PLENTY OF SUGAR
TO CAN fruit, IS
WA1TLES' WORD
Administrator Says 1t Is Saw
ing to Conserve in This
Way and He Wants
It Done.

Nebraska's allotment of sugar for
October is 4,22S0O0 pounds, accord
ing to information received by Cur
don w. Wattles, federal food ad-
ministrator. The amount is a little
more than the September allowance
and will be absorbed in the demands
of the various manufacturers. The
allotment includes sugar for canning,
manufacturing purposes and bakeries,
but does not include sugar for can
ming in excess of household use.
Additional sugar will be given Ne
braska y for canning purposes upon
proper Showing. The Nebraska al
lotment is made on the pound per
person basis and will be distributed
on this basis through the retailers.
ANY sugar needed for canning pur-
poses will be in excess of this amount
and will be granted upon application"
say the Washington advices.
"We do not wantzany loss of fruit
because of the inability of hodse-
holders to get sufficient sugar and
rather than have such loss, advances
will be made from the November and
December quotas" says Wattes.
Every housewife should can stuff
cient stuff to carry through the win
ter. 1t will be the cheapest conserva-
ton imaginable and at the same time
render great service to our coun-
+ry"

Morris Levy Offers to
Increase Fund Ten Per Cent

Morris Levy has again come to
the front with an offer to pay 10 per
cent of all money subscribed and COL
lected in Omaha for the relief Of Jew
ish war sufferers during the year 1918.
In 1917 more than $l0,0O0,000 was
raised for this cause and in that cam
paign in different parts of the United
States, leaders in the Jewish COM
munities gave 10 per cent OF the
amounts raised in their respective
communities. In some instances the
percentage was given on moneys
raised in the entire state and in two
cases on money raised in much larger
territories. julius Rosenwald Of Chi
cago gave 10 per cent of the entire
100000 raised in the United States.
This year, so far as the local COM
mittee has been informed, Morris
Levy is the first man to renew his
10 per cent offer for the 1918 CAM
paign. The committee estimates that
it will raise in Omaha in excess of
100000, which means that Mr.. Levy
contribution to war relief this year
will approximate $4,000. In 1917 the
committee raised by subscription in
excess of $55,0O0.
The campaign is now being made
and will close with the services on
Yom Kippur day.

Peace Is Approaching

London, Sept. Notwithstanding

is nearer than is generally supposed,
according to an address made by the
chancellor before the trades unionist
leaders in Germany, says a dispatch
to the Exchange Telegraph from Co.
penhagen.
The chancellor declared that both
the German government and army
leaders desired an understanding and
peace.

81 will not say Omaha isn't going
to go over the top in the Salvation
Army war fund drive, but we are not
satisfied with the cash fund as it
stands this late in the week." was the
comment Friday of DR.. Hugh A.
Knowles, directing the drive.
MANY of our team captains have
not reported. We understand they
are still at work. But from reports
coming to the headquarters the re-
spouse given their efforts has not
been satisfactory. They have worked
hard, their cause is splendid and has
popular favor, but the contributions,
especially those in the hundreds of
dollars, have not been satisfactory.
There is still another day of the
drive left Many have not yet been
solicited. Our headquarters at 220
South Fifteenth street is open day
and night and they are urged to get
in touch with us that we might get
their contributions.
One Day Left.
II am not discouraged, because /
can not conceive of Omaha falling
down. Our fund isn't large, but it
isn't growing fast enough and there
is only one day left"
Only $10071.3l of Omaha's $4,000
goal has been collected for the Sal
vation Army war fund.
Only two of the 20 teams which
canvassed the entire downtown dis
trict during the week have reported
One had $l,400, the other about
