The initial movement for placing
Oregon upon n voluntary "wheatless
until harvest" basis. thus rallying to
the urgent call of Uncle Sam In his
great task OF feeding our army at the
front and the armies and civilian
peoples OF the Allies. was taken on
Thursday. May 20, at Portland. when
County Food Administrators. assem-
bled from 2s out OF 36 counties, un-
animously adopted the following
resolution:
whereas the wheat situation OF
the nation and the Allies has become
exceedingly acute--so acute that only
by the most drastic curtailments In
consumption can America meet the
grave duty and military necessity
which confronts her; therefore, be II
Resolved. that Il Is the unanimous
conviction OF the County Food Ad-
illustrators OF the state OF oregon
and others attending the Food Nd
mlnistration conference held In Port
land May 22-23. 1918, that Oregon
be placed at once ms nearly as may be
upon a voluntary wheatless basis,
this to continue until August. 1918.
And be Il further
Resolved. that each county admin
istrator shall Immediately take steps
to bring his county TO such wheatless
standard: that this resolution shall
not contemplate curtailing consump-
tion OF wheat products by heavy man
uai laborers. or others necessarily de-
pendent upon bakers bread to a
point which will impair their ef-
ficiency; that bakers should limit
their consumption of wheat flour to
| 20 per cent OF that OF the correspond

should sell with each pound OF wheat
flour three pounds OF Substitute. and

than the price OF wheat. But he Is
without authority to make II lower.
The only regulation he can exercise
restriction on the profits OF millers,
wholesalers and retailers, and this
he has done. Congress ought to give
the food administration power to fix
the price OF corn.
Meanwhile we are engaged In q ter
ribie war. Our greatest work In that
war Is yet to be done. We have but
little conception OF the sacrifices we
may have to make.
The real sacrifices up to the pre-
sent are by the young men who are
offering their lives, and by the par
ents and wives who are offering their
sons and husbands as hostages and
defenders OF freedom and OF the re-
public.
Compared with these supreme acts
OF devotion the slight privatlon OF
using substitutes instead OF wheat
flour IS nothing.
The buying of War Stamps is mo-
thing
The purchase OF a Liberty Bond is
nothing
A gift to the Red Cross Is nothing
In comparison with the gift OF man
ly young man In defense OF the homes
and privileges and free institutions OF
America.

whole brunt OF resisting the conquer

three ounces day, but little more

Our people have n saying, which
has become current, that the luxur-
les OF one generation are the neces-
sites for the next. And really we
seem to have practiced Just such a
System OF evolution. Our people are
shining examples of the truth that
extravagence breeds extravaganza.
We OF this generation listen TO old
people as they describe conditions OF
their day, and we wonder how, they
managed to render life at all endura-
BILE.
Yet these same old people In their
day. enjoyed life to tho full. They
did not consider themselves In any
sense objects OF pity.Thoy lived sim
pie, wholesome lives, and the wis
dom OF their mode OF life is amply
demonstrated by the mere fact that
they. the exponents OF this simple,
frugal life, are yet with us TO bear
testimony to It's merits,
There 10 great need that, In many
respects. we revert to the frugal life
OF our ancestors. True. In many
matters their luxuries have really
become our necessities and are no
more an extravaganza than were
their simple iuxuries. But we have
added UNNECESSARILY TO these lux
urles. II Is these we are called upon
TO forego.
Mark well the man or woman who
continues the extravagances of for
mer years. Their patriotism is of a
purely negative quality. Henceforth.
until this war is won, extragance and
disloyalty are going to become al
mos, synonymous terms.
And even then our frugality will
be worthless unless II be practiced
In the name OF the cause, and the re-
suits applied 10 the cause.

THE LINES DRAWN


The hour has long since struck
when there can be but two classes OF
people in this country-Americans
and Pro-Germans. There can be no
such thing as neutrality. Every citi-
zen is either for or against his coun-
try The Government Is calling on
every man. woman and child within
our borders TO declare themselves,
and the call can no more be evaded
than could the call TO the ranks
Uncle Sam has no intention OF unduly
depressing any person. Nevertheless
there Is war TO fight and win. a
cause to be battled for to triumph.
and in this every persons services
are called for and must be given TO
the extent OF that ones ability,
The hour has struck when we must
separate the sheep from the goats
the citizens from the parasites and
leeches. Ten million OF our people
are already enrolled. but this is only
about one-twentieth of our number.
These ten millions are enrolled In the
arms bearing division. But there Is
an arms-furnlshing department to be
named and financed. as well as all
the other sinews OF war, and TO this
task the other ninety million are cali
ed.
We some time ago arrived at the
certain knowledge that the world is
at war for a principle. and every hu-
man being Ia this country must either
accept or reject that principle. Once
and for all we must determine
whether or not man shall be a free
agent or the puppet OF petty tyrant.
Once and for all we must determine
whether a people shall choose their
own allegiance or be subject TO the
call OF royal butchers who would
feed them to the Moloch OF war pure
ly to further their own lust for pow

And In the determination OF this
mighty question every person of or

OF life and death.
We repeat, we must separate the
sheep from the goats. Every com
munlty should label It's entire
citizenship or dlsloyal, as the
case may be. Slackers. traitors and
prot Germans should be placed In d
class by themselves. Loyal Americans
should have Lo dealings with these
people. They should be made to feel
the heavy displeasure OF their loyal
neighbors, be their station high of
standing what II may.
And IN this melting and remould-
ing process, race or nationality should
have absolutely no weight whatever
The loyal American OF German
blood or nativity should be as warm
ly welcomed into the ranks OF the
country's defenders as the puresi
blooded American among US. On the
