8. United States Marshall John D. Lynn, of Rochester will not be troubled much in taking the census of German aliens In Wayne county. Contrary to the general belief, the number of German aliens In the county Is less than 100 and they are widely scattered In the fifteen towns. Lyons perhaps has more than any other Wayne town.

It la not planned to enumerate the women. The military census taken by the state under direction of Ward K. Angevlne, military enrollment officer, listed all aliens between the ages of IS and 60 years. There are In the county about as many as Germans. In the Lake Shore towne Hollanders outnumber all nationalities, but In Clyde there Is a strange mixture of Spaniard.

Russians, Italians, Germans, Austrlans and even Portuguese who are employed on Barge canal work. Postmaster will aid the marshal In getting nhe records of German aliens, their finger prints and photographs. The census will not be taken until February and after the day of registration the alien enemy will 4e required to report regularly to a designated officer In the town. Xo enemy will be allowed to enter prescribed districts and a permit to travel must be procured. SEE END OF DRAFT WORK Expect All Questionnaires Returned Within Ten Days.

Palmyra, Jan. 8. -Volunteers who have given much time and labor in aiding the filling out of questionnaires, so that drafted men may be listed and complete Information filed before February 15th, are De-ginning to 6ee the end of their work. It Is understood that the last of the blanks will be mailed this week so that all replies may be In within ten days. After the returns have been made to the draft board they will be sorted and tiie drafted men placed In one of Ave classes.

It is probable that a smaller percentage of men will completely escape the present draft. 1- MUST USE COAL WISELY Canandaigua Coal Shortage Will Pass Safely if People Do So. Canandaigua, Jan. 8. Because of the deep swaths cut into the coal bins by the recent long continued cold snap, there now exists In this city a coal shortage.

It ti not expected to cause undue worry, for there are several cars of coal now on their way to Canandaigua and with the parceling of the fuel out in small quantities, which Is now being done by the dealers, there will be enough to go around until more comes. If the coal shortage should become acute with no coal on band in the coal yards to supply the strictly necessary needs of people who are coalless. County Fuel Commissioner George W. Hamlin will resort to the expedient of taking coal from the bunkers of those who put In a full supply last summer and will transfer It to the needy. Such drastic action Is not expectted to be necessary, however.

If everybody will use proper judgment in burning and -procuring coal. Red Cross Campaign Begins. Phelps, Jan. 8. A campaign to secure monthly pledges for the support of the local branch of the Red Cross for 1918 was begun to-day.

The Public Service Commission, Second District, through Chairman Van Santvoord, has requested all electric and gas corporations to cooperate in fuel conservation.

The State Commission, at the request of the Fuel Administration, has given careful consideration tQ the problem of fuel saving as it relates to public utility service. commission presents these suggestions to all consumers of electricity and gas: How to Use Gas. 0 Do not use open-flame lights. Mantle burners will give the same amount of light with 60 per cent, less gas and (including cost of mantles) will cost less. ou can combine patriotism and personal profit by putting mantles on every light which is used to any Turn off burners when not actually needed.

The opportunity for saving is greatest In the use of gas stoves and water heaters. Use no more heat than necessary. Remember that water can-Jiot be raised above the boiling point no matter how hot the fire. Potatoes will cook just as fast in water which is barely boiling as in water which is boiling fiercely. If the time each, burner is used can be reduced a few minutes each meal, it will easily result in a saving of 30 per and if the ratio of burning is also reduced, ertill greater economy can be effected.

Have devices properly adjusted. Burners should be clean and adjusted to use the proper amount of air. If you are in doubt as to the adjustment get someone who knows to look them over. Economize Electricity. Do not use carbon lights.

Mazda lamps will give the same light with one- third the current. You cannot afford to use carbon lamps, even if they are given to you, unless for some location where the light is very little used. Turn off lights when not actually needed. Use other devices with judgment and economy. Help save electricity everywhere.

Cooperate in every movement for cutting down its use in nonessentials. Every kilowatt-hour which you can save can be used in some factory which would otherwise have to burn coal or shut down. It is better, that we should do without display signs, ornamental lighting and similar things for a time than' that the output of clothing, equipment and munitions for our forces and necessities for our homes should be restricted.

Bi-nesia Stops Stomach Trouble Or Money Back INSTANT RELIEF GUARANTEED Recently a writer on the treatment of stom-Jcn troubles, who has claimed that practically all stomach trouble is due to acidity, decided to put his theory to the test.

