MEET TOMORROW

This afternoon about 2:20 o'clock
the residents Of Lakeland were given
a real thrill when one of the largest
type Of airplanes from Arcadia passed
over the city, making several trips
ever and around town, giving hun
dreds of persons their first glimpse
of one of these machines. The streets
were filled with people almost imme-
dlately, and there has been more scru-
tiny of the sky since two o'clock
than at any time in the past year.
The machine has been sent up to
give exhibition flights here tomorrow
for the Shriners and after circling ov'
er the city for thirty minutes, looking
for a landing place, the aviators land
ed in the 4O-acre field Of Mr.. ]. c.

northeast part of town, and the avia
tors came into town much greater he

URGENT DEMAND FOR
RETURN TO DELIVERY
SYSTEM BY GROCERY
STORES IN PLANT CITY

Plant City has been without gro
Gerry delivery service since last
march and the inconvenience is now
getting on their nerves, according
to the following from the Plant City
Courier:
Plant City people have been abid
| ing the rules and regulations Of all
branches Of the government having
to do with winning the war, and now
that 1t has been won, practically II
not officially, they desire a return to
some OF the peacetime customs.
One of these is the delivery sys.
tenn by grocers and markets. Plant
City was one OF the very few places
in the entire State that eliminated
entirely the delivery Of goods during
the war-in fact, It is said that no
other city Of this size went so far as
to do away with. delivery entirely.
Nearly all co-operated In the move
ment, but In most instances there
was provision FOR one or two regular
deliveries day. In Plant City ev.
erybody has been compelled to carry
everything from sack of feed to a
quarters worth OF bacon since the
first day Of last March. The need
for that sort of thing is past, and
the housewives and workmen Of
Plant City deserve some measure Of
relief.
The dealers entered into an agree
ment TO dispense with delivery for a
year, with a forfeit of 800 as penal
ty for violation Of the agreement.
AS the public view 1t, that agree.
ment was made as war conserva-
tion measure, and there is no furth.

coDITIoNs IN FRENCH AND
BELGIAN CITE NOT 80 BAD

Harve, Nov. 20.-Conditions In
some French and Belgian cities and
towns near the FrancoBelgian bor-
der are reported as "in general,
good" by Major John van Schaick,
Jr, acting Red Cross Commissioner
for Belgium who was one Of the first
Americans to enter some of these
places after the Germans evacuated
them. In q message to the Red
Cross Headquarters here, he said:
There is no great emergency like
general famine, there is no grea
amount of sickness, there Is no tre-
mendous shortage of clothing but
there is need Of prompt assistance on
our part to meet what distress ex-
lists. The roads are horrible, espe-
cially on the Pass chendaele Ridge.
Roulers, town of $4,000 inhabi-
tants has now but LOO civilians left.
Iseghem few miles distant, town
Of $4,000 inhabitants has LOO left.
"Our camions have rushed lot Of
food UP to Turcoing, Lille, Roubaix.
Other camions took emergency ra-
tions up to some of the other little
villages this side of Roulers. AM
balances brought back sick and
wounded >Belgians who had been un.
der bombardment."
Telling Of his trip to Iseghem.
Major van Schanick described an in
cident typical Of the return Of the
Belgians to their homes which had
been occupied by the Germany mill
tary forces.
I'VE had with us a school master"
wrote the Red Cross Commissioner.
when the war began he buried oil
his little fortune, an accumulation Of
the savings of a lifetime in the gar
den of his house in Roulers. He re-
turned with our driver, wondering
whether he was poor man In his
old age or whether he had enough
to live on comfortably for the rest OF
his life. He found his house burned,
his garden ploughed with shells and
no trace whatever of his money.
nT will start again." said he. lt
was tough thing for him to find
that he had lost everything.
while some of the inhabitants
have been taken away to work. re-
ported Major van schaick, "they are
In the minority Many thousands, Of
course, have been sent back behind
the German lines. There are thou
sands who remain. They need the
help Of the American people"

Heaven knows that we should not
now begin to figure out how we can
withhold the wherewithal that is still
needed for the boys that have saved
the day and set on foot the ideals OF
democracy for the whole world. So'
let's be as liberal as possible in bring
ing to our brave boys the safe-keeping
and comfy which they have greatly
earned. We must not, | believe, think
that because the brave fellows have
fought the war to glorious hnish
that all is done and our means and
minds should be turned into other
channels of activity. When l near

sude of some, 1t causes me to Wonder

to do this, we should right about race
and do the better head work ana

that we escaped too easily and that the
great combat should have held on
longer in order to teach us something

