sAMM|ES RUN A PAPER
Lieut.. w. K. Michael Is Paris Repre-
sentative of the "Stars and
Stripes"

A letter from First Lieut.. William
K. Michael, formerly linotype oper-
ator for the Kansas City Star, advises
he has been appointed Paris represen-
tative of the Stars and Stripes, q
weekly newspaper published in the in
terest of the American ExpeditiOnary
Force. It a.. directed and edited by
United States soldiers. The first issue
was to have been published February
1, the Paris presses of the Daily Mail
were to be used. The plan was to
publish an s-page paper and the frst
issue was to be 10000 copies.
Profits derived from advertising
are to be used in providing Injuries
for the men in uniform. An announce
men in the Paris edition Of the New
York Herald Of January 22 says the
reason for the new publication Is "a
desire to provide the sxPeditiOnary
forces with all possible means Of sx-
pressing their views and develop .
spirit Of solidarity for victory"

GROCERS AND MARKETS
WHO SELL SUBSTITUTES
NOT IN OFFICIAL LIST
$3.50 RULE TOBE ENFORCED
Two Plttsburg ViOlatOrs Already
Reported and Other Points
May Be Involved in the
Scramble

Grocers and markets who think
that the government will not rigidly
enforce the food rulings regarding
the 5000 basis of selling wheat -four
substitutes, are apt to have a rude
awakening Two violators in Pittsburg
have already been reported, and II
convicted the dealers will face $10,-
900 fine, or four years Imprisonment.
Food inspectors are sluething
around and merchants are apt to be
caught mapping, If they don't watch
out. 1t is said that one firm in the
county has been going so far as to in
clude canned corn as one of the Sub
stitutes," which is not one of the items
in the official list permitted. But the
buyer and the seller take equal
chances of punishment for evading
the food orders.
There is only one list Of substi-
tutes and when customers buy "a
pounds Of flour, they must also buy
an equal amount selected from the
following list, and no other:
Barley flour, buckwheat flour, rice
flour, rice, corn meal, corn flour, corn
starch, corn grits, oat meal, rolled
oats, faterita flours and meals, potato
flour and hominy.
It is comparatively easy for the
housewife to make her selection from
the above list, and they are meeting
the situation in cheerful spirit.
Walter Innes, the Kansas Food Ad-
minstrator, Wichita, requests that all
infringements of the $3.50 order on
the part of dealers be promptly re-
ported to him, and prosecutions will
follow. In this patriotic movement
to conserve the nations supply Of
wheat flour, the strictest penalties OF
the law will be invoked against the
few, here and there who disregard the
order.

DELAYED MAIL TO SOLDIERS
CAUSED By WAR DEPARTMENT

Washington, Feb. 18-War depart
nient regulations primarily have been
responsible for delay in delivering
letters from home to American forces
in France, Second Assistant Post
master General Praeger today told
the senate postal committee.
Distribution Of mail, he said, Is
largely in the hands of army officers
and for military reasons it is held up
sometimes ten days or two weeks
after reaching France before pOstOf-

forwarding addresses by military
units.

THE EXPORT SURPLUS is
NOW COMPLETELY EX-
HAUSTED
LETTER FR0MNITTER Times
List of Substitutes Can Not be
Added to or Amended Ex-
cept by Authority from
Washington

County Food Administrator H. A.
LeRue receivaed a letter yesterday
from Walter p. Innes which strongly
emphasized the seriousness Of the
wheat shortage in the United States,
The letter is as follows:
To County Food Administrators:
Mr.. Hoover has made an urgent ap-
peal to everyone to give the follow
ing subject earnest attention:
"The wheat situation with ref
ence to the immediate future is i'm
minent in that our exportable surplus
is now completely exhausted and oui
ability to supply the Allies for the
newt six months is going to turn pri-
marily on the results of the program
of conservation which is being inaug'
urated. There is no advantage in
holding the 1917 crop other than that
which is necessary for seeding pur'
poses, as the price Of wheat is OF
course q fixed quantity and will moi
be changed for this crop. Under these
conditions it will be desirable to Sc
cure the movement of wheat from the
hands Of the farmers into the chan
nels of trade as expeditiously as pos
sible so as to keep the wheat moving
toward Europe. If there is anything
you can do in order to promote thi:
movement so that it may be carried
out before the roads break up in YOU
state, it will be rendering a patriotic
service under the conditions in which
the patton now finds ITSELF"
Please make it clear to the retail
ers that the list of substitutes n
printed in the war Emergency restric
tions cannot be added to or amended
except by authority from Washington
This applies whether the dealer is
cooperative organization, elevator
mill or store, in line with Rule No.
issued by this office.
Milling Division Circular No.
also permits exchange with farmers
without insisting on farmers taking
substitutes. Law Department point!
out all licensed mills are forbidden b!
special rule No. to deliver to an!
person q supply of wheat flour il
excess of his household requirement.
for the next thirty days.
w. p. INNES,
u. S. Food Administrator for Kansas
P. S.-Referring to Circular No.
Bran and shorts positively must no
be sold to consumers as wheat floul
substitutes. The Circular applies onl!
to millers sales to wholesale jobbers
