II earnestly hope that every one
who has bought Liberty Bonds VIII
try-to keep them for the period OF
the war at least. If each and
every purchaser keeps his Liberty
Bond he helps to protect the credit
of the Government by maintaining
the market for the bonds at par,
which is very helpful thing in war
time, and he also renders more es-
sential service to our soldiers and
sailors in the field by practicing
those economies and savings which
release materials and labor neces
sary to the support, if not the very
life, of our Army and Navy. Sec

As malaria carrying mosquitoes
can put soldiers out of the fighting
almost as effectively as German bull
let's, the Sanitary Corps of the Amer
lean Red Cross has declared war on
anopheles around the southern can
tonments. In cooperation with the
Red Cross various agencies are pay
ing especial attention to all swamps
and mosquito breeding pools and wa
ter holding barrels, not merely in
the camp zones, but in and around
nearby towns which soldiers visit.
This protective work of draining and
oiling not only will protect the
troops, but will do much to ensure
that malaria does not attack the
large visiting populations around the
camps.

INTENSIVE ADVERTISING
CAMPAIGN is PLANNED
Newspapers in Every Part Of State
Carrying Advertising for W.S.S.

For the first time since the war
started, the newspapers of the State
of Utah are being paid for advertis-
ing a bond or w. S. S. drive. Here
tofore the papers either had to donate
the space or secure public spirited ad-
ertisers to use their space to adver-
tise the various bond and w. S. S.
drives.
Starting with last week The Pee
ord and every other country paper
weekly, semi-weekly, tri-weekly and
daily-has received an order to pub
lish series of advertisements calling
the attention Of the people of Utah
to the fact that the honor of the State
was at stake il the full amount Of
w. S. S. was not bought. Also the
daily papers Of the larger cities are
carrying paid advertising.
The matter Of the advertising for
the country papers is being handled
by Secretary r. T. Porte of the Utah
State Press Association, who is also
publicity director Of the Utah w. S.
S. Committee.
The Record has always given will
lingly of its space and news columns
to all war work, and glad to do it,
yet it has always felt that part of
the burden should be borne by the
government, just as pay is asked for
posters, circulars and other advertis-
ing stuff which has been so widely
used. The total cost of this advertis-
ing campaign is not great deal, but
the spirit of the idea is so much more
that The Record and the rest of the
papers of the state feel like doing all
that can possibly be asked to keep the
honor of Utah safe, and all the w. S.
S. pledges paid-and more. The few
dollars received for the advertising is
nothing compared to the conviction
on the part of at least some Of our
government officials that advertising
space is valuable, just as valuable as
the merchandise of a merchant and
manufacturer, and should be paid for.
If there is anything the w. S. S.
Committee of Utah wants Of The
Record, it has only to ask it, and if it
is in our power to give, the committee
may have it. And the people Of the
State should be just as willing to
back them up by buying more than
their share of stamps. The war has
been won, our boys helped, and now
need your help.

KEPT PLEDGE
TO SEND BREAD
American Nation Maintained A.
lied Loaf Through Self
Denial at Home Table.
AvERTED EUROPEAN DESPAIR.
With Military Demands Upon Ocean
chipping Relieved, World 10 Able
to Return to Normal White
Wheat Bread.

Since the advent of the latest wheat
crop the only Limitation upon Amerl-
can exports TO Europe has been the
shortage OF shipping. Between July
and October 10 we shipped G5,0SO,305
bushels. II this rate should continue
until the end of the fiscal year we will
have furnished the Allies with more
than 237 100000 bushels of wheat and
dour In terms of wheat.
The result OF increased production
and conservation efforts In the United
States has been that with the cessa
tion Of hostilities we are able to re-
urn to normal wheat diet. Supplies
that have accumulated IN Australia,
Argentine and other hitherto lnacces
slble markets may be tapped by ships
released from transport service, and
European demand for American wheat
probably viii not exceed our normal
surplus. There In wheat enough avail.
able to have white loaf ut the com.
mon table.
But last yenr the tale was different.
Only by the Greatest possible saving
and sacrifice were we able TO keep
steady stream Of wheat and -four NOV.
ing across the sea. We found our.
selves at the beginning of the harvest
year with an unusually short crop.
Even the most optimistic statisticians
figured that we had bare surplus of
l0.000,000 bushels. And yet Europe
was facing the probability Of a bread
fnmine--and In Europe bread Is by far
the most important article In the diet.
All of this surplus had left the
country early In the fall. BY the first
Of the year we had managed to ship q
little more than b0,0O0.0 900 bushels BY
practicing the utmost economy at
home-by wheatless days, wheatless
meals, heavy substitution of other
cereals and by sacrifice at almost
every meal throughout the country.
In January the late Lord Rhondda,
then BrItish Food Controller. cabled
that only II we sent an additional 7B..
100000 bushels before July l could ne
take the responsibility of assuring his
people that they would be fed.
The response OF the American PEG.
ole was $4,000. 900 bushels safely deliv.
sied overseas between January I and
July /. Out of q harvest which gave
10 only 20,000,0O0 bushels surplus we
actually shipped 141 .O00, 900 bushels
Thus did America fulfll her pledge
that the Allied bread rations could be
maintained. and already the American
people are demonstrating that. with
an awakened war conscience, last
years figures viii be bettered.

NEWSPAPER MAN,
IS ASPHYXIATED

Henry Steel Morrison. newspaper

inhaling Illuminating gas. His body
was found i'm his apartment. 1879 Con
neCticut avenue northwest, by Leo
Geschickster. Coroner hewitt issued a
certificate of accidental death.
When Morrison was found a small
gas stove in the room was still light
ed. The rubber hose connecting the
gas jet with the stove had small
hole in it, caused, it is believed, by
the tubing coming in contact with the
flame.

SHARP DECREASE
IN GERMAN BIRTH
RATE IS REPORTED

The birth rate in n single district
in Germany decreased from 100000
in 1914 to 10000 in 1916. says a re-
port in the Vossicke Zeitung, OF n
meeting of the Germany Society for
Children's Therapeutics, at which
Prof. Schlossmann gave a lee
ture on children's diseases and the
war.
He mentioned the alarming decrease
in the birth rate in the Dusseldorf:
district from 100000 in 1914 to &c, O,OOC
in 1916. and declared a similar de-
crease had been noted in the Rhine
province.
all parts of Germany new born chill
dren are in very good condition in
spite OF the small food rations avail
able for the mothers.
The mortality of infants Is rela-
lively and absolutely favorable. a con-
sequence of the imperial grants t.
nursing mothers which have encour
aged the natural feeding of infants,
and, further, of the reduction of the
overfeeding OF infants. which was
the cause of so many deaths in peace
time. Rickets and eczema have near
ly disappeared, and there are fewer
cases OF parasitic skin diseases and
of congenital syphilis. The reports
OF medical men examining school re
cruits are favorable, but after the
tenth year OF age a reduction in the
increase in weight is noticed. Infec-
tious diseases have not increased in
consequence Of the prolonged war,
nor have they assumed a malicious
character. Many infections were
caused by newly founded creches and
children's homes, which were not
furnished or managed in a hygienic
manner.
The malignancy OF infectious cases
accepted at children's hospitals is due
to the fact that medical assistance
is called in too late. In the case OF
phthisis It IS different; that disease
has increased in numbers and gravity
even in well-to-do circles. The
speaker regarded as the causes for
this the scarcity of fat, the decrease
in cleanliness owing to the scarcity
OF soap, and the bad housing condi-
tions.
