MADE-IN- N-GERMANY LIES
 CIRCULATED IN CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with Made-in- Germany lies calculated to hinder Canadian food conservation ac- cording to an official statement re- ceived from the Canadian food con- troller by the United States food ad- ministration.
 The stories bothering Canada arc of the same general character as those the United States food administra- tor recently denounced in this cOun- try, such as the ridiculous salt and blueing famine fakes and the report that the government would seize housewives' stocks of home canned goods.
 The Canadian food controller esti- mates that when the people listen to and pass on such stories, each one has the power of destruction that lies in a battalion of soldiers.
 ''gtories without even a vestige of foundation have been scattered broad cast" said the Canadian statement "Nor have they come to life casually. They have started simultaneously In different parts Of the country ana m each instance have been calculated to arouse public indignation.
 ''They are insidious, subtle, persist ent. Bit by bit they dissipate. public trust, the great essential in the work of food control.
 'It lies with every individual to for bear from criticism; to refrain from passing on the vagrant and harmful story, and thus the more effectively to cooperate in work which is going to mean more than the majority of people yet realize"

ENGLAND NEEDS MORE TI.|BER
Larger Consumption Must Follow as Result of Postponement of Work
 on Account of War.

Reports reaching the offices of the National Lumber Manufacturing as- sociation in Chicago, indicate there will soon be an increase in the use of wood in England. When a timber controller was appointed last Janu- ary as a war measure, consumption of wood was restricted in nearly every direction until an irreducible minimum seems to have been reached.
 During the last two years England has been living very largely on its fixed capital so far as wood is con- cerned, and little has been done to make repairs or erect new buildings. Railroad companies put off neces- sary work in the hope of better con- ditions, but this cannot be longer postponed.
 Construction of workmeHs cot- tages must also go ahead since many munition and other workers are homeless, while the great increase ln shipbuilding and ship repairing IS bringing an inevitable demand for more ship timber. At the same time requirements of the British army for packing boxes and cases, furniture, light railroads, aerodromes ana other buildings, make constant de- mand for lumber.
 The conclusion of the English timber firms is, therefore. that the time has arrived when 8 larger tlm- Der consumption must take place. and the government will act wiseiy if it allows a larger importation o1 foreign stocks.
