IS DEMOCRACY A FAILURE?

The American people have achieved victory for de mOcracy They have proved that they can govern them selves.
 Through all sorts of agencies the United States Food Administration has endeavored to bring home to the nat ion the vital necessity for sending wheat meat fats and sugar over there What has been the response?
 Perhaps wheat has been our biggest problem. We have realized how very important is to give the Allies wheat To them the staff of lfe the "day bread" of their prayers, is the wheat loaf
 What were the conditions this side of the Atlantic The wheat crop of 1917 was larger than the 1916 crop but was over one hundred fiftyfive million bushels less than the average production for the years 1911 to 1915 If we had eaten as much as we usually do would have had only twenty million bushels to send over there.
 We realized then, and still realizing, that we must not eat as much usual What have done up to this time? We have sent one hundred million bushels and by September 1s we will have increased this total amount by many millions.
 Let the German militarists still argue that "democ Iacy is failure" They do not know the democracy of America!

ing about the raids Of yesterday. He
was in close touch with the Depart

was also learned that simultaneously
with the announcement OF the raid,
Nr. Baruch called together all Of the
section heads OF the board for con-

conndentially touched upon.
The War Industries Board had been
receiving complaints from munitions
makers that they were being held up
BY men maintaining Offices here and
representing themselves as in posi-

Complaints became so numerous that
they are believed to have been an i'm
