ASKS DEFINITE HOG PRICE.
Agricultural Advisory Committee
Makes Report to Nh. hoover.

That farmers throughout the country
be guaranteed a minimum price of
$3.50 a hundred pounds for hogs during
the remainder Of the war is recommend
ed by the national agricultural advisory
committee in q report to Food Admins
traitor Hoover.
Though the food administration DOS
sesses no power to fix definite prices for
hogs or for corn, the report points out
that prices may be regulated to a great
extent through controlled orders for the
Army. Navy. allies and export trade.
In dealing with packers in respect to
the co-ordinated purchase of pork prod
ucts. the advisory committee recon-
mends that directions should II neces-
tsary inclrde a definite price basis in ad-
vance from month to month for packers
purchase Of hogs, upon which such or
ders will be based
The minimum price Of $3.50 a hun
dredweight. the committee believes,
would insure profitable price to the
producer and fair price to the con-
sumer.

ported Last September.

paFtment Of Agriculture in the United

crease over tho corresponding period for
lAst year Of 2sS per cont

ures represent the amount held by firms

the crew and passengers"
 Up to late. hour this evening tha war department had received the names of only 2S of the 2,043 Ameri- can soldiers now reported to have been rescued. The dispatch, upon which Secretary Baker issued the above statement, reached Washington earlier in the day, but required sev- eral hours for decoding.
 Neither the navy nor war depart ments up to late hour had any con- firmation of the report that convoy ing destroyers sank the U-boat that sent the Tuscania to the bottom.
 It was consistently reported, with out official confirmation, however, that on the day before the Tuscania was sunk an American merchant ship was tOrpedoed mad sent to the bottom al most exactly at the place where the transport was attacked. No lives were lost, it is understood.
 It was officially confirmed at the navy department this afternoon that the Tuscania was not only a British transport assigned to the transport of American forces, but that she was under the complete control and con- voy of British destroyers from the time she left Halifax until she reached the other side.
 Absense of fuller details was nerve racking to officials at the navy and war departments. Secretary of War Baker let it be known this afternoon that his first information came late yesterday afternoon in dispatch from General Pershing in France, who in turn, had received his information from London.

NO WHISKEY SHIPMENTS
 FROM MONROE, LOUISIANA

Advices were received in Texar- kama yesterday that the Wells Fargo Express company agent at Monroe, La., had been instructed to refuse to accept any consignments of whis- key for Texarkana. Practically all of the whiskey shipments for Texar- kama have been coming from Monroe since the company put an embargo on whiskey consignments for points in Texas.

SHORTAGE OF FUEL
 ARKANSAS SEEMS RIDICULOUs

There IS enough wood wasted in Arkansas every year to provide fuel to furnish every family in the state with enough to prevent the recur- renee of fuel famine.
 Of all the anomalous things that ever happened, fuel famine in Ar kansas is the most remarkable.
 There is only one other thing that can compare with it-and that is even an apparent shortage of food
 There are enough idle acres in Arkansas to feed the United States if intensively cultivated.
 Of course, the question of labor in- tervenes at this point, and this has become more acute on account of the large number of men that have been drafted and have volunteered for the military service.
 The fact remains, however, and it is recognized by our economists, that Arkansas has only skinned part of the cream off the rich surface of it's possibilities.
 It is ridiculous that any community in the state should complain of a shortage of fuel, when enough is ruthlessly wasted in clearing a field of new ground to provide the needs of an ordinary town for season.
 We have been too profligate with our resources, and it is we'll that something has come to call halt.
 The effect of these conservation movements will be felt more and more and it will last in many cases long after the war.
 There are a few salient facts of outstanding significance that must be emphasized by the leaders in Arkan- sas:
 We must cut out waste.
 We must raise enough at home to feed ourselves.
 We must make intelligent use of natural resources.
 We must substitute wood for other fuels wherever possible.
 We must stop depending on others for what we have ourselves.

SUPREME COURT DECISION
 AROUSES MUCH INTEREST

Little Rock, Feb. S.-No decision of the supreme court in many years has aroused so much interest as that in the Bone Dry case, which throws the state wide open for the importation of liquor in unlimited quantities and hand baggage "for personal use." It IS currently reported among those who profess to know that the price of bootleg whiskey has fallen in the last week from $10 to $6 quart. The officers say that there will be a great deal more bootlegging now, since it will be so much easier to get the li- quor into the state.
 There will probably be motion for a rehearing, and that there is argu- ment on both sides of the proposition IS apparent from the following dis senting opinion by Associate Justice Humphreys:
 "l do not differ from my colleagues on the canons for the construction of statutes, but differ from them as to the meaning of the statute in question under the rules of construction in- volved. The construction of the ma- jority made delivery the gist of the offense. Shipment into this state or transportation into this state is just as much the gist of an offense as de- livery. Each is clearly made an of fense under Section 1 of the statute. Three offenses are provided for in said section, to-wit: To ship into the state, to transport into the state, or to deliver in this state to any per son, firm or corporation within this state. It will be observed that the language is to ship or to transport into, or deliver to- This statement is the alternative, and each act should be construed as separate offense in order to give full effect to the statute.
 'As I read it, the only exemption provided for is the right to ship, trans port, or deliver wine for sacramental purposes, or alcohol for strictly medi- cinal purposes. A reading of the whole act convinces me that the legis- lature intended to pass bone dry law for the state of Arkansas, and I think the title of the act clearly imports the intention of the legislature to pass such law. I do not think my con- struction runs counter to any lan- guage used in the act. For the reas- ons expressed I register my dissent from the opinion of the majority"
