principal interest at present is that

they support emphatically and
throw into high relief the sound

and in a wider sense than was orig
inally intended.
The most practical and intelligent
methods Of conserving our future
food supply and that OF our allies
and at the same time protecting our
own health and efficiency might be
roughly outlined: First, the eXclu-
sive use Of some other cereal than
wheat: for instance. cornmeal. rice.
oatmeal. barley meal. potatoes, sago
or tapiOca at one meal each day.
or the generous use of breads or
buildings or cakes made of some
of these grains other than wheat at
each one of the three meals. Dat
meal. buckwheat cakes, corncakes
OF rice cakes, for instance. for
breakfast. potatoes, rice in Oriental
style. or corn bread in liberal
amounts for dinner, and oat cake,
rye bread toast. rice griddle cakes
or fried potatoes for supper.
Wide experience has shown that
ii is not best TO take more than a
third or at the outside half. of our
bread ration in any other form than
that Of white bread or toast or bis
cult. This has just been tried out
again on a most extensive scale, in
Belgium. where the captive pOpula-
tons were fed, in the beginning
by the relief commission upon ar
almost whole wheat flour, from mo
tives Of economy. so that nothing
Of the precious wheat should be

trality. He also demanded that Congress
vest him with dictatoria1 powers, until the
regular session should begin In December.
Eleven Senators stood out against this, and
defeated it.
Congress expired by limitation Of law, and
the President was sworn in for the second
term on March 4th.
On March 18th, came the Russian revolu-
ton, and, for week after week, it seemed that
Russia was out of the war
Men were saying as much, everywhere!
With Russia out, Germany would win; and

What happened?
The special session Of Congress began, end
the President made his Var Speech, on
april End!
Between the negative attitude Of Armed
Neutrality -dated Feb 26, 1017-mld the ag-
gresslve attitude of a war to crush German
mllltarlsm and autocracy - dated April 2,
1917-nothing had happened, except that the
English French American Capitalists 2eeded

The armies OF Russia were inactive demon
allied and mutinous: the Capitalists who had
backed England to win, were horribly fright
ened and had to have q substitute for Russia.
lle Alluu1e ol NaTcn saw Russia paralYZed
and out: the End of April saw the United
States galvanized, from state OF armed
neutrality to a state of aggressive beliger-
ency-w1th scant 80 days between the two
attitudes.
In order to give semblance Of reason and
consistency to his tremendous somersault the
President had to rake up and blow new life
into everything that he overlooked when he
was making his efforts at peace without vic
tory and when he was declaring for position
of armed neutrality

know for certain what has been suspected for
two years, namely that Germany has been
getting American meats, ETC., In spite of the
English blockade.
The neutral countries of Northern Europe
bought the stuff from our dealers, and then
re-sold 1t to the Germans, at huge profit.
AS a counter stroke, Germany blockaded
England, in the effort to prevent her from
getting our guns, powder, foodstu1fs, cloth,
leather, copper, oil, steel products, automo-
blles, motor trucks, and so forth.
Germany said In substance, that her weapon
was the submarine boat, and that on account
Of its structure she could not give to each
blockade-runner the individual notice re-
qulred by international Law
In lieu Of this individual warning to each
runner Of the blockade, Germany published
general notice stating that on and after
February |, 1917, she would sink all blockade
runners in the blockaded zone.
Gentleman! Be clear-headed and see things
as they are: that is the quarrel with Ger
many, and not anything else
Consequently, the issue is naval: the legal
principle involved belongs to Maritime Law:
and no amount of land warfare, in France,
Belgium or Galicia, can settle that question
1t must either be fought out, on the ocean,
or adjudicated by the Hague Peace Tribunal,
Or adjusted by treaty between the nations.
AS long as the German U-Boats are I'M
conquered it is folly to waste our blood and
treasure on land campaigns.
And when our Navy, aiding those of
France, Italy, and England can abate the
U-Boat nuisance, there no longer remains a
cause Of 200T.
Your common sense tells you, that ma
tlonal danger, aehich re mast cross the ocean
IL
the creature OF Imagination, of excited fan
cles, of temporary Mysteries.
You know that the ocean is better protec-
ton to us, than any walls that ancient cities
used to raise. The Almighty built that pro-
lection for us, and it is eternal No repairs
have to be made it cannot be undermined:
cannon are unable to breach it earthquakes
cannot shake it down.
Why not stay on our side of this God
given protection!
Why surrender the vast advantage which
Nature gives us?
Why send armies, munitions, provisions,
nurses and doctors to the other side of the
ocean?
Why rush into all the disadvantages?
Why SURRENDER ALL TIE ADVANTAGES?
Blind, blind is the man who cannot see
that we are headed acr0ng-headed to the bot
tomless pit.
Why did we get into the War?
Because Russia had temporarily got out,
and the English American fnanciers realized
that their mountains of paper money, stocks,
bonds, &C., was~about to collapse
With Russia out, all this huge mass of pa
per would soon become Confederate money!
Hence, they pushed the United States into
the War, to bolster the securities in which
they had invested such colossal sums.

The dates tell the tale.

You will soon be receiving by mail sweet
little notes from the P. M. c., and the Sec
OF the Treas, and from the President of the
Railroad, telling you that you needn't buy
a Liberty Bond, unless you want to.
You wouldn't have known this, if you

Oh, what a dear thing, liberty is, to be

That's why we are going to cross an ocean

We want to give the Germans the liberty
to buy Liberty Bonds when they want 10,
just as we do.
In addition to another issue Of three thou

President says that Congress must appro-
pirate for his use another three billions.
