FOOD ADMINS
TRAITOR ON JOB
Five Denison Men Compelled to Re.
turn Flour to Omaha-Purchased
Without Substitutes.
DEALERS HAVE LICENSE REvoKD.
Notice Sent to All Those known to
Possess Excess Amount Of Flour
on Hand to Return Same.

County Food Administrator Frank
Woolston is right on the job and is see
ing to it that the regulations as made
! by the federal food commission are.
carried out to the letter by the peo-:
pie of Crawford county. 1t came to
the attention of Mr.. Woolston last
week that several DenisOn families
were receiving shipments of flour from
Omaha and he at once made an inves-
tigation. He found that five families
here had received shipments of from
one to five sacks of -four, each from
the General Mercantile company of
Omaha. between February 18th and
18th, without having purchased the
necessary substitutes. The families
were requested to return the shipment
to the Omaha concern. The General
Mercantile company, it might be stat
ed, has had it's license to sell flour re-
voked and will not handle any more
-four during the period of the war.
Mr.. Woolston informs the Review,
that he has just received an order
which will permit farmers to ex.
change wheat for flour at the mills
without purchasing substitutes. How
ever. farmers are limited to but tHo-
sacks at time. - @
Notices have been sent our to those
known to have an excess amount hf
flour on hand and scores Of sacks arA
being returned to the stores from
which it was purchased. Mr.. Wool
ston will not stand for the people of
Crawford county boarding food and
is making every effort to locate any
excess supplies. @

JUDGE WADE
A HARD HITTER
Judge Martin Wade Gave No Quarters
to the UnIoyaI American Citizens
mo Room for Traitors
$4,000 FOR KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
Said He Had No Patience With Man
Who Is Not Willing to Help
Win This War.

Judge Martin J. Wade of Iowa City
federal judge Of the southern district
Of Iowa, addressed large audience
at the opera house last evening in the
interests of the Knights of Columbus
war activity fund. At the close Of the
meeting subscriptions to this fund
were asked for and something over
$2,600.00 was realized. Judge Wade
made an eloquent address and drove
home to every man, woman and child
in the audience the great peril which
confronts US at this time.
l.. w. Powers acted as chairman OF
the meeting and in calling the meeting
to order explained briefly it's purpose.
He called upon Judge Conner to intro
dace the speaker inasmuch as he and
Judge Wade had served in congress
together and have been acquaintance
for years.
In opening his address Judge Wade
stated that he was here to talk war.
which was anything but pleasant
subject, to speak on.
If tho men of this country had fifty
per cent of the pep and energy shown
by the women our country would be
safer than it is tonight" he said. "This
is the most tragic hour in the history
of the world and it is now time that
we get down to brass tacks and be
honest with ourselves. I have no
patience with the man who wants to
discuss the causes of this war for we
are in it now. II there is a man in
this country who down in his heart
wants the kaiser to win this war he
does not belong here. II the kaiser
wins this war l don't want to live
here"
Judge Wade stated that this is not
the war of France or England, but
our war The United States is fight
ing in its own defense If we had not
entered this contest in time with
France, Italy and England for our al
lies we would have been crushed by
the iron hand of the hun. Germany
would have crushed these nations and
then the kaiser drunk with power and
ambition, with his foot on the necks
Of those people. where would his eyes
have rested but on America. Some
people tell us that we are three thous-
and miles from the conflict and how
could they come to the United States
or enter any Of our eastern ports.
Germany knows the game. With our
southwestern border occupied by a
so called republic-Mexico-a enc
mics of the United States, Germany

