WASHINGTON OFFICIALS SEE IN

OF THE GERMANS UN-
TIL WINTER

Washington, Aug. 20.-Interpreted
at first as a local operation intended
primarily to enable the allies to retain
complete possession of the initiative
on the Picardy front, the rapidly de
yeloped success OF the French east Of
the Disc tonight was accepted by many
military officials here as a definite
and fully prepared effort having a
specific part in the larger strategic
plans Of General Foch.
atest alviCes tonight describing
the advance of the French tenth army
for two and one half miles on a front
OF more than fifteen miles was taken
by experts here as conclusive evidence
that the major plan of the allied gen.
eralissimo the inauguration OF which
came with the attack on the right
flank of the Rheims-Soissons salient
is far more comprehensive than has
been supposed in most circles. It is
believed now to include a series or
actions which will occupy every mo-
ment until the arrival of winter rains
makes the plateaus OF Picardy and the
plains OF Flanders impossible for large
troop movements.
Most observers agreed that the I'M

DEALERS MAY GO BELOW
PRICES ON PRICE LISTS

Under the present market condi-
tons, prices on some commodities are
on the decline, and in order that mer-
chants may deal with competition,
permission has been granted them
from Washington to sell their staples
below the low prices published in the
Fair Price Lists.
Prices may go as low as the mer-
chants may wish, but if they go above
the high prices on the Fair Price
Lists, penalization will follow. Revo-
cation of license is the popular punish
ment for profteeIinS, and the En-
forcement Division of the Food Ad-
ministration expects to apply it to all
firms charging excessive prices during
the coming year.
The wholesale prices of all of the
staples have been kept from soaring
by the efforts of the Food Administra-
ton during the past year, and seven of
them, including potatoes, flour and
sugar have actually declined in price.

FOOD PROFITEERS AND
VIOLATIONS PAY PENALTY

Upon a report by government in
spectors, F. B. Ives company of Osh-
kosh were brought before the Enforce
ment Division of the U. S. Food Ad-
ministration for Wisconsin on a
charge of profteering.
At the hearing it was emphasized
that the firm have shown a careless
attitude toward food regulations, have
not kept themselves informed of the
rules and have made overcharges on
various articles.
BY the order of Herbert Hoover on
December IL, their license is to be sus-
pended for 8 weeks from December 16
to January upon all licensed articles.
Permission is given to them, however,
to fill outstanding contracts up to and
including December 16 and to dispose
of any and all petishable goods which
they have on hand.
The Betsy Ross company of Chica-
so, ILL.,, were brought before the En-
forcement Division of the U. S. Food
Administration for Wisconsin for ship
ping sugar out of their own state to
their branch store at Sheboygan. AS
there was no sugar obtained by the
company from the Wisconsin sugar
division and as the company in Chi
cago was before the Illinois Food Adj
ministration for violation of food
regulation, the case was turned over
10 the Illinois Enforcement Division
for them TO handle both infractions.

kenosha- Radically Conservative

Kenosha has tremendous amount of
community spirit. This spirit under
went severe strain recently when the
influenza hit the city an especially harb
blow. But up it hobs in the form of
novel suggestion of the Kenosha "Daily
News" thst home nursing should be
taught in the public schools to every
girl of suitable age.
That will strike good many people
outside of Kenosha as radical sugges
ton. The people there are accustomed
to radical suggestions, however, and
have formed taste for them. But is i,
such radical suggestion after all? Is
it not rather A. conservative ibea, some
what of return to the old fashioned
notion that a girl should be equipped
first of all to be a home worker and
guardian of the family?
The influenza epidemic exposed the
shameful shortage everywhere of
working knowledge of nursing princi
pies anu uleIHOUS. COPlC WCIC li ooo-
perate need of more help and more
knowledge At time they would have
paid any price for help. Even the orbin-
arily, most devout worshipers of the,
"God of Things as They Are" aband-
oned their religion in the face of the
plague. But forgetting IS one of the
easiest things people DO, and remember.
ing is one of the hardest.
Certainly, some permanent good
ought to come out - the terrible cpl

lives yearly, the lesson would of have
been worth the cost.

They aren't still fighting over there.
but they ARE still eating.
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1918-12-20

To the need of the peoples and ma
tons rescued from military bondage
by the allied victory must now be add
ed the need of the people of the CEN
trial empires, impoverished by the ter
rible demands of war.
"Woe to the conqueredv
Yes; but the very spirit that sent
America into the war forbids that we
disregard the suffering and dire dis
tress of a conquered enemy.
We have suffered yet but little, while
the rest of the world has hungered and
thirsted, has bled and died.
Shall we not go on to the full meas
ure of our great strength-shall we
not meet the full demand of our moral
obligation? SO only can we meet the
full measure of our ideal. So only can
the world, cropping for symbol, real
lie the true meaning of democracy.
Here then are the things the Red
Cross must do:
l. While our men are in service
overseas it must stand in instant
readiness, as the emergency reserve
of the army and navy.
II. AS our men come home, it must
be ready to cooperate in every way in
ministering to their necessity and
comfort.
III. Both overseas and at home 1T
must be ready for hospital service to
the wounded and convalescent, and
must carry on it's reconstruction work
among the permanently crippled and
MANNED.
w. 1t must face the ever widening
ministry to the families and friends of
our soldiers and sailors, providing
them with counsel, encouragement,
protection and if need be, with mate
rial aid.
v. 1t must stand ever equipped for
the sudden emergencies of pestilence,
disaster, storm and calamity-and be
ready as always for instant and eff
cfent relief.
VI. 1t must carry on with increas-
ing vigor and scientific determination
It's nght against the eVer-preSent
scourge of tuberculosis.
VII. Above all, it must face the fact
that America is the one of all the
great nations of the earth that is prac-
tically untouched and uneXhausted by
the ravages of war. That with the
end of the fighting there remains the
vastest problem the world has ever
faced-that of carrying humanity
through the coming winter and spring
and bringing it up to the relief of the
harvests of 1919. There is not enough
food in the world now to provide for
normal consumption. With the best
that can be accomplished by way of
organization and administration, there
will be widespread privation and suf-
fering.
The war has left behind it hideous
legacy Of want, suffering and distress.
There is work to be done that calls
for millions of consecrated hands and
hearts.
The Red Cross therefore calls you
to enlist for all this supreme service
to humanity. Answer the Christmas
roll call.
All that is needed is heart and

COMMEND STATE
SUGAR DIVISION
Americans Save 775,OO0 Tons of
!. Sugar During July, August,
September, October and
November.

The sugar division of the II. S..
Food Administration for Wisconsin
were praised in a letter written by
Charles Hatfield of the United States
Food Administration to Magnus Sven
son, Food Administrator for Wiscon-
sin, for their efficient service in adj
ministering the sugar orders. The
total savings in Wisconsin are not yet
known, but the total amount con-
served by the American people during
July, August, September, October, and
November is 775,O0O tons. This in
cludes the sugar conserved by the ,e-
strictions placed on confectionery and
soft drink products
The object of the Food Adr1inistra-
ton in asking for economy during
those months was to ensure supply
of sugar that would De adequate to
meet the needs of the Allies who
would have to depend on the same
sources as the United States as long
as the war lasted. 1t was necessary
to take precautions to have a GER
tainty of sufficient sugar throughout
the year.
With the signing of the armistice,
the situation was Immediately
changed, and the Food Administration
removed the restrictions as soon
afterwards as possible. The Cuban
crop, the large surplus of western
beet sugar and Louisiana cane make
it possible for us to return to our
normal use of sugar.
