Extraordinary occasions demand

prepared to advocate prohibition of
the manufacture and sale of any alcO-

Such was the statement made by
Rt. Rev. Bishop A. c.. A. Hall in his
oath annual address before the annu-
al convention of the Episcopal Do
cese of Vermont held at Burlington
last week.
The Bishop prefaced his statement
by saying that it was well known that
he had always been a steady oppo-

local option.

Rnmor about New Law.

It has been rumored in the news
papers that Vermont has made a
new law which would seek to compel
all vehicles driven on the public high

for a few exceptions. If there is any
such law it is not observed to any ap-

Rochester, N. Y, June Is, 1917.
Editor Monitor:
After the war what? Most likely
a defensive alliance for all the Euro
pean states will be the outcome of
this last great war among them. A
certain section of these warning ma
tions, who trusted in the power of
might to conquer and rule all the
world, as well as the remaining ones
who believed only less in the power
of arms and ornaments, will thus be
led to see that the brotherhood of
man is the basic principle of all per-
manent peace.
Awful as the present experience of
Europe is, it has probably FASTENED
by hundreds of years the universal
acknowledgements and adoption of the
principle that right, not might is the
best law for the welfare of nations.
Then why prolong 1.-TWO and five-sixth
years carnage has been decisive of
nothing) an unnecessary and useless
conflict, that can only result in the
exhaustion of these self-same Powers
and the century-long misery of the
great masses of all these peoples? If
a new Hague Conference were to sit
continuously until the peoples of
these countries compelled their rulers
to submit to their decisions, peace
might come sooner than anyone could
imagine. What greater role could
America have than to be the first to
take this decisive step, and work for
it necessarily until it's fulfillment
came?
Yours very truly,

Herbert c. Hoover, food admins
traitor, told members of the senate
committee on agriculture that this
country either will have to safeguard
its food supply or yield to the Kaiser.
Present, prices he said, represent
fictitious values, and food spectators
are taking $5O,000,O00 a month in
unjust profits from the producers and
consumers. AS a result, food costs
more in the United States than it
does in Europe.
''With reasonable manufacturers
and distributors profit the price of
flour should not be over So a barrel, ("
said Mr.. Hoover. 'FYet it averages
$14.
''The real question for us to con-
slider is whether the shortage will
continue next year, and what will be
the needs of the Allies and America.
The Allies will require a larger
amount of cereals next year than
ever before.
"Crop failures in the Argentine
give no hope of relief from there be-
fore next spring. We should be able
to supply so per cent of the foodstuffs
required by the Allies. The other 40
per cent must be made up by further
denial on their part and saving on
ours.
Without an adequate supply of
food, no European population will
continue to fight, and we shall find
ourselves alone against Germany
The Russian revolution was a food
riot, and that ally is temporarily par
alyzed."

Here is what we have been giving
the Belgians to live on:
Flour 10 ounces, or bread, Il ounc
es.
Rice, IL ounces.
Dried peas or beans, 2-3 ounce.
Sugar, .1-3 ounce.
Bacon or lard, l ounce.
Salt and coffee, mostly chickory),
amounting to another ounce.
This is a days food for one person.
1t is all some Belgians get, except the
little garden stuff that they can raise
in the little land that is left them.
This ration costs seven cents day.
Families have been living on it for
nearly three years.
Meantime, it has cost the people of
these United States, to supply this
food just three-tenths of one per cent
of the national liquor bill during the
same period. Three cents spent on
Belgium for each ten dollars spent on
bOOzel This is the proportion In
which most of US give to charity and
missions as compared with our selfish
desires.

IN a commencement address at Nor

Doesn't it make your blood boil
just bit for the government to de-
mand such rigid food conservation
and preservation "clean" plate,
and all that of we people who live
from hand to mouth anyway and take
no steps itself to stop the waste of
millions of bushels of grains which
are made into alcoholic beverages
which do no one any good. Then too,
100000 acres of land under cultiva-
ton for tobacco would raise no mean
amount of useful food Millions of
dollars are spent for the weed which
is either burned up or chewed up and
spit out. This waste alone would
supply the necessary equipment for
tens of thousands of soldiers, and the
energy used in chewing, striking
matches, drawing in and putting out
the smoke would win many a battle.
This same saving might be carried
down through the rest of the useless
and wasteful habits of America with
out harm, perhaps. Think of the
chewing gum, soda fountain, gasoline
and starched-collar superfuities of
mankind

these stirring times only as we strive
to weave the spirit which they show
on the battlefield into the lives that
we live at home, and he who expects
all the sacrifices to be made by the
men in khaki is not a patriot, but a
low-dOwn traitor with whom many a
murderer might refuse to associate.
