READJUSTMENT ORDERS EFFECT ; nncnT onwmn

UllClll OIIVIHU Over Billion Dollars Saved by Cancellation and Readjustment, Baker Reports. i i i .ni.i WASHINGTON, Nov. 22. Savings through ..War Department readjustment orders. Including cancellation of contracts, are estimated, at $1,336,000.000 by Secretary Baker., Jn a letter read to th Senate today by Senator Martin of Virginia, chairman of the appropriations committee. ' "On contracts which have been let but up on which no work had as yet been done," Mr. Baker wrote, "cancellations aggregate a saving of $700,000.000.' "An order was made on Nov. 11, cutting out all overtime and Sunday work. The amount saved by this order aggregates about 12,900,000 a day. "In the Bureau of Aircraft Production orders have been telegraphed , stopping all production on a large number of items, including planes of various types, engines, parts and spe- , clal -instruments which aggregate the estimated saving of $225,000,000. "In addition to the foregoing, plans have been made to begin the demobilization of forces under arms in this country and to begin returning at once to the United States such portions of the armed froces abroad as are not needed for the purpose of occupying enemy territory. When it will be possible for us to return soldiers from overseas cannot be immediately determined. . Working With War Board. ' "In the termination of contracts for ' supplies and war material, the War Department is working in close harmony with the war industries board and the Department of Labor, In order that there may be the utmost freedom for the resumption of civil busi.ness and the most complete opportunity for labor released from war industries and military service to find suitable and profitable industrial and commercial employment. "I have no doubt that within a few days the figures above set forth will show substantial increases and the savings effected will mount' day by day. In general, it is my earnest desire - to restore the soldiers to their homes and their civil occupations and to cut down as speedily and completely as possible the extraordinary expenditures which the War Department was obliged to undertake for the prosecution of the war. ' "I bave not set up here the details of the contracts canceled because the list is long and the individual items are not of special significance." SUNDAY CLOSING ORDER REPEALED mum H. W. Gilbert, federal food administrator for Wayne county was in con-, ference yesterday with Dr. H. E. Barnard at Indianapolis and among other things the federal Sunday closing ruling was rescinded.' This insofar as the federal food administration is concerned. It, however, is a state law that all business must close on Sunday. The federal authorities hereafter have no Jurisdiction over the Sunday closing order.

LightUss Nights Are Discontinued by Garfield WASHINGTON, 1 Nov. 22. "Lightless nights," . made necessary to save fuel for war work will end tomorrow, except . in states where fuel administrators may decide to continue the regulations. This announcement was made Thursday night by Fuel Administrator Garfield. . Removal of other restrictions on the consumption of coal will follow. Dr. Garfield said, and voluntary conservation through requests made of the public will be substituted. The "lightless night" order, which first was issued last winter, recently was rescinded in a number of states. Its enforcement will now be at the discretion of state fuel administrators who have been Instructed to be guided by the fuel situation Jn their respective states.

such a will that they brought an answering cheer from the men on the distant ships of the -American squadron. . .

GERMANY CEASES

Continued From Page One. there was no sign to provoke suspicion. All of them had been swallowed up in the enveloping columns, the latter never for a minute relaxing their alert watch. Over the Germans circled a British dirigible which acted as eyes for the allied ships, which, although the fog had lifted, were still too distant for accurate observation. . When the leading German ship had reached the western end of the flanking columns, the allied ships put about in squadrons. Quickly reforming their lines, they proceeded to escort the enemy Intc the Firth of Forth. By noon, the last wisp of fog had disappeared and a splendid view of the vast array of war craft could be obtained. Holding steadily to its course, the great fleet reached May Island at two o'clock. The captive Germans were piloted to anchorage assigned to them and British ships from the southern column closed in as guards. The northern column steamed on to the regular anchorages higher up the Firth. Inspection parties from the grand fleet boarded the Germans to make sure that all conditions of the armistice were observed. The enemy vessels will be interned in Scapa Flow. Part of the crews will remain for maintenance and the remainder will be returned to Germany soon. Whether American ships have a further part to play In connection with the internment and guarding the high seas is a question which is being discussed by officers and men of the squadron. King George's visit to the American flagship New York yesterday was a notable occasion throughout. British destroyers were steaming out of the harbor to take up advanced positions to act as a screen for the grand fleet today and the portentiousness of their mission gave a note of solemnity to the gala scene on the New York. As soon as the royal party stepped aboard the Royal Ensign was hoisted to the masthead. King Visits U. S. Admiral. This was the first timu since the United States entered the war that any ceremonial punctilio has been observed. King George was touched by the sight of his standard snapping in the breeze above the Stars and Stripes, expressed his appreciation. King George, the prince of Wales, Admiral Beatty and other members of the visiting party m "were received by Admirals Rodman ' and Sims and other officers of the fleet. They made a quick tour back between long lines of marines standing stiffly at attention and sailors manning the rails. The party then went below to the admiral's cabin, where it visited for half an hour. The king appeared to have a fine time. Formalities were abandoned. Admirals Beatty, Sims and Rodman were in high spirits and their good natured bantering kept the whole party laughing. It was an interesting manifestation of the extremely cordial and intimate relations cementing Great Britain and Amerioa. During his call, King George voiced the brotherly feelings of the two navies. With a suggestion that arrangements might well be made for Joint maneuvers every year by the American and British fleets. His proposal was quickly and heartily seconded by the American officers. As the king entered the royal barge, the order came from the officer on the bridge to the tailors and marines, "three cheers for the king of England." Cheers were given with

SUBSTITUTES SALE CEIIIG ARRANGED

II. W. Gilbert, federal food administrator for Wayne county attended a conference held by Dr. H. E. Barnardr federal food administrator for Indiana, and it was made a matter of publicity that Mr. Irwin of the grain division of the federal food- administration, is endeavoring to arrange some way to dispose of the substitutes which were used and are now in the hands of those handling flour. 'These Substitutes will have to be sold in carload lots and It there is a grocer who has a' small amount it will be necessary for him to get in touch with other grocers and pool their amounts to make up car lots. In a short time a plan will be perfected and dealers in flour who have substitute on hand can get the necessary Information at the Wayne county federal food administrators office. ' In order to facilitato matters it would be well for the grocers and dealers in flonr and substitute to take an Inventory of their substitutes and get ready for the distribution if they care to do so. It was also announced at the conference for volunteer food workers at Indianapolis Thursday that it is no longer necessary for grocers to make a sugar report, but that he will have to devise some plan to keen a check on the sugar that he is selling to the consumer, from the fact that when the sugar certificates have been cashed and he runs out of sugar before the next certificates are sent him there will be no more sugar for him until it is time for the next allotment. Therefore it was given out at the conference that it would be necessary for the grocers to keep a strict ac

count of the sugar given out to the consumer.
