NEW YORK, June 11.—The amount
of materials annually used in the
United Kingdom of Great Britain for
the manufacture of alcoholic bever
ages has been reduced from 1,856,000
tons before the beginning of the war
to 512.000 tons at present, according
to a statement issued here by the
British Pictorial Service.
All the materials now being used for
this purpose, it is stated, are utilized
in brewing beer. “During the past
year,” the memorandum says, “no
manufacture of spirits for human con
sumption has been permitted, and no
further manufacture is at present con
templated.”
It is pointed out that about one
third of the materials used are not
of a kind that could be used as a
liuman food, and that about one-quar
ter to one-third of the weight of the
original materials is recovered in the
form of brewers’ and distillers’ grains,
malt combings for cattle food, and in
the form Of yeast for preparing hu
man food.
“No unmalted barley iB now in the
hands of the brewers or malsters,”
say& the statement. "Tbe whole of
Che existing stocks of unmalted grain
were requisitioned for breadstuffs on
February 23 last.”
Rations compulsorily Imposed in the
United Kingdom are enumerated as
follows:
“Meat, including chicken, all kinds
of game, etc., not exceeding one and
one-fourth pounds per week. There
will be supplementary rations for
those engaged in hard labor.
“Butter and margarine, one-fourth
pound of either, not both, per week.
“Sugar, half pound per week.
"There are many other restrictions,
such as the restrictions of wheat in
bread, df feeding cereals to livestock,
in the uses of milk, etc:**
WHITE MAN IS
CHIEF Of SIOUX
INDIAN TRIBE
MANDAN, N. D„ June 11.—With
the passing of Chief John Grass of
the Sioux tribe of Indians, who re
cently died at Fort Yates, the head
quarters of the Standing Rock agency,
his -mantle falls upon the shoulders
of the only white man ever adopted
into the tribe. Thus Captain A. B.
Welch of Mandan, adopted son of (he
old chieftain, became, according to
ancient customs of the Sioux, the
chief of the tribe.
The new Sioux chief, whose Indian
•name Is Mato-Watakpa, is With the
United States infantry in France, and
is the aide of Major General Hunter
Liggett. A<grandson of John Grass,
Albert Grass, is serving with the
same division.
Although there were formerly four
chieftains of the Sioux, only one line
remains, and, the old chief’s sons all
being dead, Captain Welch, by reason
of being the adopted son, takes prece
dence over a grandson In the direct
line.
The name Mato-Watakpa Is the
Sioux war name of the old chief, and
means “Charging Bear.” When he
was adopted Captain Welch chose this
name as the one by which he would
be known among the Indians.
Although the chief of today has not
the same powers of the chief of years
gone by, the title stlil gives him the
respect of the Indians, and they rec
ognize him as their leader. A chief
still represents his tribe in all the
disputes or conferences with the gov
ernment.
Captain Welch for many years has
been a student of the Indian customs,!
and formed many friendships with
members of the Sioux tribe. In 1913.
because of a mutual regard that had
grown up between the captain and the
chief, John Grass, the latter asked the
captain if he would be willing to be
adopted as his son. The captain con-1
sented and. conforming to the ancient
ceremonies of the Sioux, was taken
into the tribe by a service held at
Fort Yates, the old trading center.
The service began at dawn and lasted
until sundown.
The body of the old chief has been
laid in the cemetery at Fort Yates,1
and the Sioux now look for the return
of their “paleface chief” from the
great war to assume control of their
affairs and act as their spokesman in
all matters in which the tribe is in
volved. -