HOPED to accomplish much Germany
admits that long ago she sought tt
join with Mexico and take away part
of our territory. This evidence may
now be found in the archives of our
state department at Washington. In
this attempt the kaiser showed his ig
norance Of America. He should have
known that before he could take one
square foot OF territory from the Unit
ed States he would have to over the
dead bodies of our men and even our
WOmanhOOd.
We are today fighting our own bat
ties and isn't it splendid we have these
gallant nations, England, France and
Italy, for our allies If not fought
now it would have come later. He
with the prairie fires that years ago
swept the prairies of the middle west.
Judge Wade explained that these fires
were fought with back fires and that
the United States was starting a back
fire in France to stop that which is
sweeping this way. There is only
one possible result. We must win this
war. How are we to do it Only a
few things are Requirement, money.
food and spirit Spirit perhaps is the
most important and with this you
have the other essentials. We have
the men and isn't it splendid to see
them marching by following Old
Glory. Isn't it splendid to see the
mothers bear up under the burden?
Money, of course, is necessary and
Uncle Sam will have this too. Do
you know that there is not nation
today that we can borrow from? Ev-
cry solvent nation on this old earth
owes us and we are the bankers OF the
world today The money necessary
to carry on this war must come from
the people-from you and l. Why
shouldn't we loan this money to our
government. Do you know of a coun-
try in the world whose policies have
been guided by kindness and gener-
Osity such as ours
A great many of our people are hav-
ing an examination with their con-
science over the relations with their
country. l thank God that it has been
my privilege to put some rebels where
they will not SOW the seed of discon-
tentment for some while.
Your government is asking you for
loan until Uncle Sam can get his
hand on the throat of the kaiser. The
United States allowed people to come
here without becoming citizens and
enjoy the freedom and prosperity of
this great land of ours. When | see
a man pessimistic about this war I
wish that he had stayed across the
water. Thousands have come from
the Fatherland seeking a place to
build their homes, or course there
were heart ties but the United States
is their country now and realize that
this is arnati0n Yoyth lighting and

man who sees nothing in the United

The men taken into the natiOna
army at this, time assembled at the
court house Monday afternoon at
O'Clock, where they reported to the
local exemption board. Each mans
name was properly registered and al
were given a small piece OF bunting
to wear on the lapel of their coats
Benjamin G. Patrick, of Ute, was ap
pointed by the board to take charge
of the men while enroute and turn
them over to the military authorities
at Camp Dodge. Edmund P. Klinker
OF Denison, was appointed to assist
him.
Men Royalty Entertained.
During their short stay in Denison
the men were royalty entertained
through the efforts of the Commercial
club. The club rooms were thrown
open to them throughout the afternoon
and many of them enjoyed the pool
and billiard tables.
Sheriff Cummings, chairman of the
local board. took the men to the Mil
HEX cafe at $50. where they We're
served bounteous supper. and at Z
o'clock all congregated at the Com
mercial club rooms for a smoker and
brief entertainment.
Clement J. WEIGH was in charge at
the club rooms where scores of bust
ness men had gathered for a social
hour with the young men. Mr.. WEIGH
first introduced Rep. P. J. Klnker,
who made an address to the boys. Mr..
klinker congratulated them that they
had been selected by their country to
uphold it's honor and Crawford coun-
ty would expect them to do their best.
He plead with them to come home big
ger and better men and return as clean
at heart as they were leaving. He i'm
pressed upon them that those remain
ing here at home would also be doing
their best with subscribing to the Lib
erty loans. Red Cross and Y. NJ. c. A.
and that the present record would be
upheld and old Crawford would "go
over the top" on every occasion.
Senator G.. l.. Caswell was next in
troduced and told the young men that
it appeared to him it was no time for
sob stuff for instead of feeling sorry
over their departure they were to be
envied. Out of over 1900 young men
in Crawford county they had been Sc
lected as Glass | "a" men, a position
which all could not claim. Mr.. Cas-
we'll stated that they might expect to
be homesick and might even cry for
their mothers, but it would not be
many weeks before they would enjoy
army life.
Gail Richardson was then intro
duced and he expressed himself as
proud of the fact that he had been Sc
lected to go. He stated for himself
and in behalf of the other young, men
that the people OF Crawford county
need not worry but what they would
put the best there was in them into
this war and they expected those here
at home to do the same.
Chas. X Meyers made few brief
remarks, expressing the desire that

DR.. R. l. WILBUR
IN SPLENDID TALK
President Of Leland Stanford Uni
versity Spoke to Large Gathering
Thursday Afternoon.
NOT A BRIGHT PICTURE PAINTED
No Assurance United States Will
Win-We Must Al Be Willing to
Make Sacrifices.

