Show - i J - i S EDITORIALS (By C. D. McNeeley) ' WORLD-WID- E SUFFERING ON ACCOUNT OF THE WAR. All the world suffers from the war and will continue to suffer J more and more until some time after peace is declared. Those who have had no part in the war suffer almost a3 much as the nations engaged in it, except in the actual loss of life. Among those in great distress is. Switzerland. Consul Haskell at Geneva reports that there is a great shortage in coal of all kinds, an in- -. sufficient supply of wood for fuel, and small reserves in oils and jrease. Soaps are scarce. Corn meal is difficult to obtain in any quantity. There is also a lack of cheese, and fresh eggs have dis-appeared from the markets. . . " Besides that, the stocks of coffee and sugar are almost ex- -' hausted and the dried vegetables that have been imported have all been consumed. This state of suffering has been brought about by the "unrestricted", submarine warfare, neutral vessels having been sunken by the score. There will be no relief from this situa-tio- u until the German junker army is overthrown, and Vvhoever loes anything that will retard that event is an enemy of mankind. The dispatches indicate that there is even more suffering in Hol- -' land and the Scandinavian countries than'in Switzerland. 1,71 6,000,000 1 rPounds of Flour Saved if each of our 22,000,000 families use this recipe , ' instead of white bread.

A distinguished man who has recently visited some of the cantonments where the men had been drilled for some months under the intensive training which is applied everywhere, remarked that it seemed almost miraculous how the dregs of the pool room, dragged specimens from the tenement districts, had been transformed into real men who would never go back to their former condition. Now they are "men," which is something they never were before. They are as-sets to society and not liabilities. He called to mind that the young men who had been taken from desks to fight in the civil war never went back to them. They started out and built the new west, and he thought that same class of men who are going into this war would becofne - leaders in the industries and business world of the future. Those who escape the hazards of war will find an open field for their energies in the reconstruction of the world, both physically and politically. All thinkers recognize that we are going into a new world when peace is declared. THE "FIFTY-FIFTY-" FOODMnTI Food Administrator Armstrong Urges Utahns to Save for Our Soldier Boys, i ; New Regulations Made Vitally Neces-sary If the Critical Shortage of Foodstuffs to Be Sent Abroad Is to Be Avoided. rerhups we don't know Just where our boys are In France nor how they fare. They may be cold, sick, In cons-tant danger. Our last thoughts at tilght are of them; let's have our first thoughts In the morning be of how ,. we can , send wem Sr-- help. We know that V we 'olIow cwn" vff mnfE etientlously the re- - V II I III) l,"'st8 ' t,1R Food VjlJI XQjtJI Administration that fcjjaK""py our boys will jiever have to count storv-atlo- n among their hardships, nor will" they have to go hungry. And we know also that all the food stuffs sent over to feed the boys In the trenches are saved by careful mothers. We are feeding our boys with the bread and meat we go with-out ourselves nnd we are denying them sustenance when we are care-less or selfish in not obeying the re-quests of the Food Administration. . The exigencies of war fare are ever changing, and these new regulations of the Food Administration are made vitally necessary If the critical short-age of food stuffs to scud abroad Is to be avoided. The porkles Saturdays are gone, now we may Indulge in a good Satur-day night dinner of ham and eggs, or pork and beans, and still be a patriot. Mondays and Wednesdays are still to be wheatless with one wheatless meal every day throughout the week. Tuesday is to be beefless and porkless only; mutton and lamb are Just the thing for Tuesday's meals. We are also asked to observe the following regulations which have come Into existence by the extraordinarily pressing necessity for wheat conserva-tion. WHITE FLOUR may not be sold unless at the same time the customer buys and takes at least the same amount, pound for pound by weight, of one or more of the following sub-stitutes: Bran, Shorts. Middlings, Corn flour, Corn meal. Edible corn starcu, Hominy, Corn grits, Hurley flour, Itolled oats, iatmeal.jHIce, Kice flour, Buckwheat flour, I'otato flour. Sweet-potat- o flour, Milo flour, Iyifflr flour, Kaffir meal, Feterlta flour. Feterita meal, Soya bean meal, I'eanut meal. Dry beans. Four pounds of potatoes may be sold as the equivalent of one pound of above substitutes. WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR and GRAHAM FLOUR (containing not less than 20 per cent bran and shorts) may be sold six pounds of flour to four pounds of substitutes. We will nuve difficulty, of course, In finding an adequate supply of substi-tutes, though these supplies are now rapidly Increasing, but until our local grocers have their stocks