GIVES PRO.GERMAN
Brewers DRUBBING
Anti-Saloon Lacquer Urges Strong
Action to Be Taken.

More power to Mr.. Palmer in
seizing alien enemy property. AS
this goes on. the pro-German
breweries in this country which
furnish funds to the German alliance
to carry on their disloyal propa-
ganda, should be investigated" said
Wayne B. Wheeler, attorney and gen.
eral counsel for the Anti-Saloon
League Of America, in an address last
night. at the Community Meeting,
Columbia road and Twentieth street
Mr.. Wheeler continued:
"Breweries here that furnish div
idends or donations to our enemy or
to those who aid our enemy, should
be seized as enemy property. Why
pass a trading with the enemy act
and allow the pro-German brewers
who are the financial backbone of
seditious Germanism here, to 60 scot
free?
The testimony before the judiciary
Committee of the Senate investigat-
ing the German-American Alliance is
astounding. The last Slain of the pro-
German brewers for further existence
is forfeited"

Address Letters Carefully;
Boys Will Get Them Sooner

soldiers who have thus complained,
237 have already written to the Post
office Department advising that since
the complaint their addresses in
France are receiving their letters and
parcels. The Postoffice Department
desires to receive the complaints about
mail which indicate a delay Of more
than six weeks, as each complaint Is
followed into the camps and trenches,
where a report is obtained either from
the mail orderly or his commanding
officer on the cause of the delay. In
this manner the Postoffice Depart
ment has been able to get gratifying
results in the movement of the mail
both while ii is in its custody and af-
ter it passes out OF its jurisdiction in
to the hands OF the military authori-
ties.
When it is considered that about
100000 pieces of mail a month go to
the soldiers in France and that the
boys are not located in one compact
line but scattered over France, the
delay, though unfortunate and some
almost negligible in quantity.
American relatives writing to SOL
diers in France are requested by the
United States postal service in France
to be more careful in directing mail to
soldiers.
They are asked to write with ink, to
use Private" or rank title instead of
Mister" to make their writing par
ticularly clear and legiAle and to write
names in full instead of using initials.

Pittsburgh, will be given a hearing
before a United States commissioner
here tomorrow.
Frank l. Boyd, chief special agent

The following statement is author
lied by Hon. Otto Praeger, Second
Assistant Postmaster General:
Parents and relatives of soldiers in
France are urged to take into consid-
Grafton conditions in connection with
the mails to the troops abroad, when
they receive complaints about delay in
delivery of mail. They can rest as
sured that a soldier who is with his
command and not absent on detached
duty, or for other causes, will receive
his mail in approximately thirty days
from the time of the mailing of let
ters. Instances are innumerable
where mail has been received in be-
tween fifteen and twenty days, but on
the other hand there are a great
many cases where soldiers have fail
ed to received their letters or pack
ages within a period of from two To
three months from the time OF their
mailing.
When mail does not reach a soldier
within thirty days from the time Of
mailing, it is due, sometimes, to a
temporary irregularity In the sailings
Of steamships and transports, it is
due. sometimes, to the fact that the
military authorities in France, possi-
bly, for military reasons, have not
promptly advised the postal agency Of
the location OF the troops, if they are
newly arrived or II they have recently
changed their location; It Is due,
sometimes to the fact that the soldier
has been to the hospital or has been
on detached service away from his
regiment, and the mail orderlies
charged with the readdressing of the
mail have been slow to forward the
letters to the new address.
There are en- file with the Post
once Department 1850 complaints
about the delay to the mail to the
boys in France. OF the relatives of

Women Patriots Eager
For Munitions Work

Bloomsfield. n. J., March 9.-Indis-
putable evidence that the women of
England are no more patriotic than
their sisters in America was given
here today when some 500 feminine
patriots, responding to an appeal of
the Mayors Committee, volunteered
their services as munitions workers.
Varying in age frob Is to 30 and
coming from all walks OF life, the
women will take the places of men
called to arms from the Interna-

The Food Administration main
tains that the price OF no other grain
has advanced so much respecting net
return to the farmer as compared
with pre-war conditions. as has that
Of wheat. The transportation Difficult
ties have operated to create higher
prices to the consumer because II
has not been possible, 1t is contended,
for the railroads to get grain to
primary markets as fast as the de-
mand for export and domestic use
could and would have absorbed. This
has resulted, the food officials say. in
maintaining an artifcially high diff
ferential between the farmer and con-
sumner.