Everv offerer from stomach trouble was told to take a teaspoon ful of pure Bi-nesia or 2 or 8 of the 5 grain tablets in a little water immediately after eating or whenever pain aa felt. The test completely vindicated bis theory; for immediate relief was indicated in nearly every one of the first hun-k Torts received, showing conclusively that the trouble had been due to stomach acid which, as is well known, is instantly itralized by Biniesia. Since making well known manufacturing cnemlsta who have specialized in preparing Pure Bi-nesia exclusively for stomach hare arranged to place in everv package of genuine Bi-nesia either tablet or powder form a binding guarantee con-. satisfaction or money back, proof positive of their belief that nearly every recalled dyspeptic Is reallv suffering "om acidity and their confidence that gen-.

HOUSING PROGRAM OBSTACLE Shipyard Workers Unable to Obtain Homes No Limit to Number of Ships if Nation Sets Itself Really to Task, Ferguson Says Washington, Jan. 8 American's probable output of merchant ships in 191S was put at three million tons to-day by Homer L. Ferguson, president and general manager of the Newport News Shipbuilding Company, testifying at the Senate shipbuilding inquiry. Estimates frequently made of from five to eight million tons, he declared, were misleading to the public and should not be permitted to go unchallenged. The greatest obstacle now in the way of rapid construction, Mr.

-Ferguson, said, is pour housing facilities for shipyard workers. His story of housing conditions at Newport News so stirred the committee that a sub-committee compris ing Chairman Fletcher and Senator Harding was appointed to confer to-morrow with the proper government officials with a view to obtaining immediate relief there and elsewhere. The testimony of Mr. Ferguson, for seventeen years a naval constructor, made ayisible impression on the committee anFhe was kept on the stand most ofthe day. He did not hesitate to criticize the Shipping Board and the Emergency Fleet Corporation and held them to blame in large measure for the slow development of the government's program.

Blames Shipping Board. "The housing problem," Mr. Ferguson declared, "is one of the most vital facing the government in the conduct of the war. You cannot get the ships unless houses are provided for workmen. We want to add five thousand men to our force and there is nowhere in Newport News for them to live.

I understand that conditions elsewhere are equally as bad. "There is no limit to the amount of ships this country can build if It really sets itself to the task." The shipyards already built and those building can turn out five million tons of ships annually under proper conditions and the country could, if put to it, add still other yards and produce ten million tons a year. But it cannot be done without man power and man power cannot be obtained unless housing is provided. Workers Need Houses. "It Is just as necessary for the government to build houses for shipyard workers as it is for soldiers.

It must do it if it gets ships. If (I had the power I would commandeer houses and I think the government should do this. There is talk of working men two and three shifts. In our yard we have not enough men to work one shift and in one house I know of eighteen persons who are living in five rooms. We have not the money to build houses and it is the duty of the government to put them "up.

We are ready to furnish the land." Declaring that 3,000,000 tons is the probable maximum production this year Mr. Ferguson said that Lloyd's Special report estimates the steel output at only 2,500,000 tons. Although he did not condemn the wooden ship program, Mr. Ferguson said that he doubted if the vessels after they were built would be fit for trans-Atlantic service. They could be used to great advantage, he said, on coastwise runs.

Members of the committee were inter ested to know what had caused the de lay in the government's providing hous. ing faciiities for shipyards, and Mr. Ferguson replied that he thought it was due to a lack of co-ordination by the War and Navy Departments, the Shipping Board and the Council of National Defense. In Newport News, he said, the growth of the military establishment had absorbed all available housing. toncentration of shipyards in the Phil adelphia district was criticized by Mr.

Ferguson as likely to increase housing difficulties and to add to railroad conges tion. The industry, he said, should have been scattered more along the coasts. Shipbuilding' in established yards was hampered instead of erpedited, Mr. Fer guson said, when the fleet corporation commandeered construction. Until December, he declared, the corporation was unwilling to' pay additional costs for speeding up operations, although the private owners of ships under con struction always was delayed, Mr.

Fer guson said, because the corporation was too ambitious at the start. Changes in specifications, caused, delays, he said, when if the corporation had started with a few ships and developed the type it wanted few vessels would have had to be changed. Practical Builder Heeded. "Would the program in your opinion have moved any faster if a practical shipbuilder in the first place had been put in as general manager of the fleet corporation Senator Martin said. "Yes," Mr.

Ferguson rpplied. "So far as I know this is the firnt time since the program was put under way that a practical shipbuilder ever was asked officially for his advice or suggestions as to shipbuilding." Senator Martin was aroused over the housing problem. "If housing is needed that badly," said he. "the government can get the money within forty -eight hwirs'for the purpose. It can get it before you leave the city." Accused Dairymen to Plead.
