Reign of Terror.

Amsterdam. Aug. 1S.-Throughout
Russia there is areign of terror. with
the Bolsheviki trying to maintain
their power by spreading fear. At the
bottom Of the trouble is the disaffec-
ton OF peasants, who are refusing to
yield grain at the low fixed price ex-
cept In exchange for manufactured
articles at an equally low price, which
the Bolsheviki are unable to provide.
Expeditions sent into villages to force
the peasants to yield grain result in
constant killings. the soldiers not dar-

force. Last week the peasants killed

Today's List, First Under
Innovation, Contains
376 Names.

The new system of public announce
ment of casualties In the American
ExpeditionaryN Forces went into effect
last night. The first list to be distri-
buted by the Postoffice Department,
through an agreenleE. with tho War
Department, is released for publica-
ton in this mornings papers. The
list carries 376 names.
There will be no delay in private
notification of relatives of officers and
men reported in the daily casualty
lists received from Gen. Pershlng as
a result Of the change in the muethCG
Of publication. This official statement
was made by the Committee OH Pub
lie Information last night.
As soon as it Is possible to compa,e c
the names, which are reported by
cable to the Adjutant Generals Office,
statistical division, the usual private
telegraphic notification will be made
to relatives.
There will be a delay OF from three
to five days in the public announce
ments of casualties in the daily press.
This was made necessary when the
several press associations of the coun-
try notified the War Department that
the transmission by them of the re-

terfered with the transmission of
other war news that there was danger
Of seriously deferring either one or

master General accepted the RESPONSE
casualty lists daily by telegraph
divided into three zones, centering at
Washington. Chicago and San Fran
cisco. At these points the complete
lists now are being duplicated by the
postmaster and mailed to every news
paper.
To prevent unequal press competi-
ton. the lists are sent subject to re-
lease dates. The newspapers are un-
der pledge to make no use of ;he in
formation contained in these lists
prior to the release notice dates. 7 nat
is, they cannot take advantage OF this
advance information to worry rela-
tives by applicat ons for photographs
and other material for stories about
the soldiers whose names are contain
ed in the lists.
However, it has been ruled, that II
a relative. after receiving private
notification from the War Department,
voluntarily gives this news to the
press. it may be published without
violating the agreement with respect
to the advance release casualty lists.
But no mention of the list on which
such a name is carried can be made,
and no material can be taken from a

the list is automatically released.

The Sugar Situation.

That the people may know the
reasons for the rigid restrictions
on the sale and use of sugar by
the Food Administration, | make
public these facts:
There is available for the Unit
ed States from this time to Jan.
l. 1919, only 100000 tons of
sugar. Reduced to pounds and
people it is only 3l1a pounds of
sugar for each person for six
mantl.sriGiteA could be usad
for family purposes. But a large
per centage will be used for the
manufacture of necessities.
The families will be restricted
to 25 pounds for canning purposes
and then the supply will be short.
No person can buy sugar for canning
purposes eroept on permit from the
County U. S. Food administrator.
After our merchants have sold the
amount allotted them they car
not get more.
Housewives should be careful
not to use the allotment early in
the canning season. Can with.
out the use of sugar and use sub.
stitutes.
Any person guilty of boarding
is in grave danger of heavy pen.

you have in your possession more
than a thirty-day supply based or

once turn it over to the Food Ad'
ministration. If it must be seiz'
ed it will be confscated and the
hoarder punished.
The same rule applies to flour
