organizations in America. and has

in conjunction with the Chicago police,
have unearthed at least three differ

apparently having close connection
with German agents and believed to be
largely financed with German funds,
came with the announcement that the

raided and Frank and Nicholas Carna-

married. thus to newspaper men the
situation in France. Standing before
the greatest military maps at the war
department that show clearly just
where the German is being beaten back,
he pointed out that the great battle
front was rapidly being Strengthened
out from ReimS to the sea.
"This is the time for the greatest
effort keep the enemy running. That
is the reason the United States is being
called upon for increased man power; ;
that is the reason we want the age
limits for the draft both lowered and
raised to get more men.
ut Is no time now to talk about the
war being over. 1t is the time to hit
hard.
"The greatest advantage Of the while
thing has been the change of the allies
from the defensive to the offensive,
which is great military asset. We
have the enemy guessing now instead

Share OUR SUGAR
WITH The ALLIES
British Get Two Pounds a Month.
French Pound and Half,
Italians One Pound.
GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL.
All Nations Permit Use of Sweetening
for Home Preserving Purposes.

Americas new sugar ration of two
pounds a month per person Is equita
BILE when compared with the sugar ra-
tion enforced by rigid governmental
order in England, France and Italy, ma
tions with which we are sharing sugar.
Each Allied nation-in the matter of
sugar cOnsumptiOn-is sharing on near
est possible equal terms the hardships
imposed by greatly altered conditions
in the world sugar situation.
Formerly classed as a luxury, sugar
Is now a war time essential. The fair
and just division of this essential is
in the hands Of the various Allied
food controllers.
The United States Food Administra-
ton has asked this nation to observe
q voluntary sugar ration Of two
pounds per person a month.
In the other countries at war with
Germany sugar is one Of the scarce
articles on every menu-whether in
the households of both rich and poor,
or in the hotels.
England today has q sugar ration
of two pounds per month per person.
In France the ration Is pound and a
half and in Italy 1t Is one pound a
month. And the prices in allied coun-
tries are from two to three times as
high as in America.
If you go to a hotel in England or
France these days and order tea or
coffee they serve absolutely no sugar
with it. If you want sugar you must
bring 1t with you.
In England 1t Is allowable to use
one-seventh Of an ounce of sugar in
the preparation Of each luncheon. In
France many persons carry little sac
charine tablets about with them for
use In hotels and in England rich and
poor must take their sugar with them
If they wish to have sweetened tea
while visiting friends.
Before the war started France had
625,OOO acres devoted to sugar produc-
ton. By 1917 the French sugar acre
age had decreased to 10000 acres
Today the French man or woman with a
sugar card has no assurance whatever
that he or she will be able to actually
buy sugar. To buy it, one must first
find it..
Italy Has Estate Sugar."
Especially drastic regulations govern
the use of sugar in Italy. Its manu-
facture, distribution and sale are close
ly controlled, and In part actually
taken over by the state.
Saccharine Is permitted to be sold
and used as a substitute for sugar and
the government manufactures mix
ture of saccharine and sugar called
Estate Sugar." which Is largely used.
German Sugar Ration Adequate.
Germany, before the war, produced
a great surplus Of sugar and exported
large quantities. Today the Germans
have virtually gone out of the export
business. but have plenty of cheap
sugar for home use.
Wholesale prices prevalent in the
Allied nations, according to informa-
ton received by the United States
Food Administration are as follows !:
England, 10 cents a pound; France,
12 cents; Italy, 26 cents.
While these high prices are being
paid abroad the American wholesale
price is being held at IN cents.

That Loose Shoe Strinn-

Little things often lead to serious
consequences. So it Is not surprising
to learn that recently an employee Of
a large manufacturing establishment
was coming down the stairway from
the third floor Of the warehouse, when
the lacing in one of his shoes became
united. He continued to go down the
stairs, and when about five steps from
the landing he stepped on the flowing
shoe lace, which threw him, and he
fell, striking his head and shoulders
that he died the next morning. Which
teaches us that one cannot afford to
be careless, even in such trivial de-
tails as loose shoe strings.-Scientific
American.
