= Z tracks our front-line troops
are using in their victory smash.
Called clubmobile, it also uses a
new kind of ammunition: coffee
and doughnuts. Manned by pretty
girls in Red Cross uniforms, club
mobiles are rolling around to G.I.'s
in North Africa, Australia, England
and are ready to 60 to any new
major front.
In Africa, 10 clubmobile girls -
two to a truck - meet troop trains
en- route to the front, flyers back
from combat missions, isolated gun
crews. Typical comment of Yanks
who haven't seen American girls in
months: "Am l slap-happy - or
do you see what l seer?

IHE girls day stretches from

thermos jugs and fresh doughnuts.

troduced in England. The first
one was a converted English bus.
The British models carry their own
doughnut-making machines-and
a phonograph to give soldiers
music with their meals.

dustry was confronted with q IL
per cent rise in consumer de-
mand in 1912 over the previous
year. 1t is hoped composition
caps will solve the problem Of
closure shortage, and to over
come delivery difficulties, a
growing number Of breweries
have busted off the old brewery
wagons, and are buying the once
familiar Percherons and Clydes-
dales to share the delivery load
with the fewer available trucks.
Millions of men, earning bet
ter than average wages, have q
restricted choice of things to
buy, so it is natural that some
of the increased spending power
will be accounted for by alco-
holic beverages. Wartime condi-
tions affecting supplies and dis
tribution, however, will contin-
ue to limit liquor consumption.

Two 5ergeants
Go 10 Prison
Courts Mortiol
Order Revealed

FORT CUSTER, Mich, Jan.
% - (P) - Prison sentences
and dishonorable discharges
were ordered for two Army SER
geants yesterday for defrauding
the Post movie theater of admis-
sion fees from soldier patrons.
A general court martial or
dered a five. year prison term
for Sergt. Edward M. DeGutes,
81, of Battle Creek, and q three
year term for Staff Sergt. Rich
ard U. Schumacher, %, also of
Battle Creek.
Under the orders. which are
subject to review by the COM
handing general of the Sixth
Service Command, both men
face forfeiture of all pay and al
lowances in addition to the pris-
on terms and dishonorable dis
charge.
A third sergeant has been de-
tanned and probably will be
brought to trial, military offic-
ials said.
FATHER OF BOY
Sergeant DeGutes, married,
father of six .S-r-old boy, and
veteran of II years in the
Army, admitted taking about
$1,000 as my share" Asking
leniency on the basis of his
Army record, he offered to at
tempt to make restitution.
Sergeant Schumacher, who
pleaded guilty and testified as a
prosecution witness, said SOL
diers' admission tickets were
withheld from the ticket box
and later resold. He said the
practise was widely known and
that a take" averaging be-
tween $40 and S12 a night was
divided among soldiers.
Soldiers pay 20 cents admis-
sion to Post theaters, which are
operated by the U. S. Army mo-
ton picture service for the
showing of new moving pictures.
Part of each admission reverts to
soldier funds.
WEPT AT TRIAL
Sergeant DeGutes, who wept
at times during the court mar
tial, told Major George A. No.
yak, trial judge advocate, that
he felt he was being made to
take the rap for about 20 other
guys who were in on 1t and
knew all about it,"
The defendants special coun-
sci, Lieut.. Leo j. Crum of Kali
amazoo, presented letters of
commentator from former su-
perior officers in DeGutes' be-
half.
Sergeant Schumacher testified
that he had confessed his part in
the fraud to a priest and after
wards had informed Col. George
T. Shank, post commander, that
he would sell personal posses
sions to make restitution.
Privates Frank M. Rogerro
and John M Neal, theater en-
ployes, testified that they knew
of the thefts.

BY NEA Service
NEW YORK, Jan. % The al
coholic beverage situation can
be summed up best in famous
curtain line once uttered by
Miss Ethel Barrymore: That's all
there is, there isn't any more"
With the possible exception of
some illegal free-lancing in the
Ozarks or Appalachians, no
whiskey is oeing distilled in the
United States today. And while
there isn't noticeable scarcity
Of drinks as yet, the fact remains
that the dlstilling industry is
completely converted to the pro-
duction of alcohol for war uses.
And every drink or bottle that
passes across the counter means
that much less in a reserve stock
that isn't being replenished.
STATE RATIONING GROWS
Recognizing this unacceptable
reality, seven states already are
limiting bottle purchases, in ra-
tons ranging from one pint a
week to two quarts a day. They
are Idaho, Iowa, Ohio, North
Carolina, Utah, Wyoming and
Washington, all operating gov
eminent stores. Virginia has an
nounced that 1t will Join the
ranks on Feb. /. Many stores
and bars in other states are find
ing it necessary to put limit on
sales to each customer.
These sales are being made
against a national stock Of $685.
100000 gallons of whiskey. That
is a tremendous supply, but by
no means Observation-Disclosures
tally when you know that 100,-
600, 900 gallons OF that will new
er reach the consumer, but will
evaporate or soak into barrels
while In storage.
The distilled spirits industry
Is now the largest single source
of alcohol, turning out 240, 000,-
600 gallons of this vital chemical
q year for munitions, synthetic
rubber and other critical mater
ials. The Schenley Distillers
Corp, for instance. multiplied
its war alconol production ten
fold in 1912, and In now work =.
ing on a 24-hour day seven
days-a-week basis.
WINE BUSINESS BOOMS
Wine is the fastest growing
business in the alcoholic bever-
age field, but diversion of over
30 per cent of the wine grape
crop by the government for
making rsisins cuts deeply into
wine production. Shortages Of
wine tank cars and labor are
causing headaches among the
producers today. Yet the grow
ing superiority Of American
wines, decline Of foreign sup
plies, snd increasing consumer
popularity nave boosted Amer
can wine consumption about is
per cent every year since 1888.
Two developments which are
expected 10 improve the wine
situstioD are the gradual growth
of consumer preference for bet
ter wines, end the entry of
leading distillers into the wine
business, which makes sysils-
BILE their large scale distribution
facilities 10 bring good wine to
consumers more efficiently snd
more economically.
Beer production has not been
seriously affected by war, but
the shift from psckssiBg la cans
TO bottles hiss created . heavy
demsnd for bottle caps, which
are not too plentiful, end tire
and gas rsiioDiBs have created
acute distribution pr obIems
which tighten supplies 10 con.
