SMALLER PORTIONS

Drastic Food Saving Regu-
lations Effective in Res
taurants Today
ALLIED NATIONS
MUST BE FED

The new food regulations for all
hotels. restaurants and public eating
houses, promulgated by the Food Nd
mlnlstratlon, went into effect today,
The idea OF the food officials Is TO save,
II possible, food that Is needed particu-
larly for shipment abroad and also TO
conserve fifty per cent. more food this
year than last. The reason for this Is
plain. Every mile Of territory captured
by the Allies Is left devastated and a
complete ruin by the Huns. so that In
addition 10 their own armies and peo-
pies back OF the lines the Allies must
feed increasing thousands OF civilians,
In towns and country being taken daily
by General Foch's forces.
The new food rules prohibit toast be-
lng used as a garniture under food.
Not more than half ounce Of Ameri-
can cheese TO a person at meal.
Only one kind Of meat Is served a per-
son at a meal, which includes poultry.
Bacon may not be served as garnE
ture.
Not more than one-half ounce OF but
ter Is TO be served a person at one meal.
Not more than one teaspoonful OF
sugar to a person al one meal. This
must be asked for and sugar bowls are
forbidden. This amount Of sugar must
embrace all cooking as well as for coffee
or tea. Two pounds must last ninety
meals.
No food may be burned, but waste
must be saved so that fats may be re-
claimed.
No bread 10 be served until after soup
or first course. All bread 10 contain 20
per cent, OF substitute and two ounces to
a mealer.
Whether the restaurants have reduced
prices on any Of their orders was not
announced today.

PLURAL VOTING IS NOT FAVORED IN
 THE LOWER HOUSE

NEW YORK, March 13.-Com- ments in German newspapers re- gently received here, show that they had vigorously disapproved of the system of plural voting in Prus- sia, which subsequently, was accept ed by the franchise committee of the lower house of the Prussian Diet and incorporated in the bill for submission to the Prussian Par liament. The German editors had declared. before the franchise com mittee thus gave its approval of the plural voting system, that this would not fulfill the intent of the mani festo issued last July by Emperor William, as King of Prussia, in which he announced that a hill would be introduced in the Diet pro viding for universal and equal suf- frage.

ANOTHER TEST OF RULING OF
 ALASKA FUNDS
Southeastern Alaska Game and Fish Club Intends to Take Action at
 Once.

Last night at the meeting of the Southeastern Alaska Fish and Game Club, committee composed of Charles Garfield, A. J. Sprague, and Dr. Robert Simpson was appointed to test the validity of the ruling which is tying up the $S0,000 fish hatchery appropriation passed by tho Legislature last year. It is the hope of the Club that this money will be- come available and that the work ot matching trout eggs and planting them in barren lakes and streams may be carried on with Territorial money. At the present time the Club is doing everything possible to car ry on their work, but the burden is almost too heavy.
 vote of thinks was extended to the Juneau Merchants Association for its assistance in securing the $200 recently set aside by the Governor which has been expended in paying rent, buying food and other neces- sary expenses for the hatchery.
