Food Won
the War.


There is no question but that the
motto We took at the inception Of the
Food Administration, Food VIII Win
the War;" did not overshoot the
mark The news that comes out of
Europe. now that the war is won and
the bars OF censorship are down, DEM
onstrates most forcibly that the war
was saved for the Allies In the spring
OF 1913 solely by the food supplies
shfpped to sustain the morale OF the
British and French, who would perhaps
have answered the German terms Of
peace as early as the month of June.
It has been further emphasized by
the news that nov comes of the rea-
sons Of Germany's radical and sudden
breakdown. Germany and Austria
went through August this year on
very short rations. They had three
consecutive meatless weeks. The en-
tire rations of the German people
were five caligrams of bread and ten
OF potatoes per week, with half Of that
Tor children. They bore 1t because
In August there was still lingering a
feeling of the importance of news from
the front But when in September the
fact bore In upon their consciousness
that no matter how long they might
struggle and however they might go
through the winter without food, heat,
and with paper clothing, eventually
they had got to lose, they quit.
No nation will starve without a mo-
tive. Germany quit because the Ger
man people would not stand the food
rations without the hope of victory,
Just as the French and British were
ready to give up the sponge in the
spring for the same reason. So we
may fairly say that we did not over
state the mission of food in this war.
We have done what we were created
to do: to feed the Allies during the
var.
How IL
Was Done.
The Food Administration created
and shipped to Europe in the last year
1l1, 100000 bushels of wheat where
there were only 120,000,000 to ship
We raised the export of beef from
100000 pounds to 100000 and
500, 000.000 of pork in a single month.
Condensed milk we raised from 4,000,-
900 pounds year to 300,000,000. The
export In other foodstuffs has in
creased In like degree, even beyond
the dreams of Mr.. Hoover when he
started. You people In the states,
with the unconquerable Mr.. Hoover
at the top, have done this.
The work of the Washington or
ganization has been to maintain
price levels in this country which
would prevent dissatisfaction among
our people. We know that war
means high prices, and we also know
that high prices are the gravest
causes of discomfort. Three sets of
figures which came to my notice last
week will give you an idea of what
ia being done. Last spring when
the wholesale price Of sugar was
$3.50 per hundred, the average price
among the Allies was $3.50. The
difference in that wholesale price,
applied to the American sugar con-
sumption of last year, is $429,000, 900.

CHRISTMAS DINNER MENU
ON CONSERVATION ORDER
Repast That viii Satisfy All and
Yet Save Food For Suffering
Humanity.

In response to many requests re-
ceived for Christmas dinner menu
IN Keeping with food conservation for
world relief. the United States Food
Administration suggests the following
Tor family of five or six persons:
Charlevoix county herald. (East Jordan, Mich.) 189?-1953, 1918-12-20

Roast Turkey. Chicken, Duck. Goose
or Game or the state Law per-
mits), with Bread Dressing

Oriental Stufhng
Mashed Potatoes
Mashed Turnip Baked Tomatoes
(Home canned)
Cranberry Sauce
Lettuce or Fruit Salad
pumpkin Pie or Steamed Pudding
In suggesting a universal Christmas
dfnner menu II Is realized by the Food
Administration that a shortage or over
supply OF poultry, game or vegetables
In certain localities would materially
change the menu. Use OF local prod
ucts Is advocated so as to lessen the
tax on rail transportation.
Advices received by the Food Admin
lstration from all parts of the United
states indicate that the turkey supply
for Christmas will be good. This also
applies to chickens, ducks and geese.
Recipes in connection with the sug-
gested Christmas dinner menu are as
follows:

World Relief
Present Task.

ooHs
The most important work of the
Food Administration now Is that of
world relief-that of esta fishing the
peace and security of the world. 1t
Is big job. The war is over; we
have removed the restrictions upon
the individual use of food and have
left saving entirely to the individual
conscience. What the Food Admin
istration might demand as a service
to our nation In time of war it must
now ask in the name of humanity.
The bars are down, the rules are
on, we may buy and eat to the limit
or our purses. This is true, al
though this year we must ship abroad
100000 tons of food where last
year, with all our efforts, we shipped
only 11.SO0,000 This is the great
privilege and duty now open to the
American people.
Transportation is restored The
four corners of the earth can again
be reached for the bringing of food
stuffs. No longer are we afraid OF
submarines and mines; no longer Is
the Australian or the Indian, or the
South African, or the Argentinian
supply of food unavailable. Taking
stock Of the worlds need and the
entire worlvs supply, we find that
there is in the world. II every one
is economical, enough breadstuffs to
feed the world on bread.
Why We
Must Do It.
In England, France and Italy there
are 126,0O0,O00 people to whom. in
the average, one-half OF their food
water. Among our smaller Allies,
Belgium, Portugal, Greece, the new
nations we have created and Rou-
mania, there are 100000, Of which
100000, the urban population, will
starve this winter without our sup
plies of food. There are 100000
in Sweden, Holland, Denmark, Swift
erland, and Spain, of which only the
Spanish have today as much as two
months supply of foodstuffs. There
are $4,000, 900 Russians, OF which 43,-
O00, 900 in the southern part have suf-
ficient food with a little reorganiza-
ton Of their transportation facilities
There are 100000 in Northern
Russia, of whom 1t is absolutely GER
tain that 100000 will starve Then
there are 100000 of our enemy
people in Hungary, Austria, and Ger
many who, in many communities, are
at the point Of absolute restitution.
The city of Hamburg, for instance.
has two weeks food supply; nothing
more in sight. Armed Hungarians
guard the line to shoot down any
person who attempts to take pound
of food into Austria. The Bavarian
Germans will not ship pound to the
Prussians. 1t will probably not be
necessary for us to supply them with
food, as they have the money to buy
from the Argentine; but we must
supply their neighbors. That leaves
us. then. with a situation in which
300. 100000 have got to have found
for them 30,000,000 tons Of food to
maintain their life, and Of that
amount 70 per cent, or 100000
tons, must come from us. Pretty big
contract to turn up at the end Of the
year with 20,000,O00 tons without the
aid of patriotism and the war spirit

