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

To the voluntary service and sacrf
fee Of the American people must be
attributed the continued health,
strength and morale of the Allied ar
mics and the civil populace.
Upon this spirit of service and sac
riflce will depend Europe's fate in the
months to come. In the past year we
have carried out 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 IL $780,
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, 1t would have been impos-
sible for them to maintain their de-
tense against Germany.
Meeting this world need on q purely
voluntary basis. the American people
have conclusively proved that demOc-
racy is a success ana that in time Of
need ii will rise to its own defense.
II there were no other accomplish
ment to its credit the very fact that 1t
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 a basis Of voluntary
action and reiterated his confidence
that awakened democracy would prove
irresistible.
MANY thinking Americans" said
Mr.. Hoover, land 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 1t could not be
done. Contrary proof is Immediately
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and prepare
voluntarily and efficiently In many d.
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 trust
Of those who put their faith In democ-
racy has not been misplaced.

catan in that country to Thomas j.
Nicholas and Gus Ladner, two New
York engineers, was forged over an
electric light In an apartment in this
city, Is told In affldavits filed In the
supreme court. The statement re-
veals allegations that the signature OF
Governor Argumedo was forged by Eu.
gene K. MacEncroe at the request OF
Nicholas, and was done by placing Q
slab Of glass over strong electric lights
on which was laid a military commits

Nicholas and Ladner were engaged
In engineering work In Yucatan at the
time Governor Argumedo set up an In.
dependent government, after which he
was forced to flee from a Carranzista
army and took most Of the Yucatan
treasury with him. The two engineers
followed Argumedo to New York and
in time sued him here for 100000, al
leging that they aided him in his es'
cape because he had their cash with
him and had agreed to bring 1t safely
to this city. They said that when they
demanded payment here Argumedo In
sisted that the money was his own
The state of Yucatan also claimed al
the Argumedo cash, and finally became
chief defendant In the suits.
Nicholas had obtained a judgment
for $4,000 and the state Of Yucatap
was appealing. and the Ladner case
was pending trial when, according to

Mr.. Brand, who denies that Mrs,
Tappan was his client, says that to
convince him that her story was true
she brought MacEncroe to his Office
and both stated that they had heard
Nicholas and Ladner admit that Argu-
medo never had any money belonging
to them. MacEncroe remained In
Brands office after Mrs. Tappan had
gone, and on Mr.. Brands promise to
say nothing to Mrs. Tappan about what
he would tell, he made the alleged con-
fession Of forging the Argumedo Sig
nature.
Lawyer Brand then went to Mr..
Spencer with this information and got
an agreement signed by which he was
to receive $4,000 II he obtained re.
leases from Nicholas and Ladner Of
their claims
Lawyer Brand then took the case to
the district attorney, and Nicholas and
Ladner were indicted on October 8
last. They were arrested on October
Z, and were questioned for four hours
at the district attorneys Office, and In
the meantime their apartment was ram
sacked, but the alleged forged receipt
was not found.
Brand said he then learned that Mrs.
Tappan was "getting ready to sell rs
out" and a detective was sent to ar
rest her as Q material witness and to
take her to the House Of Detention.
On that morning Nicholas and Ladner
signed general releases to the state Of,
Yucatan on promises Of immunity, af-
ter the district attorney had decided
that the case was weak, because Of the
failure to find the forged receipt.

LEND HIM A HAND

Our boys are "over there" fighting to make
this world a safe place in which to live. They
are fighting to save our wives and daughters from
the fate of the women and children of Belgium.
They are fighting for the principle that ''alI
men are created equal, that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain inaIienable rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty, and the
pursuit of Happiness"
They are fighting to put down the most tyran-
nical autocracy since the days of Nero-an au-
tocracy that knows no law which does not serve
its own vicious ends.
an autocracy which mutilates children, vio-
lates women, ~enslaves men.
