ucts for non-food purposes should
cease such use entirely.
g. There is no limit upon the use of
other cereals, flours, and meals, corn,
barley, buckWheat, potato -four, ct
cetera.
Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod
ucts whatever, except d very small
amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so in perfect health and satisfac-
ton. There is no reason why all of
the American people who are able to
cook in their own households cannot
subsist perfectly we'll with the use Of
less wheat products than one and one
half pounds a.week, and we specially
ask the Well-to-do households in the
country to follow this additional pro-
gramme in order that we may provide
the necessary marginal supplies for
those parts Of the community less able
to adapt themselves to so large pro-
portion of substitutes.
In order that we shall be able to
make the wheat exports that are ah-
solutely demanded of US to maintain
the civil population and soldiers of the
allies and our own army, we propose
to supplement the voluntary co-opera-
ton of the public by further limita'
ton of distribution, and we shall place
at once restrictions on distribution
which will be adjusted from time to
time to secure as nearly equitable dis
tribution as possible. With the arrival
of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
for the necessary patience, sacrifice
and cooperation of the distributing
trades.

things look what they aint. "
Over in France they paint the
landscape, and the guns to de-
cieye the enemy. This is called
"camouflage." "
There used to be little verse

this:
Little dabs of powder and little
dabs of paint,
Make woman look like what
she aint.
Mr.. Harrison seems to have
made a profound study of this
art, Everything he does is

campaign speech, he camoufla-
ges 'itinto a patriotic" address.
lie paints and powders his
reasons for becoming a candidate
for the Senate. Every body knows
that he is running because he
wants to be elected to the Senate.
And nobody can blame him for
wanting to be United States
Senator. Yet he says, and his
committee says for him, that he
entered the race to lead the fight
for loyal to country and party.
Now comes the report that
some of Harrison S friends are
going to make some speeches for
him IN the coming contest. One
of these speakers is said to be an
army officer who will make some
speeches in the strong Varda-
man countess" They will be
patriotic" speeches with Of
course a little politics.
No one objects to Mr.. Harrison's
friends making speeches in his
behalf, but why can't they speak
out openly and boldly for him. Let
them get ap and say, Il am for
Harrison, and am speaking for
him" But don't go around and
corral the people, get them to-
gether in the name of patriotism,
and then make a disguised,
"camouflage" POLITICAL speech.
Are Mr.. Harrison's friends
ashamed to come Out open
ly for him? Are they ashamed
to announce that they will
speak for him AID in bis behalf?
Are they afraid that the people
will not come out and listen TO d
straight out campaign speech?
If we are to have a Senatorial
contest this year, let US have a
fair, open tight-a clean fight.
Cut out mud-sIinging and un-'
derhand attacks upon the good
name of any man Let the issues
be stated clearly, let the records
of all candidates be given in
full.
Quit all this scheming, and
plotting and planning and Jock
eying for advantage, and 'camo-
ufIaging," and come out in the
open and fight like a man.
Let US have a campaign with
out hooiganism or misrepresen-
tation," and when it is over, let's
forget 1t, and go after the COM
mon enemy harder than ever.

SENATOR VARDAMAN is AGAINST FIXING PRICE

of cotton last year.

America when the tilers Of the
soil should be encouraged and
afforded every opportunity to
increase the yield of their lands
now is the time. The man who
would throw anything in their
way or hinder the production is
an enemy to society and ought
to be suppressed"
When asked il he would return
home to enter the campaign be
fore adjournment of Congress,
Senator Vardaman said
No, I cannot. I shoald like
very much to make a trip over
the State and give the people Of
Mississippi an account Of my
stewardship and [ sLall do so

Senator James X. Vardaman

Com mittee at the funeral of Sen
ator Robert F. Broussard.
When asked his opinion Of the
so-called Emerson Bill proposing
to fix the price Of raw cotton at
20 cents per pound, Senator
Vardaman said:
L have not read the Bill and of
course cannot discuss its pro
visions in detail. But | do know
that the attempt to fix the price
Of raw cotton at 20 cents per
pound is a mistake. 1t will work
an inexcusable injustice to the

Il doubtif cotton can be raised
at that price at this time, The
increased cost of foCd stu1fS,
agricultural implements, fertiIiz-
er. live stock, and all other
things that have to be bought to
produce cotton will neceSsitate e
an abnormal price to meet the
actual cost Of production.
Certainly Congress will not
attempt to fix the price at 20
cents per pound unless 1T should
fix the prices Of all cotton fab
rics and other things used in the
production Of cotton
When asked if he Thought the
Bill would possibly become law