The necessity of conserving food
stuffs during the war the United States
is now engaged in was driven home tc
the people of this community by DR.
II. L. Wilbur, president of Leland Stan
ford university, at an address deliv
cred Thursday afternoon at the opera
house. The business houses of the
city closed during the lecture to per-
nit all attending and there were many
present from various sections OF the
county. So we'll did the speaker Inn
press upon his audience the fact that
food will win this great war that prac.
tically every household in Denison will
observe the "eat less edicts Of the
food administration.
DR.. Wilbur was introduced by Carl
F.. Kuehnle, who stated that the speak
er was born and reared at Boonsbor-
ough, Iowa. where he lived until eight
years of age. In opening DR.. Wilbur
said 1t was always a pleasure for him
to visit his native state OF Iowa. He
said Iowa was perhaps the greatest
food producing state in the union, but
that the people of this state had not
yet taken hold Of the problem before

critical year OF the war and unless the
people of America get behind the work
before them to man it will be lost
and the Hun will be at our threats,
was the warning lie gave his Denison
audience, The United States cannot
do much in military way this year.
explained DR.. Wilbur 1t will take
months to organize our man force,
equip them for service abroad and
transport them to France. However.
the people of this country have large
part to perform and unless it is done
the war will be lost for the United
States as we'll as our brave allies. He
stated that it was up to us to supply
fo0dstuffs for England. France and
Italy so they can hold the western
front until our brave men can get
there and drive the Germans back
across their own borders and bring
peace again to the world. This west.
ern line Of trenches is all that stands
between us and destruction. said the
speaker, and this line must be held.
Here at home the people are in the
trenches the same as abroad. In the
trenches to furnish food for our allies
and their people and to do this will
require a little sacrifice on the part OF
our people.
DR.. Wilbur did not paint bright pic

ture as to the outcome or the struggle
abroad. He stated that there is ne
assurance that the United States viii
win this war. 1t is race between Ger
many and the United States. German,
with that wonderful military machine
that has taken years to perfect is
massing her hOrdes along that western
battle front and hopes to win vic
tory before the United States can gel
her men in France. Russia has taker
some three and half million men out
of the front line trenches. releasing
that many German soldiers who are
now being massed on the western
frCnt. 1t will take the United States
two and a half years to put back into
the field the men that Russia has taken
out of the war. The people of the mid
die west do not appreciate the full
meaning of this war. They are not
awake to the situation. This condi
ton is probably due to the fact that it
has been some ten months since we
declared war and as yet we have not
lost a single man in a real battle. We
do not understand modern warfare
We do not see it as an engine of de-
struction. DR.. Wilbur stated that it
will probably take the long casualty
lists to fully awaken us to the real
fact that we are engaged in the great.
est war the world has ever known. 1t
is up to us to NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
the war is lost.
DR.. Wilbur stated that the people Of
Iowa are beginning to wake up and
are starting to take an active inter.
est. He stated that this war is as
muc, the war Of the people in the mid.
die west as it IS the war of the people
Of France, Italy and England. 1t is a
war of democracy against kings and
emperors with the advantage at the
present time in favor of monarchies.
'There is no more chance of revO.
luton in Germany than Of the I. w.
VS. getting control of the United
States" declared DR.. Wilbur. We
must back the men in the trenches in
France with wheat. meat and sugar.
That food has got to come from us and
unless the American people change
their habits and glimpse the deadly
earnestness of the crisis we are going
to lose the war before we get started
by failing to back up our men in the
trenches.
The speaker gave some insight of
the atrocities that the Germany army
has perpetrated since the outbreak
OF the war and said that one-half of
them are unprintable: These atroci-
ties are ordered by the military lead
ers of the central powers with view
of terrcrizing the allies.
When the commission sent by Pres
ident Wilson to investigate conditions
in the battle torn district of France
arrived they were told by the military
leaders to report to the people Of the
Uniteu States that the western line
would be held until they could get men
there if food was sent over. The
length Of this war depends upon the
time it takes US to get into it.
He told of the commission visiting
General Pershing and his report of
the United States soldiers who were
