And Mr.. Cox voiced the sentiments
of hundreds Of other good business men
and workmen in Kenosha who are anx-
ious to see the Housing Drive succeed
because it will give them a chance to
have something they, had almost de-
SPARED of having, namely a home with
a living room, kitchen and everything.
Accordingly factory employees in all
parts of the city are beginning to
show a renewed interest in the Hous-

They are wondering if the merchants
they patronize are valuing Their. pa
tronage sufficiently highly to keep it
and increase it by making them per-
manent customers instead of transient
shoppers.

Whipped Germany.

London, July 9--sfDon't forget it

war;" Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig
declared yesterday in speech at New

was the British empire that won this
war. ] don't wish to particularize, but
you know our Russian friends let us
down and the Italians didn It do very
great deal then. Our French friends
made the best Of it, but then they
really had very hard job at the be-
ginning. For the last two years Eng

Blatz Brewing Company
Agent Openly Declares He
Is Ready To Serve Pa
irons With 234 Product.
FINDS A READY MARKET
Reports Declare That Beer Is Again
Flowing Over the Counters In Several
Former Beer Market
Takes a slump.

There was q real furry in the war.
time prohibition situation in Kenosha
this morning. 1t started with rumor
that two and three-fourths per cent
beer was once more flowing from the
spigots at several of the former saloons
and the rumor spread like wildfre.
When traced down at various down
town saloons, the former bar keeps"
declared they knew nothing definite,
but that they had heard that the Blatz
Brewing Company was ready to sell
two and three-fourths per cent beer
and that the agency here had large
supply of it on hand.
The agent OF the Blatz Brewing Com
pany was reached on the telephone.
Are you selling any two and three
fourths per cent beer, was the ques-
ton put to him.
Yes, as fast as We can get il"
.Yas tf answer He alse, cinSd
That tney were making t.silyeries Of
The product as they had done prior to
the first of July. Unsubstantiated re-
ports declared that many saloons were
openly selling this or other two and
three-fourths beer, but no actual ex-
ample Of this has been found.
Agents of other brewery agents de-
clared that the bottom had dropped
out of the near-beer market" and that
while it had been fairly good up until
this week, a strange slump had come
and that they were unable to account
for it on any grounds except that the
"real article" was being passed out
to the trade some place or other. Sew
eral of the saloonkeepers declared that
many Milwaukee dealers had purchased
government stamps and that a similar
step might be expected here.
The sale Of the two and three-foprths
product is being halted by several COM
panies on the grounds that fine of
one thousand dollars may be incurred
for each and every sale, while others
declare that the law means that fine
of one thousand dollars viii be as
sessed no matter how much is sold.
Most of the dealers and brewery
agents are still hesitant about the affair
and admit that they are waiting for
more explicit orders from headquarters.
Up to a late hour this afternoon the
government officials had fled no com
plants relative to situations in Keno
sha. 1t is understood that a large
number of them are present here and
the dealers are patiently waiting what
action viii be taken in the new state
of affairs.

Washington, July 9-The relations Of

the subject which interested today the
House Subj Committee investigating
the conduct of the war. The packers
and Brigadier General Kiskern of the
Quartermaster Corps, who held confer
ences which resulted in the War De-
partment declining to market the mil
lions of pounds Of beef, will be called
by the committee. Secretary Baker is
said to have approved the sale Of the
meat abroad and the holding of the
canned vegetables in order to stabilize
the market. Colonel A. M. Davis,
Quartermaster Corps, told the commit
tee that his approval was later with
drawn. Colonel Davis explained that
the $100,000,000 worth of surplus
canned vegetables was added to the
army rations to ease the minds of cam

Chicago Co. To Ask Park
Board To Pay For Lumber
In the Simmons Play
Ground Pavilion.
BOARD DOUBTS LIABILITY
n1eetings Of the Board This Evening
Expected To Bring Final Action On
Old Claim Following Purchase Of
Equipment at Bathing Beach.

The Board of Park Commissioners
this evening are going to decide wheth
er or not Kenosha is "good enough
fellow" to give some one ten thousand
dollars. At the meeting this evening
the old claim Of the Baden, Peterson,
Cook company Of Chicago against the
city is to be considered The company
has claim Of $4,000 which is alleged
to- be the value of certain lumber which
was used in the construction of the
big pavilion on Simmons Play Ground.
The pavilion was originally built as a
private venture by William Frazier and
later on when the Island was turned
over to the city for park purposes and
became Simmons Play Ground Fra
zier transferred his rights to the prop
erty along the beach, then under lease
to the Park Board The building went
right along with the property and after
flsp transfer had been made the Chi
cage company came in with its claim
for the money. The matter has been
hanging fire for some time.
1T is impossible for me to see where
there is the slightest liability on the
part Of the Park Board to pay this
claim said President Epstein Of the
Board this morning, "My idea of this
is that this company failed to protect
its own interests and while the COM
pany may have money coming from
someone it is not from the Board of
Park Commissioners. If we had every
desire in the world to take care Of
these people it would be impossible for
us to do it for the excellent reason
that the Park Board hasn't ten thous-
and dollars for this or any other pur-
pose.
The meeting of the. Board this even
ing promises to be taken up largely
with the discussion of this claim. There
is no other business OF Importance to
come up. The plans for the proposed
comfort station out in the Bond s
Woods park are not as yet completed
and the Board will probably have a
special meeting later on in the month
for the consideration of these plans.
