Flour Substitutes Are Lacking in Bend Shortage; Makes Keeessary Modifica tion . of Fnrehaie Order, permitting Sale of White Flosr Alone. Bend, Or., Feb. 0. As a '. result of a food survey here to determine the amount of flour substitute available it has developed that there is not a sufficient quantity of , other grains to satisfy the requirement ' that 17 pounds of substitute shall be purchased with every 60 pounds of white flour. H. C. Hartranft, chairman of the local district, appealed for some relaxation of the order with the result that modi fications have been made. Under the new ruling granted, per sons who are unable . to procure the substitute may buy flour straight - pro vided they secure a permit from the local chairman. It la claimed that the few flour substitutes available are so high that their purchase is entirely Impractical. Local grocers have ex perienced trouble in getting a suffi cient quantity of the substitutes from the wholesale houses.

TODAY FOR THE LAST TIMES TOMORROW REPLY OF HOLMAN TO THE STATEMENTS OF ROADMASTER YEON Commissioner Says .Offers' Have Been Made to Do Work at Less Cost to County. Rufus Holman, chairman of the board Lof. county commissioners, has prepared an extended answer to the recent com municatlon ad&ressed to the board by Roadmaster John B. ' Teon. In which Mr. Teon t reviewed the dlffernces of opinion existing- between bis depart ment and Mr. Holman. Mr. : Holman - In his communication, which la of extended length, .'in turn reviews the controversy - between . Mr. Teon and himself, which began with the construction of. the .Vista House and the Initial appropriation of 112.000 lor that purpose. He charges that Mr. Teon, in asking for the first appro priation stated that the county would never be called upon for another cent" but that In spite of this promise the cost of the structure has been increased to more than f 65,000. v- .. : - Cost of Administration Cited Mr. Holman charges v that, although Mr. Teon draws no salary for his work as roadmaster, still his administration of the road work last year amounted to seven per cent of his construction costs, without taking into consideration Oe 6000 annual expenses of the county surveyor's office. - He has received an offer, Mr. Holman says, to do the same work at a cost of five per ,cent of the construction cost, the offer having been made by Harrington, Howard dc Ash, the engineers in .charge of " the construction of the, Interstate bridge. Photographs have been taken by Mr. Holman showing various pieces of road construction apparatus, such as -wagons. scrapers, wneel barrows ana water carts, standing In the open. The pic tures were taken during the , recent snowstorm and show the . equipment standing along the,' roadside, covered with snow and entirely unprotected from the elements, and are Incorporated In the statement to show lack of care on the part of the road master's de partment in the conservation of road building equipment owned by the county. . Holman Defines Responsibility T believe," Mr. Holman says in con cluding his statement, "that there Is of necessity an inseparable relation between the board of county commis sioners and the conduct of any of the departments under their jurisdiction and that the heads of departments are answerable to the county commission Try Sanlisrptlo ; After Shaving Saothinc. eoolin. refreshing.
