GERMAN LEADERS
PlEYED ON POOR

London, Dec. ga letter written

Able Seaman Hooper Of the British
submarine service, when he went
aboard the U-105 at Harwich to in

ITO my British brother sailor, If he
cares to read it. Written in my bunk
on the trip over to England.
THE truth is Germany has broken
herself. Real patriotism was lacking
in the leading classes. They made it
their point to reap fortunes no matter
which way the Fatherland was drift
ing. The German people all had more
real patriotism.
"Only the poor had to suffer. so no
wonder they grew more and more dis
contented. When they attempted to
-aise their voices they were quieted
ike traitors and unpatriotic people.
And then all at once came the
breakdown. Soldiers refused to obey,
L few at first. then more. and the
whole fleet. Then the leading people
saw with establishment that they who
thought themselves almighty were
powerless.
Inside of IL hours the whole sys-
EN- had broken. No friendly feelings
linked the two classes together. Each
had lived for themselves. The rich
had looked down on the poor as the
ordinary man will look down on an
ass. Now they pay the penalty

heads to the soles of their feet.
AS the men enter the first ROOM
they are accosted by Clyde Turner

RECEIVE NO
ORDERS ON
LESS DAYS
New Regulations Have Net Arrived Here
Officially; Bakers Prepare New Bread;
HOllingswOrtb TO Enforce Rules

No word had been received here
this morning by the county food ad
ministration relative to the new food
regulations that have been issued
by the food administration. AS lie
official orders had been received by
local dealers no attempt was made
to observe today as a wheatless day
although word was expected from
headquarters some time today.
The bakers nave already planned
to make a new bread on wheatless
day that will be white and at the
same time conform to the regulations
that have been made by the food
administration. The new bread will
contain about twenty per cent rice
flour and twenty per cent water
mixed with sixty per cent white
wheat flour. Bakers say that this
will be almost as good as the bread
made from the cream flour and SO
far as the color is concerned it can
hardly be told from the cream wheat
bread.
The management of the local mills
say that they have not received any
instructions relative to the new regu
lations, When asked about the reg
ulation relative to the number OF
pounds of flour that was to be man
ufactured from a given amount o.
wheat, local millers said that tha
part of the regulations had been il
effect for some time.
G. M. Hollingsworth, whose ap
pointment as county food administra
tor has recently been confirmed ant
who now has authority to act, sait
| that he had not received any instruc
tions as to the new orders that haC
been issued but was expecting som'
word today. When asked about thu
enforcement of the regulations, h'
said:
"Since the council has passed al
ordinance relative to the enforce
ment of the rules that are laid dowl
by the food administration we hav'
some means of compelling the pee
pie to observe these days that ar
set apart for the conservation 0

they are enforced.

attorney who will take case where

involved. However, we are goin
at this matter with renewed interes
and see that the new rules that
laid are strictly obserYed."

PHYSICIAN
To Prevent Spread Of Small POx, DR..
Dawson Orders Temporary Shut
Down at School

One Of the rooms was temporarily
closed at the north school this morn
ing by DR. e. l.. Dawson, city health
officer, because of the fear of an cpl
demic OF small pox breaking out
there as q result of one of the pu-
pills with small poX symptoms being
in school Friday and thereby posi-
bly, exposing others. DR.. Dawson
said that he had heard Of several
other instances where the disease
had been so light that those who
we're affected did not even have to
go to bed and that they were on the
streets every day and in this way
many had been exposed
"One or two cases have been re.
ported to me where physicians have
hal ca es and had called it chicken
pox' and have found that they had
done this in order to protect their
patients from a quarantine. AS soon
as l found out about these cases
their patients We're placed under
quarantine and the other members
of the family were vaccinated," said
DIR. Dawson.
DR.. Dawson this morning ordered
all of those children who had neither
had the small pox or been vaccinat-
ed to be kept out of school or else
be vaccinated. "This must be done" ="
he said, "if we expect to stop the
spread of the epidemic. An unyacci-
mated community should not be al
lowed to exist as this is the only
sure way of preventing the diseaoo
and the only way we have of stop
ping it's spread, as a quarantine is
not effective.
"The action that is being taken to
prevent the further spread of the
disease and not because there is any
great number of cases here now
There are now four cases which have
been reported to me and | believe
that is about all there are here at
the present time but these cases may
be the cause of many others if the
proper precautions are not taken
now. ! want the cooperation of all
the physicians and the people here
in this work and wherever there is
a case it should by all means be re
ported.

should see now that they are vacci

Washington, Jan 2S.--An outline
OF the revolutionary demands TO be

that has been received here shows
that they ask more of the despot
than American labor asks OF democ-

The program may play an impor-

pires if they get the whip hand as a
result of the social upheaval that is
reported to be under way in Germa-
ny and Austria
The labor program provides for an
eight hour day and six days a week,
with no night or Sunday work un-
less it is absolutely necessary. The
demands as outlined carry other
strong provisions to cause the Ger
