Special to Times Republican.
Burlington, April 12.-H. L. Roberts,
of Postville has been sentenced by the
United States food administration to
pay the Red Cross $500 and to sign a
public apology for selling flour at re-
tail without the proper substitutes and
his license to sell -four has been re-
voked by the administrators He was
summoned before County AGministra-
tors u. J. Murphy and 1, E. Beeman, at
Waukon, and the penalty imposed by
them has been confirmed by Admin
istrator Deems.
In his public apology, Mr.. Roberts
says his violation was without intent
to be unpatriotic but he appreciates
that his conduct may have misled
others and if so whatever harm has
been done has caused him sorrow in
addition to the suffering incident to the
heavy penalty imposed.
Will Impose Heavy Penalties.
1t is the intention of the food ad-
ministration from this time to impose
severe penalties on all willful violators.
Every opportunity for cooperation has
been afforded Iowa merchants and a
very large per cent of them have loyal
ly observed the regulations. The few
who fail from now on to cooperate
will face a strict and severe enforce
ment Of the law. False rumors OF a
harmful type relating to food condi-
lions are circulating extensively IN
Iowa. One is to the effect that the use
Of all wheat -four will be prohibited
May and another is that people can
not sell eggs during April and May.
Both statements are false and are
denied at the Burlington heatiuuar-
ters of the food administration to
which all runors of the kind should be
promptly referred.
Administrator Deems is asking the
people to join the total abstinence
movement to save wheat flour. but
there is nothing compulsory about 1T.

Cedar Falls, April 1.-THE apparent
high-handed methods sefss.ls meat
packers seem to havs been little af-
fected by the governments PROBE ac--
cording to prominent Cedar Falls
retailer in recounting> his experience
with leading Iowa packing firm.
While the packer admits that meat is
plentiful in this country and that
America has "inore than enough
meat" on hand to supply the allied
governments the price of Aeat has
not lowered-and some packers are de-
manding prompt cash payment from
the retailer instead If the customary
thirty day Gre lit period
Replying to the Cedar Falls mer-
chants letter Of protest against such
methods, the Iowa packer intimates
that the meat packing situation is still
in statu quo and that apparently the
government probe has fallen down.
r. With reference to the late agita-
ton between the packers and the
United States agents, will say that this
matter seems to have been dropped.
The, United States prosecutor Mr..
4ieney, is not working for the govern
ment any longer. All the agitation in
the papers has not made any particu-
lar change excepting possibly in the
hours and wages enforced in Chicago.
You undoubtedly have read that the
packers row have granted the eight
hour day in The Chicago yards. This
year the packers have their profits
fixed by the government, and are mort
or less under government control.
a large pr cent Of the meat
packed in this country has been sold
to the various governments and for
export. This will continue as long as
the war lasts and with increasing ex-
ports for our own troops.
Eat the same time, the stocks of
meat in this country are very heavy.
The food administration has taken off
ali meatless days and is encouraging
the consumption of meat as much as
possible. There is more than enough
meat on hand in this country to sup
ply the allied governments as fast as
they can ship it over"

where the new building will be built.
Upon opening the box, two or three
bones were discovered but as soon as
the air reached them they dissolved.
Thirty-four years ago fire destroyed
an elevator on this same site and the
discovery Of this box recalls the
mysterious circumstances surround
ing the burning of the building, many
persons at the time thinking it was
incendiary The. question in the minds
of the old timers is was there a MUIR
der committed in the elevator and the
body placed j his box and buried
where it was round. No one can
remember of the disappearance of any
one of local. character at that time,
but as the country was infested with
hobos many think that one or more
tramps may have killed one OF their
companions and buried him there.
