MINISTER EXPLAINS i
HIS GLOOMY ADDRESS1
The JRcv. E. J. Humeston Says'
Inferences Drawn From
War Talk Unwarranted
The Rev n J Humeston. pastor ot ,
the Oak Lan& Presbyterian Church, '
olced rather pessimistic thoughts at
the Fourth of July exercises at the 1:1- ,

The minister recently returned from

and that ten ears might pass befoie

In explanation of his .iddiess, Mr
Humeston said some of the Inferences
drawn were unwarranted. i
"I am borry my words created an lm-1
pression of gloom," he said. "I am afraid I
l ilid not sutiiciently consider the fact
that my recent stay In an army camp
might give the semblance of official in
formation to what 1 had to say.

SoiiallsW Keject Budget
Friedrich von Payer, the Imperial Vice
Chancellor, replied to Herr Schelde
mann: "It Is well," he said, "that the So
cialists' rejection of the budget Is merely
a demonstration, for If the other parties
acted likewise the cause of the Father
land and freedom would not be served."
Herr Pclieidemann's reference to peace,
he added, did not call for a fresh gov
ernmental declaration.
"What would result after our previous
experiences" he asked. "The usual re
sult Is to excite the people and cause a
conflict of view in this country and
abroad. One sees. Indeed, something
that looks like a tiny spark and that
evokes hope of better insigh' on i'ic pait
of our enemies, but it is In general so
weak that the disadvantages abroad
arising from such declarations cannot
be outweighed by It
"These, disadvantages are that the
enemy governments, ln order to main
tain cohesion and incite their peoples,
give a false meaning to our sincerely
meant words, suggesting that they mean
we are unable to bring tho war to a vic
torious end "

ing to find themselves unable to fill
prescriptions If they don't hasten their
reports to the sugar headquarters, 38
South Fifteenth street
"Druggists have been particularly
slow- in making their reports," declared
J K. Bacon, head of the sugar head
quaitera today. "It is probably due to
a misunderstanding Because their
sugar supply has not been lessened by
the Government, some of them may think
that that lets them out of making a re
port, but It doesn't.
"lZvery druggist is required to give us
an exact statement of the amount or
sugar he has used In tho last year and
ln the last few months, as well us his
supply on hand. He will still be allowed
his normal amount, but any excess on
hand above 30 per cent Is liable to
seliuro by the food administration. Any
druggist failing to turn In his report by
July IB probably will not he allowed to
fill prescriptions after that time"
At noon today 15,000 reports had been
received at the sugar headquarters slnco
Monday morning.
