Re- tailers may not charge more than one cent a pound profit on sugar, and. on sales of more than one pound, the profit should be one cent times the number of pounds sold, the consumer getting the benefit of the fractional cents. “Cereals need no longer be packed in uniform packages. ‘““Wholesalers may make so-called combination sales; retailers are still forbidden to make combination sales. “The food administration’s restric- tions on Christmas candies have been rescinded. “General orders No. 8 and No. 9 for public eating places, forbidding the open sugar bowl and limiting the sugar service to four pounds per 90 meals served, have been rescinded. General order No. 7 limiting the service of American (Cheddar) cheese is very much in force and butter should also be economically served. “For some weeks the wheat sub- stitute rules have been revoked and the United States government, upon application to this office, will under- take to relieve dealers, bakers and others under certain specified coadi- tions of excess holdings of substi- tutes. “In its control of ice and ice prices, the food administration has revoked all restrictions and instructions. “Reports from bakers, grala deal- ers and others are no longer reguired by the United States food adminis- tration. “Reports of food savings are no longer required from public eating places and no more monthly report cards will be sent out. ‘“The rule, which would have for- bidden after January 1, 1919, the sale of butter and cheese in less than one pound lots, has been revoked. “Cases of rejections of carloads of foodstuffs, which have been handled by the enforcement division, are gradually being permitted to follow their usual pre-war course and will all be soon taken over by the proper courts. ‘““The special rules and regulations on fruits and vegetables, including potatoes, have been rescinded. “Isidore Wise aof Hartford, state merchant representative for the food administration, desires all local food directors to be prepared for a possi- be intensive campaign of poster dis- play and store window exhibits soon after the holidays and local mer- chants should be urged to co-operata along lines to be explained to you later. “Posters, both new and old, are still obtainable upon request to this office and in this connection we again urge our lacal food directors to hold fast until more definite instructioas are received from Mr. Hoover. “There is no safe way of telling whether or not America , must in- crease its pledge of 20,000,000 tons of foodstuffs to starving Europe, and it is, of course, unnecessary for us to point out that it is much easier to hold our present organization intact and to maintain the present spirit ot co-operation and conservation than it is to have to reconstruct all over again.” LOCKED IN SALOON WAS RIGHT AT HOME Patron of Dudjak’s Helps Himself to “Supplies” and Sleep on Pool Table. Andrew Osga was accidently locked in Theodore Dudjak’s saloon last night when the bartenders closed up for the | night. He was found at o'clock this morning asleep on the pool table by the proprietor, after he had been called to get a ‘“burglar” that had broken into his saloon. Finding that he could not get out of the saloon, Osga evidently decided to make the best of it, and helped himself to several packages of cigarettes and some whiskey. He was fined $5 and costs for the theft of the whiskey and cigarettes. At about 4:45 this morning Frank Lunkavich, while going to work, looked into the window of the saloon and seeing Osga on the pool table ran to Mr. Dudjak’s home to notify him. He then called Officer Patrick Howley Mr. Dudjak and the officer found | Osga on the table, and he told the | story of being locked up in the saloon. That his story is true is shown by the five NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, G0OD Give Him A Chest Of TOOLS $5.00 to $10.00 Hardware HERBERT L.

After the services they stood on the outside and distributed their hand- bills to the Russians. There were 12 men in all but the other 7 made their getaway before the officers arrived. Grisduk pleaded guilty to handling the bills, stating that they were given him by mempers of ‘“the organiza- tion” in Hartford, having rooms at 54 Market street.
