GRAFT AND WASTE
MARKED BUILDING OF
SHERMAN, TESTIMONY

COLUMBUS, Oct. 31.-From what
witnesses said Wednesday to a sub
committee of the national house Of
representatives, contractors who con-
structed Camp Sherman had thor
oughly mastered their mathematics.
The camp was built upon the cost
plus" plan, under which the contractor
received a percentage of what was
spent. The contractors, therefore,
according to witnesses. calculated
that the more they spent, the more
they would obtain, and they spent
literally, wastefully, extravagantly,
pouring out the money in a golden
stream. All this was going on in the
summer of 1917. Witnesses said that
to complain meant loss Of positions.
The star witness was Carl M. Watts
of Columbus, team foreman under the
two contracting firms which built the
camp. A. Bentley and Sons company
of Toledo, and the D. w. McGrath
company of Columbus.
On the other hand, Major General E.
F. Glenn, commander at the camp,
denied knowledge Of waste of time or
material.
The subcommittee conducting the
inquiry consists of Representative J.
c. Mckenzie, Republican, Illinois !;
Roscoe Mccullough, Republican. Ohio,
and Frank Deremus, Democrat, Mich.
igan.
Mr. Watts declared in response to
questioning by Representative Nc
Cullouch, that he had entered upon
his employment with the idea of OBJ
tanning a full days work done, but
had been called to the office of the
contractors and told that he was too
active and would have to go slower -
His answer, the witness said, was that
he hadn't understood"
From that time on, he said, he
tried to do the work that way

Van Camps Milk comes from high-bred
cows in seven great dairying districts. The
cows are regularly inspected and kept in
sanitary way.
Close to each dairy we have condensery.
There the fresh milk is placed in a vacuum.
Then low heat is applied until half of the
water evaporates.
The result is milk as thick as thick
cream. 1t is twice as rich in butter fat
ordinary milk.
You use it as cream for your coffee. You
dilute it somewhat for your cereals. Add

Milk like Van Camps can never be pro-

supply the grocers there. Then we an

Safety Above All

This is sterilized milk, utterly gern-free.
The dangers which lurk in bottled milk are
absent.
1t is economical. It saves all waste Keep
open what you wish. You will always have
milk in plenty, yet never will have too much.
This is the modern method of milk supply.
You will adopt it when you know Van

other evaporated. Learn what we have
done in 20 years to bring you perfect milk.

the factories are not yet turning out
