My Fellow Countrymen

MY Fellow COunITymen
The entrance of our own beloved country into the
grim and terrible for democracy and human
rights which has shaken the world creates SO many
problems of national life and action which call for
immediate consideration and settlement that hope
you will permit to address to you few words
of earnest counsel and appeal with regard to them.
These are the things must do, and do well,
besides fighting-the things without which mere
fighting would be frutless:
We must supply abundant food for ourselves and
for armies and our seamen not only, but also for
a large part of the nations with whom we have now
made common cause in whose support and by whose
sides we shall be fighting.
We must supply ships by the hundreds out of our
shpyards to carry to the other side OF the sea- sub
marines submarines, what will every day be
needed there, and abundant materials out of our
fields and mines and our factories with which
not only to cothe and equip our own forces on land
and sea- but also to clothe and support our people
for whom the gallant fellows under arms can
longer work. to help clohe and equip the armies with
which are cooperating in Europe and to keep
the looms and manufactures there IN material;
coal to keep the fires gong In ships at sea and In
the furnaces of hundreds of factories across the
steel out of which to make arms and ammunition
both here and there rails for WORKOUT railways
back of the fighting fronts locomotives and rolling
stock to take the place Of those every day going to
pieces, mules, horses cattle for labor and for mill
tary service; everything with which the people of
England and France and Italy and Russia have
usually supplied themselves but cannot now afford
the men, the materials or the machinery to make.
1t is evident to every thinking man that our indus
tries, the farms, in the shipyards in the mines,
in the factories, must be made more prolific and
efficient than and that they must be more
economically managed and better adapted to the
particular requirements of task than they have
been; and what want to say is that the men and
A. H. Al
energy to these things will be serving the country
and conducting the fight for peace and freedom
just as truly and just as effectively as the men
the battlefield in the trenches
The Dermott news., 1917-05-03

The supreme need of own nation and OF the
nations with which We cooperating is abun-
dance of supplies and especially of foodstuff The
Importance of an adequate food supply especially
for the present year, is superlative. Without abun
dant food alike for the armies and the peoples
at war, the whole great enterprise upon which
have embarked will break down and fail. The
worlds food reserves low. Not only during the
present emergency, but for some time after peace
shall have come both own people and large
proportion Of the people of Europe must rely upon
the harvests in America. Upon the farmers of this
county therefore, in large measure, rests the fate
of the and the fate of the nations
I call upon young men and old alike and upon the
able bodied boys of the land to accept and act upon
this duty-to turn in hosts to the farms and make
certain that pains and labor is lacking in this
great matter
l PARTICULARLY APPEAL TO THE FARM
Frs OF THE SOUTH TO PLANT ABUNDANT
FOODSTUFFS AS WELL AS COTTON THEY
CAN SHOW THEIR PATRIOTISM IN NO BETTER
OR MORE CONVINCING WAY THAN BY RE
SISTING THE GREAT TEMPTATION OF THE
PRESENT PRICE OF COTTON AND HELPING
HELPING UPON A GREAT SCALE, TO FEED
THE NATION AND THE PEOPLES EVERY
WHERE WHO ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIB
ERTIES AND FOR OUR OWN THE VARIETY
OF THEIR CROPS WILL BE THE VISIBLE
MEASURE OF THEIR COMPREHENSION OF
THEIR NATIONAL DUTY
Every who creates cultivates garden
helps and helps greatly to solve the problem OF the
feeding of the nations; and that every housewife
who practices strict economy puts herself in the
ranks Of those who serve the nation
1 hope that clergymen will not think the theme
of it an unworthy or inappropriate subject of com
ment and homily from their pulpits.

Who would be free himself must strike
The liberating blow;
This truth our fathers felt and rose
In might against their foe;
Por this their blood besprent the corn
And stained The winter snow.

Did Freedom s person spring,
Nor did the clouds let fall the stone
That shotted David 5 sling;
ITO Arms must ever III the ears
OF struggling races ring.

And likewise he, who once enslaved,
His freedom would maintain,
And see his country wear no yoke,
His children wear no chain,
Must have a purpose in his heart,
y vision in his brain;
Must have helmet for his head,
A halberd for his hand,
And be prepared to give or take
The order OF command:
The warders must not leave the walls
II Freedom s bastions stand
Each generation Freedom : creed
Must be with harshness taught,
And freeman warned that all they have
And are was dearly bought;
And oft must Lexington be reused
And Concord S fight be fought.

The straits to which the aristocracv
