Secretary Tumulty Explains
What President Thinks
About 1t.

by Associated PreSSl .,.slt y Hst.sfl
WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.-President
Wilson has signed the McNary bill
ontinuing the United States Sugar
Equalization board through 1920, IL
was announced today at the White
house that his signature had been Al
tached before midnight last night.
Secretary Tumulty in making the an
nouncement issued this statement:
The President has signed the
J sugar control bill The bill con
fers discretion on The President
in the matter Of purehasi ns silgag
from e)uba. It Is doubY Yfiif whether ),
if:wiH be praeticaf le or wise for
the President tY exercise the
power conterreG~ao far as the pur- S
chase and distribution OF sugar
are concerned"
Some OF the Cuban sugar Hss a.
ready been purchased and there IS no
centras control over sugar In Cuba as
there was last year and It might there
fore b. impossible for the government
now TO step in and purchase the sugar
without increasing the price to the
consumer. The bill continues the n
censing powe ralso and this power
may be used to assist in controlling the
profiteering among aistributors
Much Cuban sugar is coming in
now and ! the Indications are that
prices have reached their peak and
that there will be a tendency for
prices to fell within the nexl few
weeks.

THEM RESOLUTIONS
(By The Deacon)

(bp ne Dedcon)
Funny institution
Is New Years resolution;
Funny, very funny,
You resolve TO save money,
Or to quit the weed.
Or let your whiskers go to seed,
Or you say you'll quit slang uses,
Or quit personal abuses;
If in gossip your expert,
You'll your very best exert
To fight shy o things you hear.
Howe'er truthful they appear;
You resolve to treat each other
AS sister or brother
But chestnut from the sages
is the human, through the ages,
A resolve, soon as ye make it
Finds an argument to break it,
But dis year, you and me
Can resolve. and we can see
Our resolution stronger,
Firm and purposeful, the longer
We travel from the past,
For this year, by He7k's. the last
That we need resolve or dicker
Bout the quitdn' of red ticker.
