Our Food Problem
Farm and Fireside.

Since Herbert Hoover was given
governmental authority to admins
ter and safeguard our nations food
supply, every consumer of foodstuffs
at home and abroad has become vi
tally interested in his efforts. Crit
cism of his work was to be expected.
for whenever the business interest of
individuals must suffer in conse-
quence of interference with establish
ed custom the greatest good of the
greatest number is at least temper
arily forgotten. But now that Mr..
Hoover's plan of action is becoming
better understood, as evidenced by
the establishing of what under exist
ing circumstances will be considered
a fair price for the wheat crop of this
year and next, there is a feeling of
security developing in the public
mind. This feeling is based on the
belief that whatever is done for pres
ent cheapening and conservation of
food and the encouragement of an
increased future supply will be ac-
complished not by ene-man dictum,
but by calling to his help a just and
fair representation of all the inter
ests affected.
At the recent Chicago conference,
when Mr.. Hoover discussed the pres
ent food situation and future out
look before the editors and publish
ers of more than one hundred farm
papers, the fact became clear that
the Food Administration is entering
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1917-10-16

Inc among allied and neutral coun-
tries, America must restrict the de-
mands of spectators, and as citi-
zens we must reduce our consump-
ton of those foodstuffs which are
best adapted to carrying abroad,
such as cured meats, grain, and dairy
products, and for ourselves substi-
tute those foods which we have in
abundance but are more perishable.
But even more vital than conserv-
alton and economy in food and cloth
ing, this conference showed the abso-
Lutte necessity of next years increase
of production of all staples, and par
ticularly all kinds of animal food. The
experience of all the warning nations
IS unit in showing that animal food,
and fats particularly, cannot long be
omitted from the diet of soldiers and
civilians whose work requires contin-
ued, energetic action of mind and
body, without great loss of efficiency.
The European supply of food animals
has dwindled very low, and on our
ability to furnish animal food and
fats in addition to staple grains will
depend the efficiency of our own and
allied troops, and eventually the
cause which we have espoused.
In closing his address before the
conference, Mr.. Hoover said that he
had watched the suffering of ten mil
lion people while in Europe under
the wrongs of Dictatorship" He
resents the title Dictator" and as
serts that his aim is to make his work,
and that of those engaged with him,
administrative He. said that every
thing he did would be open to the in
spection of everyone. That it was
his purpose to keep wheat up to a
fair price so farmers would raise it.
To be successful in his job of food
administrator Mr.. Hoover said
"There must be combined effort. For
as surely as we were fighting for free
dom in 1875, we are fighting for our
national existence and our national
fate this day and month, 1917"
