 No step could do as much to in crease our food supply immediate ly," wrote MT. Vrooman, ''as to put the nation on a war bread basis"
 He pointed cut that while the present milling standard in this country converts only about 72 per cnet of the wheat berry into flour, England has adopted an S1 per cent standard, Italy S5 per cent, Swttz- erland 80 per cent and France " per cent, and all of the belligerents are making bread from wheat flour mixed with rye, barley, corn and potato flour.

 "The children of Belgium share in the martyrdom of their parents They are like the young boys and girls baptized in water and in blood, who stood with the early Christians in the arena, before the callcus eyes of Rome.
 They are feeble with priVation and sad with premature grief. The Hoover Club has begged the chtl- dren of the United States to keep alive the 1,5OO,OOO of the little unfortunates by giving them cur of milk or chocolate and a larded biscuit once g day.
 On Belgium's vast storehouses ot grain Germany fattened for year On Belgium's harvest, garnered, but net shared by Belgians, Germany feeds herself today. With the mon ey wrung from Belgian towns, Ger many paid, and pays her army of occupancy. With labor forced up on imported and enslaYed Belgiansi Germany fotifies herself against her enemies.
