Put Stamp Of Approval On Cash And Carry System.

Indiana grocers have put their stamp of approval on the cash-and carry plan, and the indications are that the delivery systems are doomed to go out of business, until the end of the war. Nearly one hundred delegates chosen to represent the grocers of their respective counties, in the state, summoned ■to Indianapolis Wednesday for a conference with Dr. Harry Barnard, Federal food inspector of Indiana, reached the decision after hearing a stirring message from national food administrator, Hoover. The delegates almost to a man, voted‘on the resolution favoring the plan as outlined by the national food administration and soon to be bulletined throughout the United States as an official order. “This is a war measure only,” said Stanley Wuckoff, Marion county Federal food-- ‘administrator, “and Mr. Hoover said he was looking to Indiana to set an example for the entire country in one of the most important steps that can be taken to help win the war. After the war you may go back to the old way of selling your groceries, if you eare tor and I doubt you will after trying this plan.”

Representatives of the grocers convened at ten o’clock Wednesday morning and the first question brought up was one fixing the reasonable basis of profit iThis was passed and slips were distributed to the delegates, who were asked to fix the lowest percentage of profit on stated commodities that would enable them to continue in business. The question then came up of the cash-and-carry plan, Dr. Bernard defending it as the salvation of the small grocery from encroachments of the chain stores and t£e mail order houses. The grocers were of the opinion that the government’s proposition did away with the delivery System altogether, and seemed to be unconvinced until Mr. Wychoff gave the following explanation: “I am bringing a personal message to you from Herbert Hoover,the national food administrator, who gives his full sanction to the cash and cary plan and urges its adoption as a war measure the same as the meatless and wheatless days. He believes it will mean a saving of 8 to 12 per cent for the groceryman afiif where the grocer saves, the consumer will save. More saved for food means that the people will buy more bonds and the government is going to need every spare dollar to win the war. In addition to the saving of money it will conserve manpower and the shipyards and other war plants are badly in need of men. There isn’t a grocery store in Germany, Austria, or France, and they are rapidly going in England, because these governments realized that the space between the producer and the consumer must be reduced. The abolishment of the grocery store is the one thing that this government wants to avoid, and it is the firm belief of Mr. Hoover that the cash-and-carry plan will solve the problem.” -/•’ I, “Mr. Hoover personally told me,” continued Mr. Wyckoff, “that he is looking to Indianapolis and Indiana to set an example for the United States. America must feed the west line and England and France if we want to win this war. We have only scratched the surface, regulation has only started.” Mr. Wyckoff explained that the cash and carry plan did not mean the end .of the delivery or credit systems, but that if the customer wanted his goods delivered or wanted credit he must pay a bonus. A resolution was also passed with enthusiasm asking the fuel administrator to issue an order closing all food stores on Sunday. resolution was also adopted calling for one delivery a day or a co-operative plan. Will H. Hays stirred the delegates with a patriotic address in which he called ori them to help stem the German tide which threatened to sweep away all of the high principles to which this nation is consecrated.

REPUBLICAN EDITORS ADOPT RESOLUTIONS.

At Meeting Of Indiana Republican Editorial Association, January 25, 1918. “In this mdst solemn and serious hour that has cqme to our beloved country since its dismemberment was threatened by the great conflict of ’6l to ’65, we, the Republican editors of Indiana, pledge our inflinching loyalty to our government and tp the cause of the allied arms in the world conflict for the rights of the individual man.

“We commend the Republican senators and the Republican delegation from Indiana sot supporting by vote and voice legislation for the maintenance and efficiency of our. army and navy. “We declare our pride in the successful program and development of the several activities having to do with the preparation of Indiana’s participation in the prosecution of the war, which has been earned on so successfully as greatly to distinguish our State throughout the country. . . “We fully realize that this is not the time for idle and carping criticism, and we desire that no word of ours be so contrued, but we do believe that constructive suggestions are always timely and good, and that loyalty does not require complacent acceptance of demonstrated blunders. Loyalty is expressed by action. . “Resolved, That we believe the wisest measure yet proposed for speeding up and vitalizing the work of making our national power efficient it that proposed in the Senate for the creation of a war cabinet of three distinguished Americans. “Resolved, That we also approve the bill for creating a. director of munitions, whose duty it shall be to co-ordinate the purchasing departments, introducing real business methods into the conduct of the war and ending the confusion and chaos which thus far prevailed.

“Resolyed, That we are utterly opposed to all proposals for government ownership of utilities. Where industries are taken oyer by the government as war measures the enabling act should provide that the new condition shall terminate within a reasonable time, not to exceed one year after peace has been restored. We do not believe that a war for the rights of men can successfully terminate by losing the individual in the maze of government ownership. “Resolved, That we approve, not only as a war measure but as a peace measure, legislation which ends profiteering upon the necessities of the people. “Resolved, That on this day when the foundation of government by the people is threatened, we believe the Republican party deserves and has the confidence of the people to a degree enjoyed by no other. It stands for liberty in all lands. It stands for the common man and his rights. “We greatly rejoice at the restoration to health of Governor James P. Goodrich. We applaud and indorse the efficient administration of our State affairs by Governor Goodrich and his colleagues in the several State offices.

“We note with interest and gratification the possibility that Will HHays, chairman of the/ Indiana Republican State Committee, whose wise leadership and untiring energy were such important factors in resoring Indiana to the column of Republican States, may be chosen chairman of the National Republican Committee. We heartily indorse Mr. Hays’s management of the party’s affairs in Indiana and we can assure the Republicans of the nation that if called to a higher field they will find in Mr. Hays an organizer of demonstrated and recognized ability, a fair and just leader and a steadfast Republican. The Republicans of the nation, would do well to consign to. his case the management of party affairs.

“We extend greetings to Hon. George B. Lockwood, publisher of the Nationad Republican, who has moved his publication to Washington D. C. It is our sincere hof>e that the fullest measure of success may attend his endeavor in his new and wider field. “Within a few week this association has lost by death two prominent and faithful workers —Isaac N. Brown of the Columbus Republican and Newton R. Spencer of the Greenfield Republican. Both were true Americans. Their written word was ever for the good of their community. Isaac N. Brown was loyal soldier in the war for the Union. “Resolved, That we do hereby testify to the sterling qualities of these colaborers. We bemoan their death and shall ever treasure their memories as we miss their kindly presence.” I JULIAN D. HOGATE, • Danville Republican, Chairman. - our Classified (Mum .
