PRESS COMMENT ON
CLOSING FACTORIES

New York, Jan. 17.-New York
newspapers. except the New York Sur
today condemns the Garfield orde
closing Industries.
The New York World said: The
coal issue of Fuel administrator Gar
field is the greatest disaster that has
befallen the United States ins this war.
This wild experiment in economic
ment has been reserved for the United
States. President Wilson should not
lose moment in multiplying the Gar
field order. That done. his next duty
is to remove Mr.. Garfield
The Tribune said: The fuel ad-
ministration has lost its head. DR..
headlong manner"
The Sun; "A surgeon is more well
penis on n" our a transportation system. @
The Herald: Certainly any man
with knowledge of conditions in the
against suddenly plunging the whole
industry of the country into confusion
which easily could have been averted.''
will Immediately reconsider and revoke
Mr.. Garfield's astounding order. An
invasion Of the United States by Ger
man armies and the capture of cities
could hardly be more caiamltous in its
effects"
The Evening World: Fuel Admin
istrator Garfield gave an exhibition of
bureaucratic incompetency unequalled
in the history of this government. The
president should rescind the order and
remove the man who issued it,
The Chicago Herald said: THE
principal Industries of the principal
part Of an entire nation cannot be stop
ped even for day without as certain
disorganiza ton. without an unfortunate
loss. But the country is willing to par
the price If it is The necessary cost to
prevent the suffering of hundreds of
THOUSANDS and of keeping indispensa-
bic war functions going at their ac-
customed speed"
The st. Louis Globe Democrat
(RepublcanO says: Doctor Garfield's
order shutting down all industries east
of the Mississippi is most amazing
confession of incompetency in his past
administration and of lack of courage
and ability to deal with the future.

Supply With NeighbOrs.
That Is Warming Carey Issued
Here This Afternoon. -
PRAY FOR WARM WEATHER
Another Cold Spell Might Mean
Much Suffering.
Little Chance Kansas Factofies
Will Shut Down.

Pray for warmer weather.
Another cold wave such as visited
Kansas last week will mean an open
ing of your cellar and coal bin that
your neIghbor may keep warm, That
was the warning sounded In Topeka
today by Emerson Carey. of Hutchin-
son, state fuel administrator. Carey
does not anticipate shutting down OF
Kansas industries or closing OF
offices. But without warmer weather
in the next three or four weeks. coal
bins must become common property
I'VE are simply right up against a
problem which means the production
is not sufficient to meet the demand"
said Carey. without a reserve sup
ply of fuel another cold wave means
that the man with a couple of tons of
coal in his cellar must divide with his
less fortunate neighbors. A little warm
weather. tho. and an increase in the
gas supply will work wonders In Kan
sas."
No Shut Down Here.
Carey is not inclined to the belief
that Kansas Industries will be closed
because of the fuel shortage. He says
conditions here are not as acute as
in the industrial centers of the east.
But another cold wave will prob
ably mean regulation of hours for
stores and shops and offices. In my
home town we have refused to permit
dealers to sell coal to churches or pool
halls or places of amusement until
the supply is sufficient to care for the
needs in homes without coal supply.
We are trying to handle the problem
with little friction as possible.
Three or four more weeks will see US
well over the danger point. Warmer

PORTER SAVING ICE
City Commissioner Believes 1t Will BE
Appreciated Next Spring.

1t is a cold kind of conservation
idea that W. L. Porter, city commits
sioner announced that the city had
adopted today.
During the last several weeks the ice
on the Gage park lakes has been thick
and clear Porter decided that he
might just as well save some OF the
frozen substance for cooling purposes
during the humid days that are in
promise next summer.
An ice-house is beng erected at
Gage park and workmen will place
100 tons of ice from the lakes therein.

"cHEAT-BEE

Many names are suggested for the
new bread, but there is not, nor is
there likely to be, any agitation for
the revival of the name it once bore
cheat or cheat-bread. Notwith-
standing that Drayton in his "Poly-
olbion" calls it common cheat, the
term is not as disparging as it looks.
1t was probably derived from the
French "scheter," for it meant
bought bread. Bakers were permit
ted to make it from -four not quite
so finely Ibolted Cor sifted) as that
used in the houses of the rich, and so
it contained the ingredients found in
the war bread of today. Still, it
ranked next to the manchet, which
was made from the finest white flour.

MUCH TIN SOLD As SILK.

1t is estimated that at least 5000
tons of metallic tin are used yearly
in this country to make tin tettra-
chloride, which is purchased by silk
dyers for weighing and finishing
silk. The American Metal Market
says that by far the largest percent
age of tin recovered from tin-plate
scrap is now devoted to this purpose
by the silk industry, and is lost. II
urges that such use be suspended
during the war as a tin conservation
measure.
