Washington, Sept. 18.-No restric-
lions have been placed on the manu-
facture of soft drinks and none will
be until an investigation shows that
such a step is absolutely necessary
for the successful prosecution of the
war. Fuel Administrator Garfield
announced today in response to an
inquiry by Senator Hitchcock, of Ne
braska.
II can assure you that in so far as
soft drink manufacturers are con-
cerned." Fuel Administrator Garfield
said, "they have been placed under
no definite restrictions and will not
be until after the matter has been
most carefully considered from all
it's angles, and then only after such
restriction is considered absolutely
necessary for the successful prosecu-

G T. POLICE.
Attempt to Rescue Soldiers Under
Arrest.-Oficers Open Fire.

Norfolk, Sept. 21-Between 800
and 400 negro civilians, headed by a
score of negro soldiers from Camp
Alexander, tonight attacked the Sec
ond precinct police station in an effort
to rescue the two soldiers arrested by
the police on the charge of robbing
the cash register of a photographers
studio. More than half of the win
dows of the station were smashed by
flying bullets, bricks and bottles be-
fore the officers retalitated by open
ing fire with pistols and riot guns.
Ten negro soldiers and civilians
were shot down in the exchange OF
bullets before the arrival of reserves
from the central station and naval
guards gave the police sufficient man
power to quell the rioters and arrest
the ring leaders.
Police Sergt. White was the only
officer injured. He vas struck in the
temple by a bottle. the crowd hurled
paving stones at the ambulance carry
ing the officer to the hospital, par
TALLY wrecking the vehicle.
Several of the wounded at the hos
pita1 were said tonight to be in a
precarious condition.
The trouble was precipitated when
the officers dubbed the two negro SOL
diers arrested on the charge Of rob-
berry. They were resisting arrest,
urged to the attack by companions.
The crowd quickly swelled to a mob
and followed the officers to the sta
ton, which is located in the negro
district.

p. E. ROWELL ENDS OWN LIFE.
Soldier From Scotia Shoots Self in
Head While Attending Court.

Rock Hill, Sept. 20.-Private 2. +.
Rowell, of Scotia, Hampton county
stationed at Camp Sewer, who was
here attending federal court, TOOK
his own life at 10 o'clock Wednesday
evening at the residence of J. Il.
McManus. coroner. of York county,
by shooting himself in the head with
a revolver. Rowell had been staying
at the McManus home since he arrlv-
ed in the city a day or two ago. Mrs.
McManus and B. B. Blanton, a gov
eminent inspector, also a boarder at
the McManus home, were the hrst
persons to enter the room in which
Rowell fired the fatal shot and ne
was dying when they reached his side.
J. NJ. Youngblood, chief of police,
and G. C. Clyburn, patrolman, were
in the patrol wagon in front of the
McManus home waiting for RoWell
when he fired the shot which ended
his life. The officers had been to the
Aragon mill and found Rowell and
another soldier by the roadside, COM
ing to the city. The soldiers were
asked to ride with the officers and
did so. Arriving at the McManus
home, Rowell told the chief that if he
would wait in the street until he
could 90 to his room he would re-
turn and ride into the business Sec
ton of the city. The officers agreed
and sat in the machine waiting for
him until some n from the house
came out and told them that RoWell
had killed himself.
Rowell left a brief note on the
table in his room, asking that his
relatives be notified of his death, and
SAYING that he was driven to the act
on account of trouble with his wife.
Letters were also found which show
that Rowell had probably been pay
ing attention to other women. One
of these is a letter from a woman IN
Greenyille.

PRINCIPLE AGAINST PELF

While the United States is prepar-
ing to take up the Fourth Liberty
Loan, a far larger issue Of bonds than
any previous one, the Imperial Ger
man Minister Of Finance and the
Reichsbank are working out plans for
new war loan there.
1t is interesting to note the differ
ence Of method here and in Germany.
Ofhcial circles in the enemy country
are said to recognize that recent mill
tary reverses will make it difhcvlt to
float the new loan Therefore theat-
neal organizations and societies of
artists have been ordered to further
the loan propaganda by plays and
songs. Also, as with previous loans,
business and commercial houses will
have to take allotments of the new
bonds. Workers will have TO make
subscriptions, and out of each weeks
pay envelope certain amount will be
kept to pay for the bonds. In other
words, Germany will raise the money
for its new loan by conpulsion. The
powers Of the government will be ex-
erted to take the money.
The United States is not organized
on those lines. Here the government
asks for subscriptions to its Fourth
Liberty Loan, bat there will be no
compulsion about X. Whoever lends
his money to the government will do
so because he believes in the right
eougness of Americas war and wants
to help win a victory by every means
within his power There viii be no
orders issued to banks and business
firms to take up certain amount of
the bonds.
No worker will be compelled to sub.
scribe, regardless of his domestic
problems and financial condition.

liant victories against tbs AussrIans
AL American lovers Of liberty would
end pleasure In reading the lives Of
Gariba1di and Csvotr. Some day we
may have the equal of Dante or
Miehaelangslo, but VIC Americans can
search cur history In vain for such
now.
Pages might ba written about the
victories and triumpha Of all the ma
tionaiitiss about which some of US
speak in derision. When we do so
seriously we only reflect on ourselves.
That n Itself IL not important. 1t Is
only when our actions directly inter
!ers with our military effectiveness
that they cause real concern. Every
time q foreign-boTn soldier is insulted
with derisive epithets he becomes
more Of an alien than ever, less en-
thusiastic about fighting for the peo-
pie who deride him, and more than
ever willing to listen TO those who
would use him for tool IN causing
trouble.
The foreign-born soldier in our army
can be made a great asset or a great
liability. He can fight as well as any
man il he Is given proper opportunity
for training and is made to feel that ne
can enjoy the fruits Of victory with
the rest of US.
To fail to understand and get along

In our army are men who come
