Through Toluntary sacrifices the American people have accomplished many of the same ends it has taken severe methods of food rationing to bring about in Europe, Oregon food ad ministration officials were told yes terday by Max Mayfleld. assistant di rector of the sugar division. United States food administration. Herbert Hoover reported on his recent return from Europe that food controllers there could not believe the American citizens were conserving such vast stores of foodstuffs and saving them for the allied nations voluntarily. "At present," said Mr. Mayfleld. "sugar sells for 5 cents ,a pound in Italy. 21 cents in France, 19 cents in England and 18 cents in Sweden. It is not generally known in this country, but the sole reason sugar remained cheap here and is now retailing at 11 cents is because Mr. Hoover had the foresight to tie up the Cuban supply with contracts. "Oregon citizens have done well In the matter of sugar, for they have lived within their allotment." Mr. Mayfleld has already visited 28 states on this mission of checking up the food officials on their methods of handling the sugar problems. He de clared that cessation of the war will give no cause for let-up in food saving In the United States for more than a year, at least. The visitor is a Western man. being connected with a big mer cantile firm at Boise, Idaho, but is now the dolar-a-year assistant of George M. Rolph, head of the food administra tion sugar division.

WHY YOTT SHOULD BCYW.S.S. The main reason Is because your country is at war and needs every penny that every man, woman and child can lend to feed, clothe and arm and equip our soldiers and sailors. War Bavers are life-savers. Everyone can do his share. Like liberty bonds, the entire resources of the Government and the people of the U. S. A. are behind war savings stamps. In purchasing stamps you are getting the best security in the world, and In the most conven ient form. And you further get a most liberal return on the money loaned. Oregon needs to sell more stamps to meet her quota. Are you buying all yoa can? C. S. JACKSON. State Director. Dm ofm Bmrimm mf Infg imutlwA rtlclmm M Dental Bvmium Ai. 11 Does Cheap Service Pay? THIS is a question people often ask themselves after hav ing had an experience where price is the chief consideration. Especially where a man's knowledge, honesty, and skill make up the personal "service," inca as in dentistry. It Is always well o know ra advance about what the de sired service Is to cost, and and then decide which you want. No one should takm chancm with their health or their teeth. Art I acini substi tutes for natural teeth, while often necessary, are but make shifts at best, and unless properly fitted, will never give comfort and satisfaction. Beware of allurements which offer low-priced dentistry and a guarantee for one, five, ten. or fifteen years. Dental work of. merit ae mo guaramimm. There is as much din ere nee in the quality of dental work as there is i n the products of any other pursuit. Skill is worth what It costs. So is health. So Is comfort.

To the People of Multnomah County : Unable to find any real flaw in my record as your Representative in Congress, the "Smith for Congress Club" has printed a paid advertisement containing numerous false statements and injecting spurious issues into the campaign. The "Smith for Congress Club" says that I voted against arming American ships. This charge is abso lutely false, as I voted just the opposite. (See Con gressional Record, March 1, 1917.) I also voted for numerous other preparedness measures in 1916 while John S. Smith was delivering "he kept us out of war" harangues from a soap box on the streets of Portland. The "Smith for Congress Club" says that I voted against the Espionage Act. This charge is likewise false. In company with every member of the House present, I voted for the Espionage Act after the infamous "press gaff" clause had been stricken out. The "Smith for Congress Club" says that I voted against the Administration shipping bill two years ago. This is about the only true charge that the aforesaid "Club" has made, but the public should know that the Democratic majority refused to amend the bill so as to safeguard our country against international complications with our present allies. The "Smith for Congress Club" has made several other charges that cannot be substantiated, but they are too ridiculous to admit of serious consideration. Respectfully submitted, C. N. McARTHUR.
