PROTECT POTASH

Some time ago the papers carried the
news that Ed. Hurle, Chairman OF the
u. s. Shipping Board, was perfecting
plans in Europe for bringing a large
supply of potash over to this country
in the little fleet which he pulls around
by the strings of Government control.
At first it was binted that this was Ger
man potash, and il was almost declared
that good Irish potato, or stalk OF
Indian corn, or even the old German
sauerkraut material re-christened
Liberty Cabbage" would wither at
such an insult. Then the publicity men
Of the Administration averred that Il
would not be German potash, but the
product of the Alsatian mines, which
have after SO year abduction, been
restored to France. Well, that was not
SO bad, although our own producers OF
potash have been doing such wonder
ful work in building up a domestic
supply of this great land invigorator,
that IL seemed to most Of us they should

MONEY GREATER NOW
Ixpendltures For December More
Than In Any Month in Pre-War
Times.

wAshin gton, d. C.-When the Amor

Lean In buying War Savings Stamps
daily and raise billions Of dollars to
ny for munitions that never reached
France, they will not in reality be
paying for those munitions but for the
saving Of 100000 American lives.
Il was not the American army In
France that forced defeat upon Ger
many In 1918; It was the enormous
production of munitions in this coun-
tyy that the German general stan
knew would soon be flowing into ac-
ticn at the front. Had it not been
tor this knowledge the Germans would
have fought through 1919.
These statements are made by Lewis
y. Franklin, head of the War Savings
and Liberty Loan organization.
"Our expenditures for December"
said Mr.. franklin, "were the largest
On record, being $4,000, 100000, a sum
almost double the total annual expen-
diture OF our Government in pre-war
times. Many people will call that pay
ing for a dead horse.
But do we realize that the German
army was never really routed? That
to the last it was fighting on foreign
soilf II was only the knowledge Of
q great stream of munitions on the
way that ended the war in 1913 in
stead of 1919, and saved the lives Of
from 100000 to 100000 American
boys."
Mr.. Franklin said the Seventh Fed
eral Reserve district, which includes
lower Michigan, has achieved a more
general distribution OF bonds than any
Of the other districts. 1t sold $50 Of
Its bonds to purchasers of $1,000 or
less as against ratio Of 40% for the
whole nation.
He argued from this that War Saw
inss Stamps should be a great sue
cess In the middle west
Charlevoix county herald., 1919-02-14

be rewarded by protection from Euro
pean competition of any sort.
The War Trade Board now announces
that France will be unable to ship
potash from her Alsatian mines to US
for the next few months as she herself
needs practically the entire supply for
agricultural purposes, so the Board
sees no possibility Of supply from that
source until June, 1919, at least, there
fore, it will be necessary that the
United States rely entirely, upon its
domestic potash production for the
coming spring season."
Well, we have struggled along so far
without the European supply, even If
at considerable disadvantage. In the
meantime our own producers are on
the verge Of being able to meet the
domestic demand, at fairly reasonable
prices. They should be encouraged in
their endeavor by the passage, at the
earliest practicable moment, OF pro-
tective law for their product. Potash
is national necessity in which we
should be nationally independent.

PACKAGES MUST BE MARK
ED AND PACKED RIGHT
TO GO RIGHT

Ways and means for checking the
waste caused by improper wrapping
and marking of express shipments are
being discussed by express employees,
in the Better Service Campaign being
conducted throughout the country by
the American Railway Express Com
pany.
Particular emphasis was laid upon
the immense number of shipments
which must be turned over to mo Mark
Bureaus" because all means OF identi-
fication have been lost as the result Of
a single tag being torn off or the wrap
ping being insecure. This evil was at
tributed largely to the poor quality Of
paper and Irvine used by some shipping
departments, as well as to carelessness
in addressing packages.
1t was pointed out that the mo Mark
Bureaus" OF the company receive many
such shipments monthly. Despite con-
slant effort to discover some means of
setting these shipments on the right
track, only small percentage can be
recovered. This brings about great
deal of dissatisfaction between the ship.

My dear Mother:
Received your letter which you wrote
on Christmas day, last night, and was
anxious to know where you spent
Christmas, expect you stayed home be-
cause wrote you that possibly | might
be home about that time. / don't know
why you haven't received more letters
between the 10th and 30th of November

in this town than before, but probably
you received them later.
We are still in Pont-a-Mousson but
hope to leave here soon for seaport.
We got horses yesterday so maybe we
will draw our guns to quarter-master
and then leave for the coast. Hope so
anyhow. hear the people in Michi-

yet in any large numbers. It's quite a
Job to return two million men and we
all can't 60 home first though expect
by June most of the men in France will
be home. We have been having fine
weather these last couple weeks, much
like spring weather and not hardly any
rain, if it keeps like this wont mind
waiting here until our turn to leave
comes. / received all the letters you
sent and also the money, mail is some
times slow in getting to us, but we get
it sometime.
I've got new job for awhile, we
have two theatres here, one of them
used to be riding-hall and the boys
have turned it into theatre, built seats
and stage, and I'm helping paint the
scenery, which is much better than
cleaning horses and hope the job will
last until we leave. We are also get

busy, but enjoy doing them so don't
mind the work.
