MISTAKE ED-DIN SAYS
BY The United Press.


C0NSTANTINOPLE. Dec 3. lDelayed)
Sultan Mehmed Vasld-Ed-Din, the new
Turkish ruler. declared In an interview
today that participation OF Turkey In
the war was ''unwise" and an "acci-
dent" and that officials guilty Of instl-
eating mlstreatment OF subject peoples
would be severely punished.
THE participation Of Turkey in the
war was an accident" the Sultan said.
1T was clearly unwise because OF the
political situation and our geographical
position. 4, The governments lack OF
foresight lead us into calamity. II
would never have happened had been
on the throne.
Il have learned with the greatest
sorrow OF the treatment OF Armenians
in certain political communities. This
Is now being reviewed and intend TO
punish all fomenters with the greatest
severity. Such misdeeds have broken
my heart. The great part OF my people
have never shared In the misdeeds at

SPECIAL EXERCISES
AT HIGH SCHOOL

Twenty-Five thousand school children
In this city. and an equally largo num-
Der down State, participated today in
what Is practically the closing func-
tions OF Food Conservation Week. So
far as could be learned at State Food
Headquarters today, there was not a
school In Delaware that did not take
part In some form OF exercise or pro-
gram, some OF these being quite elab-
crate.
At the High School each room had its
separate exercise. II was the same in
most all OF the other schools OF the city,
few general assemblies being held. The
basis OF the exercise hinged around
Herbert Hoover's message, and this
was supplemented and added to by reel
tations and addresses, blackboard Illus
tratlons and geographical maps.
In many rooms the instructor showed
by maps. the starving nations OF Eu-
rope, and why II was necessary for this
country TO save food in order that this
saving, combined with the surplus OF
food here, might be sufficient 10 Keep
European millions from dying from
hunger.
Professor Berlin had prepared a spe-
cial letter OF instruction to the teach
ers at the High School. and fhls letter
contained many timely suggestions,
why food should be saved.
In the elementary grades OF other
schools the boys and girls had been
taught pieces" to speak. showing the
necessity for general conservation In
this country.
Edmund Mitchell. Food Administra-
tor for Delaware, today is issuing the
following instructions 10 all dealers and
users OF sugar:
"startlng with December 4, sugar
certificates are no longer
required. Counter sales registers need
no longer be kept. You VIII, however,
be expected to send TO this office, your
register completed up 10 December /.
"The new rules in the use OF sugar
apply 10 all wholesalers. retailers. man
hotels, restaurants. board
ing houses and other consumers.
'No certificates are required In pur-
chasing sugar for canning or preserv-
ing purposes, but the following rules
are still In effect:
'No wholesaler, retailer. consumer
or manufacturer is 20 have In stock at
one time more than thirty days sup
ply OF sugar.
"Ice cream dealers may use sugar In
the manufacture OF ices and sherbets. In
fact, the sale and manufacture OF Ices
and sherbets should be encouraged on
account OF the shortage OF milk and
cream.
There Is no change IN the wheat

sold without substitutes.
Hotels and other eating houses VIII
still confne their wheat bread service
