NATIONS BIG FOOD INDUSTRY
Duties of Holders of Foodstuffs Out
lined by Charles J. Brand,
Chief of Bureau.

Washington, Jan. All dealers in
and holders of foodstuffs in quantities
substantially greater than family sup
plies should report in the war emer-
gency food survey of the United
States to be made as of January l.,
even though they do not receive inquiry
blanks by mail, according to state
ment made here by Charles J. Brand,
chief of the bureau of markets of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, who has the big war inventory in
charge
1--WE have attempted to send sched-
ules from Washington to each of the
hundreds of thousands of firms and in
dividuals who handle the food supply
of the country, but obviously 1t has
been physically impossible to reach
them ALL" said Mr.. Brand. "All deal
ers, manufacturers and warehousemen
having any food in their possession,
and all other concerns, such as hotels
and institutions having more than $3.50
worth of food on hand, should arrange
to report their holdings of December
81, whether schedules have been deliv-
cred to them or not. In case they do
not receive schedules by January 2,
they should write for copies to the bu-
reau of markets, United States depart
ment of agriculture, at Washington, or
should call at or write to one of the
many branch offices throughout the
country"

lew CABINET POST
SENATOR CHAMBERLAIN INTRO
DUcES MUNITIONS MEASURE.
Proposed Act Has the Backing of the
Senate Committee and Will Be
Strongly Pressed.

Washington, Jan. IA department
of munitions under a new cabinet head
known as the secretary of munitions
is proposed in a bill introduced on Fri
day by Chairman Chamberlain of the
senate military committee as q result
of the committees investigation of war
operations. The new department would
operate during the war and one year
thereafter. The bill has the backing
of the senate committee and will be
strongly pressed.
The new secretary Of munitions
would have power under the presi-
dents direction to control arms, am
nun1tion, food, clothing, equipment,
tentage, transportation and any other
materials the president shall desig
nate as munitions of war.
Government bureaus, agencies and
funds necessary to a munitions admin
istratiOn would be transferred to the
new department which contemplates
control of naval as we'll as army sup
plies.
"The bill is intended to increase
and expedite the supply of munitions
of war;" said Senator Chamberlain.
Zone great trouble with the war estab-
lishment as disclosed by the investi-
cation has been a lack of cO-ordina-
ton and the seeming impossibility of
getting rid of circuitous methods of
doing business. Until there can be CO.
ordination and methods more direct
the United States will be cropping in
the dark for many months before we
can place ourselves in proper fighting
trim"

SAVING FOR WAR POPULAR
asm Shown at Meetings in
Northern Part of State.

Milwaukee, H. Puelicher, state
director for war savings, and Robert
Baird, state executive secretary, re-
turned from a tour through the north
ern part of the state, in the inteest OF
the war savings campaign.
Messrs. Puelicher and Baird visited
Marinette, Oconto, Green Bay and APP
pleton, at each of which places large
public meetings were held, and the
campaign carefully outlined.
Mr.. Puelicher says: "We found a
splendid optimism prevailing in every
city visited. In each place working or
CARNATIONS have been perfected, and
the campaign is well under way.
"At Marinette we addressed meet
ing consisting OF more than fifty work
ers. At Green Bay and Appleton, each
more than 100 were assembled, and at
Oconto more than 200. In this latter
place particular enthusiasm was
shown.
Mr.. Puelicher says he feels more OPP
timistic than ever concerning the re-
suits of the campaign in Wisconsin.
As rapidly as possible he will visit
other points in the state to assist the
various county chairmen in getting
their organizations into thorough
working condition.

RUSS SCORN PEACE
TROTZKY SAYS SLAVS WILL NOT
CONSENT TO PROPOSALS.
Declares 100000 Ready to Fight if
Central Powers Do Not Change
Demands.

Petrograd. Jan. 5.-The bOlshevfki
foreign minister, Leon Trotzky, de-
clared that the government of the Rus
sian workers would not consent TO the
German peace proposals.
M. TrotZky's declaration was made
before the central committee of the
council of workmen's and sailors
delegates, during an address in which
he denounced in scathing terms Ser
many's hypocritical peace proposal"
Asserting that the government of
Russian workers would not consent to
such conditions, he said that If the
central powers did not agree to free
disposal of the destiny of the Polish
and Lettish nations, it would be urgent
ly necessary to defend the Russian
revolution. He said the needs at the
front would be satisfied, whatever eff
forts might be necessary.
Representative from all the fronts
who attended the meeting declared
the troops would defend the revolu-
ton, but said bread and boots were
necessary.
The Russian peace delegation Off
cially has suggested to the central pow
ers that the meeting place of the peace
delegates be transferred to neutral
soil.
The halt in the negotiations and in
dicatiOns of a German refusal to re-
move the conference to Stockholm have
revived universal discussion in Petro-
grad of resumption of fighting, with
a greatly reduced army probably g.
100000 men.
