G. N. ENGINEER DISCHARGED
Loses Job for Violation of the State
Liquor Law

Leo Wenzloff, Great Northern en-
gineer, and L. Zilka, conductor, have
been discharged by the company for
violations of the liquor laws. This
makes six men let out by the Great
Northern in the last year for liquor
law violations.
While the rules of the company are
strict regarding violations of laws, the
existing agreements with the conduc-
tors and trainmen provide that none
shall be dismissed from service with
out fair hearing at company in
vestigation, and that the person being
tried shall have the privilege of hav-
ing some one to represent him at the
hearing. A court conviction is not
sufficient.

RESTAURANTS CAN SERVE
MORE MEAT AND BUTTER
Restrictions On Public Eating Places
Are Lifted-Order Effective
Last Monday

Regulations restricting the use of
bread, meat, sugar, butter and cheese
in public eating places, which have
been in effect since last October 21,
were ordered rescinded this week by
the food administra tion.
This order, it was explained, is a
further step in the replacement of
specific food regulations by a general
appeal for increased conservation of
all foods to the end that the United
States may meet its pledge to relieve
the distressed civilian populations in
Europe.
In announcing the withdrawal of
the regulations the food administra-
tion notified public eating places to
be ready to assist in putting into eff
feet any specific measures which may
hereafter become necessary through
developments in world relief.

John Mcintosh arrived home last
Monday evening on a weeks furlough,
which he will spend with his home
folks. He says it seems good to poke
his feet under mas table once more.
They're all alike. Another one came
home a few days ago and we verify
believe the lodestone attraction of a
Christmas dinner outweighed ell other
considerations. Can it be possible
that we ourselves, were that way fifty
years ago? John has been connected
with the Ordnance department and
most recently located at Camp Grant,
Illinois.

During the last two weeks 0. c. Nc
Namara, of the Great Northern claim
department, and w. S. Booth of the

sultation with the shippers of fruit in
the Wenatchee valley in an effort to
reach a settlement of claims of ap-
proximately $350,O00 filed by ship
pers for losses sustained during 1917.
II is understood that settlements had
been reached with most of the dealers
and growers organizations on an av-
erage basis of fifty per cent of the
claims.

PRESIDENT MAY HURRY HOME
FOREIGN DIPLOMATS ALARMED
Senate Resolution May Mean Repudi-
alton of League of Nations
Plan

The following Washington dispatch
in yesterdays daily press indicates
that there is a feeling in the nations
capital that the president will return
sooner than he purposed in order to
prevent the passage of the resolution
presented by Senator Knox just be-
fore the senate adjourned for the hol-
idays. England, France and Italian
statesmen fear the presidents plan of
a league of nations and there is a
likelihood of its being repudiated by
the senate.
