sending men to France as fast as ships
can carry them. ;,
Today's graduation was that OF the
class of 1919, whose members were
awarded their diplomas a year ahead of
time. the first since 1877 to attain that
distinction. because of the urgent de-
mand in the army for trained officers.
Secretary Baker. who awarded the di-
plon1as. told the graduates that they
were destined to have a part in leading
the armies of the nation to a victorious
peace. After that" he said. las Off

tire sugar supply will be cut off. The
previous rule was that purchases

The new order also makes clear
that for preserving purposes a single

purchaser Of that amount can be had
only on the authority 0. the state or
county food administrator.
This increasing strictness of regu-

especially her supply of food to Great

been growing until the supply from
