were disclosed as a result of a cur
rent investigation being conducted
vigorously throughout the State.
The State OPA, has announced
that under existing regulations, ho-
tells, restaurants and lunchrooms may
not transfer sugar or sugar ration
evidence to industrial users to make
products to be used in the hotel, res
taurant or lunchroom. 1t has been dis
covered that some hotels, restaurants
and lunchrooms are transferring to
established manufacturers sugar and
sugar evidence to have this sugar
processed into fountain syrups and
concentrates which are transferred
back to them by the manufacturer
for use in fountains. This procedure
is in violation of rationing regula-
tlons and must be discontinued al
once, OPA officials stated.
A hotel, restaurant or lunchroom
who received sugar allotments must
use that sugar for the purpose for
which it was granted.

DISTRICT FORESTER ISSUES
WARNING

With the approach of the fall dry
weather, debris burners are again
warned by District Forester, A. R
Bond, Bel Air, to comply with the
four O'Clock brush burning regula-
tion which is again effective Sept. /
Briefly the law is stated below:
The following regulations shall ap-
ply to the burning of debris within
200 feet of woodland or inflammable
material that may carry fire to wood
land outside the limits of incorporat-
ed towns.
During the months of March, April
and May, September, October, No
vember and December, debris burn
ers are obligated to take the follow
ing specific protective measures:
1. Burn after 400 p. m. (EST)
when the wind dies down and the air
moisture increases.
e If there is not a natural fire
break, such as pasture, roads,
streams, cultivated fields, etc., of at
least 10 feet in width around the
area to be bunred, a fire break of at
least 10 feet wide must be construct
ed to prevent the escape of the fire.
3. Have sufficient help with tools
to keep the fire under control.
4. Have at least one watchman
on the scene until the last spark is
out.
The above precautions are consid-
cred "commin sense" measures for
the safe burning of debris in the
open.

SUGAR STAMP EXTENDED

Since some confusion resulted
from the first announcement of vail
dation of spare stamp 81 in family
ration books, OPA confirmed the fact
that it will be made good September
l, 1916, for five pounds of sugar, for
regular consumer use, and will be
valid through December 81, 1916.
At the same time OPA announced
that spare stamp 49 will continue to
be good for five pounds of sugar
through September 80, 1916.
By extending for 80 days, from
August 81 through September 80,
1946, the period for which the cur
rent spare stamp for sugar is valid,
OPA will make it possible for house.
wives in certain local shortage areas
to cash in their stamps. Maldistribu-
tion, largely caused by the difficulty
of getting boxcars to ship sugar from
producing areas to deficit consuming
areas, has had the effect of making
it impossible for housewives in GER
tain sections of the country to cash
their stamps for sugar.
OPA pointed out that present civil
ian sugar ALLEGATIONS do not permit
an increase in consumer rations in
excess of five pounds of sugar for
each four months for this year. These
ALLEGATIONS generally are limited be-
cause of uncertainty as to supplies
available from Cuba and Puerto Rico
and because of continuing require
ments for shipment to famine strick-
en- countries.

ment Attorney, Hugo A. Riccuiti, an

Quoted by OPA Hearing Commission
er Clifford R. Snider, on August 29th
and 30th.
Mr.. Riccuiti said that the Enforce
ment Division would continue it's
drive to stamp out the black market
in sugar, and prosecute vigorously
any violators of the Ration Order.

PRIZE TO ENCOURAGE BREAD
CONSERVATION

To further encourage wheat con-
servation in the present world emer-
gency by urging people to toast dry
bread and make mse of the end slices,
Russell w. Camfield, of Grand Haven
Michigan, is offering an automatic
electric toaster as first prize for the
best loaf of bread exhibited at the
Maryland State Fair whic ophens at
Timonium, Sept. 2.
The announcement of this special
award was made by Matt. L. Dagger,
President, who stated that the bread
to be exhibited must be received by
Sept. /.
Miss Katharine E. Braithwaite an
nOunces that the All Club girls and
members of the Home Makers Clubs
will sponsor bread saving demonstra-
tions during the Fair, using Camfield
recipes and a Camfield toaster.
Camfield, who manufactures elec-
trio toasters, became interested in
wheat conservation when he learned
| through series of public surveys
that more than 100000 bushels OF
wheat are wasted annually in the
| United States because one out of four
families throws away the end slices
or heels, and five per cent of all
homes feeds these slices to the
| birds"
In the interest of wheat saving, he
recently sponsored series of bread
conservation demonstrations before
emergency relief committees, the
Red Cross, and school authorities in
the Central West in order to show
how dried-out bread which often is
thrown away can be made to tempt
the taste if toasted or put to good use
in many recipes.

DON'T BUY OR BUILD DWELLING
NOW, HOUSING AUTHORITY
WARNS
WARNS

Because we are in the midst of as
serious a real estate imitation as this
country has ever seen, it is folly to
buy or build home in the present
market, according to Miles Colean,
former Assistant Federal Housing
Administrator.
Don't build. Don't buy" Colean
declares in an article in the August
issue of House Beautiful magazine,
publication which ordinarily en-
courages the construction of new
| homes.
Recognized as Americas leading
| housing economist, Colean h t S
straight from the shoulder in his ad-
| vice to prospective home builders or
buyers when he states in the article
''It's strange for home magazine
to recommend this. But If it's the
truth, we should not be afraid to say
so. No other advice makes any sense
now. Except under the direst, neces-
sity, stay out of the housing market.
You can't win except on the shortest
of deals and you are almost certain
to lose in the long run"
Colean points out that any builder
or buyer in the present market only
adds to the pressure on prices and
that not only will they lose but they
will be forcing others to lose.
eff you buy or build now, you face
the grim outlook of losing dollar val
ue and quantity value" he declares
''Not only will you yourself lose, but
you will be helping others to lose
too, for every buyer added to today s
prices adds to the pressure on prices
Hole in where you are, if you possibly
can, till the storm sweeps by.
This is hard advice to take after
four or five years of waiting and
planning. 1t is particularly hard ad-
vice after the fair prospects we could
glimpse a year and even less than a
year ago. But the discouraging fact
is now plain: we are in the midst of
as serious a real estate imitation as
the country has seen.
i dangerous imitation
is here now. Watch, look and stop
There is an old saying, TO the star
wing man all bread is good Today
building bread is bad. Be sure that
you are starving before you take it. -
