MEXICAN GOVERNMENT
BUILDING BLOCKHOUSES
FOR TRAIN PROTECTION
MEXICO CITY, Oct. 17. — Block
houses, constructed of reinforced con
crete and large enough to hold sixty
men, are the war department's latest
project for putting an end to bandit
attacks on trains. The plan now under
consideration is to build these minia
ture forts at points along the railways
commanding exposed portions of the
track and tunnels. The recent recru
desence of bandit attacks, especially
on the roads from the capital to Vera
CKruz and Tampico, has spurred the
government to action. One of the most
I recent feats of the bandits was to cut
the water, light and power supply of
the capital for nearly ten hours.

SUGAR RATION CARDS
MEET WITH APPROVAL
The sugar card ration plan is work
ing well in Southeastern and Western
Alaska. With but few exceptions the
system is meeting with approval and
Individual consumers are keeping well
within their monthly allowance of two
pounds per person, and doing it cheer
fully and willingly.
Now an dthen some one complains
about having to come down town to
get a card; that he or she cannot live
on two pounds per month; that they
think it strange the government does
not give them all the sugar they want.
Thank God that these unpatriotic In
dividuals are in the minority.
Sugar must go to the soldiers and
the allies and the people of the United
States must show the same spirit of
voluntary sacrifice which they dirt
played during the wheat saving cam
paign.
