Following the famous Caporetto retreat Sergeant Cic- chiello was surrounded by the enemy with his platoon and madep risoner. While a war prisoner he was in Ger many, Austria and Hungary, suffer ing all sorts of privations.
 Sergeant Cicchiello's reelection is a great moral victory, in that he is rewarded for bringing the member ship of the Caiatina Connazionali almost equal to al lof the local rival lodges put together and financial standing far in excess. The Gaia tina ConnazionaH has over 5000 in its treasury.
 Numerous congratulations from prominent citizens are being received by Sergeant Cicchiello and the women's auxiliary have announced plans for a testimonial banquet for him.

 Letter of Appeal
 Rev. Eugene P. Cryne, director of the Diocesan Bureau of Social Ser vice, has made the following ap- peal for funds to enable the Bureau to carry out its Christmas program for the families and children under its care.
 To Our Friends
 We are on the threshold of an- other Christmas which brings along the added responsibility of seeing to 1t that the families of the poor, especially the children of the poor, are made to realize that the Christ Child comes to them also, as well as to those in homes filled with comfort and sometimes even with luxury.
 This added responsibility means added expense but thanks be to God and to you, for the past IS years the Diocesan Bureau has been able to meet the situation with satisfaction. The generosity of those who have responded each year to our Christmas letter has made this possible.
 We are presuming to appeal again feeling that you are with us in this undertaking and that you approve of our efforts to pro- mote organized Catholic charity.
 No contribution will be too small-every little bit helps. Re- member, Our Lord Himself said that not even a cup of cold wa- ter given in His name shall go unrewarded. Amen. I say to you, as long as you did 1t to one of these my least brethren you did 1t to Me"
 Wishing you and yours every

NAZ|S OPEN DRIVE
ON MEAT DEALERS
Dozen Butchers Jailed for
+ Selling Above Proclaimed
= Price Levels.
Hy the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, October 17.-Sharp warn
angs against profiteering in food were
issued by the ministry Of justice to-
day after five slaughter houses in the
Ruhr district closed on police orders.
A dozen butchers went to Jail for
selling meat at higher than proclaimed
prices.
Through nationwide propaganda
campaign, the public was told to curb
its appetite. Farmers and food deal
ers-who have been arrested and
fined-were given notice distribution
methods would be disciplined strictly.
Appeals to citizens to discipline their
eating habits stressed the kind of food
rather than the amount.
"With our own production We can
take care of 100 per cent of our bread
and flour needs" asserted Minister
of Agriculture Walther Dare, land
also 100 per cent of our potato, sugar
and milk demand.
"Of vegetables and meat, however,
we produce only 90 to "a per cent, of
eggs and dairy products 80 to 85 per
cent and of fats only SO to SIS per
cent"
Profteering dealers were sharply
reminded of the rights of the state.
"These conscienceless individuals
will be roughly handled by the state
in the future" Darre declared.
Police recently began a vigorous
campaign, arresting dealers who
boosted prices, butchers who "boot-
legged" meats and sausages and farm
ers who fed milk to pigs instead Of
sending it to dairy markets.
Additional emphasis was provided
by the arrest OF some farmers who
complied with the compulsory milk
delivery regulations, but complained
loudly and criticized the arrangement
later.
Similar discipline was promised for
consumers who complained too loudly
against the necessity of revising their
eating habits"
