County Food Administrator, DR.. A; N.
Wood.
Enclosed you will find form certi-
ficate to be used by all retail mer-
chants in your county for the sale of

ted sugar for canning unless they have

I am instructed by the United
States Food Administration officials at
Washington to use every precaution
to conserve our supply of sugar When
not purchased for canning purpose es,
sugar must not be sold in quantity
more than five pounds for city trade
and ten pounds for country trade.
The person who buys sugar under

er amount of sugar than otherwise ell.
titled to is IA traitor to the Government.
If You find cases Of this nature You
should arrest such guilty parties on

New York Aug. 13.-The reluctance
of John H. Tener president of the
National League, to get his organiza-
tion mixed up in the worlds series
this year may be traced to a pair of
reasons first, patriotic belief in a
policy of adhering strictly to the
governments wish to make every
mau within the draft age work or
fight; secondly, a dislike for Ban
Johnson and his methods which
would hardly permit Tener to sit at
the council table as the National com
mission prepared the rules for the
forthcoming contests,

lines with the proceeds donated al

HAVE
BETRAYED NO TRUST
Woman Writer Recently In
Russia Defends Ruling
Faction of Country

| New York, Feb. 22.-ffThe Bolshe-
Wiki have betrayed no one; rather the
German people have betrayed the Boil
sheviki, which is the same as saying the
German people have betrayed the world,
for the Bolsheviki are doing more than
anything to bring about world stabil-
ity."
Miss Bessie Beatty, writer from
the San Francisco Bulletin, said this in
New York today. She has just returned
from trip, which she characterized as
trip around the world in war time. -
She left San Francisco before the I'm
tied States declared war and she has
been travelling ever since. She was in
Petrograd when the Bolsheviki over
threw Kerensky. She has visited the
Russian front.
Miss Beatty has deep rooted eonvic.
tion that the Bolsheviki will vet con-
vince the German people they have been
betrayed by the German militarists and
that the German people, in turn, have
betrayed the Bolsheviki. That the Boil
shoviki will defend Petrograd she is
certain.
"It is hard to explain to anyone in
this country just what the Bolsheviki
amount to in Russia, - Miss Beatty said.
But it is my belief they are doing
more good in the world than anything.
Germany's defeat lies in the hands of
this faction, [ believe, for eventually it
is possible they will supply the wedge
that will overthrow German militarism.
cit is hard for me to believe that
the German troops are marching against
Petrograd, for l had come to believe
that the Germans would not fight Rus
sia again. was of the belief that the
Bolsheviki propaganda and events in
Russia were having an effect in Ger
many. 1 imagine that's the way the
Russian people feel about it, and I
believe there is the same sort of feeling
with the German army. Great events are
in Germany. Some day, L
truly believe, the war lords OF Prussia
will be overthrow"
Miss Beatty told Of a talk she had
with a man in Stockholm. He acted as
an Interpreter for her and when the
talk was over he whispered to her that
he was a German on leave and would
have to return soon to the fro3fs
81 don t want to go back and fight
the Americans and Englishmen, she
says he told her. "After the war
want to go to America, but 1 suppose
the people viii hate u.s.
81 told him we wouldn Il; that we
merely hated the Prussian military sys-
tenn and felt sorry for the German peo- |
pie, - she said - l asked him why he
went back if he didn't want to fight |
and he told me that in Germany if the
men didn't fight they were shot"

ice today, who delivered a terrific in
dictment of Germany's crimes against
international law.
Chief Justice John B. Winslow of
the Wisconsin supreme court warned
that a Prussian victory would make a
German dependency of the United
States and practically the entire world.
Facing this, the most tremendous
challenge to human liberty in history,
he declared, 1--WE have made our choice
the only choice possible to a nation of
free men and we must not fail.
Dr.. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of
Stanford University, told the 1900 Ma
tional Security League delegates in the
congress that the "fierce," hot fires
of war are now forging new America.
America has been soft and has
to hardeni" he declared. "We are
suffering from our prosperity and now
are having to face the ugly, hard facts
of the war. Six months from now we
will be a changed nation"
Justice Winslow, voicing the same
plea to clay aside luxury and softness
of life so long as this great contest
for humanity rages,"P thanked God
that America s prosperity had not
buried its manhood.
"We are not, and never have been

Washington, Feb 22.-Austria g in
ternal situation grows constantly moro
desperate, according to advices reach
ing here today
The socialists, the Czechs and the
Slavs are becoming bolder in their de.
sire and demands and there is a grow.
ing feeling among the populace that
Austria should cast off the ties that
bind her to the Germans.
That the emperor, however is in

fest from his reported threats to dis
solve the reichsrat and put into effect
an iron handed rule if the provisional
budget is not supported. The socialist
demand for opening peace negotiations
with the United States is by far the
strongest step the liberals have taken
and there is in the whole situation an
element Of revolution. This, though, is
as yet not sufficiently mature to indi-

beware ga patched up, bastard peace
French Ambassador Jusserand declared
here today in George Washington an

recalled, similar words were pronounced
at Mount Vernon by French Minister of
Justice Viviani and Marshal Joffre.
The envoy Landed President Wilson,
@ Washington s successor" for his de-
eisive, prophetic words on the war:
''The fight is onl As we shall no
more desist than Washington did, even
at his most perilous hour, the result is
certain. The work must be done SO that
