PRESIDENT WILSON ISSUES
PATRIOTIC APPEAL FOR SAVING
IN BEHALF OF HUMANITY

if we are to maintain their constancy
in this struggle for the independence
of all nations, we must first maintain
their health and strength. The solu-
ton of our food problems, therefore,
is dependent upon the individual serv-
ice of every man, woman and child in
the United States. The great volun-
tary effort in this direction which has
been initiated and organized by the
food. administration under my direc-
tion offers an opportunity of service
in the war which is open to every In
dividual, and by which every. ipdivid
ual may serve both his OWL people
and the peoples of the world.
1--WE cannot accomplish our objects
in this great war without sacrifice and
devotion, and in no direction can that
sacrifice and devotion be shown more
than by each home and public eating
place in the country pledging it's sup
port to the food administration and
with its requests.
"WOODROW WILSON,"
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1917-10-29

President Wilson has issued the fol-
lowing plea for the saving of food in
all ways possible in the interest of the
great cause of human liberty:
Our country, however, is blessed
with an abundance of foodstuffs, and
if our people will economic in their
use of food, prov1dently confning
themselves to the quantities required
to maintain health and strength, they
will eliminate waste; and ii they will
use those commodities of which we
have surplus and thus free for ex-
port a larger proportion of those re-
quired by the world now dependent
upon us, we shall not only be able to
accomplish our obligations to them,
but we shall obtain and establish rea-
s0nable prices at home. To provide
an adequate supply of food both for
our own soldiers on the other side Of
the seas and for the civil populations
and the armies of the allies, is one of
our first and foremost obligations; for

numerically, Herbert Bigelow, paci-
fist leader and pastor of the Peoples
church here, was found at Lawrence
Kentucky, this morning. A band OF
men in 20 automobiles kidnapped Bige-
low last night and freed him after
dipping his head in crude petroleum.
1t is indicated that Bigelow was the
victim of an oath bound organization
that was sworn to wreak vengeance on
all opponents of the government and
war preparations. The members of
the gang wore white aprons resem-

ton days. The party is closely or
ganized and all members were enabled
to return home after furnishing Bige-
low without being apprehended.
Bigelow's condition is serious today.

Parcel post packages intended fol

just made by the postoffice depart
ment. The new rule takes effect No

mitting 20 pounds to be sent in one
package. The change is made neces-
sary by the fact that the French rail
ways refuse to carry packages weigh
ing more than seven pounds.
November 2, next Friday, the new
postage rates become effective. From
that time forth it will take three cents
to carry an ordinary letter, and two
cents to carry drop letter OF postal

letter or card it will be returned to
the sender, if he or she is known. If
the names of the sender is not known
letters will be forwarded and the post
age collected at the other end from the
person to whom the mail is addressed.
