England would face a much more
severe food shortage. William Goode
of the food ministry told the Amer
lean Luncheon Club, If she should
decide to make with Germany "a
tired peace" He said;
Il chose the topic, Peace Without
Plenty because of the widespread
idea that with peace the scarcity OF
food would automatically disappear.
StatSticians of the ministry OF food
have given me an estimate OF the
conditions likely to ensue upon the
declaration of peace in the near fu-
ture. | also sought the opinion or an
eminent American authority, Profess
sor Graham Lusk, who represents
the United States on the 1nteralied
Council of Alimentation. and also OF
other international experts. The con-
illusions arrived at by the American,
British and other authorizes are
practically Identical"
Nj. Goode pointed out that. even
if Russia were able to feed herself.
there would be at the conclusion of
peace 100000. 600 people in Europe
clamorins for food and said.
If we make IN inconclusive peace
we shall be faced with the alterna-
tives OF sharing with our present
enemies on an agreed basis the
worlds food supplies. or of enter
ing into bitter competition for them.
The Central Empires undoubtedly
would claim full economic equality
in and free entry to the countries
which are now supplying the Allies
with food. What would such com
petition really mean? Hoover S
magnificent conservation campaign
in the United States would come TO
an abrupt end. If the allies in Eur
ope were willing 10 make an tncon-
elusive peace they could not expect
the United tates to go on saving
food for export.
AT the present moment we are
getting So per cent OF our essential
foodstuffs from the United States
and Canada, and q large proportion
of that represents voluntary self
sacrifice on the part OF the Ameri-
cans. Collapse OF the conservation
campaign would mean a vital re-
duction in the eXportable food sup
plies of the United States.
Then there would be an even
greater demand than at present up
on allied tonnage for the repatria-
ton of the American "a Dominion
troops. The Central lowers would
have no strain of repatriating troops
upon their mercantile marine, which
would be at their disposal after a
tired peace, even if shipping were

Amid the din and noise one could

Bramson also protested against
the attempt to deny him a public
trial. Unable to restore order, the
president Of the court called armed
guards, directed that the prisoner
be taken back to prison and adj
journed the session.

builders once a week and find how
they can help. The need is for &C
tive and continued counsel through
which the businessmen seek, with.
out officious interference, to relieve
the shipbuilder Of as many of his
nontechnical problems as he needs
to be relieved of.
The car lines in many commune
ties are unable to meet the extra
load which the influx Of thousands
of workers has put upon them
Some communities have had to solve
the problem by changing the local
business schedule by opening stores
and offices half hour later to have
two peak loads. 1t may even mean
that the local business organization
must requisition the services of pri-
vate automobiles to carry men to
and from their work The govern
ment has just appropriated $50
600, for houses. But they will not
be ready in less than six months.
Organized business must see to it
that the citizens of their community
regardless Of questions of personal
convenience, shall take these work
men into their private homes till
other accommodation are ready.
A plan is now being worked on by
the war shipping committee, pro-
viding the ship workers be admit
ted to moving picture shows and
other places of amusement at a re-
duced price of admission. 1t is not
merely question Of price; it is the
clear implication that goes with it
that the community honors and APP
preciates the soldier.
The Cham Der of CONNER has is
sued a special bronze badge for ship
workers. More than $4,000 have al

al board of the Young Women's
Christian Association became uneasy
about their eight representatives in
the country.
Nc word has been heard from the
three association workers in Petro-

Those who were in Petrograd short
time ago are Miss Elizabeth Boies, of
Cincinnati, who is in charge of all the
Russian association work; Miss
Elizabeth Dickerson, of Minneapolis,
Mimi, and Miss Marcia Durham, of
New York City.
Having ''stood by the guns
through one revolution, word has
come in a special cablegram saying
that of the association workers in
Moscow, one remains there at the
present time. She is Miss Clarissa
Spencer, of Cincinnati, who sailed
from this country last April to carry
on war work for the National Y. w.

New Strike in Austria.

prominence to report of new
strike movement in the Industrial
regions OF Austria. According to this
statement the railways have been in.

been idle. The strikers. threatened
with military measures, returned tc
their places of employment, but
would not resume work. One dis

strike is feared. Another telegram

conference took place between rep

the socialist party, at which dele

great difficulty and misunderstood

strong feeling which existed among
the workers. They spoke especially
of the recent cutting down of the
potato and fat rations, which made

that on account of insufficient food

Awake Nation and q Sleepy Nation
In brief, Marquis Okuma observes
that foreign and domestic policies OF
the United States since she joined the
war show that. the whole strength OF
the country Is directed towards uni
flying the nation and making II
stronger after the war. In conclusion
he turned his attention towards Jap
an where he finds people are listless
and, like fishermen, sleepily sitting
on the river bank and waiting for
something to bite instead of being
alert to needs and opportunities OF
the country after the war.

GETTING Rid of Colds,

The easiest and quickest way to get
rid of cold is to take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. This preparation has
been in use for many years, and its
value fully proved. No matter what
remedy you USE however, care must
be taken not to contract a second cold
before you have recovered from the
first one, and there is serious danger
of this. A man of middle age or older
should go to bed and stay in bed until
fully recovered. 1t is better to stay
in bed three days at the start than
three weeks later on.-Adv.

ed, Also in the United States, con-
troll of food consumption and stimu-
lation of food production is still in

they fight shoulder to shoulder to
attain the kind of'peace which will
not permit those who plunged the
world in bloodshed and broke every
decency of the sea to dictate terms
and determine the flow of food.
Every phase of the food situa-
ton. all the confidential figures as
to probable imports and require
ments, point to the fact that tired
peace would compel Lord Rhondda
stringently to cut down the daily
consumption of food in this country.

realize that tired peace in the
near future would be almost certain
