HOLLAND Is ANXIOUS.

Holland is facing an awful Crisis
Germany, in her desperation, seems
ready to trample rough-shod over
the small nation as she did over Bel
rium at the commencement OF the
present war. The Teutons d!sregarded
a treaty at that time, and are ready
70 commit other acts of cruelty or
Injustice under the preteNt OF MILL
tary necessity. Huge German forces
are already hard at work on the
Dutch frontier, and are constructing
defcnses as the difficulty over u
boats increases. The Netherlands
have good cause to fear invasion. as
there are food supplies in Holland
which are indispensable to the KAISER
if ne expects to carry on war much
longer. The effects of hunger among
his people are plainly visible. Chill
dyen are listless, the death rate is
high and all are sick of war.

AMERICAS BREAD RIOTS

While all realize we are living IN
perilous times and the constantly in
creasing cost Of the necessarles OIL
life are naturally bringing anxiety
we do not believe much of the dlsor-
der in some cities of the United
States is warranted. AS is always
the case during such connections, Dad
men and bad women mount issues
as hobbies in order to facilitate an
achistic principles which they can
mot propagate during tranquil Tunes.
1t may be safe to say that many VINO
crv "Give us bread" are not IN ac-
tual want, but take advantage Oh
existing conditions to bring on re-
volutions.
In our own city we are paying al
most double for many articles which
are actual necessities. Yet work IS
generally to be obtained, and there Is
no immediate cause of alarm Wnlle
all feel the pinch, there is nothing TO
bring on desperation. After all, these
critical times may prove blessing
in disguise, and cause US to be more
frugal in the future and not, as many
unfortunately do, abuse the gifts Oh
heaven.
It has been suggested not only by
the Gazette but by other papers tnat
there are many acres Of untitled land
in and around every city. There is
no good reason why the earth should
not be more generally cultivated.
Berlin is acquiring lesson America
NAV soon be forced to learn. There IS
hardly a home in Alexandria winch
has not enough back yard to gro"
certain actual necessities. Many po-
tatoes gould be raised IN unused
spaces in back and side lots
The Philadelphia Record in speak
ing of present conditions reiterates
what We all know when it says the
leaders of the so-called food riots
,ye Socialists, or members Of the l.
w w., in either case professional
ao;Sators, ready to seize upon any
thing as an excuse for attacking d
factory, or store, or non-s1rihels'
and tho food shortage can be easily
utilized for a demonstration, IN front
of a City Hall, or an attack upon a
fashionable hotel, These so-caileu
food riots have been stirred up lot
the purpose of creating disorder Ger
tainly by social agitators, anu not
improbably by international agltators
The exceptionally high prices OIL
food have, of course, caused much dis
tress to people of small earnings put
there is not enough of this distress 10
account for the rioting. That IS care
fullv worked up for the purpose Oh
increasing labor restlessness, anu
nossiblv for the purpose OF creating
embarrassment for the natlonai
Government. 1t must be remembered
that employment was never SO gen
eral as it is now and has been Tor
MANY months, and wages are mach
higher than ever, and for very large
mart Of the community these facts go
worry far IN mitigating the distress
due to the prices Of food.

Along with the other attractions
which it is said the city of Washing
ton will have to offer visitors March
4 will be strike of the hotel cooks.
Among the demands they propose to
make is for a ten-hour day with
fifteen per cent increase in wages and
extra pay for over time. The inau-
guration ought to furnish sufficient
amusement without the cooks going

WOOD, HAY, STUBBLE.

Gypsy Smith in his discourse at
the tabernacle in Washington last
night beat the pulpit with his fist,
leaned forward and said:
"You can't feed your soul on So
cial things, or any other things oil
this world. You wouldn't feed a horse
on a Webster's dictionary or the 23d
psalm"
The evangelist threw a solid shot
among the many who strangely sup
pose this or that society under the
auspices of the church will prove to
be the reservoirs with which to feed
the spiritual life. Such might be
likened to mock oranges and gourGs
when placed by the side OF cereals
which are indispensable to our ply
steal existence. Spiritual food is not
found in social organizations or any
other so-called bi-products of religion.
Christianity had it's birth amid frr-
gal surroundings. 1t, however, soon
lost it's first love, and as the CEN
turtles accumulated attempts were
made to accelerate the coming king
dom by architecture, which was later
followed by art. 1t seems that in the
twentieth century organization is sup
planting everything else, and some
good people believe social gatherings
of young and old under the auspices
IF this or that is the chief end of man.

ECONOMY DUTY IF
 AMERICA
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1

As
 LONDON. April 21.-The first and most important duty of the American people to their allies is to ecOnomize on foodstuffs. This is the appeal of Herbert C. Hoover chairman of the American commission for relief in Bel gium, and recently appointed head of the American food board
 If we do not do it." he declared to- day to the Associated Press, we stand d grave chance of losing the war, be- cause our allies cannot fight without food. Our enemies are calculating that America will fail in this and our allies will need to give in. America can upset these calculations"
 Mir. Hoover's observations were made after three weeks of consultation with members of the British, French and Italian cabinets He also investigated the food and shipping situation and plans for American cooperation. The net result he reached was that be- tween now and the next harvest a su- preme effort by the American people was needed
 'I feel it my duty to emphasize" MT. Hoover continued. that the food situ- atiOn is one of the utmost gravity, which, unless it is solved, may result in the collapse of everything we hold dear in civilization.
 "The total stock of food available today in the allied world is simply not sufficient to last until September, if America continues it's present rate of consumption We now are face to face with the result of last years poor har- vest. The diversion of man power from agriculture all over the world, the un- availing efforts of the European women. to plant available fields fully: the iso- lation of Russia, the sinking of food ships and many other causes.
 England, France and Italy are re- ducing consumption by drastic steps, but even with all this reduction they must have from us during the next three months more than twice as much food as we should have exported nor mally or that we can send if we con sume as usual
 "The only hope of providing the de- ficiency is by the elimination of waste and actual and vigorous self sacrifice on the part of the American people.
 The barest essentials the allies must have are, primarily, wheat and pork products; secondarily meat, corn and beans They need a minimum of 90, GOO GOO bushels of wheat from North America, more than twice today's ap- parent surplus on 9 normal export basis. This is no time to reOrganize the dietary of Europe. To carry the allies over until the next harvest we must reduce our wheat consumption 30 per cent This means that every man, woman and child must forego at least one loaf of wheat bread per week and eat something else.
 More than 70 per cent of American homes are places of thrift, economy and a clean plate. In the remaining 30 per cent no one can deny that there is profligate extravaganza and waste. Temperance in entertainment, food and drink is likely to become no longer

Your president in a most apt and vivid phrase, has proclaimed that the world must be made safe for de- mocracy. Democracies wherever they are to be found, and not least the de- mocracles of the British empire will hail the procurement as happy augury. That self-gOverning communi- ties are not to be treated as negligible simply because they are small: that the ruthless domination of one unscrupu- lous power imperil the future of ciVili- zation and the liberties of mankind are truths of political ethics which the bit ter experience of war is burning into the souls of all freedom loving peoples. That this great people should have thrown themselves whole -heartedly in to this mighty struggle, prepared for all the efforts and sacrifices that may be required to win success for this most righteous cause is an event at once so ! happy and so momentous that only the ! historian of the future will be able. as l believe, to measure its true propor- ! tions
