FRANCE MUST BE FED OR FAIL

We have but to go to the core OF
the food problem in Europe to under
stand the soundness CT the Hoover
plans for conservation in American
homes, says the Spokesman Review.
Frances dire needs were frankly
revealed in the chamber of deputies
the other day. Authentic statements
nv the minister of agriculture and the
French food controller revealed a
number of ominous facts. When the
war broke 5000, 900 men, women and
children were tilling the soil. Three
millions of the %able-bodied agricul-
tural workers were called to the
armies, and the 100000 remaining
workers are unable to maintain eff
ficient production.
We glimpse the alarming decline in
agriculture from the figures given by
these officials. In 1913 France pro-
duced 1,25O,O 900 900 bushels of cereals,
potatoes and sugar beets. Since then
production has steadily declined and
this wears harvest is down to no.
OOO. 900 bushels. This years wheat
harvest is the scantiest France has
known in so years!
Against that dark picture the food
controller held out high hope of help
from the United States. Mr.. Hoover,
he said, was rousing the American
people, and France was depending on
100, OOO, 900 bushels of wheat from the
United States. England would lend
them some ships, and by putting
themselves on short rations the
French people would pull through.
But the expected 100, 100000 bushels
cannot be sent if the American peo-
pie go on eating wheat this year as
they consumed it last year. In that
event we shall have a surplus of only
100000 bushels to portion out to
France, England and Italy. France
alone requires a minimum of 100 ,0O0,-
900 bushels and needs 100000, 900
bushels.
But France and our other allies
need more than wheat. They need
every possible pound that we can save

100000 additional workers demanded
from a single little province are to

tary servitude that are worse than the
darkest phases of African slavery in
American history. They are put un-
der brutal, armed o%verseers, driven for

ual labor, fed on starvation diet and
lodged in concentration camps that
would be a disgrace to humane
farmers stock barns.
The term "laborers" as employed in
the German command for 4O, 900 addi-
tional workers means not only men.
The cruel Prussian dragnet draws in
girls and women, many of them of
gentle rearing. Even the children are
scourged to their daily tasks.
We think most of the horrors of
trench fighting; but Prussian terro-
ism has inflicted a worse fate on mil
lions upon millions of non-combatants
in northern France, in Belgium, in
Serbia, in Rumania, in Russia, in Po-
land and Armenia. Wherever the
black eagle flies the unhappy land is
scourged with death and d~esolation.
Women and children have persisted in
millions. 1t is the most monstrous
tragedy of the ages.

Germany is not broken.
She will not be starved into submission.
She will not dethr0ne the kaiser.
Germany has been a nation regimented for
thirty years.
Her entire resources and activities are de-
voted to the maintenance of her army.
Her power is vast.
To break it is a stupendous task.
France has commended gloriously for three
years and is practically at her maximum
strength.
Great Britain has confined the enemy to
the land for three years and made ~valor0us
combat there.
She is nearing the ~fullness of her power.
Russia's mighty strength of three years is
falling to decay.
Italy's splendid power has been weakened.
The United States entry into the war is
more than a grim adventure.
It enters a life and death struggle be-
tween two philosophers of government.
The institutions under which we live and
move and have our being are at stake.
These are facts stated in simple words.
They are the most important facts with
which we have ever been confronted.
Wishes, hopes and dreams will not avail.
Salvation of the institutions We cherish
depends upon acts.
The acts of individuals as much as the acts
of Government.
We must be awake and alert.
We must lend no ear to those who would
betray our country by staying the process of
the war.
We can only win by the will to win.
And the will to win means the will of ev-
erv individual whose heart is true to his
country.

TRAGEDY OF THE AGES

Another proof that Prussian ruth

francs on the province Of East Flan-
ders because it failed to place 100000
laborers at the disposal of the Ger
mans by November l..

Commissioner ]. J. Jordan stated
that contractors should make showingS

for penalties. and that the city

made to him why the penalties should
not be deducted. giving letters as evil

and that the engineer could then sub

was Mr.. Jordan's contention.

City Engineer Anders said only one
contractor has written to him asking
for extension OF time. as is required
by the terms OF the contract. and that
he cannot do other. than show the
exact delays as they are.
