The ofllclal exchange rate for the mark tor Sept ember atn headquarters of tho Amer ican Forcos In Germany was 22 marks to the dollar. Since Germany resumod commer cial relations with the outside world, sho has boon able to Import only moagre quantities of necessary and staple foodstuffs, with the excep tion of fish and milk, the food jour nals say.

Every year in tho United States 15,000 lives are lost and $390,000,- worth of property Is destroyed by fire. At any time that strict fire pre vention ia put Into general practice this loss can bo cut to 6,000 lives and $156,000,000, for investiga tions of fire marshals and under writers show that 60 per cent of fires are preventable by the use of only ordinary precaution. The remaining 40 per cent repre sents an appalling loss of life and property, but still remains the fact that If every man, woman and child in this community and other com munities making up the American union .will do his or her utmost to prevent a fire In their own home, 9,000 lives will bo spared every year and $234,000,000 ot tho nation's resources conserved. Today, October 9, will be general ly observed as Fire Prevention Day. In Klamath Falls, however, because ot other work, Fire Chief Miller has asked tho city council for support for a fire prevention day later on, prdbably October 23. Thore Is nothingin the chief's plan to provont citizens from clean ing up rags, old papers and rub bish piles before October 23, and, above all, making resolutions to ob serve every precaution inui win tend to cut down the great annual loss.
