Equalization Board cf the Food
Administration declares a sugar
shortage has. been forestalled.
In addition, 10000 tons of beet
sugar have been procured from
California. The sugar demand
this year has been at least 200,-
600 tons greater than at the

Denial has been made by the

the distribution of army sugar.
Five hundred thousand pounds
of the 45,000,000 pounds releas-
ed by the army was allocated to
New York City alone. and pro-

made throughout the rest OF the
country. The needs of the can

WORLDS HOGS
ARE IN AMERICA
Omitted Press Service)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. -
Recent Investigations by the De-
partment of Agriculture disclose
that the United States has rela-
lively larger reserves cr live
stock than any other country in
the world. In respect to swine,
this country is easily first, but
holds second place in the num-
Der of sheep and of cattle.
1t is estimated that there are
approximately 18O.O0O.OOO swine
in the world. Of these con-
siderably more than a third are
in this country. There are prob
ably 475,OO0.0OO head of cattle
and about 500,0OO,000 head of
sheep in all Europe, Asia, Africa
Australia, North and South
America and the islands of the
seas.
Although swine are less num-
erous than cattle or sheep in the
world az large they are more
plentiful than either of the 9TH
er classes of livestock in the
United States. There are more
hogs in this country than in all
it's ten nearest competitors COM
bined. Australia leads the world
in the number of sheep, and
India takes first place in point
of cattle.
American pork has found
such great favor in Europe and
South America that in 1918 it
represented more than two
thirds of the exports of meat
from the United States. The
Department of Agriculture is
actively undertaking the con-
servation of present herds and
is conducting a campaign of
education to stimulate larger
and better production.

PASSING OF
WELL KNOWN
CITIZEN

While not unexpected entire
|ly, as he had been an invalid
many years, the sudden death of
"Doc" Francis is his rooms, yes
terday afternoon, came as a dis
tinct shock to his many friends.
To many it was supposed that
the name that was fastened to
Mr.. Francis was a sort of nick
name; but it is asserted that his
first name wa Doctor" and
that the abbrevation came ma
turally. He had resided in Ari-
zona many years, having been
sent here by the dread disease,
consumption, which had fasten-
ed itself upon him, yet against
which, aided by the balmy eli
mate of Arizona he had made a
successful fight for sixteen
years.
Mr.. Francis, who was a bar
Der by trade, working in the bar
ber shop of George Januel,: had
kept at his work right up to his
death almost. 1t is related that
he had hemorrhage day before
yesterday; but kept to work,
and was at work again yester-
day morning. But about noon
another and more violent hem
orrhage sent him to his room,
and a doctor was called; but he
was too far gone, and between
the hours of one and two o'clock
his weary spirit took it's flight.
"Doc" Francis, 'as he was
known to all, was one of the no.
blest and most charitable men
in the community. Tender heart
ed he was always open to an ap-
peal for charity, and it is stated
that hardly a day passed that
he was not appealed to for finan-
cial help, never refusing it. And
for his kindly and gentle dis
position he was idolized by chill
dren, having a large number of
friends AMONG the little folks.
He was prominent in labor
circles; and when the State La
Dor Board, one of the war activ-
tiles, created local board in No
gales, Mr.. Francis was. made it's
chairman.
Deceased leaves a brother

WASHINGTON, Sept S.
In addressing the st. Louis
Chamber of Commerce TODAY
President Wilson characterized
as Almost Contemplate Quit
ters" those who refuse to 90
through with American program
to end all wars.
Mr.. Wilson denounced most
bitterly those seeking to pre-
vent the United States Joining
the League of Nations. !.
Discussing those who oppose
the United States acting ITO
protect every little nation in the
world" the President declared:
Let them show me how thew
will keep out of war by not pro-
secting them. Let them show
me how they will prove that hav
ing gone into the enterprise
they are net almost contempt
ible cutters if they don't see
the game through. These gen
tlement are dreaming. They are
living in a past age which is
gone, and all but forgotten
when they say we can mind our
own business.
Mr.. Wilson said che had
brought from Paris a great
human document;;" but after
you hear it talked about WASH
ington for a while you woald
think it embraced but about
three or four clauses. He said
that the much discussed Article
Ten, Shantung incident and
Monroe Doctrine, with similar
disputed points, "are mere de-
tails incident to great humane
enterprise"
The luncheon was served on
the roof of the Hotel Statler.
Every table seat was taken.
Those not getting seats over
flowed into the aisles, jammed
so close many could not move.
