ESCAMBIA COUNTY WOMAN'S
WAR WORK COMMITTEE EN-
GAGGED IN WAR SAVINGS DRIVE

One factor which Is aiding materi-
ally In the campaign is that while the
sum to be raised by Escanbia is large,
it, is not necessary to pay the amount
al at one time. as the pledges allow
one to make payment each month if
they wish to do go. Many women
are taking War Saving Stamps as in
vestments for the boy or girl VINO
wishes to go to college or to enter
some avocation, and many Of these
young people themselves have already
started a nest egg and are adding to
their investment during this drive.
With the interest and enthusiasm
already displayed. there seems every
reason to believe that Pensacola wo-
men will carry this drive over the top,
N the same way that every other drive
has been carried.
If Pensacola should fail in this, it
would be the first patriotic drive which
has been launched in this section
which has not been carried forward
to success. But there is no such word
IS fail in Pensacola's vocabulary and
with such men as Postmaster B. 8.
Hancock and c. B. Hervey at its head
and the strong team OF women en-
gagged in the drive there seems every
assurance Of success.

Some of the meetings are describ-

u. S. MUST SAVE
FOOD TO WIN WAR
Hoover Asserts Economy Will Save
Million American Lives-AIIies'
Demand Is Greater.

Washington, Sept. 23.-Food Admin
istratOr Hoover called upon the ma
ton to aid the American and allied
armies to strike the final blow in 1913
by adopting a new food conservation
program that will entirely eliminate
waste and over-feediEg.
The war can be won and will be
won next year if the American peo-
pie, out of their food economies, will
be won next year if the American peo-
pie, out of their food economies, will
save the food necessary to maintain
the strength of the armies and allied
civil populations. Mr.. Hoover de-
clared.
If, by failure to save food and en-
able the United States to increase by
one-third it's food shipments to France,
the war is prolonged to 1920, the ma
ton is warned it will cost an addition
al million of American lives.
1t is necessary, the food administra,
tor said, to increase American food
shipments to Europe by $4,000 tons
asked to reduce it's consumption OF
breadstuffs and meats one-half pound
a week for each person. No wheat
less or meatless days and no ration
ing system will be necessary if the
nation entirely eliminates waste.
"There is no prospect of a proper
ending of the war before the cam
paign Of the summer of 1915" said
Mr.. Hoover. "To attain victory we
must place in France 100000 fight
ing men with the greatest mechanical
equipment that has ever been given to
any army. While we expect the po-
sition on the western front may be
improved, from a military point OF
view, between now and then, there can
be no hope of a contamination of the
end that we must secure until an
other year has gone by"
