Rc-Stalement of
War A ims Delayed
At Allied Council
(fir Unitoil I'rna to Th Dllr Bullntln)
IIOMK, Dec. 3. Tho inter-
allied council decided today to
postpone temporarily the re-
statement of war alms. It is
believed that this action Is taken
- because the delegates believe
that tho allies should first sot-
tie more pressing war condl-
lions.
Colonel House presided at the
meeting and spoke briefly In re-
gard to an allied statement of
war alms, before war experts to-
day. 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. Certain models will
be adopted and used on every
front by every army.

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." ,
