STATE WAR GOUNGIL AND PRIORITY RULES ‘Manufacturers Invited to Bring Troubles to Council’s Door 17.—The through Hartford, Oct. ment at Washington, Cuuncil of Natidnal Defense, has es- | tablished rules of priority in iron and steel products closely affecting the in- | application by the manufacturers con- dustries of this state, and the Con- | n necticut State Council of Defense an- ! the material they need and of the nounced today that it is ready to aid order or orders to be fllled. the manufacturers of the state with concerning that the various orders take rank and Con- Mecticut council has been closely in- | order, orders in class Al, for example, terested in the question of establish- a priority system and was the first of the various state councils of Such orders taking precedence over of material of the same kind required for information and advice he new arrangements. The ing the country to urge the Council National Defense to establish a prior- ity board. The new priority rules in steel and Everyone Should ~ Drink Hot Water in the Morning Wash away all the stomach, liver, and bowel poisons before breakfast. _— To fee] your best day in and davy out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile to coat your tongue and sicken your breath or dull your head; no constipa- tion, bilious attacks, sick headache, colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stomach, you must bathe on the in- side like you bathe outside. This is vastly more important, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says a well-known physician. To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of lime- stone phosphate in it. This will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimentary tract, before putting more food into the stomach. Get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your pharmacist. [t is inexpensive and almost tasteless, | except a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot witer every morning to rid your sys- tem of these vile poisons and toxins; also to prevent their formation. To feel like young folks feel; lila you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became saturated with an ac- cumulation of body poisons, begin this treatment and above all, keep it up! A% soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and puri- 1ying, so limestone phosphate and hot water before breakfast, act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. govern- 3 the | by the priorities committee of |H. G. sparrow, iron provide, in effect, that all work done by industrial concerns through- out the country be classified into three general groups known as Classes A, B and C. All orders for war ma- terials, munitions and other imple- ments of warfare are listed under Class A. Orders for work of public interest that are not necessarily con- cerned with the conduct of the war are listed in Class B and everything else is listed in Class C. Each of the three classes is further subdivided into Classes Al, A2, Bl1, B2, etc. Shipments Determined by Priorities. The classifications are determined the war industries board of the Council of National Defense at Washington on | cerned, who must state the nature of The war industries board then sees to it precedence according to their listed taking precedence over all others and materials needed for the filling of any other work. Connecticut, on account of its in- dustries which are closely related to the conduct of the war, is vitally con- cerned in the regulations laid down at Washington. A very large propor- tion of its industries are directly in- terested in the priority rules Ilaid down, although steel and iron prod- ucts are the only ones regarding which rules have yet been made, be- cause of the number of factories in this state which fabricate iron into munitions and other ma- terial of warfare. & State Council Acted Early. The views of the state council of ! defense were expressed to the national | council early in July in a resolution | strongly urging the establishment of a national priority board and point- ing out that such a board, to be high- | ly successful, should have wide duties ! and wide powers. The establishment | of the board, it was urged, would aid | the manufacturers of the state greatly !in securing “final authoritative in- formation on the kinds and quantities of production which the federal gov- ernment will want of Connecticut.” The statement also pointed out me!‘ difficulties facing Connecticut in the | | matter of obtaining and distributing the skilled labor required for muni- | tions and other manufacturers so that | vital industries could be cared for without necessarily crippling those which are only indirectly essential to | the nation’s welfare. The Connecticut State Council of Defense is willing and ready to do | all in ite power, it announces, to aid | manufacturers in complying with the rules laid down by the National Pri- , ority Board by giving what informa- tion it has at hand or is able to pro- cure and by helping concerns to get the priority to which they may be entitled, DANIELS HAS NEW AIDE. ‘Washington, Oct. 17.—Command r formerly executive officer of the battleship Pennsylvania, | today began his duties as aide to Secretary Daniels, succeeding Lieut. iCon‘Amflndcr Byron McCandless, as- ! signed to sea duty at his own request.

New ideas also have been and are constantly being worked out with a view to rendering the work of the sub- marines increasingly difficult. For in- stance two officers working on designs for new destroyers, have introduced many new ideas gained from observa- tions made in this anti-submarine game. Still others have suggested changes in gun firing. In fact, some- thing new, although not alw: cable, is being worked out time. Every destroyer has to its credit at least one encounter with a spbmarine, while some of the more fortunate have stalked two or three underwater craft. At no time, however, have the subma- rines shown fight. They always avoid a meeting. The depth charges are feared most by the U-boat commanders. These’ weapons are high explosives fixed to explode by water pressure at a desired depth. The wide cruising radius of the American boats also has helped to pro- duce unmistakable signs of a weaken- ing in the morale of the U-boat crews, They have made the U-boats spend 'more time under than they used to do. There is not so much destruc- tion of ghips by gunfire and bombs as formerly. The augmented destroyer patrol has made the submarines use up more torpedoes with the result that they have to return to their base more frequently for reloading. When not patrolling the shipping lanes the destroyers have been convey- ing food and supply ships and trans- ports. An assignment to convoy American troop ships is welcomed by the men, many of whom feel that rel- atives and friends may be on the transports. The destroyers also have taken laur- els in the humanitarian task of res- cuing survivors of torpedoed ships. The Americans began snatching torpe- doed crews from watery graves the day of their arrival and for a long time not a week passed without sev- eral destroyers accounting for survi- vors. This rescue work is more often than not done in mine-affected areas and places where U-boats are known to be lurking, and is always attended by great danger to the rescuer. Fre- quently while one destroyer is picking up survivors another will run pro- tecting circles around the scene. More often, however, the hazardous work is done single-handed, the destroyer guns booming into space as. a warning to submarines not to tempt to interfere. In tempestuous weather this work puts the men’s qualities of seaman- ship to severe test. 5 practi- 1 the NOTED HUMORIST TO SPEAK. T. A. Daly Engaged By St. Mary's So- dality to Come Here. T. A.

Copenhagen, Oct. 17.—Count von Reventlow, mouthpiece of the German admiralty publishes in his newspaper, the Tages Zeitung of Berlin, an ar- ticle preparing his readers for a de- destructiveness in September as shown by the Ger- man statistics publication of which is about due. In addition to his earlier explanation of the decrease in the figures of tonnage sunk, von Revent- low advances the theory that Great Britain has withdrawn ships from service for the remainder of the ycar in order to have them in readiness to transport the Argentine harvest in January. These withdrawals, he says, decrease the opportunities of the submarines for sinkings. This theory contrasts strikingly with his earlier assertions that Great Britain’s avail- able tonnage already had become too small for its needs. Sudden- changes in the routes of ships, he says, are making it in- creasingly difficult for submarines to locate their prey. He attributes to American authority a statement that the passage of passenger liners be- tween America and England now re- quires 26 days. Admiralty Mouth- So Much THHATER TAX POSTPONED.
