MOTION PICTURE WORK
is ESSENTIAL INDUSTRY

Washington, Aug. 23.--The mot1on
picture industry in all its branches
has been recognized as an essential
industry by the war industries board.
Chairman Baruch announced today
that this action lad been taken in line
with Provost Marshal General Grow
der's ruling under the work or fight
regulation that the industry afforded
useful occupation.
Recognition of its value in affording
an educational medium for the great

dustry upon the preferred list for pr--
GRITTY
The erection of new picture theatres

~ On eETlc MOVE.

Washington, Aug 23-Almost un-
varying successes described in to-
days dispatches telling OF the great
allied offensive on the fifty mile front
stretching from scissors northward
to the enYirons of Arras raised hopes
In military circles here for the most
decisive defeat yet administrated to
the Germans.
observers were of the opinion that
General Fochs whiting tactics of
the past six weeks have been so eff
fectiye that opportunity has come for
q glorious harvest.
Absence of any mention of Ameri
can troops in the descriptions of the
great fight led to interested specula-
tons as TO the Whereabouts of Gen
eral Pershing's thirty divisions which.
according to recent announcement.
are to be included in the first Ameri-
can field army
That practically all of these units
have completed the training for which
they were brigadied with the French
and which has Deen known some time.
General March in his interviews
with the press has frequently referred
to return of additional divisions TO the
American commander in chief.
81 has been thought, however. that
a considerable number of American
troops still are with the British third
and fourth armies and most military
officials were at loss to understand
why they had not been identified in
the capture of some cf the important
enemy positions overrun during the
day
Recent evidence Of the mettle of
Pershlng's forces made it certain, II
was believed, that if American divis-
ions We're with the allied troops their
locality tonight would lie at the apex
of the advance
The most interesting theory heard
was that the movement of American
divisions TO the sector assigned to the
first American army is under way, all
the divisions heretofore with the Brit
ish having been withdrawn for that
purpose and replaced by new units or
re-organized veteran regiments
brought up from billetS,
Concentrate at this time of the
United States divisions on the all
American front when the forward
movement of the more northern ar
Isies promises so much, could only
mean that General Foch has assigned
to General Pershing some important
task closely linked with the major
strategy in the opinion of experts
here. This may BE in the nature cf
a thrust in force to prevent the de-
tachment of reserves to stop the gap
in Picardy, or far reaching drive on
the German flank as soon as he has
got such a movement well under way

WAR ACTIVITIES

Plans of the American Library AS

book and library service in army and
navy hospitals in America and
France.
Exports of corn to Canada for feed
ing and manufacturing purposes have
been limited to those varieties and
grades (which are not suitable for
seed purposes.

sent with the troops, as at present
the need for these men is considered
greater on this side.
The Government is today the great
est employer of labor in the United
States not considering railroad en-
ployees. In normal times approx
mately 100000 civilians are employed,
and in the last year the number has
increased to 100000. In comparison
one steel corporation employs 300,-
900 men, and one railroad 100000.
"Stars and Stripes" is the name of
the weekly. newspaper being published

section. Practically the entire paper
is devoted to American news, includ-
ing daily radio>report of about l.
400 words supplied by the committee
on Public Information to the French
government.
In an announcement by the Food
Administration the cause for advance
in rice prices is attributed to the fact
that most rice mills have been run

ply the demand of 100000 bags for
American and allied fighting forces.
AS result the normal supply for
home consumption has been temper
arily reduced. Lower prices are fore
casted.

With Hundreds of Men
Learning to Fly,
Accidents are Few.

Records of the War Department
show that from the beginning of train
ing in June, 1917, to February %,
1918, the fatalaties at military avia-
ton fields in this country have been
81; 10 officers and 20 cadets killed in
training flights, and IL men killed in
unauthorized flights and ground ac-
cidents.
Since the training began in the u.
S., student aviators have flown consid-
erably more than 100000 miles. Hun
dreds of hitherto inexperienced men
have been learning to fly. Their early
flights are under the guidance of in
structors, and prior to these flights,
two or more months are spent in
ground work. There comes a time,
however, when every student aviator
must take his machine up alone, and
every precaution has been taken to
reduce the number of accidents and
safeguard the aviator in his solo
flights.

