NO RESTRICTION PUT ON USE OF LAMB Only Time It May Not Be Used Is On Meatless Days, Declares W. B. Ayre. There is no restriction on the use of lamb as meat on any except meat less days which are now universally observed, according to representa tives of the food administration, In a public statement. In some manner the impression has gone out that the food administration frowns on the use of lamb as meat. This is not true. Some time ago it was suggested that it would be a con servation of food to prohibit the sale of any except adult beef and mutton. When the matter was fully consid ered, it was pointed out that the lamb, so-called, is in reality, almost a full grown animal and that other con siderations make it imperative, for the sake of the industry, to sell a cer tain amount of lamb yearly so that there is no objection to the use of lamb as meat. A telegram from the representative of food administration follows, to gether with a statement from W. B. Ayer, Oregon food administrator: "The food administration has plac ed no restrictions on the use of lamb except on meatless days for the rea son that food administration has real ized that lamb must be consumed In order to maintain the producers and give them a fair profit. The adminis tration hopes the falling off in con sumption will not Injure the indus try." "It will be recalled," said Mr. Ayer, "that immediately after my appoint ment last August, I had a conference with the sheepmen of Eastern Oregon regarding the use of lamb. After the conference I presented the matter to Washington, with the result that Mr. Hoover issued a statement similar to Mr. Cotton's telegram to the presi dent of the Wool Growers association. Mr. Cotton probably wishes to encou rage the sheepmen of Eastern Oregon to breed for a full lamb crop nest spring." CAIII) OP THANKS.

It was the purpose of German Intrigue, working hand In hand with paid In dian tools, to effect a treaty between China and Germany whereby China was to smuggle arms and munitions to the revolters In India. Letters had been seized In New York uncovering the plot. The Federal Trade Commission has bared a plot in the Chicago stock yards, which left unmolested would have gained control of the food of the nation with J. Ogden Armour as dic tator. Disclosures made public by the commission show that sensational "high finance" between the Chicago packers and the stockyards and the terminal railroads has been and would have been a greater factor in causing the high cost of living. The report of the President's Labor Commission headed by the Secretary of Labor Wilson, says that the efforts to settle the Oregon City paper mill strike failed because officials of the Crown-Willamette Paper company, with headquarters In San Francisco, refused to arbitrate.
