Secretary of Labor Wilson, at whose
invitation the scale committees of the
minors and operators will meet with
him here Tuesday, declined to comment
on the negotiations, and continued to
hope that he won be able to bring
about peace. Official Washington held
to the view, however, that the strike
was inevitable. The meeting will be
behind closed doors.

nesday unless the striking longshoremen
return to work, Arthur Williams Fed
eral Food Administrator, announced
y-stelday. Mr.. Wlnlams has made an
effort to have the men move the food
stutts, but without success.
Practically no sugar will be available
at sloies by the middle of the week,
because OF the inability of the re-
tlneries to manufacture the raw sugar.
sh ps almost under the rehneries'
windows, Mr.. Williams added
The Food Admins .rator addressed an
appeal to candy and chewing gum
manufacturers to release Whatever
surplus over a thirty days supply they
may have on hand. He said ne believed
m this way large quantity Of sugar
would be made available TO consumers.
George A. labrskie, chairman of the
Sugar Equalization Board, reported
twenty sugar-laden ships lying in this
pert with little hope of being unloaded
until the strike ends
DR.. Royal S. Copeland. Heath Com
missioner said last NIGHT that he had
consulted with leaders of the strikers
during the day and had practically OBJ
tanned assurances from them that thew
would aid in having the foodstutfs,
particularly the sugar, removed from
the ships and docks.
Grocers are selling onl" half a pound
OF sugar to each customer, Peter n.
Amor, president of the Retail Grocers'
Assoelauon, said. Mr.. Amor said re-
tallers are obtaining about rs per cent
or less of their normal requirements
Customers use crafty attempts to Sc
cure sugar, he said They peer into
the store at different hours of the da
when different clerks are on duty. and
manage to obtain little sugar from
each. He declared that the present
S tuatlon warrants the installation of a
card rationing system for sugar.

Sugar Situation TO Be
" orse, Says DR.. Taylor
Senate Committee Is Told That
Making Of Soft Drinks Is One
Reason for Present Scarcity

WASHINGTON, Oct lS.-No relief
from the present sugar situation is in
sight and the probabilities are that
conditions will become worse the Sen
ate Agriculture Committee was told to-
day by DIR. Alonzo Taylor, of the De-
partment of Agriculture
Consumption has increased about t8
Per cent, compared with last year, DR..
Taylor said, due largely to Increased
manufacture of candy and soft drinks
TO satisfy demand resulting from pro
hlbitlon. Other causes given by the
Wltne 5 were rebound from wartime
repression and extravaganza due TO
present prosperity.
DR.. Taylor told the committee the
price OF sugar had nothing to do with
consumption in the United S ates, as
the peop'e were engaged in an "orgie of
spending" and were not trying to econ
omzc.
There is an increased demand for
sugar in Europe, he said, and If this
country is to get sufficient supplies it
will have to bid against Europe, with d
resulting advance in prices.
George A. zabriskie president of the
United States Sugar Equalization
Board, and William A. Glasgow. the
boards attorney, told the committee
that retention of the licensing provis-
ion in the bin continuing the board in
operation during 1920 was ''absolutely
Imperative" if the board was to func-
tion successfully.
"lf Congress is determined that we
oue to buy the Cuban ca go it has got
to give the board power to buy it," Mr.
Glasgow said.
We've got to control the refiners in
the United States in order to accom-
phsh any good by purchasing that
crop
Then you contemplate handling this
matter as you did during the war;"

RED CROSS PLAYS DETECTIVE.

RED CROSS PLAYS DETECTIVE.
The slogan made famous during the
war has had another try-out in peace
time and the efficiency of Red Cross
organization is again proved.
One day not long ago a New York
er travelling westward engaged in con-
v%ersation on the train with a young
officer just returned from overseas.
The latter gave the older man his
card asking that the man execute a
small service for him on return to the
metropolis. But when the e%asterner
was about to carry out his promise
he found to his deep chagrin that he
had lost the officers card. His only
clue to the identity of the Minneso-
tan was his remembrance of the last
name, the fact that the young man
had spoken of his wife and his par
ents who lived in or near Minneapolis.
After considerable thought, he
wrote the Red Cross in Minneapolis
explaining the situation and saying
that, as he was anxious to carry out
the mission, it would be a great favor
if the Red Cross could help him To-
cate the man. Of course the home
service workers took up the case at
once and telephoned every family of
that name in the city asking if they
had had a son just returned from
France. his effort proved unavail-

that during a recent institute, one of

WINTER FEEDING OF CATTLE.
(By Murray E. Stebbins)

= ~
l am not prophecying a long hard
winter but I would advise the stock
men and farmers to prepare for the
winter sc that they can meet the most
adverse weather conditions. The right
way to start stock in the winter is in
good, strong condition, and the cheap
est way to winter stock in the long
run is to keep them in that condition
all winter and reduce the losses to a
minimum.
In a good many cases the winter
feed bill will take all the 1920 prof
its, but considered over a period of
years, the man who stays in the bust
ness will more than make good his
present loss. Large numbers of breed
ing cattle have been shipped out which
will place a good price on the ones
left and ip this way the sticker will
make good.
The present price of hay and con-
centrates, such as grain and cotton
seed cake, seem almost p%rohibitive. In
the purchase Of these feeds the best
should be purchased as the freight
rates + just as high on feed of poor
quality as feed of good quality. Very

NEW GERM FOE OF MAN.

An investigation just completed by
Surgeon Edward Francis of the U. S.
public health service adds another to
the list of disease germs afflicting
mankind. The germ which bears the
name of bacterium tularense, was first
isolated by Drs. Mccoy and Chaplin
OF the U. S. public health service, as
the c%ausative agent in a plague-like
disease of rodents. 1t was not then
known that the same germ also in
fects man.
DR.. Francis now finds that bacter-
ium tularense is the cause of "deer-
fly %fever,"'a disease occurring among
the rural population of Utah and mi
tiated '(according to. popular belief
by a fly bite on some exposed surface
of the body. The site of the bite and
the neighboring lymph glands become
tender and inflamed, and they COM
monty ~suppurate. A fever, like that
in ordinary blood poisoning, develops
and lasts for three to six weeks. The
patient becomes very sick and is con-
fined to bed. The first case known to
have ended fatally was reported in
1919.
Thus far something like two dozen
cases of this disease occurred in Mil
lard county, Utah, in each of the
years 1917, 1918 and 1919. Whether
the disease prevails elsewhere is not
yet known, but the announcement of
the public health service is expected
to direct the attention of physicians
ito cases of this kind.
