FOR GREATER
SACRIFICES
Nation Will be Called Upon to Save
More Wheat and Meat Than
They Have Been
Doinu

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. |
CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-The nation Is
to be called on for even greater saw
ings of wheat and meats.
Federal food administrators OF all
states will confer with Herbert Hoov.
err in Washington next Tuesday and
Wednesday, Harry A. Wheeler, Hi
nois administrator. announced today.
Plans for intensifying the conserva-
ton movement are to be laid at that
conference.
Millers will be forced to produce a.
ten per cent coarser wheat flour or
mix small quantities of oats or bar
ley flour to save the wheat, Wheeler
announced Another plan is to re-
quire housewives to purchase a wheat
substitute when quantities of wheat
flour are bought. This is not widely
favored, according to Wheeler.
What steps may be taken to save
meats, have not been announced.
Wheatless and meatless days will no.

TOWN REBUILT
BY TWO WOMEN
Mrs. Croker and Mrs. Polk Did Not
Even Forget Fountain Where
Cows Used to
Drink.
[By George Martin, United Press
Staff Correspondent.

[By George Martin, United Press
Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON Jan. 2.-Interna-
tional mystery surrounds two attrac-
tive women who picked the she'll
ruined French village of Vitremont
out of it's Lorraine mud and rebuilt
it completely.
Mrs. Crocker and Mrs. Polk" is
the best Identification the women's
committee of the council of national
defense has of them. 1t would like
to know more.
They scuttled up in the wake of
the German retreat, did Mrs. Crock
er and Mrs. Polk" rebuilt the village
with their own and few assistants
hands, and hid their identity meath
peach basket hats.
The story--what the Lorrainers
know Of it-leaked through from
France to the women's committee
here There is glory and pride for
some American city, town or village
in the feminine accomplishment.
They appeared as mysteriously at
vitremont as those redoubtable globe
trotting old ladies, "Mrs. Lecks and
Mrs. Aleshine," of fiction fame. de-
scended upon the deserted cottage.
Before the war Vitremont was a
gay and smiling little town. The
Germans took it on their way to
Paris. When the Teutonic hordes
rolled back before the French and
British onslaught, there was no more
left of vitremont than there is of
loose seashell when the breaker laps
it from the beach.
Refugees came struggling back to
nothing. "Mrs. Croker and Mrs.
Polk" appeared. With them came
building materials and workmen. Up
went new houses on the blackened
ruins, one by one. Then the church
reappeared. The little school house
was reincarnated next The town hall
walked in and sat down on It's foun-
dation in due time. Even the four1-
tain, where the cattle came to drink,
arose in it's old place. And by the
time all the villagers came back,
whoever would come back, cows
were in their stalls; under the sheds
were carts and in the barns, hay,
straw and seed.
1t was a shining miracle In the
world of desolation. But the gay,
busy, feminine American miracle
workers were gone.
