Food Conservation Cam
paign Includes Price
Regulation.

"The Conservation Week CAM
paign brought out the need fer saw
ing food and sharing it with the AL.
hes and the liberated nations" said
John M. Parker, Food Administra.
tor for Louisiana. "Conservation is
absolutely vital to the relief of
stricken Europe. Famine is the
mother of revolt and anarchy. If
we allow hunger to take its toll of
life in Europe, the red scourge Of
revolution is bound to spread and
we will see definite collapse Of
the peace for which we fought and
bled. We entered the conflict with
the avowed purpose of establishing
world peace and if we allow this to
be disrupted by uprisings and anar-
chy we will have destroyed the verv
thing for which we entered the FRAY
and which is now in sight.
'1n the coming year we must send
20 million tons of food to Europe
practically the limit of loading cap
aclty at our ports. The magnitude
of this undertaking may better be
understood in comparison with our
pre-war exports of less than 6 mil.
hon tons per year and the export
last year of only 100000 tons.
Now that the Mediterranean Sea
routes are again open to commerce,
the Europeal nations can draw up-
on the wheat supplies in India and
Australia. Consequently, this coun.
try will not be called upon to make
up the entire European wheat def
lelt and our export efforts must be
centered more largely upon fats,
meat and feeding stuffs.
Europe is extremely short of
feed and fodder and rapid deter
1oratlon of meat and dairy herds
mas followed as natural sequence.
Our exports must be largely in
creased order that the European
herds may be rehabilitated and al.
so that the immediate supplies of
milk may be increased by proper
feeding.

Monday Night.
Dear Uncle Henry:
l sure am happy tonight now that
the armistice is signed, but it may
mean that l get no farther than Camp
Hancock.
Now that the armistice terms are
signed, peace is not SO far away, so
much here is tip from me. The
men in the army are sick of uni
forms and when they get out they
are going to buy clothes and good
clothes. When you hear for sure
that peace is signed and the boys are
going to come back -dashand / mean
1t dash as fast as you can to Chicago
and buy Hart Schaffner & Marx
clothes and have them in store. All
the men are strong for their clothes
and it is not my own personal opin-
ion that makes me say it. Get good,
snappy models and many of them
and leave the other brands alone.
Don't pile up many sizes, because
you will find the men have all grown
some since they left home Even
myself l think would take a 80 and
that's no kid. / am telling you this
for your own benefit so take it what
it is worth.
Get lots of snappy stuff and pre-
pare for tn boys because they are
going to bring business to you if you
want it. Make the old store attrac-
tive to them and extend {. hand of
welcome to them all. You have no
idea how the men laugh and joke at
stories that are dirty and rotten.
have learned lots of what superior
men think Of your store since l got
here and those we have not had for
customers-I think we can get them.
