this is possibl only through the utter
overthrow of the military power,
the military pride and the military
sway of Germany.
To this mightiest task ever under
taken by man let the Allies, and
America above. all, dedicate them
selves unreservedly, uncompromis-
ingly, unintermittently to the ut
most stretch of their resources and
their powers. Let there be no whis-
per of peace by agreement, which
means the downfall of Western civ
ilization; no respite or relaxation in
any form of our effort until the por-
'tentious phantom of Teutonic mill
tary prowess is smitten and pierced
through and through and vanishes
into air like the ghost of Loda.
Nor let anyone suppose that the
open and resolute proclamation OF
this inflexible purpose will prolong
the war or stimulate the Teuton to
more desperate defiance. On the
contrary, it will chill his blood and
blanch his cheek. He is essentially
a bully, and nothing feeds his in
science like the least complaistnce
on the part OF his victim. Hitherto
he has never believed that America
was in earnest, and he has despised
us accordingly. Now let him know
and feel that America is more des-
perately in earnest even than Eng
land, even than France; that she
will listen to no hint of peace by
understanding but that she is ready
and eager with limitless blood and
treasure to quell the Teutonic ter
ror once and forever, and that the

We can say emphatically that all

Mr. Hoover spoke of the great prob

of which was time and the second eX-

To increase our beef production,
continued Mr.. Hoover, would require
from three to five years On the other
hand, we could bring about an enor-
nous increase in our meat and fat
production through swine within nine

Mr. Hoover said the American agri-
