Against Sending Army to Europe


A Statesman Washington dispatch
states that Senator Borah. replying
to parties who have telegraphed him
regarding his stand on the German
situation. Saturday sent the following
statement OF his position:
ut Is my purpose TO support the
government In any measure necessary
for maintenance OF its honor and the
protection OF lives OF our citizens.
But II the program includes anything
like loaning credit of this government
or opening the public treasury to any
European nation or sending our sol
diers to the trenches of the allies or
forming alliances with European
powers l shall not support that part
OF the program.
II want to protect American lives
and American rights wherever and
by whomever assailed. whether In
Mexico or in Europe. by one belliger.
ent or another. but / will support nc
alliance. and that. in my judgment
Is the thing for which a great many
people are driving rather than fol
protection for American citizens"

COUNTRY MUST PRODUCE VAST
FOOD SUPPLIES.
Nation Should Not Only Raise for It's
Own Needs but to Feed Peo-
pie OF European Allies.

Secretary Houston has again ap-
pealed to the country to make every
effort to raise adequate Todd crops
this year. not only for the United
States needs. but TO meet the re-
quirements of the entente
1.-THE importance to the nation of
generous food supply for the COM
ing year cannot be over-emphasized,
In view OF the economic problems
which may arise as result of the
entrance OF the United States into
the war" said the secretary. Every
effort should be made to produce
more crops than are needed for our
own requirements. Many millions
OF people across the seas, as we'll as
our own people. must rely In large
part upon the products OF our fields
and ranges. This situation will con-
tinue to exist. even though hostilities
should end Unexpectedly soon. since
European production cannot be re-
stored Immediately to its normal
basis.
Cannot Raise Too Much.
1T Is obvious that the greatest and
most important service that is re-
| quired of our agriculture under ex-
listing conditions is an enlarged pro-
duction of the staple food crops. Be-
cause OF the shortage OF such crops
practically throughout the world,
there is no risk in the near future of
excessive production such as some
times has resulted In unrenumera-
tive prices to producers. This is
particularly true OF the cereals and
OF peas. beans, cowpeas. soybeans
and buckwheat.
In view of the world scarcity OF
food. there is hardly possibility that
the production OF these crops by the
farms OF the United States can be too
great this year. and there is abundant
reason TO expect generous price re-
turns for all available surplus.
Must Plant the Limit.
hO h4Oot CAcNNifC oNcP thob ma
be taken to increase the production
OF these crops is to enlarge the acre
age devoted to them in the region:
where they are grown habitually
This expansion of acreage should be
to the limit permitted by available
good seed, labor and equipment. The
placing Of too great emphasis on pro
duction IN new regions is inadvis
able, since the Introduction into {
farm operation of crop not usual,
grown frequently involves practica
difficulties not easily foreseen no
quickly surmountable.

In their zeal to eradicate demon

gress before the House postoffice
committee on Senator Bankhead's
measure designed to bar from the
mails "any publication of any
kind" that contains "any adver-

laudatory reference to liquor does
not constitute an advertisement"

Roaring, red hot mustard plaster.
