PUBLIC GATHER
INGS MAY SAVE
WHEAT BREAD

The New Mexico Council of De-
Tense makes the following statement
with reference to the saving that
NAV be effected in foods:
1--WE desire to urge all associa-
tons %partaking of meals at business
gatherings to specify to the hotels
or clubs where such meals are serv-
ed, that the luncheons or dinners
conform to the suggestions of the
food administration.
Save The Wheat Bread
1--WE suggest that no white bread
or meat be used and that a minimum
of sugar and fats be served. In
place of white bread some substitute
bread may be used, such as corn,
rye or whole wheat breads, or any
other combination Of flours that will
save white flour. Poultry, game and
fish may be substituted for meats
that are being shipped abroad. The
hotels, clubs and restaurants will
gladly cooperate with you in this
matter, The hotels in many cities
have already worked out menus that
conform to Federal suggestions.
Substitutes Are Good
at will surprise many persons to
learn what splendid meals may be
served from substitutes which are
available for the staples SO much
needed to supply our allies abroad.
The United States is at war: eat
ing as usual is unpatriotic."

From lnflammatory School
Enter, through the mails, one A.
Turner, of the Rand School, 14O East
Nineteenth Street, New York. The
Rand School is an institution of ad-
vanced and highly inflammatory
thought, founded by a lady much en-
numbered with riches. A. Turner
evidently is an old friend of Mrs
Johns. The call each other Com
rades." Here is a part of his let
ter, too long to be printed in full:
Rand School, $40 East Nineteenth
Street, New York.
Dear Peggy Just a line to
let you know that ! noticed the
announcement of your arrest in
the New York press this evening
1t did not altogether take me by
surprise, knowing you as | do.
You are capable of almost any
thing, even of being arrested.
But, my dear girl, it is such a
simple matter to get arrested at
the present time. Almost any one
can do some silly thing to get
in jail. Where it requires the
brains is when you can do some
thing to get away with it.
Blow Up White House
"Of course, | do not know the
nature. of your crime, but | am
pretty well certain that whatever
you were doing in Washington
would have no great effect upon
the capitalist system. nothing to
do with the political game is 60
ing to startlc the representatives
of law and order, which in it
self is an effect of the existing
political, or capitalistic. state of
society. My dear girl, how often
have I pointed out to you the
fallacy of political action; it is
a game which the leisure class
dabbles with, and as for obtain
ing any form of freedom-well,
you might as well try and stop
the fish from swimming. My
dear child, why kid yourself by
doing such futile work? There
are so many sensible things you
can get into prison for-for in
stance, if you attempted to blow
up the White House, instead of
trying to make room for more
nuts, or Inmates, as they are
called in England, I would say
go ahead.
Demands Berkman's Release
"If you are keen upon carry
ing some banner why did you
not come to the office and get
our banner, which reads: we
Demand the Release of A. Berk-

Come the Ides OF November and
more pickets to the gates of the
White House and the arrest Of those
same pickets. Mrs. Johns and Miss
Burns were among the prisoners.
They were sentenced to Occoquan,
for varying terms, a week ago to-
day. Both the young women imme-
diately began hunger strikes. Mrs.
Johns evidently was getting in a bad
way sooner than she expected, for
she sent a note to Miss Burns to
the effect that total abstinence from
food might be heroic and a good
thing for woman suffrage, but it
wasn't comfortable and she wanted
to quit. As soon as the ~workhouse
facilities would permit, Miss Burns
replied. eXhorting Mrs. Johns to
"hold fast" Both notes were.found
on Mrs. Johns's person by a female
guard.
Fighting For Pacifists
Lucy Burns note to Peggy Johns
contains this very interesting para
graph:
"About your work. the woman's
party will see that every one is
fed I'D and rested, after you get
out, till you are perfectly strong,
Hundreds of people, not alone
in the woman's party, but in the
whole labor movement, and in
the progressive and pacifist
groups, will look after you, for
you are fighting for all Of them"

AS To Turner's Record
At 90 Second Avenue, which is a
meeting place of East Side pacifists,
Archibald Turner is known AS a ON
scientious obiector and i~ndividualist.
He hasn't been seen thcreabout for
a month or so, but those who knew
him said he opposed the war be-
cause he disbclicved in killing a man
even in battle and because he saw
no way in which the w~orkingman
would benefit from the war, no mat
ter which side wins. As an ndivi-
dualist, Turner was described as an
Anarchist. Other recollect;ons Of 90
Second Avenue REGARDING Turner are
that he seldom wore a hat on the
street, by occupation seemed to be
a writer or poet Of some kind, and
though medium-sized, had a ply
sique that would enable him to put
up a very good fight if he weren't
a pacifist.

Mr.. G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Strive are enclosing a tes-

says is the truth.
