New Crop Allows Larger Measure of Sugar Per Month to Each
 Individual.
WORD FROM HOOVER
Local Food Administrator Issues Instruction for a Larger Sugar
 Allowance.

Individual consumption of sugar, effective today, is three pounds per month. The allowance per person heretofore has been two pounds.
 Assigning reasons for the increas- ed monthly allowance, MT. Hoover in a telegram to Federal Food Admin istrator Bradley, says: The rapid manufacture of the new crop of beet sugar in the West and the new crop of Louisiana can sugar in the South, together with the freer railway trans portation conditions, the reductions that we made in the allowance of sugar in the manufacturing trades and the patrioticA conservation in the past four months, enables us to in- crease the household allowance of sugar from two1pounds per person per month to three pounds per per son per month, with the same ration to public eating houses as from No vember 1st.
 This makes good our promise to increase the household allowance of sugar at the earliest possible mo- ment that our supplies would justify, and make it possible for the house. holder to more freely use the apple, cranberry and grapefruit products and to use the fruits canned during the summer without sugar. The reg Ilations are also revised to the ex- tent that any person may purchase his whole monthly allowance at one time if he so desires, that is. any family may purchase a months sup ply for the entire family in one pur- chase from the retail trades"
 Further, MT. Hoover says:
 "The temporary cessation of the cereal movement of the country due to stoppage of exports to accrue ar my tonnage has caused greater ability for internal transportation than would otherwise be the case and we do not feel that with ability to make distribution we have any right to hold up supplies to the house holder and we are confident that we can continue on this basis for some months to come from the sup plies which we have in prospect. as Cuban crop estimates enlarged sup plies and wooden ships promise the transportation so that with these conditions we should be able to main tain Allied supplies"

They Line Beaches as Re- suit of Oil Discharged from the Wreck of
 Sophia.
ARE UNABLE TO FLY
John Lund, IT,, Believes with a Higher Tide, More Bodies Will Be
 Recovered.

There are thousands and thou sands of ducks dead or dying on the beaches for miles to the wind- ward of the Princess Sophia wreck said Game Warden John Lund, Jr., who returned on his boat the Sc vance last night.
 "The ducks have roasted in close to the beaches at night and have been caught there by the heavy fuel oil from the wreck which came in with the tide and wind. The oil has caught their wings and gummed their feathers so they are unable to fly" tt.e v.1 4t
 MT. Lund explained that the req. son the searcbers were not finding many bodies of the wreck victims now is the fact that the tide has not been as high since the disaster as it was the night the Sophia foundered The bodies were probab- ly carried high onto the beaches and were then covered with snow as the tide receded. There has been about two feet of snow along the beaches, and it has dirfted in places higher than that. As the tide Is now be- coming higher each day, Mir. Lund Is of the opinion more bodies would be recovered.

A Washington dispatch to thsyG Grand

If congress has gone Republican,
Michigan will gain its greatest official
advantage in the house of representa-.
tives. Here Cong. Joseph w. Fordney
Of Saginaw will become chairman OF

Entering upon his eleventh continuous
term in the house. Cong. Fordney will
thus find himself in position of max
imum vantage. He will succeed to all
Of the responsibilities which have at.
tached to Cong. Kitchin. Next to the
speakership this is by far the most
important place in the house organiza
ton. Since revenue legislation must
originate in the house under the con.
stitution-and since 1t originates in
the ways and means committee under
the procedure of the house this
means that the great problem OF work

In Republican house, Cong. Mapes
of Grand Rapids, will become chair.
man, either of the committee on ''elec
tion of president, vice president and
representatives in congress-" or chair
man of the committee on the Dis
trict Of Columbia" Each Is of equal
importance. In the latter position
Cong. Mspes would virtually become
mayor of Washington" since the cap
ital city is under exclusive congress
sional jurisdiction
Cong. j. M G. Smith of Michigan
would probably become chairman of
the committee on labor. Cong. Nc.
laughing of Muskegon would become
ranking member of the committee on
agriculture. Cong. Hamilton-the dean
of the Michigan delegation in point #
service (now starting his twelfth
term would become ranking member
of the committee on inter state ard

Michigan would move up several points
in the committee on naval affairs"
