS PAT

In order to assist the local food ad-
nntnistrator in making known the new
federal food regulations. the Gary
newspapers have kindly offered the col
umns OF their papers TO give as wide
publicity to this matter as possible.
These articles signed by r. c. Parry.
federal food administrator for Gary.
Will appear from day TO day. Watch
the columns of your papers. ond if you
do not read a Gary paper subscribe at
once for one and keep in touch with the
food administrators rules. They are
official and for your guidance.
If you are reading the Chicago papers
and following the rules as promulgated
by the Illinois food. administration and
interpretations of various wholesalers
and jobbers you are getting misinform-
alton which may result in the revoca-
ton OF your license and in closing Of
your doors.
Remember that GARY is IN Indiana and
not IN Chicago. We are still governed
by Indiana laws and not Illinois Watch

tstrator. Take nothing for granted what

conserve IS wheat and meat. sugar and
fats and It is on these foods that the
government is laying special stress.
Cary has shown it's loyalty in every
campaign that has been waged to win
the war. We have gone over tho top
IN the Liberty Loan. Y. NJ. c. \. and
Red Cross campaigns and now we are
going to do our share and possibly even
more, in food conservation.
In the short time the local food Cd
ministrator has been in office there has
been every tendency to observe the
food regulations. Shere have been vio-
lations. but 1t has been more through
lack Of knowledge than disloyalty
With wide publicity given to all the
government regulations will be observ-
ed by all. r. q. PARRY.

you read In Chicago papers.
Chicago is making plaything OF
Lake county cities and this must stop
at once. Evidence IS at hand that
statesmen from Chicago wholesale
houses are visiting Gary and are offer
ing to make sales of sugar and flour
with other food combinations. This
must stop at once and the state food
administration wants to be OF service
TO the people Of Gary. The govern
ment has laid down certain rules to be
observed in conservation OF food. The
situation has become critical. There is
simply not enough food in Europe. yet
the soldiers of the allies must be main
tanned in full strength. their wives at
home must not face famine. the friendly
neutrals must not be starved. and. fin
ally. our own army must never lack a
needed ounce of food.
While we are living in plenty. there
are today thousands of allies who are
starving for want Of food. We do
not need TO star our own people. We
have plainly for ourselves. and it is the
policy of the food administration TO re-
tain for our people a sufficient supply
Of every essential food stuff.
The whole great problem Of winning
the war rests. primarily on ono thing
the loyalty and sacrifice of the Ameri-
can people in the matter Of food. It
is not government responsibility. It is
the responsibility Of each individual.
Each pound of food saved is a pound
given to the support Of our army. Each
pound wasted or eaten unnecessarily IS
n pound withheld from them. 1t is our
own personal obligation and we must
meet it square in the face.

ent time and those in which we must

4 GREAT FARM YEAR.

October averaged mid and warm and
was ideal as 10 weather conditions for
maturing the corn crop While not So large
as the great yield Of last year the corn
crop OF 1918 is above the fve-ycar aver
age and the quality is ten per cent better
than that OF last years yield The No
vember estimate of the Agricultural De
partment shows that almost every stand
ard food crop Is above the iye-year
average This IS 50 not only as 10 the
grains but rs 10 such staple foods as
white and sweet potatoes, onions, beans
cabbages, apples, sugar beets and sugar
cane.
The suggestion conveyed the Nov
ember report Is that there is an Immense
aggregated TODD surplusage in tie eoun
try. 1t is fortunate Tor war devasted
Europe and Asia that there will be 4
surplus which may be moved across
between now and next July. Chairman
Hurley Of the Shipping Board. promises
that the ships will be available to move
the food surplus across the Atlantic
If the armlstlce conditions shall be soon

Great Work Quickly Done.

The news that the Germans had signed
the armistice submitted by the Allies
and Marshal Foch WAS cabled from Paris
to Secretary of State Lansing at Washing
ton early Monday morning. The secre-
tary announced the contents of his cable
message to the Associated Press repre-
sentative in Washington Mt 245 a. m,
Monday, and the news was instantly put
on the wire circuit of that agency and
in one minute it had been flashed to all
parts of the United States.
Through the prompt and reliable ser
vice of the Associated Press, Seattle had
the news of victory as early as the mayor
of Washington had been told of it, while
the people in the easternmost points in
Maine or the southern points of Florida
knew that the German Empire had been

This wonderful agency, with its mighty
network of wires, awaited patiently.
swake and alert every moment, for three
days for the most thrilling bit of news in
the worlds history, and when II reached
this country, spread it throughout the
great continent in a minute.

by several minutes, but carried with the
announcement the assurance that il was

The paper had nearly all of the news
services in the country, including the
United Press and o. o or three other minor
news gathering concerns, but in an un-
guarded moment the news editor gave
way 10 the lure Of so big piece of news
as the reported end of war as sent out by
the United Press. last week Needless TO
say, the paper found itself in "a difficult,
lpologetic position, and SINCE that time

Now that William Hohenzollern IS

hoped that the Allies will make reqalsI-

many charges brought against them.

Germany in Revolution,

Enough has already transpircd in
Germany, since the signing of the ar
mistice, Monday morning, TO indicate
that trouhlous times are ahead Rcvolu-
ton has broken out, and the Council of
Soldiers and Workmen, largely similar
to that which started revolutionary nc
tons in Russia after the deposition Of
the Car, seems to be obtaining control
Of the large centres of population Also,
it has secured possession of consider
able part Of the heretofore moribund
German navy, and of the navnl base Mt
Helgoland
Only the fact that German Socialists,
who are allied with the Council of Soldiers
and Workmcn, are of different breed
from the wrctchcs who have brought
such disaster upon Russia, affords any
hope of future for Germany that will
prove assuring to her people. Ii is not
believed they will adopt the reign of terror
that has shed SO much innocent blood in
Russia and brought that country 10 the
very verge of ruin
That much turbulence will prevail in
Europe for awhile is certain, but now that
the war is practically over, and the armed
forces of the Allies arc available for ef-
fcctivo police work, IT is not likely IL will
achieve tho extent or do the vile work
anywhere that il has done in Russia The
forces of the Allies will bend their
energies to preserving order, and to af-
ford fair opportunity for the people of
various countries now In revolt against
hereditary dynasties to establish peaceful
and stable governments
