FOOD SAYING IS
  TO BE STRICTER THAN HERETOFORE New Program Calls for h. creased Saving of 30
 Per Cent. Over the
 Past Year.
| S MOST IMPERATIVE
The United States Has Ta- ken Attitude Whatever All Allies Want, Amer
 ica Will Supply.
Educational Director Alaska's
 Food Administration

To correct an erroneous impres sion that seems to prevail in the minds of sundry persons in towns on Gastineau Channel-that under the new conservation program of the Food Administration there is no longer any necessity for conserving foodstuffs-that there is now noth. ing definite-that there is no limit on flour consumption-that there arc no wheatless or meatless days, spec ial drives" or campaigns-th only sugar is asked to be saved-the Food Administration for Alaska, speaking for the U. s. Food Admin istration, wishes to emphatically state that the new conservation pro gram for the coming year is stiffer than anything that has preceded, though by paradox it is more flexible. In response to Allied needs and the requirements of the military situa- tion. it contemplates increasing by 50 per cent. the unprecedented food exports of last year from food sup plies in the aggregate no larger than last year. This is to be accomplished by saving.
 MT. Hoover has taken the attitude for the United States that whatever the war food program of the Allies requires of us we are prepared to meet.
 It is strictly an international pro gram. Last year the Food Adminis- tration could do little more than meet one sudden emergency after another. Now it is a unified pro. gram. with calculations of all the re- sources of the Allied pool, of the shipping available. of the military effect Of employing the vessels for all or another purpose.

GERMAN TROOPS JOIN FRENCH
 WITH THE BRITISH, Oct. 2s.- The British captured large number of Aisatians in the region of vaIen- ceinnes.
 f Most of them expressed the desire to join the French Army, declaring that they had been dragged into the German Army against their will, and desire more than anything else to fight the Kaiser and Crown Prince.
 They assured the French officers that they would give a good account of themselves, and desired above all else to be showed in the front rapks where they could quickly come in contact with those who. forced them into the service.

purifiers. They say that calomel
cleanses the liver. stomach, bowels and
kidneys and purifies the blood from all
poisons. making the system pure and
clean so that nature can quickly re-
store the health.
Now that science has purified calo-
mel of all its nauseating and danger
Gus qualities. the new kind of calomel.
called "Calotabs." is even more popu-
lar than the old. AS a liver cleanser
and system purifier Calotabs are more
effective than the old style calomel.

4 BOUGHT BACK
GOOD HEALTH IN
QUICK FASHION
Roanoke Barber Describes the BEST
Investment He Ever Nndc-wants
Other. to Know About II.

Sick, nerve-tired men and women
who think their cases are beyond re-
lief. are advised to follow the example
of J. F.. Harris. the we'll known barber
OF East Salem Avenue, Roanoke. Here
is his description OF what he did as a
last resort In a long and fruitless
search for health:
My stomach was out Of order, my
kidneys and liver were In an un-
healthy state. l was constipated and
suffered the most distressing pains
across my back. was all tired out
before ! went TO work in the morning
and I had dizzy spells that caused me
to stagger like 4 drunken man. Moth
Ing ever seemed to bring me any per-
manent relief until a friend insisted
that l try little of the new herb
medicine, Dreco, that so many people
are talking about these days. / bought
a bottle OF Dreco and with it bought
back good health in quick fashion.
seemed to feel better almost from the
very start OF the treatment. My appe-
lite improved, my eyes frightened up
and L stepped out on the street as II
were really going somewhere instead
OF tagging and dragging along as in
former times.
Now I can sleep like a baby, and
hop out of bed in the morning full OF
pep and ready for days work. From
hopeless invalid to a live and
healthy human being in such n short
time that some OF my closest friends
were astounded at the sudden change
that's my experience with Dreco, and
II this statement will help some other
hopeless sufferer l am glad to give It,"
Nothing could be added to the above
statement TO make it any more forcl-
bic than II is now. No other argu-
ment should be required for any sick
person TO at least resolve to give
Dreco ! trial and see for themselves if
their case really is as hopeless as they
imagine.
For the sake of your health and hap
piness get a supply OF Dreco right
away and give it chance to bring
back your God-given right to health
and robust strength.
Dreco Is now dispensed by best drug
gists everywhere and is particularly
recommended in Richmond by Tragic

questions to Mayor Ainslie, saying that
they were fundamental in that they
would decide the rules that would
guide the Investigation 10 the end.
The asst question was in regard to
the range OF evidence and the admis-
, sibility Of evidence. This question
the Mayor answered by saying that the
practice of courts Of record would be
adhered TO. The second question OF Mr..
Wise was an elaborate discourse upon
the powers that the Mayor exercised
over the Police Department, as decided
f. by the Hastings Court.
i He said that the power Of the Mayor
comes from the Constitution in section
100 and from the amended charter for
the city OF Richmond as Is included in
the Acts OF 1916. Then Mr.. Wise read
IAN excerpt from the charter which says
J that the Chief of Police serves during
the pleasure of the Mayor "pending
good behavior. efficiency and for the
good of the service" 1t was appar
ent TO those who have been following
I the cases that the prose cution intended
J to lay down rules in the beginning
which would contradict and deny the
point made by the defense in the Hust-
ings Court TO the effect that a police
officer could b.. suspended or removed
from Office only for misconduct in Of
fee or neglect of duty"

admit that the Mayor has broad pow
ers But let's do away with the long
and interminnbl delays OF investi-
cation and do justice to the accused"
Then IT was that Policeman Clarke
proceeded with his testimony. He had
not gone far before the question or
hearsay evidence was raised by the de-
tense. ard this was overruled. He
started again, and It became evident
that his testimony related to a scene
