FELT FOR BOX-TOED SHOES
AND HEEL PADS RESTRICTED
B. M. Baruch, chairman of the War
Industries Board .authorizes the fol
lowing. Box toes in shoes, felt heel pads,
and felt inner soles are doomed unless
the felt manufacturers have on hand
necessary raw materials to supply
the felt for these purposes, the War
Ilndustnes Board has ruled.
Based on the decision of the boot
and shoe section that felt for box toes
in shoes is essential and for heel pads
section of the War Industries Board
will grant permits to the felt manu
facturers to produce felts for these
purpose for the time being.
Such permits will be issued based
on these contingencies:
1. That the felt manufacturers have
on hand the raw materials necessary
for the manufacture of felts for such
purposes, as the Government has no
raw materials available which could
be allotted to the felt mills for this
purpose, and
2. That the manufacturer of such
felts will not cause he felt mills to
defer or delay in any way fulfillment
of any Government orders, direct or in
direct, which they have on hand at
the present time, or any which may be
placed with them at some future time
which would require priority of manu
facture.
SUGAR EXPORTS SMALL
TO NEUTRAL NATIONS
Only 797 tons of refined sugar were
shipped from America to neutral na
tions during the first five months of
this year. This amounted to only 3.2
per cent of the total exports to all
countries. Mexico received more than
half the amount we exported to neu
trals. SAVE SUGAR.

HOUSEWIVES OF AMERICA
HAVE HELPED GREATLY
IN FEEDING OUR ALLIES
This statement in regard to the
Food Administration was made recent
ly by Representative Henry D. Flood
of Virginia:
The w ar w ould have been lost if the
Allies had not been fed; and it was
through the efforts of the United
States Food Administration that they
were sustained during the trying
days when our nation was preparing
itself to put an immense army in the
field with them m the fight for de
mocracy. I am not exaggerating
when I say that no agency of the gov
ernment has done more to assure vic
tory for our cause than the Food Ad
ministration. One of the most wonderful things
ever acomplished in this country was
the campaign of universal voluntary
food saving conducted by the whole
American people at the instance of
Herbert Hoover. As a result of it
vast quantities of meat, grain and
sugar have been sent overseas .while
we at home have hot suffered any
leal depiivation. By it the idea of
individual self-sacrifice to help win the
war has been carried into every, nook
and corner of the nation. The Ameri
can housewife, whose savings in the
home seemed insignificant when view
ed alone, has come to realize what a
a mighty force the combined efforts
of 22,000 housewives developed into
after the food message had been
brought home to them.
When the pinch of hunger was ac
ute in Europe last winter, England at
the time only had three weeks' supply
of food on hand. Submarinesweremak
ing havoc among the food ships and
rail congestion in this country had
halted supplies for the Allies that
could nt be carried to tidewater. The
Allies needed 75,000,000 bushels more
of wheat to carry them over. Am
erica's exportable surplus, 20,000,000
bushels ,already had been sent. The
Allies were desperate; they believed
their cause to be lost.
Then the Food Administration issu
ed its calico save wheat; hundreds of
thousands of families went on a wheat
less basis altogether; housewives used
substitutes cheerfully and faithfully.
As a result our total wheat exports
to Europe were 141,000,000 bushels.
We sent it because we saved it.
Knowing how well it has served
them in the past ,the people of the
nation are confident that the Food Ad
ministration will continue so to man
age the country's food resources that
the millions of fighting men we are
sending to Europe will be fed and
the Allies will be sustained until the
final victory ,that will crown our
combined efforts.
EACH OF 22 ALLIED
NATIONSTO BE REMEMBERED
A feature of the Fourth Liberty
Loan campaign, which will be general
ly observed throughout the country, is
the dedication of one of each of the
twenty-two days of the campaign to
one of the twenty-two nations alliea
against Germany. It is planned to
have displayed as far as available, the
flags of the various nations on the
specified dates and to have the Four
Minute Speakers include a resume of
that Nation's war efforts each day.
The scehdule has been arranged al
phabetically with one slight change
necessary to bring Italian Day on
October 12 Columbus Day.
The schedule arranged is as follows:
Belgium, Sept. 28; Brazil, (Sunday)
Sept. 29; British Empire, Sept 30;
China, Oct. l;Cuba, Oct. 2; Czecho

