NATIONS AGREE ON DISARMAMENT French and British in Accord on German Problem. LONDON, Jan. 4.—lt was eml-officially reported here today that the French and British general staffs are In accord on the question of German disarmament. The only difference was Britain did not wish to hurry the process, believing conditions were not ripe for dissolving the defense organization, although necessary as a barrier to “Bed" outbreaks. The British government was said to hold that Germany was not altogether responsible for the delay in surrendering big Berthas and new seventy-sevens. BERLIN, Jan. 4.—German cannot surrender all the arms demanded by the allies because she destroyed them, the government explained today in answer to FrancVs note on disarmament. Selfdefense organizations have been disarmed, the note said.

Special delivery letters will be left at residences or offices of addressees henceforth whether there Is any one present to receipt for them or not, Postmaster Robert E. Springsteen announces. In the past postoffice messengers, when unable to find any one at the home or 'office, have left notices that a special delivery letter is waiting for them at the postoffice. which necessitated the addressee calling for it. It was pointed out by the postmaster that the public should bear in mind the fact that the special delivery system is maintained for speed and not for safety and that since the custom of taking receipts has been eliminated It will be wise for citizens mailing valuable letters or packages special delivery to register and Insure them In addition.

Stored Foods At certain seasons of the year, nature mothers us in generous lavishness; at other seasons she treats us as outcasts. One great service rendered by Swift & Company to the consumer is in taking some of the surplus of nature’s plenty and storing it against the season of non-production. This is a service based upon sound common sense and meets a definite economic need. This enables you to obtain all the year round some foods which otherwise would be so abundant in certain months that the entire supply could not be used, and so scarce at other times that prices would be prohibitive. Swift & Company has equipped its plants and branch houses with refrigerating plants, and has a sufficient number of refrigerator cars to carry a supply of meat foods to its customers. Space in public cold storage warehouses also is used by us to carry perishables until they are needed. We store only enough meat, butter, poultry, eggs, and cheese to supply our customers during the period of scarcity and not to speculate on rising prices. Our storage profits during the last eight years have averaged about one cent a dozen on eggs, and less than a cent a pound on butter and poultry. Storage of food is a world necessity and we regard our part in this as an important factor in our service in supplying the nation with wholesome food. Swift & Company, U. S. A.
