SAVE WHEAT, MEAT,
FAT AND SUGAR
Conservation of Food Will
Save Thousands of Lives
and Win the War.

State Food Administrator Charles
Hebberd of Spokane, urges the tre-
mendous necessity of saving, by every
man, woman and child of wheat, meat,
fats and sugar.
I'VE have talked the saving of
wheat continuously, but somehow the
American people do lot seem to get
hold of the idea. l can make it clear
by few figures. The allies are short
in their wheat crop 525, 100000 bush
els. The crop of this country is not
which is 678,0OO,000 bushels. TIL
United States needs for it's own use
at the rate of former years, 1000, 600
bushels. This leaves a surplus of only
S8,000,0 600 to be shipped to meet the
great need of the allies.
IF one wheatless meal a day is OBJ
served, it will save enough to make
the amount which can be shipped 166,
100000 bushels, but this is not any
where near the demand. We will have
to make sacrifices if the soldiers in
the trenches do not become unfit
through reduced rations. If there is
not enou sh food for the soldiers of the
allies, we pay for it in the flesh and
blood of our own boys. The result of
more rationing is weakened soldiers
with a starved people behind them,
and there will be an increased call fol
soldiers Of this country to replace
them.
GIuttony and Heediessnes3.
"Snau our boys be sacrificed
through the gluttony, heedlessness and
inertia of the American people?"
Mr.. Hebberd said that the consum-
ers were asked to save on wheat, sug-
ar, fats and meats, the amount per
capita being fixed at l pound of hour,
2 ounces Of fats, ounces of sugar and
7 ounces of meat. The consumption
of sugar in France, he said, was q
pounds per capita, in England &c, and
in this country 80 pounds.
Herbert Hoover, federal food COM
missioner, emphasizes the Importance
of all following the plan of one wheat
less and two meatless meals a day.
The aim is to secure 22,000,000 fami-
lies pledged throughout the United
States to the Hoover program, during
the week of October 28-Nov. 8.

PRINCETON REVOLT

PRINCETON, y. j., Jan. Five promi-
nent sophomores have stirred the ordi-
nary Princeton campus life by starting
a protest against the upper class clubs,
In a signed letter to the Princetonidn.
the college daily, these sophomores have
explained their stand against the upper
class club system. The protesting sopho-
mores are Richard Cleveland son OF eN-
President Grover Cleveland: II. Strater
Of Louisville, David X. T.. Bruce OF
Baltimore. Joseph Schmalz OF Buffalo
and Samuel Lloyd OF New York city.
Making a club, the protest states, Is
usually considered the most important
event in college life. The success Of a
man Is Judged by the club he makes.
The effect Is that a man must repress his
individuality enough to conform to the
standards which upper class men may
determine. AS result. it is declared.
there is an artificial barrier between
upper and lower classes. Restriction OF
friendships is charged. owing to the
limitations Of the club upon personal
daily conduct with fellow Undergrad
yates.
Distinction among clubs is attacked
I'm that the club labels the success OF the
men. Furthermore the failure OF the
seventeen upper class clubs to include
all upper classmen leaves certain num-
ber to be condemned In the eyes Of their
fellows.
Another point Is the expense In the
maintenance of these clubs and the COM
petition in erecting'new and costly build
ings. Further. the claim is made that
these clubs create false standards for the
college men. all OF which operate against
the best interests OF the university.
President Hibben has made the follow
ing remark upon the letter: II com
mend the desire expressed by certain
sophomores to organise In one group the
members of their class who do not care

they cannot afford to do Co."

Regarding Germanys peace offer Mr..
Barnes said:
I'VE cannot make terms with a wild
beast, and the answer given by the
Allies is the only possible answer. We
all want peace. but the best way to at
tain it is to Danish peace from our minds
until we have attained the objects We
set out to secure in the war"
Lord Buckmaster. formerly Lord High
Chancellor, speaking at Keighley, said
that all peace proposals ought to be pub.
lished at the earliest possible moment.
None should be summarily rejected, but
each should receive full and carefully
considered answers. Neither for glory
nor for vengeance should this war be
prolonged single hour Every fair
means whereby a lasting and honora BILE
peace could be obtained should be well
coined. But. he added, no peace could
