LID IS OFF ON
XMAS BUYING

Every ban in connection with holi-
day buying has been lifted by the
council of national defense.
Restrictions with regard to en-
ployment of labor and conservation Of
materials, transportation and delivery
facilities affecting the handling and
sale of Christmas goods, agreed upon
some time ago between the secretaries
of war, commerce, navy, labor, inter-
ior and agriculture, and representa-
tives of leading industries ar retail
interests, were Tuesday removed
says the statement.
THE council of national defense
now believes that, as one of the steps
essential to rapid establishment of
after war conditions, which will be
normal and tranquii it should, and
hereby does, lift every ban in con-
,nection with holiday buying, in the de-
sire to give a natural impetus to the
unemployment of those normally en-
gagged in the production of holiday
material and in the holiday trade"
This means that Christmas buying
this year is on the same basis as it
was before the war.

QUARANTINE HAS
BEEN RAISED

The Douglas County Board of
Health met Wednesday and raised the
influenza quarantine that has been In
effect for the past six weeks. This
step was taken after due consideration
and from the fact that no new cases
of the disease has appeared in the
community during the past week or
ten days.
All Of the patients at the isolation
hospital have recovered and were
discharged Wednesday afternoon and
the hospital closed.
The raising of the quarantine makes
1t permissible to hold public meetings
and gatherings, and last night Rev.
Menzel held a Thanksgiving service
at the Lutheran cnurch, the same be-
ing largely attended. The church
had been closed for six weeks.
valhalla Theatre opened again last
night, after period of a month or
more of darkness, and movie fans
were free to admit that the silent
drama never looked so good to them.
The influenza epidemic knocked
business into cooked hat, but already
a noticeable Improvement is reported
by merchants. who are now getting
their stores in shape for the holiday
trade.
The county is not free of influenza,
but the epidemic has subsided and the
few cases reported are being cared for
in their own homes.

THE FOOD QUESTION

The mooted question of whether or
not we must save to feed Germany and
the Central Powers is answered by
Mr.. Hoover and the Food Administra-
ton in bulletin issued Wednesday
by the Federal Food Administration
for Nevada. Our food obligation is
to our own people, our armies and the
Allies. In order to promote early re-
turn to normal conditions, which is
necessary that her indemnities may
be paid, Germany will be permitted
by slightly raising the sea blockade to
use the remnants of her navy and
merchant marine in hauling food
stuffs bought from neutrals and paid
for in cash. But the saving of Amer
lea is for one hundred and twenty
million people in the Allied countries.
1T might be well to answer here
the three or four other questions every
one is asking. First: Why was the
1920 wheat flour rule suspended,
when there is an avowed shortage of
food? Simply because there is a more
serious shortage still of wheat mill
and other feeds necessary for dairy
and meat herds. While substitute re-
strictions have been rescinded, the
quantity Of wheat bread which may be
served is still limited.
Second: Why has the sugar al
lowance been increased? Because
there is plenty of sugar available to
fill all ships which can be devoted to
sugar, and because the needs of the
Allies under their present rations are
provided for. Therefore Americans
are given more sugar, at least for the
present.
Third; What is the meat situa-
ton? There is world shortage of
meats, animal and vegetable fats, and
dairy products. At present, there is
enough beef to fill alleavaiable refrig-
orator ships. In two months, the
meat shortage will probably be acute.
We must save on all meat products
and vegetable oils.
