A DOUBLE SIGNIFICANCE

a special investigation has been completed by the Penn
sylvania railroad as to the purchase of the first issue of Liberty
Loan bonds by its employees.
Two very significant facts are brought out in the investi-
gation-first, that the employees of the railroad were liberal
subscribers to the Liberty Loan bonds, there being among them
52,7S2 subscribers, with subscriptions aggregatng over $3,4W.-
900. The other significant fact was that 8,146 employees of for
eign birth were subscribers to the loan. Thirty-four per cent
of the n%ative-born employees subscribed to the bonds and 81 per
cent of the foreign-born employees subscribed.
The fact that the wOrkingmen of the country were liberal
supporters of the Liberty Loan is a fact of deep significance,
and the added fact that the foreign-born workmen were prac-
tically as strong in support of the loan as the native-born in
creases the significance.
The figures of the Pennsylvania railroad are given because
they are known, but there is abundance of reason to believe
that an investigation of other large employers of labor will
show a similar resultant the wOrkingmen of America,
born in this country or abroad, sympathize with the uses of the
Liberty Loan, appreciate the value of the bonds and the patri-
otto nature of an investment in them.

GERMAN CAMOUFLAGE

Germany may be breaking down, but stories ABOUT mu-
TIMES and social unrest must be taken with the proverbial
grain Of salt. Recent victories on land and sea over the Rus
siars in The Riga sector and on the Italian front more than Off
sci losses on the western front. While the British drive the
Germans back a mile or so on a six-mie front in Flanders the
Germans oyerrun hundreds of square miles on the coasts and
island of the Gulf of Riga and threaten the capital of the coun-
Try.
1t is evident that the kaiser is looking for advantages in
the east to counterbalance disasters in the west. 1t is useless
to try to help Russia if the Russians will not help themselves.
The provisional government has been as stupid as the depOsed
car in dealing with Finland and that Duchy is full of German
agents who are trying to induce Finland to declare her indie
pendence under the protection of Germany. More than a cen
fury ago Finland cast in her lot with Russia because she dis
liked Swedish rule, and she may change her allegiance again
if Germany shows ability to protect her.
These developments must encourage the German people to
hold out even if they realize that they have lost in the west.
The kaisers visit to Sofia and Constantinople was a spectacu-
lar display of the solidarity Of Mitteleuropa which may be more
apparent than real, but which must have impressed his people.
Even if the Germans are driven back to the Rhine, the territory
and population under the suzereinty of the German emperor
between the North Sea and the Bosphorus form a splendid en-
pire of greater extent than Bismarck dreamed of when CONSOLE
dating the German empire.
Germany cannot be allowed to sit astride Europe in the
way that the kaisers triumphant progress through Mittel-
europa indicates to be the present goal of his ambition. 1t
would reduce Russia to the status of a medieval dukedom and
threaten the world with a repetition of this war. Who knows
but those stories of mutinies and other disaffection in Germany
are spread to induce the United States to await events instead
of pressing on to Observation-Disclosures.

Is DEMOCRACY WORTH WHILE q?

The half million volunteer members of the Food Pledge En-
rollment organization who will during the week of Oct. 20 to
Nov. ! visit every household in America and endeavor to have
truly a supply division as that half million which will stand
back of the American army in Europe and see that the soldiers
rations reach them on the line and in the trenches. Ameri-
ca must send 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 starva-
ton. Food will win the war; the lack of it will lose the war.
We have plenty if we choose to send it. But we cannot
send it unless we take concerted action to gather it and make
it available. And we can send only certain kinds of food
those that concentrate the most nutrtive 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 ordinary acceptance of the term. The
other thirty per cent of us are food MASTERS to a greater or less
degree, and they must eliminate that waste or be responsible
for increasing the difficulty 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 and ours are to win.
We can do this by eating less Of the foods that we must
send to Europe and more of those that we have in abundance.
We must substitute other cereals for wheat; poultry and fish
for meat; vegetable oils so far as possible for butter and lard;
syrups for sugar, and eat freely potatoes, fruits and fresh vege-
tables.
The half million Food Pledge campaigners who have vol
unteered to gain the allegiance of the twenty-five million fam
lilies of the nation to this standard of American ideals are
workers for a world cause, and every Amrican man and woman
who perceives what lies behind the simple pledge "o carry out
the directions and advice of the food administration 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.
