BY NOT WASTING T. ALL-|NHEkT FLOUR
 JAN BE USED IN J. $.

In view of the large number of in quiries as to the reasons for the re- moval of restrictions upon the use of wheat flour the food administration has issued the following statement:
 Since it's inception the food admins trations policy has been to adjust it's conservation requests with cOnserva- ton necessities, and the public has shown its appreciation of this frank ness by immediate response.
 Last spring the food administration was extremely anxious about the wheat shortage, and the public was asked to restrict it's consumption of wheat down to the barest necessity, in order to meet the needs of the allies. With q surplus of only 10000 bushels of wheat, the American people, through conservation, enabled the food admin istration to ship Al, ,000,0 000 bushels of wheat. In spite of this conservation, when we reached the 1918 harvest, there was less than q ten day supply in America.
 When the new crop came in it proved to be very large, but not too large to take care of the needs at that time. It was the desire of the food ad- ministration not to be caught another season with any shortage of this most valuable foOdstuff, and with the idea that it was necessary not only to con- tinue shipments of wheat to Europe but to build up a big reserve for the 1919 spring offensive the food admin istration continued to ask the people to use wheat sparingly.
 The signing of the armistice changed the situation with wheat immediately just as it did with all measures taken With the needs of a continuing war ir view. Wheat supplies in distant countries were made available by the cessation of the submarine menace and the assurance of a good crop ir 1919, undisturbed by war, relieved somewhat the necessity of building uI as large a reserve as was anticipated In other words, it is probable that oul normal actual consumption of wheat implying elimination of waste in whicf our people have been thoroughly schooled, will be permissible and stil allow us to keep the food administra tion pledge in the shipping of grea quantities of bread stuffs to hungry Europe. Last years situation witt fodder grains plentiful and whea scarce has been entirely reversed anC the necessity now points to a more CdFelul use Ol tIe grams HSueu lOl animal feed and a freer use of wheat.
 It can not be too strongly empha sized that even under present condi tions no wheat must be wasted. It i: well known fact that a diet whicl includes little meat naturally increase: the consumption of bread and at thi! time, when the shortage of meat il acute. it is good to know that an in creased consumption of bread is no unpatriotic.

ARTHUR N. B0STRU|M
 ARRESTED IN COAST

Word was received in Phoenix last night of the arrest in Los Angeles of Arthur x. BOstrom. former cashier of the Pacific Gas and Electric company, where he had been taken in custody by deputy sheriffs on a warrant charging embezzlement. When arrested he de- clined 70 make a statement.
 Arthur Bostrom. who had been i'll the employ. of the Pacific Gas and Slectric company in this city for four years, disappeared on october P and an examination of his accounts devel- oped the fact that he was short to the extent, at least, of 1900, it was stated. A warrant charging embezzlement was at once issued.
 Discovery of the shortage was made a few hours after Bostrom dropped from view, aRd a careful audit of the books was made to learn of further discrepancies. The Pacific Gas and Electric company was protected by the bonding company and suffered no loss. IL was stated that the search for the missing cashier and his subsequent arrest was due to the activities of the bonding company. Bostrom probably will be immediately returned to this city.
 Bostrom was one of the most trusted employees of the Pacific Gas and Electric company and bore an excel lent reputation.

WA|FS MUST FIND
 HOME IN PHOENIX
 WITHIN ONE MONTH

Some one with an affectionate dis disposition and taste for knick- knacks is requested to please step to the front and be introduced to MT. Jce V. Prochaska, sportsman, politician good roads booster, former state game warden and general live wire. Lest someone get the impression that in- NldiOus comparisons are being drawn by the mention of Joe and knick- knacks, We hasten to explain.
 Joe is endeavoring to locate local resident harboring a passionate desire to associate intimately with couple of cub bears. These bears are each eight months of age, guaranteed to cat out of the hand, and are thoroughly house. broke. They may be had fol the mere promise that they will be loved, cherished and given a Christian upbringing. They are at present re- siding in Globe, but their transporta- tion will be arranged without cost tC the consignee.
 As MT. Prochaska points out they would be valuable adjuncts to a peace full home, though the majority of Phoe- nicians are managing to struggle along without such conveniences. Fol instance. bill collectors and peddler: would hesitate to interrupt the peaceful reveries of pair of husky specimen! stunning themselves on the front veran da. One might arrange with the mai( to have one of them stroll nonchalantly into the parlor when a guest has out stayed his or her welcome. In fact, tn, fireside possibilities of a pair of bear is unlimited.
 Now. this generosity on Joe's part i not a preface to an attempt to intro duce Bruin as a household necessity 1 He is merely endeavoring to extricat himself from an embarrassing predica ment. It's like this:
 Some time ago some one brought tw' l cubs to Globe. Joe V. sees possibilitie in everything, and he conceived tn l brilliant idea of raffling them off fo | the benefit of the Red Cross. It wa done and the fire department carrie, 1 off the prize. For time. everythin; was lovely; the firemen were enchant 1 ed with the pets and the animals fra
 ternized with the firemen. The bear were fed on rabbits killed by the mem ! bers of the department
 | However, the animals grew and thei appetites kept pace. The rabbits grey l scarce and the novelty of huntin them palled upon the fire -fightin
 nimrods. It then became necessar | for the members of the department t 1 buy food for their prizes. In a yer short time the firemen, their wives an little firemen quit speaking to Joe.
 Last month bill of $42.50 was pre-
 sented to the city council for bea
 nourishment, the firemen contendin
 that, as the animals were officiall
 awarded the Globe fire department their upkeep devolved upon the cit! i Then the taxpayers quit smiling an
 began making remarks about darn fec ideas" in Joes presence.
 Now, Joe lives in Globe when h isn't residing in Phoenix and Los Ang eles. Therefore, will some kindly SOU
 with S42.50 extra per month and
 craving for brute companionship pleas
 communicate with MT. Joe V. Pro chaska.

IN SPITE IF CROWDS OF CHRISTMAS, FLU
 STILL DECREASES

Under the most adverse conditions that could have been devised, the health regulations designed to elimi- nate the influenza epidemic have prov en their worth. In spite of the throng ing of the streets and crowding of the stores and shops during the Christmas rush a material abatement of the. dis ease was marked at the close of the observation period yesterday.
 During the Yuletide season 25 new cases of influenza developed. Of this number, IS cases were from the city proper, and the remainder from the rural districts. During the same per- iod there were 8 releases from quar- antine, a remarkable showing being made by the hospitals which dis charged 19 patients. In the course of the two days, five deaths were re- ported.
 According to the figures received by the citizens committee yesterday, but 107 cases of influenza are being treat ed in the city. Approximately 20 of these cases were brought to Phoenix for treatment from surrounding dis tricts which leaves a total of S7 local residents afflicted with the disease.

Christmas Speech Attracts

PARIS. Dec. 26.-President Wilson's Christmas speech is attracting much comment, as indicating his view of the peace congress. His reference to the American chart of peace being ac- cepted by all nations concerned is un- derstood to refer to his fourteen points.
 The presidents statement that he had not found among the great leaders with whom he was now cooperating any difference of principle or funda- mental purposes is construed as show ing the favorable results of the con- ferenced uring the past ten days.
 It is poitned out in conference circles, however, that the hard work ahead is not on principles, but in defining their concrete form and determining the de tails of their application in the peace treaty.
