WHAT WHEAT CONTROL
HAS SAVED THE NATION

It is estimated by e. N. 'Fairchild, a
Cleveland, Ohio, miller Of long expe-
rience and sound judgment, that near
ly $900,000,000 have been saved the
American people on flour since last
July by the United States Food Ad-
ministration. Mr.. Fairchild said re-
Gently in an interview, reported in the
American Grocer: cit is an easy thing
for a person to criticize an official of
the Government, and criticizing seems
to be one of the traits of Americans.
1t Is not difficult for us to recall that
a year ago, when America had not en-
tered the war against Germany and
there was no Food Administrator or
regulation of the markets, flour was
retailing at 500 barrel. This year,
with a smaller crop to work on and
the country in the midst of the war,
-four is averaging about $12 barrel.
It has been estimated that the annual
consumption of flour in this country
is one barrel per person in normal
times. There are about 110,000,000
people in the United States, and the
saving effected by the United States
Food Administration has been about
20 per cent. Now, if it has managed
to save the country 81 on each barrel
consumed since it was founded, it is
readily seen that it has saved the peo-
pie S88,000,000. By the same method
of figuring, if $40 has been saved on
each barrel the Food Administration
has saved us $SSO,OOO,OOO since July
/ am not content to believe, however
that it has saved us a dollar less than
$40 barrel, or $1,76O,OO0,O00

Vancing. Gen. Pershing, this MORN
ing says: ''0ur troops have taken
Fismes by assault and hold the South
bank Of the Vesle in this section. The
full fruits of victory in the counter
offensive begun so glOriOusly by
FrancO-American troops on July is,
were repeated on Saturday, when the
enemy, who met his second great de-
feat on the Marine, was driven in con-
fusion beyond the line of the Vesle'
The enemy in spite of suffering the
severest losses, proved incapable OF
stemming the onslaught of our troops,
fighting for liberty. In the course OF
the operations $500 prisoners and 13a
guns have been captured by our men
alone" The American losses have
been amazingly slight.

BREWING COMPANIES
CONSOLIDATED
Mathie Brewing Co. and Ruder Brew
ing Co., Win be KOwn As
American Brewing Co.

At a meeting of the stockholders of
the Mathie and Ruder Brewing COM
panies, held last evening at their re-
spective offices, it was voted to con-
solidate the two companies under the
firm name of the American Brewing
Co., with a capital stock of $350,000.
A resolution was passed authorizing
both companies to take the stock of
the new company. Owing to war con
ditions brewing companies mad been
limited by order of the National Fuel
Administrator, to reduce the use of
coal so per cent; this would result
in both companies working half the
usual time, under great difficulties and
at loss, so it was determined to con-
solidate. By regulating the output,
the business of the new company can
be conducted satisfactorily.
The new company will be organized
for consolidation Immediately.

to report:
Hello, Mr.. Gates? Those cars have

Good" Franz Won Rintelen, alias
E. V. Gates, hung up the phone, then
turned to write a scrawling letter,
which read:

Into a mailbox went the letter, to
reach the shipowners by special de-

the granting of the demand of the
longshoremen. But that letter chang

Call up Union headquarters and
tell them that all negotiations are
off, roared the president. IF those
longshorement think they can bully
us, they're badly mistaken. Well
give them nothing!"
The message reached Union head
quarters. And the reply flashed back
over the wire:

the sinking of your lighter. But If
you can't take our word for it. .."
I'VE have your word-the confess

was the rejoiner.
There was only one answer for the
men at Union headquarters to make,
and they made it:
Then our only reply must come in
the form Of a strike. We are sorry"

Then, throughout the city the word
was radiated, the word that the final
breach had been reached between the
longshoremen and the shipowners,
