Admission Of DisIOyahy in Italian Ranks
is Matter Of Deep Concern TO
Allied Nations
By United Press.

BY United Press
London, Oct. D. The Italian situa-
tion dominates the whole war view
point. Engulfed by overwhelming
superior forces Of men and guns the
Italian armies have been thrown
back in utter rout The British press
is unanimous in it's declaration that
the allies must give aid.
The admission Of disloyalty IN thi
Italian ranks is more disquieting than
are the enormous losses sustained.
If the italian morale holds up Gen
eral Cadorna is expected to make
successful stand on the plains with
the allies help Italians are now
outnumbered four to one along their
entire line.

and are the very foundations upon
which our democracy rests. This is
the blood test, my friends, and it
viii prove once and for all whether
we are fit to govern ourselves or
whether the kaiser is right and we
are only human material to be used
for tho glory OF the state,
only Asks a Promise.
And what is the government ask
ing? Only promise, nothing more.
A promise that no ones viii check
you up on; a promise that is a con-
4Iact only between your honor and
almighty God, That promise Says
that you win do everything in year
power to conserve food and to elImi-
nate waste You are not asked to
starve yourself. You are asked only
to substitute those foods which we
have III abundance for those foods
which we need SO much for the 9th
err side. TO us a little less wheat
each day. why, do you know that
the average consumption Of wheat
per day for each Of US is five pounds
and that il we substitute corn or iye
or some other cereal for only one Of
those five pounds we will save each
week total of so thousand tons of
flour? So use more fish and fowl,
more eggs and vegetables in place Of
beer and pork 10 save on dairy and
animal fats and on sugar Do you
know that we face sugar famine
right now?
And all this only promise, only
a moral obligation
sign the Pledge.
You are wondering how we snail
obtain that promise Well, my
friends, we shall obtain it through
the organization Of over million pa
triotic men and women who right
now are ready to begin their work.
AT the head OF that organization rs
the president Under him is Mr.
Hoover your national food admins

Of this great campaign through
which it is the wish Of the govern
ment to enroll every man and wo-
man, every boy and girl as members
OF the food administration, pledged
to the support Of its program insofar
as their circumstances viii permit.
Apply that to money and the war
and you have the driving principle
back OF the Liberty loan campaign
in which the government asks US to
loan It every spare dollar that we
can
Our Problem
our problem in this war is to feed
and to finance the world, nothing
less, and that problem in final
analysis resolves itself into what we
do with the last crust Of bread and
the last dollar
We may have such bountiful har-
vests as never were, we may pile
war profits to the sky but if we
waste the last crust and hide away
the last dollar, the food drive and
the money drive in the end will fail
and we won't 60 over the top.
It's what we do all together in this
war that's going to count and wheth-
er its beef pork or wheat or money
is the last ounce, and the last dollar
multiplied by 100 million that's going
to win the war, and my friends il
the world is to be fit place 10 live
in, if we are to continue a free peo-
pie, then we must win the war.
No ssctarian Lines.
The time has come when we must
forget whether we are Jew Or Cen
tile, whether we are Baptist or Meth
odist, Roman Catholic or Christian
Scientist, Whether we are Daugh-
ters of the Revolution or working
women Whether we are republicans
or democrats We are one great
American family and our homes and
our firesides are in danger Don't
let us wait as they did in England
and in France for those differences
to be erased in blood and tears Let
US put our shoulders to the wheel
and all push together one family
hoo million strong.
The German government didn't
waste any time over its food prob
lem. 1t said to its people, this is
what you may have, this is how much
you may have of it and this is when
you may have it and then they en-
forced those DEGREES with the bay
onet at the back Of the neck
Government Can Force It.
And remember this my friends,
that our government has the right to
do the same. Do you think having
drafted our greatest treasure, our
boys, that it would hesitate to con-
script our money and our food? Well.
Woodrow Wilson and the great men
surrounding him have a greater faith,
a greater vision than that They are
ltryies an experiment that no other
government in the world would dare
to try and that no other people than
the American people would respond
Ito And ihat experiment. my friends,
will not only solve the food problem
but # will determine once and for
all whether we have within ourselves
