PROVED SPIRIT
OF DEMOCRACY
Voluntary Basis Of Food Saving
Showed Heart Of America
Beat True for Freedom.

To the voluntary service and sacrl-
Hce OF the American people must be
attributed the continued health,
strength and morale Of the Allied ar.
niles and the civil populace.
Upon this spirit Of Service and sac.
ri6ce will depend Europe's fate IN the
months TO come. In the past year we
have carried 6Gl an export program,
the magnitude Of which is almost be-
yond comprehension. But with the
new demands that have come, with
the liberation Of nations freed from
German oppression, our exports must
be almost doubled. Instead Of II, ,820,-
600 tons. we must ship twenty million
tons OF food TO Europe in the coming
year--as much as can be pushed
through our ports.
II the Allies had not been fed by
America. Il would have been lmpos-
sible for them 70 maintain their de-
Tense against Germany.
Meeting this world need on purely
voluntary basis, the American people
have concluslvely proved that democ-
racy In a success ano that in time Of
need Il will rise to its own defense.
II there were no other accomplish
ment TO Its credit the very fact that II
has shown the strength Of democracy
has In itself more than justified the
existence Of the Food Administration
In the eyes Of the world.
| Less than four months after the
United States declared war the United
States Food Administrator expressed
his determination to meet Americas
food problem on basis of voluntary
action and reiterated his confidence
that awakened democracy would prove
irresistible.
"Many thinking Americans" said
Mr.. Hoover, "and the whole world
have been watching anxiously the last
four months In the fear that demo-
cratic America could not organize to
meet autocratic Germany. Germany
has been confident that II could not be
done. Contrary proof is Immediately
at our door, and our people have al.
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and prepare
voluntarily and efficiently IN many di
rections and upon the mere word Of
inspiration aside from the remarkable
assemblage Of our Army and finances.
The history of the Food Administra
ton has clearly shown that the trus
Of those who put their faith In democ
racy has not been misplaced. ~
