is DEMOCRACY WORTH WHILE

! The half million volunteer mem
bers of the Food Pledge Enrolment
i organization who will during the
week of October % to November
visit every household in America
and endeavor to have every family
of the nation register for food con-
servation are as that half million
which will stand back of the Anne
rican army in Europe and see that
the soldiers rations reach them on
she line and in the trenches, Amer
lea must sent to Europe the
Food on which our allies subsist
while they fight with us the war for
democracy, or the war will be lost
We have plenty; they hover on the
brink Of starvation. Food will win
the war; the lack of it will lose the
war
We have plenty if we choose to
send it. But we can not send it I'M
less we take concerted action to ga
Their it and make it available. And
we con send only certain kinds o of
I1tN those that concentrate the
most most nutritive value into the
least shipping space. Wheat, beef,
pork, dairy products, sugar; these
we must send. Seventy per cent of
our people, Herbert Hoover says,
live on so economical a margin that
it is Impossible for them to save any
food in the country ordinary accep-
lance of the term. The other thir-
ty per cent of us are food MASTERS
to greater or less degree, and they
must eliminate that waste or be re-
ponsible for increasing the difficult
ty of the fight for freedom in the
world But all of US can help to
amass the store of food that must be
sent to our allies if their armies win.
We can do this by eating less of the
foods that we must ennd 70 Europe
and more Of those that we have in
abundance. We must substitute
other cereals for wheat: poultry and
fish for meat; vegetables oils SO far
IS possible for butter and lard: sv-
ruDs for sugar. and eat freely pota-
toes. fruits and fresh vegetables.
That is the gospel which the Food
Administration breaches to the ma
ton 1t is erdeavoring to persuade
American to do by democratic me-
thods what never before in history
has been done except by autocratic
methods. Food control by ukase,
by command from above, is COM
paratively simple matter Food con
troll from below, by the voluntary
decision of the individuals of the ma
ton. is a far more difficult accom-
plishment. When the United States
succeeds in doing this. we shall have
proved that the ideal on which our
Government is based is sound. If
we should prove that for such cri-
sis as the world now faces only the
methods of autocracy are effective
Democracy would be exposed as a
failure in the supreme test. Can
we prove that democracy is safe for
.ne world?
The half million Food Pledge
Campaigners who have volunteered
/ to gain the allegiance of the twen-
ty two million families of the nation
to this standard of American ideals
are worker, for world cause, and
every American man and woman
who perceives what lies behind the
simple pledge ''to carry out the d.
rections and advice Of the Food Ad-
minstration in my own home, in SO
far as my circumstances permit, !"
will be ready and eager to sign when
the Food Pledge solicitor offers the
pledge card.

PLAN NOT SOUND

ant-General Bridges, a member of the

and immeasurably retarded England's
efforts in the war He said the war
is no longer war of expeditions but
case of nations against nations.
