LESS SUGAR is
ALLOTTED STATE
FOR new MONTH

Skulking submarines, great mer-
chant fleet transformed into gigantic
ocean bridge over which Americas
khaki clad army has marched into the
battlefield of Europe, have combined
to put the people Of the United States
once more to the test. This time the
nation faces shortage Of sugar. This
time, instead of the national passion
for flakey white wheat bread and
fluffy cakes tbs national sweet tooth
has to be combated and educated and
made to sacrifice its share to the Altar
of Liberty.
New allotment OF sugar to consum-
ers, according to recent dispatches
from Washington. will be two
pounds per person per month, in
stead of three pounds as formerly al
lowed Colorados entire sugar allot-
ment for July was 4.4S2.000 pounds. In
August the state will be allowed only
2,29S,0o0 pounds of sugar which is
decrease of 1.4S4,000 pounds for this
state alone
According to present calculations,
housewives will be able to obtain can
ming sugar up to limited extent de-
pending entirely upon the supply. Food
Administration officials urge all house
wives to use discretion in their can
ming and avoid canning heavy jams
and preserves which take much more
sugar than the canned whole fruits.
Officials also urge that wherever pos
sible fruits and vegetables be dried in
stead of canned as this process takes
no sugar whatever.
Never forget that the sugar situa-
tion is serious and every Coloradoan
should bend every effort to the saving
of sugar

you strike another railroad. Mr.. Wad-
dell was talking with a man who came
in with a load of hogs early Saturday
morning who lives out 35 miles. The
man said he was on the road all night.
He had a team of mules and said four
miles an hour was pretty good when
loaded. Mr. Waddell likes it better
than when he first arrived in the
west. Mrs. Waddell is very home
sick and says good old Wisconsin is
good enough for her, where the birds

LOSES LIFE IN
LAKE MENDOZA
(From Saturdays dailv.)

Herbert Kietzke, a former North
Freedom boy, was drowned yesterday
in Lake Mendoza, Madison. He was
employed on a street car there and
expected to be among the honor men
to leave July o. Deceased was "a
years old and leaves his parents, sew
eral brothers and sisters in North
Freedom. His father, Fred Kietzke,
and sister, Miss Jessie, left for Madi-
son as soon as the sad word came yes
terday.
Concerning the accident the Madi-
son Democrat says:
Being unable to swim, Herbert F.
Kietzke, a conductor of the Madison
Street Railways company, was
drowned in about ten feet of water
in Lake Mendoza at the Tenney park
bathing beach yesterday afternoon.
His body was recovered about 45 min
utes later, and the lungmotor was ap-
piled but without success.
Accompanied by ihis' brother,
Gin, dlSO Ill luG Slup1Oy VI IlC
street railways company, and several
other friends, Kietzke went bathing.
He was not able to swim, and it is
said that his brother advised him not
to go out too far. He stepped from
shallow water into a hole dredged out
at the end of the high diving board.
Ray Worthing and Clement Holmes
heard his cries for help and went to
his assistance. Harry Schwenker,
life guard ALSO went to the scene in
a boat. Worthing got hold of Kietzke
twice. but the latter pulled him down
eahc time.
Cardinal Crew Member Receivers Body
The lung motor Of the fire depart
ment was summoned, but when it was
learned that the body had not been
recovered, the police and others be-
gan to drag. A member of the Cardi-
nal launch crew found the body after
diving twice into the water.
Kietzke was Is years old and
leaves his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Kietzke, at North Freedom Four
brothers and three sisters also sur
vive. One brother, Alfred, is at Camp
Custer.
Kietzke had just left the service of
the street car company, preparing for
entrance into the national army on
July %.
The remains were taken to the
Powers funeral parlors, and at $40
o'clock this afternoon will be sent to
North Freedom. The funeral will be
held from the home Monday after
noon.
1t was stated at the Tenny park
bathhouse last night that signs are
posted at the building, warning of the
deep water at the high dive. The
drowning of Kietzke is the first in the
Madison lakes this year.