Food will win the war has been prov.
en by the capitulation of Germany
The threat Of impending starvation
was the direct reason for the speed o'
the collapse of the Central Powers
We can all take to ourselves some
real measure Of satisfaction for the
manner in which we sustained our
Allies when their situation was far
more dire than Germany's at the time
the armistice was signed. It was only
the supplies sent forward and the
absolute assurance of others that pre-.
vented peace in June which would
not have contained the terms we have
been able to force on Germany.
But we must not forget for an in
stant that we have great trust still;
our mission has not been accom-
plished, and 1t lies in our hands TO
save the lives Of our Allies now even
S. we did when we threw our mill
tary force into the titanic struggle"
Partly In celebration of the victory
and partly for the reason that until
an intelligent report of the needs and
extent OF the relief and plans Of Mr..
Hoover can be called from Europe.
where he is now studying the situa-
tion, some relaxation Of the previous
requirements are temporarily permit
ted by the Administration, bu. while
Mr.. Hoover Is exceedingly anxious
that any power committed to the Food
Administration shall as quickly revert
back TO the people who gave 1t, just
so anxious is he that in the same
splendid spirit of sacrifice which en-
abled us to conserve for the sake of
our boys and their Allies, We still
continue to some extent to share
common table "for the sake Of suf-
fering and starving humanity.
To fight for the freedom Of the
world is good but would be absolutely
worthless II good part OF that same
world is now to be left to starve to
death for the lack OF those things
we have in over-abundance.
The Food Administration is no;
contemplating special efforts in the
direction OF the feeding OF the Ger.
man people further than to see that
shipments from the neutral countries
are allowed to proceed without delay
to Germany. There is plenty OF
wheat In Argentine, loaded ready for
immediate shipment, plenty OF sugar
and other necessary foods which Ger
many can secure IL she will at once
establish stable government And,
anyway, no red-blooded American is
going to see German woman or child |
starve to death.
The Food Administration is plan |
ming a quiet but systematic campaign |
for food conservation next month and |
the American people, whether in
or anywhere else in this
country, recognizing and apprecist.
ing the splendid work done under the
leadership Of the great Hoover are
going to give him the same measure
Of cooperation in this "for the sake
OF suffering humanity" as they did
when the slogan was "for the Ein.
ming Of the war"

Al Europe Sta idy nt Our
Doors Win Hands Out
Stretched For FOOD

Information which was laid befor,
The Food Administrators of the Stat,
)f Florida at Mondays meeting IL
Jacksonville, says local Food Admin
s'rator Holworthy, who was one o
hose present at the meeting, show,
that this nation has before 1t one o.
he most gigantic economic problems
n history, and that the only solution
IS through the Food Administration
or some similar authority. This ma
ton has today rs per cent Of all tn,
food products of the world, speaking
approximately, and there are more
than 450 millions Of people who fol
the next ten or twelve months must
look to us for supplies. Practically
al OF Europe Is standing at our doors
with hungry hands outstretched
pleading for food.
AS was 30 we'll said at the meeting
Monday by Franklin W. Fort, who
is Herbert Hoover's right hand man
America Is today the moral leader OF
the world, our tone OF service has
been grasped by all Europe. To do
other than stand by our Allies now
in the acute crisis OF their national
lives would be to sink to an abyss OF
selfshness which would overshadow
all our honorable achievements of the
past.
"0ur energies during the next few
months must be devoted to establish
ing the peace and security CT the
world, and we cannot do this unless
we keep steady stream Of food sup
plies flowing to Europe in even far
greater volume than In the past Up
to the time the armistice was
signed, the United States had on her
mind merely the problem Of provid-
ing for the 13O,00O,000 people Of the
allied nations whom she could reach.
Now we must feed 12s,OOO,O0O peo
rle OF our big Allies, 75,O0O,900 OF
our smaller Allies, 41,00O,OOO neu'
trails and S3,OOO,OOO of Russia Her
bert Hoover estimated the other day
that there are today from eight to ten
millions of people starving In north
Russia whom we cannot even reach
IN time to save. We are also re-
minded that people cannot stand the
pinch of hunger except they have. a
motive. America Is the only organ
Ized nation that has any food and II
is we who must take upon our own
shoulders the burden of feeding hun
gry Europe and prevent the tragic
chaos that wrecked Russia from now
spreading through Europe.
"The man who rises from the table
today with too tight a belt is COM
hitting a crime against civilization.
He may call himself Christian but
he is not carrying out Christian prin-
ciples; nay, he is not even decently
human IL amidst his sufficiercy he
fails to make some reasonable pro
vision for the urgent needs OF his
starving and hungry brother, no mat
ter whether he be British French
italian. Greek Pole, Servian. or Rus
sian.
