out an effort to get people to eat
less, but to substitute those foods OF
which the country has an abundance
for those that are urgently needed
by the peoples of the Allied coun-
tries in Europe and their armies and
ours
President Wilson, In a letter to the
Food Administrator, has said: "In
no other way can they american
women) so greatly assist as by en-
listing in the service of the Food Ad-
ministration and cheerfully accepting
it's direction and advice. By so do
ing, they will increase the surplus OF
food available for our own army and
for export to our Allies.
This is a duty Of necessity, hui
mainly and honor. AS free people
we have elected to discharge this
duty, not under autocratic decree,
but without other restraint than the
guidance of individual conscience.
Upon the success Of this unprece-
denied adventure in democracy will
largely stake the issue Of the war"
The problem of America, as the
Food Administrator sees it, is feed
our Allies this winter by sending
them as much food as we can of the
most concentrated nutritive value In
the least shipping space. These
foods are wheat, beef, pork, dairy
products and sugar. This is to be &C
told, but eating less of these and
more of other food Of which we have
an abundance, and by wasting less of
all foods.
These is a superabundance Of veg
etables, especially Of potatoes, but
they cannot be shipped to our AL
lies because they require from four
to ten times the tonnage of more con-
centrated foods, and the saving of
ocean tonnage is one of the vital
problems of the war. The Food Ad-
therefore, urges the lib
eral use of vegetable, and of fruit. |
poultry, fish and other sea foods, with |
a larger use of corn meal for the
purpose Of saving wheat. AS these
foods are healthful and relatively |
low in price, it points out, the Amer
lean people are not asked to endure
privation, but merely to change their
eating habits, and to avoid waste.

are in rags beyond description. and It
is impossible to provide them with
clothes. They are fortunate that the
school provides them with dinner,
even though it be only thin soup and
a piece of bread. For a great many
of them that is the only food they
get during the day. Often I have
seen the children drink the soup. put
the bread into their pockets to take
home for q brother or sister who has
not even so much food.
'"The condition of the Jewish exiles,
who have been driven by Djemal
Pasha out Of Jaffa and the neighbor-
ing districts, is very much worse
than that of other sections of the
populace. In spite Of the reports to
the contrary launched by the Turkish
authorities, none Of these thousands
Of hapless refugees has been allowed
to return to his home, and whatever
preparations have been made for
transporting, housing, feeding, edu-
eating, and giving employment to
them have had to be made by the
private charity of the local Jews and
their brethen in other countries.
There is much sickness, owing
chiefly to undertaking and bad san
itation; 80 percent. of the young girls,
for instance, In Upper Gallilee are
down fever. The number Of fugitives
in receipt of assistance is 5,058, of
whom 1000 are in Judea, in Lower
Galilee, 1924, and in Upper Galilee

and the coming of cold and rain their
sufferings will be much worse than
even now.
