BOARDING FOOD
C. N. HERREID ISSUES CIRCULAR
LETTER TO COUNTY FOOD
CHAIRMEN.

Aberdeen, March special: To-
day in reply to several hundred in
q%uiries, Charles N. Herreid, federal
food administrator, sent to every
county chairman the following:
No one seems to know very def
nitely what constitutes boarding"
food, especially wheat flour and SUI
gar. Last year, by act of congress,
boarding was made a serious crime.
Until our courts decide, it will re-
main a matter of conjecture.
Manifestly numerou facts and
modifying circumstances must be
considered. Does the culprit live in
a town or in the country-far from a
store or base of supplies; the number
of members in the family; climate
and road conditions; family and per.
sonal conditions; the need for conser-
walton, etc.
Officially, | have no authority at
this writing to establish a rule of ac-
ton binding upon the citizens of our
state, now and for the near future,
but in view of starving Belgians, Ar
menians and others; the critical con-
ditions of the Allies; the imperative
need for ample supplies for u own
army and navy; the accepted fact
that food will win the war; the
superabundance of all kinds of food
in our country for our own people
my private opinion is that to people
in town, sugar and wheat flour in ex-
cess of a supply for four or five
weeks might be considered hoard
ing" while with farmers and ranch
men the reasonable supply might be
for at least eight. 10 or even IL
weeks, always recognizing the fact
that wheat flour and sugar must be
used sparingly, in connection with a
reasonable proportion of the s~o-called
substitutes" and other food.
The fact that large supplies on
hand were bought, as heretofore, in
customary quantities, is immaterial.
except the fact goes to negative evil
intentions. This is war. Our peace
and prosperity, customs and habits
are very properly modified by war
conditions. The same power that can
take from us III relatives and
friends to fight the foreign foe can
take from us our flour and sugar to
win the war. There is no chance for
argument on this point.

BLACKSMITHS WANTED
SOUTH DAKOTA CALLED UPON
no FURNISH THIRTY-FIVE.

Redfield, March 4.-The urgent
needs Of our army have caused the
provost marshal to call on this state
to furnish 35 white b~lacksmiths, who
must be physically and technically
qualified, to be indicted through
their local boards for the aviation
section of the signal corps, and sent
to Kelly field, San Antonio, Tex.
Until March 8, registrants desiring
this service may be indicted volun-
tariiy by local boards. After that
date. If the quota of 35 has not been
filled, local boards will be called on
to supply deficiency by selection of
qualified registrants in class /. Pub
licity of needs of our army, it is
hoped, will result in the filling of this
call by voluntary induction by March
8 without resort to selection of reg
istrants by local boards.

Adjutant General.

HOSTESS HOUSES
WOMEN ARE DOING A WONDER.
Full WORK IN THE
Y. w. &. A.

Sioux Falls, March 4.-That the
hostess houses at the environments,
provided by the Y. w. C. A., are alb
solutely indispensable to the boys
and the public alike, is the statement
of Herman C. Freese, president of
the Bee Hive company, who has just
returned from the east, where he had
full opportunity to see the wonderful
work that the women are doing.
Mr.. Freese, in company with his
s~ister-in-law, Mrs. X. Kinder, were
called to Camp Merritt, N. j., on re.
ceipt of word that the 121st regi-
ment, field artillery. in which George
Kinder, a Sioux Falls boy. is a men,
Der, vas expected to leave any day
for France.
When we arrived" said Mr..
Freese, I'VE supposed, of course.
there was some system of locating Il
boy, but we also thought we would
be allowed in the camp. There are
10000 boys there and it would have
been like looking for a needle in a
haystack to find George
Visitors are stopped al the en-
trance by a guard and a pass de-
handed. These are difficult to get,
but you are at once referred to the
hostess house of the Y. w. C. A., just
outside the camp lines. This hostess
house is a revelation. 1t was simply
ja,Emed with people waiting to see
friends or relatives. 1t has a broad
veranda like our Country club and
this was filled with soldiers visiting.
Immediately after we reached the
hostsess house. we were met by some
extremely energetic, cordial and
women, who at once dis
patched an aide to Georges camp. 1t
required about two hours to get him.

To Commander Platinum.

Washington, March 4.-Orders have
been issued for the Communicating
for raj purposes of all crude and
platinum in the hands Of
importers, jobbers and wholesalers.
Increasing need for platinum in the
manufacture of munitions. rendered
this step imperative IL the war pro-
gram was not to receive a serious
setback. Communicating will be ar
ried out through the War depart
ment. The world supply of the metal
is comparatively small and produc-
ton has decreased since war began.

EXTRA SESSION
IMPRESSION OVER THE STATE
THAT LEGISLATURES WILL
BE SUMMONED.

