| | | j i yy i a Page Six NO PERMIT TOBE ALLOWED War Industries Ban Extends to New Construction of All Kinds, Says Letter Received by Local Council From the comment and criticism of the War Industries board on appli- cations for building permits submit- ted them by the Council of Defense, the conclusion is reached that their policy is to permit no new construc- tion of any kind, not already allow- ed, says a communication received by | E. Richard Shipp, Natrona county chairman. 1 The War Industries board asks that all county councils be impressed with the conviction that this is a necessary War measure, adopted after careful consideration, and that the success of the plan will largely depend upon the earnest and loyal co-operation of the county councils. The next few months are the most important in the life of this nation, it is pointed out, and it behooves the people to take nothing from the war program. To this end all labor and material will be diverted to the war needs of the country and the effect of the rul- ing already is being felt in Casper.) When present contracts are complet-) ed carpenters will be released for war | purposes and this condition has been largely responsible for the response| to calls for men to work in the mu- nition plants and shipyards of the country. | A contractor who had three build- ings to erect prior to the inaugura- tion of the new rulings called at the office of the labor agent Friday and made inquiries regarding the accept-, ance of employment in war work,| convinced that the mmediate future | holds little prospect of a resumption} of activities. | The latest interpretation of the gov-| ernment order is a ban on new build- ing operations of all kinds with the exception of war plants and struc-! tures absolutely necessary to the suc- cessful promulgation of the war.! Heretofore many applications for) permits have been forwarded to head- auarters but in the future it is likely’ that the majority of these requests’ will be tabled here.

ALLIES FACING DIFFICULT JOB WITH RUSSIANS ARCHANGEL, Oct. 19.—(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press) — Difficulty besets the Government of the North and its Allied advisors in their attempt to bring order out of chaos of nine months of Bolshevik regime in the Archangel prévince. Slowly but surely, the task is going forward, but no one denies it is a difficult job. One problem the Allies confront is how to arouse the Russians to work for their own regeneration and tc join in the task of shaking off the grip of the Bolsheviki. Urging them to do so, the Sivernoie Utro, publish. ed here, says: “The French, British and American soldiers came here from all parts of the world to fight for the freedom and happiness of this country. The Russian people look upon the Allies with envy, with the eyes of a beggar watching a rich neighbor, and they are making but little efforf*themselves |to strive for a happier and freer life They expect that the others, the Al- lies for instance, will fight for them.” “Russia is now divided into two declared the Voxroshdenie “One is one the side of the monarchists, the Bolsheviki and the Germans; the other, all the democrat- ic elements of Russia supported by ines and by personal sacrifices and | desires to help the cause with which all America is in deep sympathy. Colonel Roosevelt's endorsement |of Mr. Carey’s candidacy conforms to on such stereotype form as those of Democratic officials at Washing- ton who are lending half-hearted sympathy to the Democratic cam-| paign in Wyoming, influenced as it] is by the realization that Wyoming | Republicans have given the war and administration measures whole-heart- j}ed support. Qn the other ‘hand Roosevelt’s commendations carry the highest appreciation and recognition of qualities which make Robert D. Carey the logical man for governor of Wyoming, and the deep-seated conviction that actuates such an en- dorsement is set forth in the state- ment that had he been permitted to organize a division for service in France, the colonel would have made the Republican candidate a high officer in his command. The communication of Colonel Roosevelt is self-explanatory and reads as follows: ‘Northern Hotel, “Billings, Mont., “October 5, 1918. “Hon. Robert D. Carey, “Careyhurst, Wyoming. “Dear Mr. Carey: On my trip to Billings I have passed thru Wyoming and I find to my very real pleasure that you are a candidate for governor on the Republican ticket. “You would have been a colonel | or lieutenant colonel in my division for service in France, if I had been | allowed to raise them; you would have made a t class fighti colonel; and you will make a first class fighting governor for the rights woman and child in Wyoming. “You are a practical working farmer and stockman identified, by your life and your method of earning your livelihood, with the farming, terests of Wyoming, and therefore, of the whole West.

PLAN 1S HOLDING FIRM FOR SOLDIERS STORES thy United Wrensl |, LONDON, Oct. 3.—(By . mail.)— A big municipal holding and operat- ing company may prove the solution of that big little economic problem, the one-man business. Hundreds of men who own and operate little stores —hardware storms, dry goods and no- tion stores, news stands, fruit stands —have béen called up for service in the army. Some few have been able to sell at a good price, and others have left the camp in charge of their wives. But a great many have had to put up their shutters and let the dust gather until the end of the war or sell out at a loss. Taken separately, one of these stores amounts to nothing in the whole huge scheme of British bus- iness. But as a section of the en- tire trade they are extremely impor- tant, and the hardship of their clos- ing has affected a considerable num- ber of industrious people. Hammersmith borough, London, probably will be the first borough to try out the idea of the holding com- pany. - Under the plan, substitute labor will be provided, and the con- cerns will be operated by the com- pany for the smallest possible cost to the owner. After the expense of operation has been defrayed the own- er or his dependents will freceive whatever profits are realized. NRO ee ‘than $20.

Russians who managed to make their way from the’ latter region to Petrograd declare that thousands of | Ruesian soldiers have been sent to the Baltic provinces to work on the es- tates of the pro-German Baltic bar-- ons.

This is the fag end of the cereal The Allies’ home supply is at its lowest; their need for outside help is at its highest. The Allies cannot hope to meet the military crisis on the first line trench unless we assure them help in the food crisis that threatens their rear guard of brave men, women and children left behind to build ships, make munitions and prepare clothing for those at the front. This is the reason the call has come that we must SAVE STILL MORE WHEAT to give the Allies. Instead of reducing our wheat consumption one-third as we have been urged to do, we must now reduce it one-half. This means that each person must limit his or her consumption of wheat products to one and one-half pounds per week. Direct orders should be formulated for the family by every patriotic house- keeper. In place of bread for dinner, she should demand that more potatoes be eaten, or, for variety, rice, as a vegetable, or hominy grits. BREAKFAST SHOULD BEGIN THE DAY NOT BY THE BREAKING OF BREAD, but by mush or prepared non-wheat products. the serving of oatmeal, cornmeal And the housewife must serve these breakfast cereals not apart from the eggs or coffee, but with them, so that the lack of bread will be met quite obviously. At luncheon, all bread served should be absolutely wheatless, and if potatoes are served, bread can be easily omitted. These are only a few of the housekeeper who wants to ELIMINATE WHEAT ENTIRELY from her menu and so make a high contribution to cause and country. ways that can be found by the of the country; and you possess in marked degree the saving grace of common s: tion would mean very much for earnestly wish success to you, and to | Senator Warren, and to all your as- sociates on the ticket. “With hearty regard, “Sincerely yours, “Theodore Roosevelt.” —_ A necessity is what we all need— Allmetal Weatherstrip is the neces- sity.
