ORA WFORDSY’ILLE, Ind., August ». —More than 92.000 worth of army foodstuffs was sold Monday through the Crawfordsville postofflee. The allotments given to the local office on two articles, rice and canned cherries, were exhausted before noon. Will H. Johnston. postmaster, expects that the entire allotment of foodstuffs given to the city will be exhausted within a day or two. Dry beans, bacon, canned corn and canned peas were in great demand. William Endicott, recently appointed food administrator for Montgomery county, has declined to serve, as he says his private business will not permit him to give the necessary' time,to the work. Endicott was food administrator during

the war.

Employes of the various factories of the city, at a meeting held Monday, selected nine of their members to serve on a "fair price" committee and transmitted the names to Endicott with the request that they be placed on the committee that has been appointed. The names were added to the committee by

Endicott.

Three of the men selected work at the Crawfordsville Wire and Nail Company factory, two at the Pioneer Box Company factory, two at the Match Corporation factory, and one each at the Poston Paving Brick Company plant, the Crawfordsville Casket Company and the Umphrey Manufacturing Company. In declining to serve as the food administrator Endicott suggested to H. E. Barnard, federal food administrator for Indiana, that Robert W. Caldwell, prosecuting attorney of Montgomery county, be named to serve as chairman. INVESTIGATES PRICES.

Daily Bulletins.

Through the press the board ie Issuing a aeries of daily bulletins explaining the new traffic regulations. Mr. Taggart pointed out that no provision is made in the new ordinance for "no parking spaces 1 in front of theaters. etc. He said the board had no authority to authorize such spaces, but that individuals desiring them should go to the common council and have the council amend the ordinance. The police department will place emphasis on maintaining safety aones. These must be respected during the entire twenty-four hours by drivers, whether there is anybody standing in the zones or not. The ordinance keeps the same rules which have existed relating to parking near fire plugs. Although the police will be patient about the new provisions of the ordinance, they will strictly enforce such provisions aa those regarding fire plugs, Mr.

Taggart said. ^

Accepts Resignations.

The board today accepted the resignations of traffic policeman Charlee A. Brumfield and patrolman W. A. McClure. Patrolman Frank T. Brooke was promoted to traffleman to succeed Brumfield on recommendations of Jerry Kinney, acting chief, and Lieutenant Johnson, in charge of traffic. Bicydeman Harry McCarter was reduced to patrolman because hla physical condition prevents him from riding a bicycle and patrolman Clarence Golder was promoted to fill the vacancy on recommendation of Chief Kinney. Renxil Williams, colored, was appointed substitute fireman on recommenda-

tion of Chief Loucks.