well covered, we must all be patient and remember that this Is not a question of Incon-venience or even of hardships, we must do these thing whether we like it or not. We must feed our boys. W. W. ARMSTRONG. j Federal Food Administrator, Utah. ALIEN ENEMY PROPERTY SHOULD BE. SEIZED. The people are just being informed of the enormous amount , of German-owne- d property in this country in much of which the Oerman government is directly interested. In financial circles in New York the facts have been common knowledge for a long time. An estimate made some time ago in one of the papers of the financial district, placed the amount of property so owned in that city alone at $3,000,000,000. That the Kaiser has had large personal deposits in some of the New York banks, not however in his own name, has often been asserted. The government of the United "States will never confiscate outright the property of private citizens of Germany, however hard pressed it may be though it may use it as a "hostage" to effect a fair accounting with Germany. But the property of the German government, or property in which it has a large interest stands, in international, law, on an entirely different basis. When ' the German government partially owns great interests, like the immense docks in Hoboken and many manufacturing concerns, the remainder of the ownership being vested in alien enemies, it is altogether right that proper measures should be taken to secure possession and use it in the prosecution of the war. SENTIMENT AGaTnST CUTTING OUT LIGHTS Salt Lake City and Other Communi-ties Decide Street Lights Must Re-main and Money Saved in Some Other Way? It is doubtful if any mote along the.-line-of saving money In the adminis-tration of the affairs of municipalities i in Utah has attracted more attention! throughout the entire state than the, decision reached by the board of com-- 1 missioners of Salt ILake City recently I that it is impractical and highly un- - j safe for a community to attempt to save money by cutting out any part of Its street lighting system. The question came up In Salt Iake as to whether or not it would be best for the city commissioners to save $10,000 annualty by cutting out a num-ber of street electric arc lamps In the centers of long blocks. After carefully considering the move from every angle, and in the face of a flood of protests against the cutting out of the lights, from citizens in every section of the city, together with vig-orous protests from Juvenile court authorities, police officers, church cieties. labor unions and fire depart--' ment authorities, the citv commission-ers voted to retain all street lamps. ! So great a protest was raised against "eliminating street lights as a matter of municipal economy that It. Is doubt-ful If the question will ever come up again. j It was pointed out that street light-ing Is used primarily for two purposes, f'rst. the convenience and safety or citizens, particularly those on foot; while on the street; and. second, as an i added police protection and precau-- j tion. It was shown that the elimina-tion of adequate lighting increases ac- - eldents to citizens and either Increases j crime on the street and burglaries in i the homes, or materially increases; costs of police protection. It was plainlv pointed out that the small amount of saving to be effected by any reduction In a community street light--' Ing system can be easily offset by ser-- i ious accidents to citizens, and by in-- ! crease of crime, burglary and Increas- - j ed cost of police protection. j A number of western cities werej communicated with. In Seattle, Spok-- j anc, Portland. San Francisco, Los An-- j geles. Denver, and other places and the answers received Indicated that the authorities in charge of municlnal affairs in these cities consider the maintenance of adequate street light-ing highly essential and that no move to cut down the number of lamps In operation will be given consideration. Another point that created a strong Impression was Jhe fact that citizens affected by a reduction In a number of j street lamps In operation do not have their taxes decraaed In proportion to ' the decreased protection which they; receive. A particularly strong protest was sent in to the Salt Iake City board of j commissioners by laboring organir.a--j tlons throughout the elty, who called attention to the fact that the present Is a time when all available man-powe- r is needed In every community, and that the houra of work of many labor j ing people necessitates their being onj the streets at night, when decreased , street lighting would constitute a aer-- i Ious menace to their personal safety. . , Reports from many states elsewhere ; In the country Indicate that towns and rural communities are abandoning ell j thought of a reduction In street light-- 1 Ing as a matter of municipal economy, j and are directing their attention toj other things in an effort to operate to fie greatest advantage during warj time. j A WAR BREAD RECIPE A palatable, nutritious- - nnd digest-ible bread recipe given by Miss Liny M.