Weekly War News
From War Department, Washington, d. C.

ing on series of conferences cover
ing all industries which use large
quantities of fuel, with view to
learning the requirements of each
line during 1918. The industries
themselves are playing leading part
in these discussions. The aim of the
Fuel Administrator is to arrive at a
percentage of production which, UNI
der the circumstances, viii be salts
factory to the manufacturers and
their workmen, but which will not
represent a consumption of fuel for
the manufacture of supplies not need
ed during the current year.
The order which has been issued
limiting the use of fuel for the pro-
duction of window glass to 80 per cent
Of the amount manufactured in 1917
is the result of one of these confer
ences. A survey of the field indicat-
ed that while not more than 100000
boxes of window glass would be used
in 1918, comparative conditions were
likely to result in an overmanufacture
of at least 100000 boxes.
1t is through this system of limita-
ton, together with large economy in
the methods of using fuel, that the
Fuel Administration expects to sup
plement the production of coal this
year. 1t is hoped, as the railroads
strengthen their facilities, that it will
be possible to mine and transport a
larger quantity of coal this year than
last, but it is through these methods
of reducing consumption that repe-
tition of this years shortage is ex-
pected to be prevented
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1918-03-08
Food and Fuel Supplies
Are Short in Many
European Countries.

A Swiss commercial paper states
that there is a great shortage in coal
of all kinds, an insufficient supply of
wood for fuel, and small reserves in
oil and grease throughout Switzer-
land. Fresh eggs have disappeared
from the market. Dry vegetables are
becoming more scarce. A project to
manufacture flour from potatoes had
to be abandoned because sufficient
supplies of potatoes could not be Sc
cured.
In Holland coal and coke prices have
been advanced. In American terms,
the maximum terms of anthracite is
about $22 ton; coke, $40 ton; coal
briquets, $25 ton. Distribution is
carefully regulated by cards, in spec
flied quantities. The amount allowed,
especially to residences, is much
smaller than in peace times.
New French food regulations for
bid eating houses to serve or consume
fresh or packed butter otherwise than
in the preparation of food. Curdled
or sour milk are prohibited as well as
cream and specified kinds of cheese.
The making of pastries, biscuits and
confectionery is prohibited. Only in
dining cars, canteens, and railroad re-
freshmen stations may fresh or con-
densed milk or cream be served after
8 in the morning, by itself or mixed
with coffee, tea, or other prepare
ton. No solid foods may be served
between 8 and II in the morning, and
between 80 and $3.50 in the evening.
When the price of a meal exceeds
$l.20 the customer may be served
with not more than two dishes with
or without vegetables, or more than
one small loaf of ordinary bread. The
bread is limited to about 3A ounces.
All grain which may be used for max
ing bread is reserved for human food

Just this minute we are sowing
Seeds Of sorrow or of song.
Just this minute we are thinking
On the ways that lead to God,

Production of Rifles
And Ammunition Meets
All Requirements.

Rifle and cartridge production in
the United States has developed in
volume and in quality on a scale in
surfing the satisfactory equipment of
the army, according to statement
authorized by the Secretary of War.
To achieve the rifle and ammunition
production program the Government
has expended or has obligated itself
to expend during 10 months of war,
$500 100000, and 200 officers, 10000
men and 10000 women have been en-
gagged exclusively in the manufacture
of rifles and ammunition. Two gov
eminent plants and three privately
owned plants are engaged in making
riues and one government plant and
nine privately owned plants are en-
gagged in cartridge manufacture. Or
dinance experts in this country and in
Europe are in agreement that the
United States army is being equipped
with two of the best three rifles in
the world.
