HOOVER APPEALS
To ARIZONA FOLK
TO THE PEOPLE OF ARIZONA
Dec. Is, 1918.

" Dec. Id, 1918.
Again in full confidence 1 call upon
the American people to set aside Sun
day and the week following, for the
consideration of Americas opportunity
for renewed service and sacrifice
Last summer when the military sit
uation was acute we assured the Inter
Allied Food Conference in London that
whatever the war food program of the
Allies required we were prepared to
meet; that the conference need not
consider whether or not we had the
supplies-we were prepared to find
them; we pledged ourselves by the
voluntary economy of our people to
have the reserves in food to supply
all necessities. The ending of the
war does not release us from the
pledge. The same populations must
be fed and until another season has
passed they cannot feed themselves.
The change in the foreign situation
necessarily alters the details of our
food program because the freeing of
the seas from the submarine menace
renders accessible the wheat supplies
of India, Australia and the Argentine.
The total food demand upon the United
States is not diminished, however On
the contrary it is increased. In addi-
tion to the supplying of those to whom
we are already pledged we now have
the splendid opportunity and obliga-
ton of meeting the needs of those
millions of people in the hitherto oc-
cupied territories who are facing ac-
tual starvation The people of Bel
GUM, Northern France, Serbia, Rou-
mania, Montenegro, Poland, Russia
and Armenia rely upon America for
immediate aid. We must also partici-
pate in the preservation of the newly
liberated nations in Austria; nor can
we ignore the effect on the future
world developments Of famine con-
dition among those other people whom
we have recently released from our
enemies. All these considerations mean
that upward of TWO HUNDRED MIL
LION PEOPLE, in ADDITION to those
we are already pledged to serve, are
now looking to Us in their misery and
famine. Our appeal today is therefore
larger than the former appeal to the
WAR Conscience" of our people, The
new appeal is to the world Consci-
ence" which must be the guiding in
spiration of our future program
The President of the United States
has asked me to take charge for this
government of this work; to perfect
and enlarge the arrangements for food
stuffs to the populations of Belgium
and France now being released and
to organize and determine the need
of provision to the liberated peoples
debacle as his taken place in Russia.
The determining factor for the sue
cess of such an enlarged appeal will
be the vivid consciousness in every in
dividual in each community of obliga-
tion and opportunity. 1t is that COM
mon recognition of obligation that we
now wish to create. Such an intelli-
gent "World Conscience" in the Amer
lean people must be the main depend
ence Of the stricken countries of the

CONVERSION Of
v. 5. s. OUTLINED

Secretary of the Treasury w. G. Nc
Adoo has wired to state directors for
the War Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps giving directions for the re.
demption of series 1918 stamps left
unsold in the hands of authorized first
class agents in stamps of the 1919
series, the redemption period being
from January to 10.
War Savings Stamps OF the series
of 1918 which remain unsold in the
hands of first class authorized agen-
cies for their sale, largely the banks,
Will be computed at value of S4.24
per stamp. The first class authorized
agencies bought them for cash at the
various cost figures for 1918, starting
at S4.l2 last January and running up
a cent month until December when
they cost $4.23, and in the exchange
for 1919 series stamps the first class
authorized agencies are, therefore, en-
titled to interest on their money the
same as any other investors in WIS S.
In exchanging for 1919 series W.S.S.
the new stamps start off at the same
price for January that the 1918 stamps
Gid, $4.12 and the old stamps will be
redeemed at price of $424 with new
stamps at price of $4.12, the diff
ference being paid in Thrift Stamps
at 20 cents each and any fractional
balance which cannot be met with a
25-cent payment will be paid in cash.
That, in brief is the plan of ex-
change. AS it is outlined in full in
Secretary McAdoo's telegram it is as
follows:
"The aggregate value of war savings
certificate stamps series of 1918 re-
ceived from such authorized agent Of
the first class for exchange shall be
computed at the price of $4.25 for
each such war savings certificate
stamp. The bank or trust company
making the exchange shall then de-
liver, in exchange therefor to such
authorized agent of the first class war
savings certificate stamps series OF
1919 computed at the price of $412
each to the extent that the same may
be delivered without exceeding the ag-
gregate value of the war saving GER
tificate stamps, series of 1918 received
for exchange and computed as above
required. Any balance remaining of
such aggregate value shall be paid by
delivery of United States Thrift
Stamps at 25 cents each to-the extent
that may be done without exceeding
such balance and any balance remain
ing shall be paid in cash. Such ex-
change may be made only on presenta-
tion by the authorized agent of the
: first class of his certificate of ap-
pointment for sale of war savings GER
tificate stamps series of 1918 bearing
facsimile signature of the secretary of
the treasury An Incorporated bank
or trust company receiving war saw
for collection or exchange is author
lied to deliver on or before January
20, 1919, such war savings certificate
stamps series of 1918 so received to
the Federal Reserve Bank of its dis
trict with a statement setting forth the
name of the authorized agent of the
first class from whom the same have
been received and the number of
stamps received from such agent. On
receipt thereof the Federal Reserve
States will pay such bank or trust

equivalent of the wages paid there
would have been no complaint, but in
almost corresponding ratio the SER
vice rendered has dropped by the
amount that wages went up. To be
sure, with Uncle Sam footing the
bills. at 26 cents the mine owner was
protected, but now that war orders
have ceased and peace consumption
is not yet in sight real crisis threat
ems.
Before the war Germany by direct
and indirect importations, took 400,-
100000 pounds of American copper
annually 1t is conceded that it will
be a long time before she can be
counted on to take a similar amount
But the problem does not concern
itself with the distant future. The re-
construction of Europe, the require
ments for deferred consumption the
world over, will absorb a huge amount
of copper. 1t does concern itself with
the present-the next six months.
Unless governmental assistance is
forthcoming the mining companies
will be confronted with some pretty
big problems.

Representative Rodenberg of ILL.,
nois, republican. blew up with q loud
bang, in the House Tuesday. and
in q heated speech accused the presi-
dent Of playing politics during the
war We don't believe there is any
politics in the war that Mr.. Wilson
can prevent. It is evident from his
words and actions that he is firmly
against all political Influences. It is
impossible for him to keep every
body else from pursuing q different
policy. There has not been tenth as
much politics in this big war as there
was in the little Spanish American
war. Mr.. Mckinley was q patriot
and as clean and honorable an Amer
lean as ever lived. Yet he could not
prevent war operations under his adj
ministration from reeking with poll
tics. Mr.. Wilson is much stronger
man than Mr.. Mckinley and the Ann
erican people are twenty times wider
awake to their duties than they were
twenty years ago. Rodenberg's
speech met very little favor with his
colleagues. It was he instead Of the
president that was playing politics.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Is More
than half Of the great number Of ship
yard workers needed to carry out the
countrys merchant marine program
have been secured in the first half Of
the first week Of the nation wide en-

The national drive will be continued
another week, however, and thereaft-

Mr.. Hall pointed out today that to
get suitable men is more important
than speed in attaining the quota. He
emphasized the fact that men are not
expected to leave their present jobs

Dor department for shipbuilding serv-
ice. Much hardship results, he said.
