London, Feb. 4.?William John MacCaw, Unionist member of the house of commons for West Down, was fined 4 00 pounds sterling and 35 pounds sterling costs today for food hoarding. Mr. MacCaw was tried in the Oxted, Surrey, police court. According to the attbrney for the food committee of the Godstone division of Surrey, this member of parliament had in his larder at Rocksnest 24 pounds of tapioca, 1[>4 pounds of rice, 53 pounds of seminola, 100 pounds of biscuits. 53 pounds of tea, 100 pounds of su? gar, 34 pounds of golden syrup and j 21 pounds of honey. Although It was not contended that people living in country houses should come to London daily for their supplies, this stock of goods was held to constitute a hoard. The case of Mr. MacCaw was one of several hundred pending, while many more have already been dispos? ed of, every class in the country be? ing involved. Last week Admiral Sir Richard Poore was fined 90 pounds sterling for having in his possession a quarter of a ton of food, while oth? ers who were fined included a rail? road worker, a wealthy widow and the proprietors of several hotels, the last being charged with exceeding the Official ration. As a general rule the local magis? trates inflict stiff fines but Baron Rhondda, the food controller, is dis? satisfied with this method of dealing with hoarding cases and besides con? fiscating the excess stores he has pressed the magistrates to in;lic? im? prisonment, upon the guilty in cases of systematic hoarding. ARREST ABOUT UNIFORMS. Enlisted Men Reprimanded for Wear? ing Leather laggings, Strictly Against Order. A number of soldiers were arrested by military authorities today for vio? lation of the order prohibiting non? commissioned officers and enlisted men from wearing leather puttees, and some officers were also severely I reprimanded for failure to wear the proper uniform. The punishment in these cases, it is understood, will only be in the nature of a timely warning, but dt is announced that the conse? quences of further violations will prove serious. A memorandum was issued Thursday from divisional headquarters at Camp Sevier instruct? ing all organization commanders tc take immediate steps to have all the officers and enlisted men placed in proper uniform. A memorandum from the inspector general of the army and letters from the adjutant general have called attention to the laxness in 4he observance of uniform regulations ? nd strict compliance with them is hereafter expected. Extreme varia? tion from regulation in hats, ha* cords, leggin8, officers' overcoats and raincoats, shoes, tnd the wearing of knitted articles supplied by the Red Cross or other organizations or per? sons have been noticed. Silk and mercerized hat cords will not be worn by enlisted men, although nearly ev? ery enlisted man owned such hat cords by personal purchases. Woolen helmets, mufflers and sweaters of other colors than olive drab are abso? lutely prohibited. The division head? quarters urged that widespread pub? licity be given this fact, as thousands of persons are now engaged probably in knitting sweaters, mufflers, etc., for the soldiers and it may serve to keep persons from making articles that cannot he worn by the recipients. Knitted helmets, mufflers and wrist? lets of olive drab color, may be worn when in the opinion of the immediate commanding officer concerned, clima? tic conditions and lack of other suffi? cient warm clothing make It neces? sary.?Greenville Piedmont, Jan. 28.
