EVERY PERSON SHOULD
SEE THIS PATRIOTIC FILM
FOR RED CROSS BENEFIT

Every patriot and every pro-Ger-
man should be at the Rex theater
next Tuesday, either matinee or eve
ming, to witness that great lesson
in loyalty, "The Man Without a
Country"
The management of the Rex has
secured this nationwide noted pic
ture for a return engagement and
turned it over to the Red Cross chap
ter without one cent Of expense. The
theater, lighting operator and all
help employed at the Rex has been
placed at the disposal Of the Red
Cross for this day.
1.-THE Man Without a Country
is an actual incident. 1t is the story
of young United States army Off
Ger, Lieut.. Philip Nolan, who was a
pacifist and who was tried for trea-
son for uttering the words, oh
the United States; I wish I may
never hear of the United States
again"
1t is a patriotic masterpiece after
the famous classic of literature of
the same name, contributed by Ed
ward Everett Hale in 1868. Lloyd
Lenergan wrote the present-day ver-
sion which stars Florence La Badie
and H. E. Herbert.

DRASTIC LAW DEALS
WITH INTERFERENCE:
GREGORY IN WARNING

Washington, April 26.-Warning
has been given by Attorney General
Gregory that acts of sabotage or de-
struction of any property which
might result in interfering with
wars conduct, now are punishable
under the new Federal sabotage act
and that the department of justice
plans to act against violators.
The act is broad in it's application,
said the statement, because ."it in
cludes every possible kind of sup
plies of a nature which could be used
any of the Allies in the prosecution
Of the war; it includes not only the
finished articles, but all parts and
ingredients.
"This BILL" said the attorney gen.
eral, "practically protects articles
and supplies of every character, the
whole products of agriculture and
industry in the United States. Nor
it is necessary in prosecution un-
der this act to prove that the per-
son guilty OF injuring or destroying
any war material or war premises or
war utilities intended to interfere
with the prosecution of the war. It
is sufficient to prove that he had
reason to believe his act might in
jure, interfere with, or obstruct the
United States or one of the Allies
in preparing for or carrying on the
war
"The fact that the act or injury
or destruction was not committed to
benefit the enemy or for the purpose
of hampering the prosecution of the
war, will furnish no excuse in a pro-
secution under this act"

FOOD ADMINISTRATOR

.
ss Mrs. A.: e.. Whiting, county chair
woman Of the Council of Defense, in
keeping with the program Of the de-
partment4of agriculture, is urging
the use Of potatoes, in view Of the
large surplus and the certain waste
of good food, that will result If the
condition is not observed. =,
i Larger cities than Bemidji !, are
paying attention to, this suggestion
and the matter Is being taken UP
in the smaller cities and towns
throughout the state.
The -four registration is also just
starting, the idea being to obtain q
list of the available -four in the coun-
try. Aefew counties in Minnesota
hove already made a survey of the
flour available and in various locaait-
les boarding has, been discovered.
People acquired the -four in a per-
fectly natural way and will turn 1t
into the government when asked. It
is asserted there will be enough -four
to go around If each limits himself
to six pounds of wheat per month.
