These men were named by virtue OF

(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Sept General demor-
alization Of the German population
and a growing disaffection in the Ger
man army, accompanied by mutiny
and desertions are described in a
dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from
it's Rotterdam correspondent, under
date of Thursday The correspondent
says that information reaching him
is so sensational as to inspire author
itatve sources, which establishes the
authenticity of the information be-
yond doubt.
He asserts that the German army is
filled with dependency and seething
with mutinous spirit. and that alarm
ing outbreaks have occurred in sever
al units, principally Bavaran and ST.
lesian One incident on the Arras
front terminated in whole Bayarian
division being disarmed and trans
ported to Bavaria. where it was placed
in a prison camp and the mutiny of
one of the Silesian regiments resulted
in nearly a hundred of it's men being
executed.
10000 Desert in Berlin.
A huge number Of desertions are
occurring, the correspondent says and
it is, estimated that there are more
than twenty thousand deserters in
Berlin alone. A large number is
scattered throughout the country and
the authorities are having the great
est difficulty in trailing deserters, ow-
Ing to the connivance of the working
classes. Nevertheless, hundreds have
been arrested and generally these

Patriotic Auto Owners Will Stay Home Sunday
Names Of Others VIII Be Reported by Police

chimes will be reported to the state
council of defense
The United States fuel adminis.ra-
ton issued the following statement
Saturday, relative to economy in the
use Of gasoline:
Unless the wasteful methods in the
handling and use of gasoline are at
once corrected. it will undoubtedly be
necessary for the government to con-
troll the distribution of use of gasoline.
Automobilists would then be made to
conform to the more severe control,
and therefore it is to the automobilists
that we smust go with the request
that wastage useage OF oil and gaso-
line be stopped.
Motorists should not run their en-
gines when the car is not in motion.
They should avoid overfilling tanks
and should see that no oil or gasoline
is spilled or allowed to leak Car
buretors should be adjusted to operate
on the thinnest mixture. All unneces
sary driving should be discouraged.
'If sufficient gasoline and oil cannot
be saved from what is now wasted in
the ways above suggested, then such
mandatory control as will assure the
quantities needed for the conduct of
the war will be inevitable.'
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-09-07

Tomorrow may tell whether volun-
tary rationing of gasoline on Sundays
will be continued, or whether compul-
sorry rationing will be substituted.
1t is necessary to save gasoline. If
automobile owners will show their
patriotism and their support of the
war by giving up their pleasure riding
on Sundays, there will be no need of
a compulsory regulation. 1t is all up
to the automobile owner
The majority of Richmond people
last Sunday observed the request of
the fuel administration and either
stayed at home or walked There
were few who put their own pleasure
before the needs of the boys fighting
over there. and took their automobiles
out as usual. Such people, Mayor Zim-
norman announced Saturday. will not
