Today another storm is under way.

the snow a mighty obstacle to overcome.

Hundreds of men worked today clearing
snow from tracks, switches and frogs, in

Snow Plows Clear Sidewalks.

Twenty-Five snow plows were put in
operation by the street cleaning de-

rected to removing snow from side
walks and opening up crosswalks in the
congested districts. The department
expected to clean off sidewalks in the
downtown section by night and concen-

AS was the case with the blizzard that
struck Washington last week. the white

morning. About half OF the 400 employees
turned out. Efforts to recruit outside
labor were practically futile. J. w. Pay

complimented the men who stuck to the

harder to handle than the one of last
week. 1t required two days to reclaim
sidewalks. cross walks. cutters and street

i. s. VICTORY BREAD
ON D. c. MENU TODAY
Washington, With Rest of Ma
ton, Begins Use Of Presi-
dents War Substitute.

Washington bakers. in common with
those throughout the country. today
began the manufacture and distribution
of victory bread" containing mini
mum of at least per cent of cereals
other than wheat -four. Hotels and
restaurants which bake their own
bread also are required by the regula-
tions, issued Saturday night by the
food administration and backed by
proclamation by the President OF the
United States, to use the stlputatco q
amount of substitute cereals. The .
per cent will be increased gradually
until February "A. when victory bread
must contain 20 per cent of substitutes.
Today also is wheatless day, the first
under the new rule which provides
two such days a week. and families
which depend on home baking are
urged to use no wheat flour at all.
Where home baking is not done the
use of victory bread is stipulated.
Belief is expressed by bakers that
unless there is speedy relief in the
railroad situation the new regulations
will force a reduction in the size of
bread. Nearly all substitute cereals
are higher in price than wheat flour
and are in very scant supply.
Issue New Home Card.
The new home card of the food
administration has been issued and
shortly will be distributed throughout
the United States to aid housekeepers
in observing the 1918 food conserva-
,ion program of two wheatless, one
meatless and two porkless days a
week as announced in President VIII
sons proclamation
The card carrying an explanation or
the weekly plan goes into effect TO-DAY
and asks "every loyal American to hetp
win the war by maintaining rlgldiy. as
a minimum of saving, the following
program: ,,,-
"Haye two wheatless days (Monday
and Wednesday, in every week and
one wheatless meal in every day.
"Explanation-On wheatless' days
and in 'wheatless meals of other days
NE no crackers. pastry. anacaron',
breakfast food or other cereal food
wheat, and use no wheat
four in any form except the small
amount that may be needed for thick
eni,,p soups gravieS, or for binder
in corn bread and other cereal breads.
AS TO bread, if you bake it at home.
use other cereals than wheat, and II
you buy it, buy only war bread. Our
object is, thai we should buy and con-
sumo one-third less wheat products
than we did last year.
