DECEASED MAN NOT
SECRETARY STIEGLER
Private Herbert F. Stiegler, Who Died
at Camp Upton, Second Cousin of
Brattleboro Man.

Much sorrowful apprehension was
felt in Brattleboro today when the con
tents Of a despatch from Lawrence,
Mass, in the Boston Globe became cur
rent, which announced the death at
Camp Upton, of influenza, of Herbert
4. Stiegler, son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Gus
tav Stieglcr Of Lawrence.
1t was thought possible that the per-
son referred to might be Herbert f.
Stieglcr, who was secretary of the Brat
tleboro board Of trade until he left for
Camp Devcns last month and whose
home is in Lawrence, Mass.
The Reformer telephoned to Gustav
Stiegler in Lawrence to make inquiry
and learned that the deceased young
man was a second cousin Of Herbert f.
Stieglcr. The latter 5 father is Emil c.
Sticglcr, cousin of Gustav Sticgler.

BUSCH BREWERIES
OFFERED TO NATION
Ordnance Department Asked to Take
Over st. Louis Property for
Munition Production.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2lAugust A.
Busch, president of the Anheuser- Busch
Brewing Co OF st. Louis, rendered today
to the ordnance department the entire
Anheuser- Busch brewing properties in
ST. Louis, providing the government can
use them for the production of munitions
Mr. Busch requested General Tripp of
the ordnance department to reach an
early decision ON the proposal as the
Busch interests intended to enter upon
the production of munitions as private
corporation if the government does not
assume control.
Some army officers here believe that
the plants can be equipped for the pro-
duction of small shells within few
weeks. The discussion today related en-
tirelv to the production of small shells
and cartridges.
The Anheuser Busch property has been
one of the show places of st. Louis. A
description of the property, as given to
General Tripp by Mr.. Busch today, en-
phasized its magnitude. The buildings
offered cover l45 acres of ground with
many times las many acres of floor space
There are seFen miles of railroads within
the plant and 10 modern machine hops
Mr.. Busch told General Tripp there
are 100000 cubic feet of refrigeration
space, that one unit in the plant was pro.
ducing 1000 tons of ice every day. that
the power plants were producing -.
000.000 klowatt hours of electrical
energy annually and that the boiler ca.
pacity was l3,000,0o0 horse power.
Mr.. Busch said it was his desire to re.
tain the men now employed at the plant
as they had purchased homes with tn,
intention Of remaining in st. Louis. anC
this would relieve the housing situation
if the government decided to manufactur,
munitions at the plant.