New York-Having met with a re- verse in their operations on the north ern side of the Flanders salient where the French and British have stood shoulder to shoulder in defense of Ypres and the high ground which forms bulwark in front of the chan nel ports, the Germans have, as indi- cated by the most recent reports, turned to the southern side of the angle in the allied lines in northern France.
 Articles appearing in the German newspapers seem to indicate efforts to prepare the German people for an an- nouncement that there will be no inn mediate attempt to take Ypres. Ex- perts writing inspired reviews of the situation say that nothing would be gained by the capture of the ruined city. This may mean that the Ger mans will turn their attention to some other part of the front for a new ef- fort and the bombardment of the lines near Merville and further east may be the first step in an attempt either to bore straight through the allied ar mics or cut through toward the south and force British retirement from the Arras-Lens salient. So far as known no infantry fighting has oc cured in this sector in the last day.
 While waiting for the Germans to make the next move the allies have not been idle. All Along the line their patrols have been active and at Hangard and Villers- rs-Bretonneux be- fore Amiens they have taken tactical positions from the Teutons. One of these positions was Hill S2 north of Castel, height which afforded good observation of the allied communica- ting lines.
 The military authority of General Foch as result of the Italian ad hesion has been extended to all of the western fronts and the general now becomes commander-in-chief of all the allied armies in the west, says Mar eel Hutin in the Echo de Paris
 NJ. Hutin saw Premier Clemenceau on his return from the meeting of the Supreme War Council at Abbe- vile. The premier, without going in to details. expressed satisfaction with the results of the conference.
 And the situation at the front" asked the writer
 General Foch is very optimistic; that's all I can tell you" was the premier's reply.

AUSTRIAN BL0W AT
 ITALY |S INDICATED
BIG TROOP MOVEMENTS IN TYR OL AND TRENTiNO IS
 REPORTED.
EMPEROR CHARLES AT FRONT
Decision To Launch An Offensive in Italy Was Doubtless Forced By Po- ItcaI and Economic Conditions
 Prevailing in Austria.

New York.-Over the battle lines along the Piave river and in the mountainous region in northern Italy, where the allied forces have been holding their positions since last No yember, after the great Italian re treat from the Isonzo, there is in- creased tension and the long threat ened blow at this front may be launch ed by the Teutonic allies within a few days. For many weeks the Italian War Office has been aware that Aus trians have been assembling the le- gions withdrawn from the Russian and Rumanian fronts for drive at the Italian armies, and it is believed that it will not be long before the cen tral powers will make another attempt to reach the plains of Ventia, break through the allies lines and seek to bring about decisive combat in that theater of the war.
 Emperor Charles of Austria, accom- panied by his chief of staff and high German and Austrian army officers. is reported on his way to the Italian front, and the great movement of troops in Tyrol and Trentino would seem to indicate that vast bodies of men are being taken from other fronts to be hurled at the Italian posi- tions.
 The blow. it is generally believed. will fall somewhere in the mountain ous sections of the front, probably in the La Garino and Astico valleys. These sectors face the north, and if broken would permit the foe to pene- trate into the lower foothills of the mountains, or even reach the plains If this should occur the armies along the Piave river would be compelled to fall back, probably as far as tho Adige river. This would entail the loss of Venice and vast expanse of coun- try to the enemy.
 The decision to launch an offensive of grand proportions in Italy was doubtless forced by political and eco- homie conditions prevailing in Aus tria. An offensive campaign that yields gains of ground might serve to still the elements which are seething throughout the dual empire and would postpone the day of reckoning that seems in store for the rulers of Aus tria.

POPE WILL ISSUE
 NEW PEACE OFFER
TERMS TO BE ANNOUNCED TO WORLD MAY 19-WIlL PRO-

The Hague.-Pope Benedict intends to issue new peace offer on Whit sunday (May 19), Cologne newspapers announce. The document, it is said, will be of more pressing nature than formerly and will contain concrete of fers of mediation by the pope. with the possible cooperation of neutral sovereigns.
 Similar information of the pope's intention, it is said, has reached Der lin, where it has been received sym pathetically
 This is not the first report emanat- ing from Germany recently that the pope is about to make another peace move. The Neueste Nachrichten Of Munich, Bavaria, according to a Lon don dispatch of April 23, said that the pope would make peace offer as soon as the western offensive had as sumed a new phase. The Bavarian take the form of "a word of warning addressed to the universal con- science"
 A dispatch from Stockholm report ed that a message from Basel an- nounced that Emperor Charles of Austria was making 6 new peace of fer, appealing to Italy to consider it in her own interest.
 That peace offensive" would be made by the central powers in the even the German offensive on the west appeared abortive has been pre- dicted frequently in all capitals. This may be the beginning.
 Pope Benedict's peace proposals last August were preceded by reports through neutral countries that he was about to take such action. The pope proposed the restoration of ter ritory captured by the central pow. CTS; peaceful settlement of the Alsace- Lorraine, Trentino and Polish ques- tions; reduction of all armaments, and freedom of the seas President Wilson, in replying for the American and entente governments, refused the proposals. The reply of the central powers, made some days after that of President Wilson, expressed hope that the pope's efforts would result in a cessation of hostilities.
