new WHEAT AND
MEAT PROGRAM
A New Government Order
Now In Effect.

A Washington dispatch dated
Jan. 26th, says:
The American people will 90
on a war bread diet Monday as a
part OF a war rationing system
prescribed tonight by President
Woodrow Wilson and the food
administration. Victory Bread"
the food administration calls it.
The reduced rations are asked for
the purpose of creating a larger
export surplus of food for the Eur
opean allies. Curtailment of con-
sumption will be accomplished
largely by voluntary effort but
force will be employed wherever
permitted under the food control
act.
President Wilson today issued
the following proclamation:
Many causes have contributed
to create the necessity for more
intensive effort on the part of our
people to save food in order that
we may supply our associates in
the war with the sustenance vital
Ay necessary to them in these days
of privation and stress. The re-
duced productivity of Europe be-
cause of the large diversion of
man-power to the war, the partial
failure of harvests and the elimi-
nation of the more distant mark
cts for food-stuffs through the de-
struction of shipping, places the
burden of their subsistence very
largely on our shoulders.
The food administration has
formulated suggestions which if
followed will enable us to meet
this great responsibility without
any real Inconvenience on our
part.
In order that we may reduce
our consumption of wheat and
wheat products by 80 per cent-a
reduction imperatively necessary
to provide the supply for over
seas-wholesalers, jobbers and re-
tailers should purchase and resell
to their customers only 70 per
cent of the amounts used in 1917.
All manufacturers of alimentary
pastes, biscuits, crackers, pastry
and breakfast cereals should re-
duce their purchases and con-
sumption of wheat and wheat
flour to 70 per cent of those of
last year or when buying bread,
should purchase mixed cereal
bread from the bakers.
To provide sufficient cereal
food, homes, public eating places,
dealers and manufacturers, should
substitute potatoes, vegetables,
corn, barley, oats and rice pro-

mans didn't leave Belgium cars
for her starving.

Many government officials here be-
lieve that Germany under any gov
ernment she may form out of the rev.
olution will come to the United States
setting forth the fact that the kaiser's
party was responsible for the war and
all the damage done during the war;
that the new German government had
nothing to do with it, and that the
German people as whole were op-
posed to the kaiser's war methods.
And they will ask upon those grounds
by Foch be reduced in the peace con-
that the peace punishment meted them
the decision as to conquered territory,
ference. They will agree to abide by
but will ask that reparation damages
be lowered, pointing out that the
peace conference will not be penaliz-
ing the kaiser or the military party
responsibley for the war, but the Ger
man people who have formed demo-
cratic government, a"srT ,.5
Financial interests fear an attempt
by the new German government to
cancel all debts due citizens Of other
countries.
Germany, it is believed here, will
change her form of communications
with other nations. No longer will
she assume her natural dictatorial
tone, but will appeal to sympathy, for
what she will term, "justice and mercy
to German peoples" who, their gov
ernment will point out, desire nothing
but food, work and chance to live.
They will insist that the Hohenzol-
lerns are now no part of Germany, and
that the people of Germany, starving
and poor, should not be asked to pay
for the damage done by the war party,
the leaders Of which, they point out,
have been forced to flee German soil.
The movement to split the former
German empire into several nations, it
is believed here, is but another plan to
shake off responsibility of paying. 1t
will be up to the peace conference to
apportion the peace penalties among
the various German nations, if they
are separated into independent states,
republics and monarchies.

The officials of the local board have provided a means for identi- flying those who claim exemption from military duty on the grounds of belonging to a neutral country. although having filed their declara. tion to become citizens. With the request of the registrant 50 desiring exemption it is necessary that form be made out stating why that per son is not in the military service, and to meet that condition the board has the following form to fill out. which states plainly the future ac- tion to be taken by the government when the recent debarment act be. comes operative. The form is as follows:
 This cettifies that it appears upon the records of this office that ...... ......, registrant within the juris- diction of this Local Board, Order No. ...., Serial No. ...., is sub ject of .................. who has declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States. In ac- cordance with the recent amendment to the Selective Service Law and .n- structions from the Provost Marshal General this Board has temporarily suspended the induction into military service of above named registrant until the President prescribes regula- tions putting into effect said Act of Congress whereby the relief from military service of neutral decla. rant will be conditioned upon his withdrawal of his intention to be- come a citizen of the United States, which will operate under said Act as a permanent bar to his ever be- coming a citizen of the United States.
