sugar has been changed to read as
follows:
Sugar may be sold only on a basis
of three pounds per person per
month. Merchants will note that
the five pound exception to ranchers,
ETC., is discontinued. Restaurants
may continue to buy as heretofore.
Ranchmen and sheepmen who need
larger quantities must make a writ

reasons for asking such exception.
Drastic Action Necessary
Directly following the news of the
great battle now raging on the West
Front comes word that the bread ra-
ton of the Allies soldiers is being
reduced owing to the lack of wheat.
The Administration is urging still
further reduction in the consumption
of wheat by the American people.
l4Still further restrictions are being
considered and there is general
tightening of the rules now in ef-
feet.
State Administrators have been
notified that the Food Law now ef-
fective authorizes the reQuisitioning
of grain in national emergencies and
are being asked to investigate all
cases of alleged boarding. Persons
found guilty will be dealt with Sc
verely.
