The stories hOthering Canada are

the United States food adm!Eistra-
tor recently denounced In this crun-
try, such as the ridiculous salt aud

that the government would seize

The Canadian food controller esti.
mates that when the people listen to
and pass on such stories each one
has the power of destruction that lies
in a battalion Of soldiers.
"Stories without even a vestige Of
foundation have been scattered broad:
cast" said the Canadian statement,
"NOr have they come to life casually.
They have started simultaneously In
different parts of the country and in
each instance have been calculated to
arouse public Indignation.
"They are insidious, subtle, persist
ent. Bit by bit they dissipate public
trust, the great essential In the work
of food control.

story, and thus the more effectively

Americas great corn crop, exceed.
ing 3,OOO,OO0,O 600 bushels, will save the
worlds food situation, officials OF the
United States food administration be-
lieve.
Corn is the nations best food cereal,
housewives are beginning to realize.
1t contains all the elements needed to
keep the body in a state Of health and
when -used according to the scores OF
tried recipes, especially when COM
bined with an added portion OF oil or
fat. will sustain life indefinitely. In
dian warriors In colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at a
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration OF
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 80
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five BUSH,
els than In former years.
Corn has become the nations muin-
stay In the crisis of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
many occasions, just as 1t served as a
staple food during the War Of the Rev
oution and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come to the front In
the nations battle with autOcracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
ed use In the making Of ordinary white
bread Hundreds of housewives and
many OF the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent corn meal with wheat
flour to make leavened bread. This
kind Of a mixture Is worked and baked
In the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread-using corn meal entire
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound Of
wheat saved In America means pound
OF wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America Is associ.
ated In the war
There are score of corn products
that today possess unusual importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet.
ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes
and for use in the kitchen instead OF
granulated sugar Is one Of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil, excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad OILS

quantities. 1t comes from the germ Of
the corn.

A generation ago people spoke
unblushingly Of ''breaking a
child's spirit" not realizing that
they were killing in the child the
divine spark God gave him to go
through life.
Now that we have mothers
councils" and societies for the
promotion of child welfare, we
have discovered what a crime this
was. That the child whose spirit
was broken did not get far on the
road to success. That he was
afraid of people, afraid Of taking
chances, afraid of circumstances,
afraid Of everything that would
land him at the top rung Of the
ladder.
And that frequently he was a
constitutional liar, that the habit
of being untruthful in childhood
to protect himself, kept him from
being truthful by habit when he
grew to be a man.

firms this doctrine. The Kaiser

Saratoga, N. Y, July 1S.-American-
welt for years, was his slogan today as
he addressed the New York state re-
publicans, in session here. Prefaeing
his keynote speech with demand for
full fledged allegiance TO the American
flag, with the assertion that" there can
be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this
country" he pointed out what the re-
publican party has stood for since the
war. began and what it Will stand for
in time to come.
"The events Of the last year and a
half have shown the necessity for elect
ing republican congress, he said,
to support the administration at every
point where it acts vigorously in pros
ecuting the war and in the carrying
out of e proper world policy"
He claimed fo these republicans new
in congress better record Of support
for the administration than can be
credited to the main body of demo-
crats. He declared for equal suffrage,
but advised against government ow-
nership, He urged that businessmen
be permitted to- coopeDcte and combine,
under proper government supervision.
Profiteering out OF the war should
be stopped" he said, "but it is mere
common sense to say that proper profit
making should be encouraged. y
Labor,h added, should have the right
to cooperate and combine, with public
supervision. He favored better hous-
ing and living conditions, efforts to see
that work is made interesting, insur-
ance against old age, sickness and in
voluntary unemployment, and share
in the money reward for increased
business success.
The colonel bitterly attacked the
war department for what he termed
procrastination in carrying on the war.
Achievements which have been made
he laid at the door of the senate COM
mittee on military affairs and not to
the department.
owe have played poorspart in the
