RESTRICTIONS ON USE
OF BEEF REMOVED
Rush OF Cattle To Packing Centres,
Due To Drought. Cause OF
Lifting OF Ban

All restrictions on the use of beef
have been raised by the Food Admins
tration. The only suggestion made by
the administration is in relation TO the
kinds of meat used. The public is ad-
vised TO refrain from the use of heay-
Ter meats which would be suitable for
expectation 10 the soldiers at the
front. The public is free TO use all
other kinds of beef as it sees fit.
The reason for the order is that
drought and lack of foodstuffs has
caused a rush of Southwestern cattle
TO the beef packing centres. With the
present restrictions in force there
there would be little or no market for
this product, and it is 10 utilize it that
the restrictions are removed.

I for Senators and Representatives who
/ in their biggest and broadcast capacity
are the representatives in Congress as
I sembled Of the United States-nol
merely Of their districts.
The League believes that there art
many men in the present Congress:
who do not measure up 10 the stan
dard Of vision. balanced judgment
sound common sense ana broad gen
eral experience which proclaim the
statesman. Every patriotic citizen
should be willing 10 adjourn politics
and 10 decide the question of whom be
or she will vote for, solely according To
the merit OF the candidates between
whom there is a choice.
IF the Candidate for Congress in
your district is a man who, by his
votes or attitude on preparedness OF
war measures. has acquitted himself
badly in the present Congress, it is
your duty to vote for his opponent at
the polls. In case your former Con
gresham has made a bad record on
preparedness and war measures, but
now proclaims himself TO be loyal and
in favor Of a war until victory, ii is
better TO supplant him with man who
has foresight instead of hindsight.
If your present Congressman has
the vision and craftsmanship which en-
abled him to make a good record on
preparedness and war measures, il is
your duty 10 re-elect him.
If none of the candidates have been
in Congress before, examine carefully
into their character, ability and ca
pacity. and vote for the man who gives
the best promise of effective service
and usefulness.
Remember that statesmen should
be leaders of thought and action, and
that they should be possessed of the
patriotism, courage and resolution to
act according TO well-defned principles
and policies. They must not be men
whose only measure or test is politi-
cal expedience or safety rather Ghan
what is the right thing TO do.
do your part! The way in which
you can work is to write to, or speak
with. newspaper editors, and to lead

in your district making them realize
sharply that the need of the nation is
the selection of the men who possess
the strength of character and demon
strated ability, combined with uncon-
ditional loyalty and determination to
prosecute the war 10 victory, that will
enable them TO be Of real service to
the nation, whose problems are such
as to try the very souls of the best men
that can be elected.
"Endeavors should also be made to
stimulate action on the part of every
civic, farming. labor,

same end. This can be done by resolu-
tons or memorials, which should be
