Closing Orders

Bismarck, N. d., Nov. 9.-In re-
Spouse to a flood of queries, Capt. I.
P. Baker, federal fuel administrator
for North Dakota, has advised coun-
ty fuel administrators that his recent
early closing order does not affect
drug, news, or confectionery stores;
barber shops, pool-rooms, theaters,
garages, shoe makers or tailor re-
pair shops.
Where several kinds of business
are conducted in the same store or
place, and some are affected by the
order, the affected departments must
close, but the unaffected departments
or the store or place Of business may
remain open," says Capt. Baker.
A distinction is made between mer-
chant or custom tailors and tailor re-
pair shops, the former being required
to close while the latter are not.
There is also distinction between
service garages and garages which
are maintained merely for the dis
play or sale Of automobiles, parts and
accessories, the latter being affected
by the order requiring "esta blsh-
ments engaged in the sale or display
Of goods" to close at o'clock each
evening except Saturday and to open
not earlier than 8 a. m.
In making this distinction, Capt.
Baker announces that an effort has
been made not to interfere with any
establishment essential to the COM
fort or amusement of the public or
| which renders such necessary SER
vice as that furnished by garages and
| tailor and shoe repair shops. %%

with the testimony taken here for

Mr.. Becker asserted that, although
Germany is loudly proclaiming her
characterization" she has sent on
the present important mission the
great propaganda who with Won
Jagow, former German foreign min
lister, arranged for the disbursement
of funds in Italy and France to pur-
chase newspapers and influence po-
