FOOD WILL WIN OR LOSE
WAR, CITIZENS ARE TOLD
South Washington Association
Hears Plea From J. s. Statesmen
Of the Administration.

Declaring that food will win or lose
this war. ]. s. Statesmen OF the United
States Food Administration appealed
to tho members of the South Washing
ton Citizens Association to wage q
food conservation campaign in their
section. at . meeting in the Jefferson
School last night.
You hear some people say" said Mr..
Statesmen. "'Oh. I am only one little
atom in this country; what good will
my saving do?' I say 1t is the duty Of
every man. woman and child. regard
less Of race or color. to set aside per-
sonal aims and support the men who
have gone to the front to hsht our
battles.
do you realize that every one Of our
boys who has gone over there or sig
nified his intention OF going by getting
into a uniform has signed himself up
for death. if necessary? And what
Europe II we do not send food with
them? You all know that . man can't
do much of anything on an empty
stomach"
In an appeal to the women not to
hoard foodstuffs. the speaker contin-
ued:
These sporadic shortages of articles
is not due to lack OF production, but
to unequal distribution. Somebody Is
hiding sugar and salt, and in due time
we will get at them, and all the little
difficulties that are now cropping mp
will be smoothed out"
Mr.. Statesmen declared the authori-
ties also are planning to strike at the
dealers who take advantage OF short
ages in commodities TO boost prices.
The food official said he was inclined
to believe that in many cases Of price

Commenting on the Presidents proc
lamation excluding unnaturali1ed Ger
mans from Warrington, Statesmen said
he believed It should have been done
long ago.
Il believe" he went on, shat any
foreigner who comes to this country,
enjoys our schools, churches and the
opportunity to make money and does
not become a citizen should be de-
ported"

KIRK CHALLENGES
MAYOR ON ACTUAL
WARRENITE COST

William P. Kirk, Democratic may.
| orally candidate, in commenting or
! Mayor Clifford B. Wilson's answers tt
some of the formers questions, defie6
the mayor to come out and tell the
| public the real cost of warrenite at g
rally of the First and Second dis
! tricts at the Walnut club last night
Kinks speech in full follows:
Mayor Wilson, in reply to the first
| question, regarding the six cent troll
| ley fare, stated that he had appoint
| ed committee to study the question
from. the standpoint of local service
and possibly put into effect re-rout-
| ing of cars. He does not state that
| this committee is opposed to the in
crease of the trolley fare. He has
| been waiting six years to- study the
| congested traffic situation!
THE mayors reply to my second
! question is one of the most convinc-
ing arguments against his being re-
turned to office that he has made in
the present campaign. He says the
board of aldermen, controlled by the
Democrats forced Warrenite upon
him! We must assume this also fore
ed him to sign a waiver making COM
petition unnecessary The mayor for
gets his sworn oath Of office, and that
he could use the veto against such
coercion.
Mayor Wilson evidently forgets
that. he practically kicked the Paw
ing Commission out Of Office
they refused to use Warrenite. He
forgets the matter was taken from
the Paving Commission and placed in
the board of aldermen by his own po-
litical party, and because City En-
gineer Terry was also against War
renite.
Mayor Wilson does not tell the full
cost Of Warrenite. He mentions
$1.20 as the price. dare him ia
give the cost of the foundation this
city furnishes; the tons of trap rock
necessary; the gangs of street laborers
who must get the streets in shape to
lay Warrenite upon.
New Ravens price for its pavement
is 81 cents. for the same materials as
ours, including the cost of the foun-
dalton.
Mr.. Wilson states that Warrenfte is
the best patented pavement that can
be secured. Why is it then that the
Connecticut State Highway Depart
ment now ignores Warrenite, but uses
IIlC ScIHS lhoSOA Ac1 WI4S1A 40 a AAi4AtcA .
of stone, gravel and tar at a cost of
II cents?
He emphasizes the fact that War
renite is patented pavement. Is he
aware that New York state has pro-
hibited the use of patented pavements
on it's highways, and that all bids for
paving must be submitted in a COM
petftive manner.
He stated that he won't assess
property owners for this pavement. It
lis well known that we are paying
dearly for Warrenite through the
great increase in taxes.