Pierre, March 4.-There has been
much argument throughout the state
during the winter whether or not ii
would be necessary to call a special
session of the legislature for war pur-
poses. 1t seems likely at this time
that a special session will have to be
called for business reasons and II so
will likely be called about the middle
of March. An acute situation is de-
%veloping in regard to furnishing
Irvine for the coming crop. The out
put of Irvine from the penitentiary
this year will be the largest in the
history of the state, providing funds
can be secured for the purchase of
raw material. Sisal now costs about
three times as much as in former
years. At the suggestion of Gov.
Norbeck, a night shift was put on at
the state plant.
Ii has also been a much mooted le-
gal question as to whether the SOL
diers who are now in France would
have the right TO vote. The attorney
general has recently held that under
the present law they will be deprived
of their right of franchise both in the
primary and the fall elections. The
situation i'm South Dakota seems to-
be about the same as that in other
sachusetts and other states have re-
Gently held extra sessions for the pur-
pose of amending their election laws
in this respect.
embarrassing each month and it is
possible that the governor will rec
ommend that the legislature submit
a constitutional amendment giving
the legislature full authority to open
and operate. coal mines in the Ignite
fields in the northwestern part of the
state. 1t is understood that there
are some good veins of Ignite neal
the state line.
The state council of defense and
the home guards have thus far been
without legal authority. as these
questions came up after the adjourn
ment of the regular session of the
legislature. The various towns and
communities have literally assisted
the home guards in securing the nee
essary money for uniforms, but 1t is
likely that a demand will be made
for the state to furnish rifles. These
however, could not be secured for
several months as the output of the
factories is required for the army.
In many cases the counties would
have contributed to the support OF
the home guards but the laws forbids
this. 1t is likely that in case of a
special session of the legislature the
law will be changed so that the coun-
ties can give their assistance. 1t Is
therefore not thought that any large
appropriations will be asked for by
the home guards or the state council
of defense. 1t is understood that
the governor Is in favor of legalizing
and giving the necessary assistance.
but considers any large %appropria-
tions inadvisable and unnecessary.

Battleplane Flies 800 Miles
to Bomb German Ship Goeben
By CONDO

next and perhaps the most difficult
stage of the pourney, was over the AL
bantam Alps to Saloniki, a trip of $50
miles across mountains verying from
5000 to 10000 feet, with no suitable
place for landing in case of need In
covering this distance only two stops
were made, the first at Paris and the
second at Pisa.
From Saloniki the adventurous
party flew to their base, overhauled
the machine and prepared for a long
distance bombing expedition to Con-
stantinople. a distance of 800 miles.
ON their attacking trip they set
forth with 16 bombs and on arriving
at the Sea of Marmora throttled down
from 1000 to 1000 feet, the Golden
Horn and other points being clearly in
view.
After a short survey of the lights
of Constantinople, and to make sure
of their objective, they came down to
500 feet and dropped a salvo of four
bombs, hoping to hit the Goeben which
was anchored just beneath them. I'm
fortunately they missed the ship, but
managed to hit one or two submarines
that were lying alongside har.
Turning on their track, they made
this time in spite of the attentions of
a number of Turkish and German an
ti-airCraft guns, managed to land four
bombs on the battleship. Then they
flew to a ship called the General,
which was the headquarters of the
German staff and dropped two bombs
on her. Next they made their way to
the Turkish war office and dropped
two more bombs on that building, the
Turkish official report of the incident
stating that the war- office was not
damaged
after half an hours bombing on
Constantinople they turned round and
made for their base. One OF their en-
gines was disabled and no fewer than
20 bullet holes were made in their
machine. The journey to CONSTANT
rople and back a distance of $40 miles,
occupied seven hours They were
thirty hours in the air on the flight
from London to Constantinople."

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Jan. 15.-The cotton
market had a quiet opening today put
the bearish census figures, which
showed only 516,580 bales consumed
in December against 536,675 in De-
cember last year, had little effect on
sentiment and first prices were TO
IL points higher. 1t was contended
bv bulls that the small census fig
ures were easily explained by the
fuel situation and the difficulties at
tending the transportation. With
spot houses fair buyers and reports
Of continued drouth in the southwest.
March later advanced to 31.60 and
Nav 81 %, representing net rise OF
"a points. Moderate realizing caused
later reactions but the market at the
end of the first hour was 10 to IL
points net higher. The trade was
an active buyer of March.
Improvement in the stock market
was followed by covering orders in
cotton which rallied March from 31.35
to 31.53 and May from 31.00 to 31.16
towards midday. To continued scatter
inc trade buying added support from
Liverpool, but outside interest was
light owing to poor wire service. The
western forecast rave no promise OF
any relief from the dry spell while
clearing and much colder weather
was expected in the east.
a sharp break in the afternoon
carried March down to 1927 and May
to 3OS8 or 9 to 10 points under the
previous night. The weakness was
due to report that the president had
been asked to declare Monday an of
fetal holiday in the eastern states
until the coal problem is solved. On
the idea that this would reduce cot
ton consumption by about 10000
bales monthly, there was good deal
of selling by room traders for Wall
Street account.