 Presents Honor Flags.
 At the conclusion of MT. Taylor's address, Rev H. A. Stowell present. ed the honor flags awarded by the treasury department to the county and to the communities which over subscribed their quotas for the Third Liberty loan. MT. Powell accepted the flag for the county, J. L. Quattle- baum for Sherrill, J. P. Walt for Alt heimer, Dr. Cunningham for Redfield and H. E. Helvie for Faith MT.

board No. 2, and Edwin Loosley,
 chairman of selective board No. :, ,
 spoke briefly, telling of the work of
 the boards. MT. Loosley said the
 duty was not a pleasant one; that
 wherever exemptions were sought the
 relatives and friends of the registered
 man believed there were extenuating
 circumstances, but that the board
 members had conscientiously tried to
 do their duty impartially, and that they were glad to have had the sup
 port of the majority of the people. He voiced appreciation of this support, and showed that the boards were serving the people and not any par ticular faction.
 The meeting concluded with the singing of Keep the Home Fires
 Burning" Mrs. Earl J. Logue leading,
 and benediction by Rev. Stowell. Endorses War Angelus.
 Judge E. J. Kerwin and H. Kemp Tcney addressed an audience of about 1 200 at Toney's lake, where coun- tywide barbecue and picnic was en- joyed. Judge Kerwin strongly en- dorsed the movement launched by the International Association of Rotalv clubs for the observance of the War Angelus, expressing confidence in the efficacy of prayer and declaring that it is good for people at this time to devote one minute in the middle of the day to meditation and prayer. He
 said the Catholics have observed the
 angelus at noon and in the evening for two thousand years. He warned against Prussian spies and propagan- da, declared there must be no thought
 of peace until Prussianism and all it stands for has been crushed, and urged the people to practice thrift, in vest in war securities and support the soldiers and the government in every way possible. Judge Kerwin's ad-
 dress was declared by many who heard it to be one of the best he has ever delivered.
 MT. Toney spoke on War Savings stamps, and the duty of everyone to
 save and invest savings in these wat
 securities. He declared that to do
 so is not only a patriotic duty, but tisst
 it is an obligation the people safe at home owe to the men who are ready
 to lay down their lives to protect America from domination by the
 Huns. He said the sacrifice entail ed in practicing thrift is little com- pared with the greater sacrifices the soldiers are daily making, and small indeed with the sufferings and hard ships that would be the portion of the people of this country should lack of support of Americans at home per- nit the Germans to effect peace be- fore democracy has triumphed. He expressed confidence that the people of this county will do their part in supporting the fighters, and thus make victory certain.

 MT. Frolich declared it was impos- sible for native Americans to under stand the plight of the people of Ger many and other countries ruled by autocrats. "They are all in bondage" |" he said. MT. Frolich then referred to the sinking of ships off the Allan tlce coast by German submarines, and said that was nothing at all compared with what will happen eff the German military comes here'
 He said that is why everyone should be willing to make any sacri- flee, "because if they come here you will lose everything anyhow, so why not help now, keep them from coming over here; help now so we go over there and lick them," declaration that was applauded.
 MT. Frclich said it is the duty of everyone, and especially the foreign born who has come here and enjoyed privileges and liberties, opportunities and prosperity he did not possess in the land of his birth, to stand loyalty by the government and to aid in every way the success of American arms. lie said when he get his pay check he went to the Simmons National bank and paid $10 on a Liberty bond, s5 to the Red Cross and $5 for War Savings stamps.
 "It is not much," he said simply, "but it is all can afford. I would do more if l could afford it.' He plead ed for everyone to buy War Savings stamps to the limit of their ability. Work of Selective Boards. J. P. Walt, chairman of selectivp