A War Record

Rec. E. C. Henke, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, submits the fol
lowing clipping from a newspaper,
which shows the patriotism of one
organization. The clipping reads:
II anyone has any doubts of the
loyalty of labor in this war, he should
look up the record of the Internation-
al Typographical union.
Is it because the printer is one of
the best informed of any class Of
workingmen? That may be the rea-
son. One must go far to find print
er who has not a well-defined opinion
about the war, and thoroughly pa
triotic one And it is the total of
the opinion of members that makes
the policy of the Typographical union.
Let's see what it is.
On June Is, 1918, 4,0S1 journeymen
members of that union and 656 ap-
prentices were in the army and navy
forces of the United States and Can
ada.
Seventy-fve of its members have
fallen in battle in France or have died
in military camps in America.
To the widows, orphans, fathers,
mothers or other relatives Of these
men the International Union has paid
mortuary benefits amounting to $22,-
$50.
During the past twelve months the
international Union has paid $354,O0O
to 1,500 old-age pensioners.
In the same period the union has
paid mortuary benefits amounting to
$312,40O.
The total expense for the mainten-
ance and for improvements at the
Union Printers Home at Colorado
Springs last year was $167,600.
The union has invested 100000 in
each of the three Liberty lOans-$9O,-
600 in all. Subordinate organizations
and individual members have invest
ed more han $3,OOO0OO in these Sc
curities.
Its strike expenses for the past
twelve months were but 1927.
That is a record which would be to
the credit of any class of American
citizens, and when made by an organ
izStion composed entirely IF wage
earners, it is all the more noteworthy.

could not have plurality of wives
merely because his religious beliefs
said such practice was right. The
Russellites also contended that all but
sinners should be exempted from fight
ing the German kaiser.
In pronouncing sentence Judge Howe
said: in the opinion of the court the
religious propaganda which these de-
PENDANTS have vigorously advocated
and spread throughout the nation, as
danger than a division of the German
army. If they had taken guns and
swords and joined the German army
the harm they could have done would
have been insignificant compared with
the results of their propaganda. A
person preaching religion usually has
much influence, and if he is sincere
he is all the more effective. This ag-
gravates rather than mitigates the
wrong they have done. Therefore, as
the only prudent thing to do with such
persons, the court has concluded that
the punishment should be severe" The
judge refused to admit the prisoners
to bail. According to T. w. Gregory,
attorney general at Washington, the
Italian government sometime ago COM
planned to the United States that Ru-
therfOrd and his associates, under the
name Of the Watch Tower Bible and
Tract Society, had circulated in the
Italian armies a quantity of antiwar
propaganda.

The RusseIlites

Will you kindly tells us, in "The
News" a little history Of why Pastor
Russell is now despised? We used to
read his sermons in different papers,
and thought him honorable till lately,
we hear Of something unfavorable, but
do not know why. Perhaps other read
ers are in the dark and would like to
know. Gratefully,
(Mrs.) L. A. DUDLEY,
Glen Cottage, Durward's Glen.
Editors Reply: Pastor Russell has
been dead for some time, but his fol-
lowers have been trying to carry out
his ideas According to Professor Will
liam G. Morehead. United Presbyte-
rian Theological seminary, Xenia, O.,
in an article in the Fundamentals, the
whole system of the Russellites is anti
scrptural and anti Christian. He at
tacks them because they preach the
approach of the millennium, the destiny
of the wicked, and other doctrines.
Although opposed by other churches,
the books of Pastor Russell had a
wide circulation, and are looked upon
by many as propaganda. 1t should be
remembered that a church or it's mem
bers cannot do as they please in this
country under the guise of religion
because the state is above all churches
and religious sects, as has been dem
onstrated in the past.
From the Continent
Rev. E. C. Henke, pastor of the Pres
byterian church. Baraboo, has kindly
furnished this Office with copy of
The Continent, which fully answers
Mrs. Dudley's question, and which will
no doubt be read with much interest
by many who have purchased the Rus
sell books or other printed matter.
The article from The Continent is as
follows:
Prison for RusselIites
Joseph F. Rutherford and the seven
other defendants, followers Of the late
Pastor" Russell, have been convicted
by jury in the federal court of New
York on four counts, charging conspi-
racy against the United States gov
eminent, INSTRUMENTATION, disloyalty
and resistance to the selective draft
law. They have been sentenced each
to twenty years in prison. These
crimes are violations of the espionage
law recently passed by congress. This
is the closing scene of a case which
had its beginnings almost a year ago
when draft dodgers and deserters from
the army are alleged to have been shell
tered by the Russellites and even to
have been encouraged in seditious
writings by them to quit the army
The Russellites in court contended
their religious belief excused their
crimes, but this contention early was
defeated by the court, which cited the
federal supreme court decision in the
Mormon cases, which held that man
