16 FUEL SHORTAGE I ON WEST SHORE Administrator Robert L.Myers Says Present Conditions May Continue "Federal Fuel Administrator Gar field's drastic war measures have as yet failed to relieve the serious scarcity of coal in Cumberland coun ty. The fuel is short, and there is no relief in sight. Present conditions may continue until warm weather is liere to stay," declared Robert L Myers. West Shore coal adminis trator, in a statement this morning. Mr. Myers lauds the dealers for their splendid work so far and says that they are doing- their best to meet the needs of the people. He states that the schools will remain closed until all homes are supplied. The statement follows: "The fuel administrator for Cum berland county is A. F. Bedford. Car lisle, Pa. He is a man of wide and successful experience. His activity ir. behalf of the several communities of Cumberland county, including the West Shore towns, has taken him to Philadelphia, to Washington, and through the coal regions. Anyone may communicate with Mr. Bedford by either telephone. "The members of the Cumberland county committee on fuel administra tion. of which Mr. Bedford is the chairman. are James D. Robinson, of fchlppensburg; Edwin R. Hayes, oL Newville; Samuel F. Hauck, of Me-" I i hanicsburg. and Robert L Myers, of Camp Hill. The members of the com mittee arc expected to keep the county administrator informed on the, fuel supply in their respective dis tricts, to receive complaints of price boosting and to assist in minimizing the dangers attending a serious fuel shortage. Some of them also support the dealers in their appeals to the large coal companies, who are too ready to disregard our smaller scat tered communities and to ignore the •wishes of their former highly-prized patrons. "Every coal dealer on the West Shore is doing his best to meet the needs not only of his patrons but also of his competitors. He realizes that this is not the time to be influ enced in the slightest degree by com petition and favoritism. When one dealer is out of coal he borrows from another dealer to supply the needs of his patrons. "The consumer must depend upon his dealer. New citizens who have not yet established business connec tions on the West Shore and who have failed in their efforts to do so may appeal to the county fuel ad ministrator or to the local member of the committee. If there aro no local organizations to take care of the cases in which poverty is a con sideration, the cases should be re ported to the nearest Red Cross or Emergency Aid organization. "Every resident should measure up to the new obligations imposed by our country's participation in the war. One of these duties Is to share our coal with our neighbor if he is out. "Every possible effort is being made to keep our public schools open but it is only right that they should close until the homes are all warm. Great credit is due our religious or ganizations for the plans they are making to save coal." BED CROSS TO MEET Revision of the bylaws of the or ganization will be discussed at a meeting of the board of directors of the Red Cross to be held at the pub lic library at. 8 o'clock to-morrow evening, when a report of the com mlttee in charge, will be read. fg®a'a®a/sia®siaraoc!fEjsj3Ma®aa3a/a I>r.

This result was! announced at a meeting of the execu-| I tivc committee-yesterday. It does not represent the linal total, because j many of the pledges have not yet been collected. The aim of the Harrisburg district was $26,000. Of the amount raised, the city con tributed $21,000.

Importation of Labor Opposed by Pacific Coast San Francisco, Cal.—ln view of the shortage of farm labor in Cali fornia, the agitation in favor of bringing in large numbers of Ori entals, Chinese or Filipinos for farm work is renewed vigorously from time to time and frequently by lead ing organizations or individuals. In quiry among those well informed on the general situation throughout the state, however, shows it to be their opinion that there is no probability and scarcely any possibility that this will be done. The importation of Chinese, even for restricted agricul tural work, Is said to be looked upon with great disfavor, not only by what are called the labor interests, but by the great mass of people gener ally. The State Council of Defense, for example, strongly opposes such importation of laborers. The real remedy for the labor shortage, It is pointed out by these observers, will be found in a com prehensive and detailed system of mobilization and transportation of laborers, it being said in this con nection that the farm labor short age, taking the state as a whole, is not so great as has generally been supposed. The fact that men are idle in one section is cited to show that the problem is essentially one that calls for a higher form of or ganization of the equipment and means at hand, rather than the ad dition of new factors to the prob lem. Lack of shipping facilities and the possibility of international com plications are mentioned as factors militating against the proposal to Import laborers. To admit these la borers would. In the opinion of some, relieve Japan from her so called gentlemen's agreement not to send her laborers here.

"In some places local banks are reluctant to undertake the de tailed work in connection with small savings and the Board will encour age teachers and pupils to familiar ize themselves with the advantages of the Government's Thrift Stamp plan. This will relieve teachers of much of the burden under some systems which have been employed. In a number of places the boards are issuing special penny stamps, each pupil being given a folder card with places for twenty-five stamps. When filled with these penny stamps the pupil gets a twenty-live cents United States Thrift Stamp. Teach ing the children the elements of thrift in a systematic and practical way may be counted as one of the moral equivalents of war. There is great need to stimulate the habit of saving and help children realize the value of small sums." BENEFIT CONCERT The Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C.

BOYS WILL JUDGE CORN EXHIBITS One Hundred Will Be Brought Here to Look After Awards For State Exhibits One hundred boys from the rural vocational agricultural schools of the state will attend the Pennsyl vania State Farm Products Show, to be held at Harrisburg next week, and will participate in a corn judg ing contest to establish state cham pionship school and individual hon ors. In addition to the big corn judg ing contest, which will be a feature of the big farm products show on Wednesday morning, the rural com munity vocational schools will have an interesting exhibit that will show the work done in the schools. This display is being arranged by the agricultural division of the Bureau of Vocational Education of the State Department of Public Instruc tion. The trip of the boys .from the rural sections lias been made pos sible through the efforts of Secre tary of Agriculture Charles E. Pat ton and L. H. Dennis, director of agricultural extension, and the clti- | zens from the districts of the rural [ community schools. The trip to Harrisburg for the state show has | been the incentive for the boys to work for high honors as judges of corn and the honor students are provided with funds to make the trip through the interest aroused In their home community. Every effort is being made to in terest the boys in agriculture with the hope that they will, through the education afforded by the Pennsyl vania school system, become pro gressive farmers and help break | production figures on the farms of I the state. For the corn judging I contest, team and individual prizes I will be given. The team winning the contest will take, the state cham pionship banner, which is contested for each year. For the individual prizes three pure bred Shropshire ewe sheep have been donated by Charles S. Calwell, president of the •Corn Exchange National Bank, of Philadelphia. During the two-day stay In Har risburg the boys will be entertained at the Y. M. C. A. and they will attend several of the meetings which have been arranged by the agricul tural associations. CO 1..

To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply It at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub It In gently with the finger tips. By morning, most If not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will com pletely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will ba fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is Inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This Bim- , ' pie remedy '.has never been known to fail.—Adv.
