RUBBING IT IN ON THE EAST.
('NeW York Post.)

HOooINS " IN On THE EAST.
49, (New York Post.)
Western newspapers have been
poking a good deal of fun at the east
on tine score of the figures of volun.
teering for the army and navy. In
that matter, we fasteners must hon
estly admit that the joke is on us.
The west, in proportion to population,
has furnished many more recruits
than has this part of the country.
But it is not only fun that the press
of the middle west is poking at the
east. William Allen White jests at
us, but others put note of indigna-
tion into their comments. For exam
pie, the Omaha World Herald of May.
5 lad an article, under the suggestive
caption, Headline Patriotism" ask,
ing what is the matter with the
North Atlantic seaboard states?" 1t
referred to the "lusty clamor for war"
which the east had set up for nearly
three years; and then it pointed
scornfully at the figures of the east
ern recruiting offices. And it added:
THE west made no effort to goad
the government into war. Its temper
was pacific even under enormous
provocation. But now that the war is
upon us, the west is giving its sons
to their country's cause, while the
east is gnawing bloody bones at ban
quets, and in newspaper Offices, and
sending swarms Of lobbyists to Wash
fugton to protest against taxation"
This may not be very pretty or
brotherly, but 1t must be conceded
that there is some force in it. The
particularly crushing thing for the
east is the revelation to it of its own
blindness about the west. It had be-
come customary hereabouts to speak
of the western states as far behind
us in vigilant and vivid patriotism.
They were comparatively cold about
the war in Europe. In the last presi-
dental election, they voted for viii.
so1-proof enough Of decayed fiber!
IT was region of America over
which eastern patriots shook their
heads sadly. We even had to send
them missionaries to preach the doc
trines of the true army gospel. But
it looks now as If the west would
have to send missionaries east, as the
converts there put to shame the
preachers here. Anyhow, it is safe
to say that we shall not hear so
much IN these parts about the sordid
and besotted west.

A GRAVE PERIL.

In the April % edition Of the LODI
donSpaily Mail. which is before US,
more aas given to the food stu
alton eSts Britain than to any
other; ciE The Mail is one Of
the bdely circulated and most
infld l&lf newspapers in England.
Unless. this newspaper is deliberately
deceiving its readers for some reason
that we cannot imagine, the scarcity
Of food IN Great Britain has reached
a pointswhsre it constitutes one OF
the gravest ot3the many dangers that
confront us and our allies in the war
against Germany.
The leading news article in the Mail
carrie the headline: Bread Econ
omy FORGE This article states
that kfdod Nhuch shorter than the
great AasyW of the public have any
knowiedgeof'' and that "margerine
Is now as scarce as wheaton flour
and potatoes; butter, among other
things, soon will be-"
On May I, says the Mall, the food
controller was to take over all the
-four mills in the nation, so as to con-
troll the quality and quantity Of flour
manufactured and thus protect the
people against themselves"
The Mail quotes one of the food COD
troll officials for this startling state
ment:
I'VE are consuming 50 per cent
more wheat than the total In sight
tin the next 'Aa4Nest..'i" Thets '''iare
thousands Of thoughtless, ignorant
and incredulous people who do not
realize that If the present over-coD-
sumption and waste continue we shall
be at the end of our most essential
food in less than three months.
Starvation, and not the Hun, is the
foe that we have to fear"
The food controller, according tc
the Mail, may. find it necessary to
follow up control of the -four mills
by taking over the bakehouses, the
dairies, the slaughterhouses and
even the kitchens where food il
adapted for sale.'
The leading editorial in this issue
of the Mail commends the government
for taking the most drastic action t.
compel food economy ana exhorts the
people Of Great Britain to realize
their danger"
Vet it be clearly understood" says
this editorial, that by no device Of
man, except great reduction OF con-
sumption, can the scarcity of food
stuffs be overcome. It is not pecu-
liar to this country, though here It
is aggravated and complicated by the
very grave menace Of the submarine
war. 1t is general throughout the
world and even in that land of plenty,
the United States, the hour when fix
ed rations will be imposed is in sight.
1t is as much the duty of the people
. at home to save food and to sacrifice
all they can to do this as It is the
duty of the man at the front to RISK
his life for his country. They have
SO long enjoyed an immense and ap-
parently unlimited supply of cheap
food that they find it difficult to be-
lieve that 1t can be interfered with.
But it can be, and there will be
a grim awakening if they do not real
ize the fact"
All of which is OF the utmost I'M
portance to the people of the United
States, upon whom devolves the vital
task of supplying a large part Of the,
food for their allies. Not only must
we supply it, We must transport it,
as we'll, submarines or no submarines.

Washington, Aug. 2s.-President Will.
son last night issued a proclamation
which settled all doubt as to the atti.

regard to exports to the neutral nations
of Europe. These countries, hereafter,
are to get no supplies which "either di-

Sweeping in its terms, the proclsma-
ton places under control the export of
all articles of commerce, so far as the
neutrals of Europe are concerned and the
president, in supplemental statement,
pointed out that it obviously is neces-
sary to exercise a closer supervision in
dealing with these governments than
with others. The proclamation becomes
effective Aug. 30.
Coin, bullion, currency and evidences of
debt even. were included in the restricted
list affecting the European neutrals and

circuit court of appeals yesterday denied
petition of Arthur L. Hobart of Brain,
tree for rehearing of a suit recently
brought by him for the appointment OF
receiver for the Royal Arcanum, a
fraternal insurance order. A decree of
the district court which named Thomas
j. Boynton as temporary receiver, was
revoked two months ago by the appel
late court, which upheld the contention
of the Royal Arcanum that under the
Massachusetts statute the right to bring
such proceeding against faternal in
surance organization was vested solely
in the attorney general. The court, in
its decision yesterday, overruled Ho-
bart's claim that it was without author.
