Conservation in America i Vastly Increased Supplies for Forces Abroad ' By the United Press WitftlilfiRtnn, July 18. When America t'ghtencd up her belt June 1, 1917, she made it possible for the United States to ship to the Allien 844,600,000 more pounds of meats and ,fats and 80,900,000 more bushel of cereals during tJie ensuing twelve months thnn was possible the year previous. In a letter to Presld'ent Wilson, out lining this nntlon's grocery deliveries to ner associates In arms, Food Adminis trator Hooer said that "all the millions of our people who have contributed to these results should feel a very definite satisfaction that. In a year of universal food shortages In the northern hemls phexo, all of those p-ople Joined together against dermany have come through Into sight of the coming harvest, not cnly with health and strength fully maintained, hut with only temporary periods of hnrdsh'ps." Food Worth (11,400,000,000 All food shipments to t'.ic Allies, the Belgian relief and the Hed Cross totaled $1,400,000,000 during the fiscal year, represented In 3,011,100,000 pounds of meat and fats (Including meat and dairy products, vegetabla oils, etc.) and 340.800,000 bushels of cereals. (In ad dition, some 10,000,000 bushels of grain hac been shipped to neutrals). ,Thls has heen possible, Hoover shows, despite the fact that slaughterable ani mals were not nppieciably larger than the year before and, particularly In hogs, they were probably let.s. Also, the urgent request of Allied food controllers early In the year for a further shipment of 75,000,000 bushels from tho 1917 wheat crop found our surplus "already more than exhausted." PrnlneH Farmers iHoover pays a high tribute to the effort and loyalty of the f aimers and, to those "whose sacrifice has been ac complished voluntarily and Individually." Without trying to distinguish where the greatest credit belongs, Hoocr says, "Io cue will deny the dominant part of the American women." ' 'if Tit V22aLJ " - ' ' PLAN LAUNCHING!

Dans for the celebra tion In all the shipyards of the country are assuming such proportions that the ;nlnety-four ships launched July 4 will be a small numocr in comparison with the totals that arc to glide from the ways on September 2. The movement was begun by Pacific coast shipbuilders and to start the ball rolling, the California district, which Shipworkers Team Is Out for Top Honors in National League The Merchants shipyard soccer team Is out with a strong bid for top honors this season. Through the efforts of W. T. Wilson, soccer promoter, the team hail been tnken Into the National Soc- , cer League. This means the dropping of either the Jersey A. C, the New York ' A. C. or the Dlsstcm A. A. from the cir cuit. William Head, of the M. S. depart ment, was elected vice president of the National Soccer League.

The finding of the commission will be announced later. launched July 4, has promised tvventy- fonr vessels, or nine more than were launched that day. Inspiring Origin The origin of the Idea has about It a certain Inspiring quality. On July 4 Charles K.Tlez, vice president for con struction of the Emergency Fleet Cor poration, attended the triplo launch ing nt the Los Angeles Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. Ho complimented the manrger of the yard on the won derful showing of that concern In turn ing out three large vessels In a single flay. "Very much obliged!" was the spirit of the manager's acceptance of Mr. Plez's appreciation, "But these three ships arc nothing to what the boys are planning for Labor Day. On that date, Mr. 1'iez, we're going to slip over Just six ships on the Kaiser." When Mr. Plez arrived at San Fran cisco on his way north to Portland he told Joseph J. Tynan, general manager of the Union Iron Works, which raised a world's record of single-day launch ing on the Fourth of July, of the words and the fighting spirit of the Los Angeles men. "Why, this la a wonderful oppor tunity" exclaimed Mr. TyWn at once. He called together the lnbor leaders of the San Fr.inclco section, who jumped nt the Idea, and then went Into the ship yards to talk It over, with the men, who jumped even quicker. Twenty-four Pledged Twenty-four ships pledged already and forty-four days to go. Shipyards all over the country who could not get In their lick at the Prussian on July 4 arc thirsting for Just another chance. Shipyards, like Hog Island and the Mer chant Shipbuilding Corporation at Har rlman. Pa., that were not far enough ad vanced to launch a ship two weeks ago will be In full swing In another two weeks, to swell Philadelphia and the Delaware's contribution to the punch that America will deliver on Labor Day to scatter whatever breath may be left In the Pan-Gcrmanlc lungs."

STRICT; COAL RULES ATWILKES-BARRE Rigorous Conservation Regula tions for Elevators, Street Cars and Lighting N Bu a Staff Correspondent Wllkes-llarrr, July 18. Wllkes-Barrc, the hefrt of the an thracite region, Jias started in for coal conservation until "it hurts. .In a cltv where one might think a family In need of coal could Just step right out and dig a couple of bkuttle fuls, there the most rigorous conserva tion rules In the country have been laid down and are being conscientiously and patriotically observed. The skip-stop has been put in effect on' all Wllkes-Barre trolley lines and the use of artificial light has been gen erally reduced, but the most severe con. aarvatlon measures have been taken In tb matter of elevator service. ' You can't ride In an elevator at all unless you are going to the third fiooi or above It. Persons on second floors bn to walk both ways and no person must ever take an e'evator to B ,rom ope floor to me ne " "" ,'Th4re are only a few exceptions to the rule, against stopping at the second floor. Schools, business colleges and other large buildings In which large numbers of per sons must be carried quickly to the sec ond floor may have second-floor service. The rule, howeer, affects more than 95 per. cent of buildings with elevators in Wllkes-Barre. Elevators are also required to make no trips until loaded to 50 per cent of ca pacity. This does away with much of the fuel consumption, otihh ciciui have gone two hours without a trip under this rule and there has been much fuel saving. N FOUR HELD FOR ROBBERY , i - .

TO FIGHT RECEIVERSHIP President Protests Minority Bondholders Gave No No. tice of Action Atlantic City, July 18. Clarence M.

The gas company's defensive action Is In charge of John A, Slattery, of Philadelphia, who had charge of the consolidation cf two rate-wrecked shore gas companies several years ago for the Gelst Interests. President deist complained vigorously that no notice was given of the plana of the minority bondholders, represented by Mr. Godfrey, a former president of the New Jersey Assembly, The latter profess to fear that Philadelphia bond' holders, who have organized a commit tee, intend to proceed with the fore closure of a mortgage for $3,00.0,000 upon the company's plant. Mr. Gelst asserted today that the company officials knew nothing of the Intended action cf tho small bondholders until he was Informed while engaged In a game of golf that Judge Warren Dals. of the United States Court, had appointed Harvey Carr, a Camden law yer, as receiver. President Gelst declared himself con fident the company will be able to raise and pay Interest to the amount of $84, 000, upon which It defaulted on July 1, within the three months allowed by law. He claimed war prices for raw materials have Jumped the cost cf producing gas to ninety-one cents per thousand feet. The company's net rate Is ninety cents.
