Most of the Americans In attendance at the council were visiting tho front today. - . It was learned hat the coun- til has decided to standardize airplanes.

RED GROSS SOON Candies Minus Sugar are Soon to Become Popular Acting on orders received from State Food Administrator W. B. Ayer, McBrlde's nnd Logan & Couch candy factories are using sugar this month equal to only half ot the amount used during the corresponding month last year. At McBride's the sugar allot ted for use in November and Decem ber Is already exhausted, while the Logan & Couch confectionery has still a small quantity on hand, due to the fact that work was practically sus pended for several days when the fac tory was moved recently from Wall street to Greenwood. As a satisfactory substitute : for sugar candles, both establishments are now specializing on nut and fruit center chocolates for tho Christmas trade. The new confections are des tined to become highly popular, it Is believed. Corn Byrup Is also being extensively used wherever possible, as a sugar substitute. Hard candies and 1Y J III I N ARM TO DECEMBER 15 DRAFTED MEN GIVEN OPPORTUNITY. Itcgulullons Temporarily Suspended for Men Colled For Kxamlnntioti, Who Dealre to Knllxt In Army or tho Navy ut Once. All men of draft age, who aro not called into Immediate service, al though they have been called by the local board for physical examination, may enlist in either army or navy be fore December 15. Word to this ef fect was received this morning by Sheriff Roberts in a telegram from Acting Adjutant General John M. Williams in Portland. The question has been occupying the minds of a number of local men, who desired to go into service but were hampered by draft regulations which held them tor the national army. The following telegram from the provost marshal general, was repeat ed In today's communicaition and gives complete information: "Be tween now and December 15 it has been decided to afford registrants as wide an opportunity as possible to en- lb'. In both army and navy. There fore any registrant, though he has been called by Ills local board to re port for physical examination, may enlist up to December 15. This is to done upon presentation to the re cruiting officer of a certificate from his local board stating that he will not be needed to fill any deferred per centage of the quota of the board, regardless of re-examination of reg istrants under the new regulation. Each board should keep available and should refuse permission to enlist to a sufficient number of selected men to complete the deferred percentages of their quotas." To Mull Questionnaires. The date of mailing the question naires to the five per cent ot the reg istrants coming next in order of num bers has been set for December 15, and not before this time as was at first understood by the draft board. A letter from the adjutant general's office states that inquiries from sev eral sources indicate a possible mis apprehension that the questionnaire is not to be mailed to men who have already been inducted Into military service. The questionnaire is to be mailed to every registrant whose reg istration card is within the Jurisdic tion of the local board regardless ot whether or not the registrant has previously voluntarily enlisted or been Inducted into military service through the draft. County Clerk J. H. Haner Is ex pected back from Prineville tomor-. row night to arrange details for send ing two more men to Camp Lewis to replace John Robert McKenzie and Harry Thomas, who were rejected last week. TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS. The Modern Woodmen of America and the Royal Neighbors lodges will hold a Christmas tree in Sather's hall on Christmas eve and Christmas day. A program, good music and refresh ments will be some ot the features ot the occasion. one or two other varieties, however. It has been found impossible to sub stitute tor, and the stocks are being rapidly depleted. Manufacture of candies with a large .sugar content will again be made possible in Jan uary, when the supply for that month will be available. At both confectioneries the situa tion is being taken very philosophical ly. "It It's to help win the war, I'nj for it," declared H. D. McBrlde. "I would gladly close down the entire store, If I thought it would bring the end of the war closer." "We're glad to do without sugar If it will help defeat the KalBer," E. O. Logan, ot Logan & Couch, said. "It merely means that we are having to cut off a lot of our outside terri tory, and give Bend first choice. We expect, however, that conditions will be remedied materially early in th next year." ,
