The few people in America who
have seen the new 1919 Home Card OF
the United States Food Administra-
tion. giving the food saving program
for next year, call II the most sensa-
tional statement yet issued TO the
American people by the Food Admin
istration.
II is printed in matter-of-fact black
and white 1t is couched in unemo-
tional language. IL is one simple state
ment of fact after the other
But II calls for the greatest sacri-
flee. the greatest conservation effort
ever asked voluntarily of any nation.
Here's Just a hint:
To meet the promises that Herbert
Hoover made to the Allies at the re-
cent Allied Food Controllers confer
ence held In London. each person in
America must be responsible for tho
exporting next year OF $50 pounds Of
food stuffs. saved at his own table.
Hoover has promised that the 1907
10000 OF US will save and ship 1850
900 tons OF food to the Allies next year
half as much again as last year.
Naturally this immense saving OF all
kinds OF food: this tightening by half

tunity to show the same patriotism in
financing the just and conclusive vic
torious peace whenever it comes.
Not for moment, however, is the
Treasury acting on any assumption
that peace is to come, soon. Until
peace is actually assured the attitude
of the Treasury and the attitude of
the whole United States Government
is for the most vigorous prosecution
of the war, and the motto of force
against Germany without stint or lin

absolute accomplished fact.
One more Liberty loan, at least, is
certain. The fourth loan was popu-

or it may be a peace loan. Whatever
the conditions, the loan must be pre-

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
