HOME CARD CAMPAIGN PUT OFF
Epidemic of Influenza NeceSSitateS
POstpOning Distribution.

The new conservation program of
the United States Food Administra-
ton will go into 90 million American
hcmes the week of December l in
stead of the week of October 27, as
was previously announced, to hang
upon the kitchen wall until the war
is over. The distribution of the new
home card has been postponed on ac-
count Of the epidemic of Spanish in
/ fiuenza throughout the country. The
/ provisions on this home card are the
chart by which the conduct of the
American households will be guided
as long as the stress of war lasts.
One year ago the pledge Of food
conservation was taken by l. million
families and a home card was given
to each for its guidance. This year
no pledge will be taken: the Govern
ment knows that every loyal Amer
lean is committed to doing all that is
necessary to win the war and fulfill
the nations purpose. The American
war conscience is aroused.
When the inter-Allied food council
was held last summer. the needs of
the Allies were computed and the re-
sources from which they could be met
were reck0ned. America must this
year send for the Army and the Allies
half again as much food supplies as
last year. In place of 114 million
tons, the shipments this year will be
~ million tons. This country is /.
pledged to send 80 per cent more food /.
from substantially the same stocks as I
last year There must be increased
conservation to accomplish the re-
suit
As first step in the new program,
ii was resolved by the conference of
Federal Food Administrators who met
in Washington when Mr.. Hoover re-
'urTed from Europe in September to
place in every home the card telling
the essence Of the new program.
This program is less specific but no
less definite than that of the last
twelve months. Then the Food Ad-
ministration was meeting one emer-
gency after another as it rose. This
year it will be a long. steady pull di-
rected TO the whole food situation
and not so much to particular COM

AUSTRIA'S DOOW SEALED

The death knell of Austr is sound
ed in President Wilson's m sage to-
day stating that autonomy Cannot b,
accepted as basis for peace but that
tria-Hungary shall be the judges OF
what action on the part of the AustrO-
Hungarian government will satisfy
their aspirations"
The most important. politically. OF
the oppressed peoples" are the
Czecho- -SlOvaks. They have judged
already what action on the part of the
AustrO-Hungarian government will
satisfy their aspirations, and their
judgment is expressed in their de-
claration of independence, issued in
Paris yesterday.
They, too. see no merit in the Aus
trian emperors makeshift plan for a
federation OF autonomous states as
means of holding his crumbling EN-
pire together. They call such a plan
a mock federation, a new form of
the denationalizing oppression under
which we have suffered for the last
300 years"
Events move rapidly in diplomacy
nowadays. The ink is hardly dry on
Emperor's Charles proclamation in
favor Of autonomy. yet there have been
two decisive answers that doom it to
failure.
President Wilson could hardly have
said less to Austria than he did to-
day. This nation and the Allies have
recognized the Czecho-SloVak National
Council as representing a belligeren:
nation fighting the Central Powers
Having gone so far. America could
not give approval to a peace which
would put the Czechs and the Slovaks
back under the Austrian heel.
But if the new nation is given its
home lands, that may well mean the
breaking-up of the whole Austrian EN-
pire. Other oppressed natiOnalities |
have claims no less just than those of
the Czecho-SlOvaks, even if not so
fOrcefully asserted. Italy, Serbia, Ru-
mania and Poland claim portions of
the empire.
What the outcome will be. no one |
can tell at present. but there's moth
ing very cheerful in the outlook for
Charles.
