THE FOOD LAWS TO BE EN-
FORCED MORE STRICTLY

FORCED MORE STRICTLY
The elaborate reporting system
which the Food Administration re.
quired Of licenses has served its pur.
poses of survey and statistics. The
announcement will very soon be
made dispending with such frequent
returns, except on the part of the
bakeries. With wheat the test Of
patriotism and preparedness, and
the bakeries handling 40 percent of
the nations flour output, the su-
pervision of bread continues a para
mont duty. Fully 25 percent of
flour will be saved through the bread,
and in some states the saving will be
even greater. Texas, for example,
endeavoring to put through plan
by which the bakers, will turn out
quick-breads instead Of the custo-
mary loaves, and in the quick-breads
two-thirds Of the flour must be subs
tituted by other cereals.
John NJ Parker, food administra-
tor for Louisiana, returned from a
meeting of Mr.. Hoover's staff at
Washington, and announced the de-
cision regarding reports and other
important matters. While they may
be relieved Of the work of making
out frequent records of tranactions,
it will still be important for all le-
censed firms to keep fullAand accu-
rate books and to have them in such
shape as to permit of instant and
easy inspection. The government
will organize an expert inspection
service for the purpose, and will de-
tail inspectors to work in states in
which they are not interested and
have little acquaintanceship. They
will be graded, weighed, inspected
and certified to by the government.
The new system is expected to meet
with the hearty approval of rice
producers as we'll as Of other branch
es of the industry, as it will guaran-
tee an absolutely square deal all
around and will facilitate and en-
courage broader trading in the Lou
isiana cereal which the government
has done a great deal to popularize

Sugar prices have not yet been
fixed for the coming season. Mr..
Parker did not feel authorized to
venture upon any guess or promise,
,ut he felt safe in assuring the
louisiana planters that the interest
# the states sugar producers will
eceive every consideration possible.
Reading of these lines ought to be
cry cheering for the planters. Mr..
Parker said further that the sugar 81
uation is regarded as serious There 10
enough sugar in the world to meet
ii the worlds needs, but the great
problem is to transport this sugar
% that it will be available for distri-
'ution and use. There is an i'm
nense quantity Of sugar stored in
cuba but the ships to bring it over
must be used in the direct route to
he battle zone. So that it all remains
'or the United States to do is to
sugar in every way posi-
,le and to distribute the supply to
he best possible advantage. This
s being done under the new certifi-
:ate system in which the sugar is d. |

larger allowance than soft drinks,
candy and similar products which
people and even the soldiers can do
without until there is more sugar
to spare. At the same time, they
are not being asked to do without
the industries less essential being on
ly cut down 20 percent of their nor
NAL consumption of sugar. The con-
Germs which have failed to report by
June 10th, will have hard time get
ting sugar for any purpose in the fu-
ture and may even run the risk of
having their licenses revoked. ,.
The, Food Administration is doing
all it can to find a market for the
record potato crop, so that the farm
ers will not be discouraged from con-
tinued production and so that the
people will get the full benefit of
the food raised. General Goethals
declared it impractical and impossi-
BILE to grant the Louisiana request to
the government to buy all its pota-
toes at S1.5O per hundred pounds for
cantonment and army use. The ar
my system is to call for bids, it put
liberal home supply of potatoes on
its list of rations, and it awarded
contracts very recently on the basis
of from 75c to $1O0 per hundred
pounds. Under the circumstances,
he could not see how the system
could be disrupted, special excep-
tion made in favor of single Lou
isiana crop and the government bind
itself to pay higher for a supply
than it had already contracted for. !,
Nevertheless, the Food Administra- |;
ton and other government agencies !,
are convinced that they have done a !
great deal for the Louisiana crop
and that the farmers will fare bet !
ter than have those in other states
who produced potatoes. The Fall
crop is about out of the way, the new
Northern crop will not come IN for
some time, and Louisiana will have |
q clear field and market for some six
weeks or so, with prices already
steadying. The New Orleans plan,
in which the retail grocers distribu-
led direct to the consumers, letting
Ill the money 60 to the farmers, had
he effect Of stabilizing the potato
,rice and has frightened the out
ook in every way.
The Food Administration and other
authorities at Washington were i'm
,ressed with the outlook for a long
var and the constantly increasing
necessity for food conservation For
hat reason, there was no difference
# opinion regarding the great ne
essity for food regulations and their
omplete observance. It was thought
hat ample time and energy had been
.iven to education, so that hereafter,
he food laws will be strictly enforc-
d and fewer exceptions will be
made. E. #. Marrick, the prominent
awyer who has been made the volun-
eer head of the Louisiana Enforce
nent Division, made his first trip to
Washington and interviewed the de-
,artments so as to obtain first hand
regarding iregula-
ions, rulings and motives. He has
'eturned to aid the Food Admins
ration in carrying out the food pro-
am he endorses as vital to the pro-

TRANSPORTING OUR TROOPS

! The world has been astonished at
the great number of American SOL
diers transported to Europe in the
last half year. The number now ap-
proximates 100000, and the loss of
life in transporting them has been
almost infinitesimaI.
The success with which we have
moved our troops from the scattered
camps in this country and across 5000
miles of ocean to the battle front is
great evidence of American efficiency
We have not only surprised our enc
mics; we have surprised our friends
and ourselves.
The British controller of shipping
Sir Joseph Mclay, speaks of this
movement across the sea as "a trans
port miracle" We have bean in
clined to attribute this achievem snt
solely to our Navy and our shipping
but the British controller speaks in
high praise of the share the American
railroads had in the work. He says:
IF the American railroads had not
been operated with success the whole
transport movement might have fail
ed, because it was essential to quick
transportation that the troops should
be ready for the ships"
Director General McAdoo seems
justified in his statement that while
the development of the policy of the
Railroad Administration requires time.
rro~ress has been made toward the
goal.

To the Editor,
Dear Sir:
Tha War Department, through its
Military Information Division, is Sc
curing all information of military
value in the United States. The col
lecting of this information is being
done in the various states by state
departm snts through Special Agents
without expense to the Federal Gov
eminent.
Due to the magnitude of the task it
becomes necessary to solicit aid of
individuals within the various dis
tricts, known as quadrangles (tracts
approximately II miles wide and II
miles long, of which there are 800 in
North Dakota), to secure the infor-
nation required. This information
will be of a general. nature and will
not require much time or entail much
expense on the part of the individuals.
There are many citizens anxious to
serve the country at this time and
this work offers unusual opportunity
of service for Uncle Sam, to limited
number.
All persons desiring to volunteer

The Eagles are within thirty feet
of approximating the length of the

Viewed from above deck, the Eagle
is much more like a founder than a

bears strong likeness to the lines Of
a canal barge. It's stern is square
and blunt. The remainder of the
