Dempsey Cuts
MONDAY Lunch

Atlantic City, N. j., June 8. -
The noon hour dinner bell no lon
ger rings for Jack Dempsey, The
worlds heavyweight champion to-
day was placed on a restricted
diet and his eating was reduced
to two meals day, breakfast and
diner. How long this order OF
things will last depends upon the
speed and manner in which he
takes off weight.
The order cutting Dempsey to
two meals day was issued follow
ing his enforced layoff from box
ing due to the reopening of the
cash over his left eye. Lack of
work with the gloves, his hand
lers believed, would not make it
possible for the champion to red
uce as scientifically as had been
planned, so il was decided to elm
mate the MONDAY meal.

cupies a room at the central tele=
graph station. Before any cable
is sent to America or any other
country it must pass his inspec-
tion.
Assurance was given the Amer
ican press recently that this CEN
sorship, insofar as it concerns dis
patches to recognized newspapers
and news agencies, is only perfume
tory.
when the Ministry of the In
terior's representative sees the ad-
dress of recognized newspaper OF
news agency at the top of a dis
patch he passes it for transmission
without reading line" the Amer
ican correspondent was told. "If
he is out at lunch or absent from
his office messages to American
newspaper go through automatic
ally without delay"
Inasmuch as a cablegram for
America, filed at the telegraph
station at the Bourse, passes
through at least ten hands before
it reaches its destination, it is diff
ficult to check the statement that
any resulting delay is not the fault
Of the censor.
In addition to this, the French
Foreign Office exercises a kind of
retroactive Censorship. Copies
of dispatches sent to American
newspapers are laid before the
press section of the Foreign Of
flee. The Foreign office explains
that this is done merely that it
may be informed at all times of
the nature of message sent by
American newspaper representa-
tives in Paris without waiting FOR
their dispatches to be recalled
from the United States.

Oil ellis
Farmer Thinks Signs
On Farm Point To
Presence Of Oil In
Locality

La Grande, June 8.--Charles
Loyelace, Mt. eileen farmer, has
reported that he had discovered
oil on his farm. Whether or not
this will transform the beautiful
Mt. eileen farming section into an
oil metropolis with every available
foot of space used in boring holes
into the fertile soil Of the Grande
Ronde valley in search of the valu-
able fluid, remains to be seen.
However, Lovelace has announ-
eed that he now feels certain that
what he has long ago suspected of
being real oil-the kind that is
piling up scads of wealth for John
ID. Rockefeller-is to be found on
his place.
The history Of his discovery
dates back to four years ago. At
that time Lovelace, who claims to
be somewhat of a prospector, as
we'll as farmer, thought he found
signs of oil.
Until three weeks ago little at
tention was paid to his find. Since
then he has decided that the oil
on his farm is the real thing. Sew
eral Of his neighbors also report
that their farms have symptoms
similar to those encountered on
the Lovelace place.

ONION IN DEMAND AND WITH

Of liquor, Americans are developing
q craze for the most kicky of vege-

Peowaty, the onion king. who is in
Chicago for the annual convention Of
the fruit and Vegetable Shippers AS
ISOLATION.
Since prohibition became effective
the demand for onions has almost
doubled. Last year Mr.. Peowaty
handled more than $4,000 carloads of
onions, and he expects his 1921 bust
ness to be greater.
Onions have food value which is
rot generally appreciated. said Mr..
Peowaty. Onions contain more Gallo
ries than some meats and make an in
vigoratng soup for, convalescents.
They wlll some day be one OF the
staple foods Of the country.