CONCRETE BARGE
BUILT WITH AID
OF CEMENT GUNS
In building a reinforced-concrete
barge, the Los Angeles Harbor Com
mission has made use of air guns,
spraying the cement against the walls
formed of reinforcing rods and wire,
says the October Popular Mechanics
Magazine in an illustrated article.
The plan is one that is commonly
used for other kinds of work, but its
application to barge and boat building
except perhaps for applying finishing
touches, is not general. During con
struction the barge was blocked on its
ways so that when completed a heavy
truck could bo run on rails beneath it.
Upon being lowered to the latter, it
was moved into the water and allowed
to float free.
Let's remember in this sugar fight
that the motto of Foch is "Attack,"
and the method of our boys, "Fight
as long as the fighting is good and
then some more." So "Up and at
'em."
YANKHES O'
THE MARNE
According to T. Atkins
By EMERSON HOUGH
of The Vigilantes
Oh, the English and the Irish, and the
'owliri Scotties, too.
The Canucks and Austryleyuns, and
the 'airy French pollu
The only thing that bothered us a
year before we knew, '
Was W in 'ell the Yanks 'ud look,
an' wot in 'ell they'd do.
They 'adn't 'ad no trynein', they didn't
know the gyme,
They 'adn't never marched it much
their shootin' was the syme;
An' the only thing that bothered us
that day in' lawst July
Was 'ow in 'ell the line 'd 'old if they
should run aw'y.
Them leggy, nosey new 'uns, just come
across the sea .
We couldn't 'elp but wonder 'ow in
'ell their guts 'ud be.
An' the only thing that bothered us in
oil our staggerin' ranks
Was wot in 'ell 'ud 'appen w'en the
'Uns 'ad 'it the Yanks.
My word! it 'appened sudden w'en
the drive 'ad first begun;
We seed the Yanks a-runnin' Gaw
blymy' ow they run!
But MP on' v v 'r.t loihered us
that seed the chase begin
Was 'ow in 'ell to stop 'em 'fore they
got into Berlin!
They didn't 'ave no tatics .but the
bloody manuel,
They 'adn't learned no borders but
"Oooray!" an' "Give 'om 'ell!"
But the only thing that bothered us
about them leggy lads
Was 'ow in 'ell to get ihe chow to
feed their "Kamerads!"
So we're standin' all together in a
stiffish firin' line,
If anyone should awsk you, you can
say we're doin' fine.
But the only thing that bothers us
an' that don't bother much
Is 'ow in 'ell to get the dirt to bury
all the Dutch.
Gaw's trewth; it's rotten fightin' that
all our troops 'as seen,
The 'Un'si a dirty pl'yer, becos 'e's al-
wus been;
But the only thing that bothers us in
'anding 'im our thanks
Is 'ow in 'ell we'd done it if it weren't
fer the Yanks.
Oh, the English and the Irish, an' the
'owlin' Scotties, too,
The Canucks and Austryleyuns, an'
the 'airy French pollu,
The only thing that bothered us don't
bother us no more
It's why in 'ell we didn't know the
Yankee boys before!

Turkey is starving, Germany pinch
ed and Austria rioting for food. The
Allies are well fed and full of fight,
thanks to Uncle Sam who invited them
to sit down to his table a year ago
he has been passing around the victu
als ever since.
An entirely automatic dishwashing
and drying machine is shown in the
October; Popular Mechanics Magazine.
It is quite unusual in that it per
forms its complete operation without
requiring any supervision. Inside of
a cylindrical tank racks are provided
which enable dishes to be stacked
radially from the center. After this
is done a gas burner beneath the ma
chine is ignited, and the top of the
tank closed. Hot water is then forc
ed under preasure through a whirling
head and sprayed on the dishes. At
the expiration of a definite interval,
the water is automatically shut off
and a blower started. Air, heated by
the gas flame is forced over the dishes
quickly drying them. Simultaneous
ly a drain in the bottom of the tank
is opened and the used water dis
charged. Thus, after the dishes have
once been stacked in the machine and
the gas lighted, the housewife's at
tention is not required until it is time
to remove the cleaned and dried
dishes and put them away.
ARMY DEATH RATE FOR
DISEASE ONLY 2.18
PER 1,000 ANNUALLY
The War Department authorizes the
following statement from the office of
the Surgeon General:
American troops both here and over
seas continue to establish good health
records. For the two months' period
ending August 31 the combined re-1
ports of the American Expeditionary
Forces andj all troops stationed in the
United States show an annual death
rate for disease of 2.18 per 1,000 a,
fraction more than 2 men per 1,000 1
per year. ihe annual death rate fori
disease of men of military age in civil
life is 6.77 per 1,000. '
The combined reports show that gen
erally the health of the soldiers over
seas is better than that shown by the
men in the training camps in this
country. This is largely due to the J
fact that only men in the best physical i
condition are being sent to France,
with the result that the reports of the
