FEED FAITHFUL FRANCE!

Our soldiers are pouring into France
by the tens of thousands. They have
carried with them rifles and ammuni-
ton and equipment and-food.
France can not feed the American
army. Everybody knows hat She is
in such desperate straits that not only
must we send shiploass of rations to
our boys but we must send other ship
loads to help keep up the wonderful
spirit of the French nation. Meatless
days in Louisiana mean happier days
in France, both for American fighters
and French soldiers and civilians. a
Fred E. Pitney, a writer in France,
shows why Louisiana should be willing
to make the sacrifice asked by the State
Council of Defense: ITO what ex-
tent the herds have disappeared is
shown by the cutting down of the meat
ration of the soldiers at the front. AT
the beginning of the war they were
allowed one pound of meat a day; 20
per cent has now been cut from that

There will be no strike in tho local

sent out from New York last week
that Business Manager E. J. Deering'

had asked permission to call a strike
here and at Chester. Il is said Dy
local labor leaders that the machin-

lnen will not violate their agreements

IL was not long ago that some OF

Yards we're on strike for couple Of
days but the matter was quickly ad-
insted and at both big shipyards
working conditions are said to be al
right
The local plants have Indirect goY-
ernment contracts for building ships
for the government and any strike
would seriously impair the govern
ment shipbuilding work. With anl

Fablous y hign prices in Europe and
America will extend TO lard, butter

OF this country's meat exports.

pleaded that an rich, we'll TO do mid

reduce their meat consumption and
leave more for the fighting men and

trails are being diverted to Germany,
and offered this as an added reason foI
