IT IS DOING SOME GOOD i AUTHENTIC reports show X the New England states i have faced, not merely a sugar shortage, but a sugar j famine. It has been impossi- ble to buy sugar there. It may be assumed this condition will ; by no means be permanent. : Yet the fact sugar is so scarce there gives us a line on what the west might be facing in the way of price boosting were ; it not lor the regulatory efforts ! of the food administration. In ! Pendleton the sugar price is I not much higher than it was j during peace. It is a triumph either for Hoover, for our mer chants or for both. Golldeiri.West.jr Bsflhebosti; 'Coffs;! because it;!

It is of the greatest value be cause the success of our war waging must depend greatly upon the efficiency shown in turning out war material.

Refugee families cared jfor are an asset because these people when able to do so will fight and work in any manner possible towards an allied vic tory.
