MR.. HOOvER'S MESSAGE
TO LOUISIANA.

! Washington, d. c., Sept. 20.
The week of October 2l to 9
has been selected for a nation
wide campaign to complete the en-
rOllment of our forces in conserva
tion of our fosd supply.
The harvest is now in hand ant
we can measure the worlds re
sources. The available supplies
this harvest are less than las,
year. The demand upon us II
greater than last year, and from
the last harvest we exported more
than wecould really afford. We can
only meet the call upon Us next
year by savings and by substitu
ton of commodities which cannot
be transported.
The Allies are our first line of
defense. They must be fed, and
food will win the war. All Eu.
rope Is on rations or restricted
supplies. Only in our own coun.
try is each one permitted to judge
for himself the duty he owes his
country in food consumption, al
though the world depends upon
us to guard and provide it's food
supply.
This is duty of necessity, hu
manlty and honor.
AS free people we have elect
ed to discharge this duty, not un.
der autocratlc decree bur without
other restraint than the guidance
OF individual conscience. On the
success of this unprecedented ad
venture in democracy will largely
stake the issue of the war.
We are~ asking every house
holder, every hotel, restaurant,
and dealer in fOodstnffs in the ma
tlon, to become a member of the
Food Administration for Conser
walton, and to pledge themselves
10 follow, insofar as circumstances
permit, the suggestions that will
be offered from time to time, as to
measures of food savings.
For us there IS no threat of
privation. We wish only that
our people should eat plenty bu,
wisely, and without waste. Wis |
dom in eating Is to make possible
such adjustments III our food con.
shipping, and war ne.
;essities, as will allow us to fulfil
Dur duty to our Allies.
By elimination of waste, we
serve ourselves economically and
morally.
/, therefore, appeal to the
churches and che schools for their
assistance in this crusade, to all
he organizations for defense, 10
'al and national, to all the agen
lies, social, commercial aud civic,
hat they JOIN the administration
o this work for the fundamental
afety of the nation.

CUTTING CANE.


Several Of the cane planters OF
this parish organized their crews
Of cane cutters this week and sci
them to work cutting cane for tht
mills. The prolonged drought 10
the latter part OF the summer and
early fall has done much towards
shortening the tonnage OF the
cane crop. The frosty weather OF

turn Of higher mercnry readings
and sulnmer clothes-even with

THE vExEO QUESTION.

During the last half, century
several periodic attempts have
been made to rid this: city of it's
moral lepers, the denizens of the
red light district, but all such eff.
forts proved abortive and the dis
trict remains today with much the
same boundaries il had in- the be-
ginning, with this difference: The
ssisound Honse" Of long years ago

A STATEMENT TO WAR
MOTHERS.

\ Thousands of womeD,. the Wa
Mothers of the land who hav
given their sons to their country
are asking the privilege of maxim,
one more sacrifice.
These War Mothers seek the op
portuniIy of enrolling tbemseIve.
with their sons as part of th.
fighting forces of the nation.
They are asking what they car
do in order that they may be Ger.
tain hunger is not added to the
foes their sons must face.
The food problem that menaces
our Allies is likewise the food
problem that menaces the sons of
our War Mothers. That problem
is one that touches the honor, the
heart, and the patriotism of the
American people. The woman
who gives her son to fight has a
right to demand that he be fed.
She has a right to demand a place
in any movement designed to
guarantee the food supply of our
armed forces.
But the War Mother has more
than q right to seek service for
herself. She has a right to. plead
that the wOmanhood OF the nation
be joined in sisterhood pledged
to protect her boy with all the re.
sour ces of the home.
The War Mothers who have
volunteered for service stand for
the war creed of the kitchen, the
doctrine that it is patriotic duty
to conserve the food supply Deces-
sary for the maintenance of the
fighting forces of democracy.
The nation has asked sacI ifice
at the hands of the mothers She
IN her turn asks but a service.
She asks that each one in Lis own
home voluntarily, and as matter
of individual conscience, admins
ter the food supply at his disposal
as though he were the guardian
Of the total store.
America must have q food pro
gram if 1t is to play fitting part
IN the world war. Tins program,
to be effective, requires the people
in this country to conserve those
foed products that that our allies
and our own soldiers must have.
The War Mother has a right to
ask that every family make this
program a vital part of it's daily
life.
There must be more than war
In the hands we stretch
ACROSS the eea. The cause of de.
nocracy must be fed as well as
Irmed.
In behalf of its War Mothers
,ur Government and our Allies
IAN confidently appeal to the
American home for a policy Of
ood conservation that will render
certain funds contributed by
patriotic citizens will not 60 beg
,iDg in the markets OF. the world
or foodstuffs that do not exist.
Sign the pledge Gard and see
