his new position at the head of the
militia bureau. In fact, his detail is
the first move in the direction of or

Tense and as an important arm of the

organizations with those units that
went into the American expeditionary
forces.

FURTHER EFFORT TO

Surplus foods produced by District
government institutions, including
more than 100 bushels of potatoes
raised on the Home for the Aged
farm. at Blue Plains, may be sold to
Washington consumers at less than
market prices along with the surplus
Army supplies expected to reach the
city today.
This announcement made at the Dis
trict building further added to the
indications that the COMMISSIONERS
intend to employ the Army food dis
tribution scheme as an entering
wedge for opening up other sources
of supply and lowering the cost of
living here.
