Period of Sacrifice, He Says.

I'VE must enter a period of sacrifice
for our country and for democracy.
Many must go into battle. but many
can only remain at home. The worlds
food supply is short and many must
suffer. We have the major burden of
feeding the whole world Food must
be managed and transported in our
own country and to our allies in such
Ia way as to get the most out of it
Those who remain at home can also
help and can fight by helping the
fighter fight and can serve by saving.
since food will decide the war. each
American woman can do real ma
tional service by protecting the food
supply of the nation. Ninety per cent
of American food consumption passes
through the hands of our women. In
no other field do small things, when
plc count for so much. A single pound
of bread saved weekly for each person
will increase our export surplus of
wheat 100. 900, 900 bushels. and an av-
eTage saving of cents on each meal
every day for each person will save
to the nation, for war purposes, $4,000
600. 900 per annum.
THE proper assurance of the food to
our allies will not only encourage them,
but il will maintain them in war. With
out a larger margin from our abundant
food supply, only to be secured by in
diyidual effort and volunteer sacri-
fees. the war will be prolonged and
thousands of lives, not only of men,
but also of women and children, need
lessly lost The guiding hand of
women in the home can alone con-
troll in this matter.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-06-18
Not Alone a War Question.

Furthermore this is not alone war
question. The high prices which are
bearing so hard on the poor and the
more moderate wage earners in this
country are partially due to the
shortage of supplies in the worlds
market and the saving in consumption
and waste which can be made Will
lessen the prices to those of our own
people, which must be our first solicit
tude In all of the arrangements which
we plan to make during the forth
coming year for the supply of our al
lies we will bear the first regard to
our own people, that they shall have
plenty, provided that they eat wisely
and without waste.
''All effort at saving must be direct
ed toward the great national and IN
ternational situation. These efforts
must also be made in unison and by
all of us. Therefore, the ground work
Of direction must be national in char
acter, calculated not only to effect ma
tional economy, but also to serve the
war interests Of the country as
whole These directions will require
supplement, from time to time, OF
local character. and we propose in the
first instance to send out directions
to each member directly, and after leg
islation is completed and the food adj
ministration is erected. to cooperate
with the state governments by de-
centralizing administration as far as
possible into their hands through the
various food committees.
