ASKS EMPLOYEES TO FARM
Twenty-Five Acres of Garden Plots Are
Ready Today for Employees of the
Nash Company to Put In Summer
Gardens-To Boost Athletics.

Nash employees are to be enlisted in
the nationwide fight against food short
age and high prices, if they take adj
vantage of the offer made them at noon
yesterday by G. w. Nash, president of
The Nash Motors Company A twenty
five acre plot of ground belonging to
The Nash Motors Company, will be
plowed and narrowed at the company IS
expense, then divided into garden plots
and apportioned free to each EN-
ploye who will agree to plant and care
for a garden this summer.
This offer was enthusiastically re
ceived by the three thousand employees
who heard Mr.. Nash S talk.
Mr. Nash called the meeting at ten
minutes before twelve yesterday so
as not to interfere with the employees
noon hour.
By ten O'Clock this morning the gar
den committee had received one humid
red and eighty eight applications for
garden plots. Mr.. Nash spoke as follows:
"Every one of you has read in the
daily papers the great need of this
country for more food stuff That
means bigger crops-more acres plant
ed. 1t means that every fence corner,
every tillable foot Of soil should be
plowed and planted this spring.
Heretofore, we have only had to
feed our hundred millions here atAhome.
But now it is up to us to supply to our
allies abroad food as WELL
"Every one Of us should have gar
den. And insofar as we are able, we
are going to make it possible for each
of you to have one. The Nash Motors
Company owns. twenty-five acre field
that should be planted this spring.
We will have this land plowed and har-
rowed at our own expense and to every
man d IAN who will agree to plant. and care
for a garden we will allot a plot of this
ground for that purpose.
cit is up to you gentlemen to de-
eide and now is the time to act. You
cannot wait until next fall.
GIVE have a mighty good athletic
park here at the factory and want
to tell you it is our wish to favor fac
tory athletics. These grounds are for
the use of Nash employees. IF you
want to organize a factory baseball
league you have my consent and
hearty support.
CT want to extend my personal re-
CARDS to each one of you. I wish it
were possible for me to shake hands
with every one here and call him by
his first name. But I have only been
here eight months and it takes time to
get personally acquainted with three
thousand people. 4..a
"But I want to tell you gentlemen
that consider you the most important
part of this institution. | may be
capable of directing business, but I'M
less we had men who were capable to
carry out those directions we would
not accomplish much. 1t is necessary
to have the cooperation of each one of
you if this business is to be successful
and I want every one of you, even to
the man who sweeps the floor and does
it well, to realize that he is an i'm
portant cog in this great big wheel and
is helping to make it a bigger wheel.
"We expect with the aid of you
gentlemen to make The Nash Motors
Company one of the biggest industries
in the United States.'

The allied ministers are extremely
uneasy over the situation. China, with
It's lack Of adequate communication and

IN Mongolia the German and Aus

German agents also have been able
to assist many German and Austrian
war prisoners to escape from Siberia
into Mongolia, and thence into other
parts of China,
Much Of the German propaganda has
been traced directly to the German
