 SUCCESS CHANCE
 PLAN OF ALLIES
May Only Send Supplies to Russia Without Mil
 tary Intervention.

Washington, July 1O.--The reark- able success of the Czecho- Slovak legions in establishing law and order in Siberia and overcoming armed op- position from former German and Austrian prisoners of war has caused the suspension of plans by the entente powers and the United States for the organization of an interna tional military force to campaign in Siberia.
 None of the plans considered met the objection of the United States government that they involved a weakening of the western front in Europe. It is understood an agree ment to try the American proposal to assist the Russians economically was as far as the negotiations between the entente and the Washington au- thorities had progressed.
 There is no intention of abandcn- ing the plan for the introduction into Siberia of supplies from America needed by the people of that country and the personnel of the commission tc take charge of this work is being selected.
 The entente powers will give the legions material support because the Czecho-Slovaks are their allies, anc are pledged to refrain from asserting control over the country thru which they are passing once they have put it in order.

THE METHOD

As a military necessity, Ameri- cans eat potatoes instead of wheat llip carefully into the sugar bowl make their clothes last longer, save their income above bare need for government funds, set their clocks an hour earlier, cultivate the home garden, preserve fruits against the winter, calculate their household provision, regulate their expendi- lures of money and food and en- ergy.
 Allied strategy shapes the food conservation campaign.
 Military urgency gives force to every food regulation.
 All needs bend to army require ments. Moving the army. equip ping the army, supplying the army. Sustaining the army-the army's needs always come first. i, Food, iron. wool. leather-our labor, our strength our hopes, our prayers-the army has first claim on all.
 Vessel room limits the number of men we can send; cargo space lim- tts the food and equipment we can 2 them, the munitions we oan in their hands.
 War dictates all exports and im- ports. War governs our shipments or wheat and meat, our consump- ton of sugar. our allowance of cof- fee. War needs rule our eating and going without. War needs fix what we shall wear, what we shall spend, what we shall save. War needs di- rect our living to the last detail. Carrying capacity sets the margins for using or giving up.

America Is giving up wheat that war needs may be met-every grain the ships can carry is needed to hold intact the armies of France and England and Italy and to save Belgium from starving.
 America is sending beef and pork to the limit of shipping capacity to sustain the armies and the allies.
 America is denying herself coffee doing without tropical fruits and ori. ental luxuries to release shipping for war.
 Americans are shaping theiT traffic to supply the nations needs, to maintain the strength of mill lions without waste. to provision the community at the least cost.
 Nations at war have been learn ing and doing these things through three terrible years. America also is learning and doing.

EUROPE'S NEEDS

In fainting Belgium, 100000 stand daily in line for mOrsel of bread and sup of soup.
 In France, the bread ration. which is half their living, is cut down one-third.
 England has cut down sugar one half; France and Italy allow one pound a month for each per son.
 All European countries are eating war bread mixed with all the substitutes it will stand.
 Meat in all countries is strictly rationed-usually about one pound a week for each person.
 Multitudes-some estimate A. 000,000-in Europe have diea for want of food since war be- gan.
 All Allied Europe depends on food from America.

THE E,AIMS

By willing service of a free people to do these things:
 continue to fight. To feed the hungry in Belgium and other lands that they may con- tinue to live.
 To feed our own soldiers overseas that they may want nothing. To keep prices steady and the flow of distribution even that the poor at home may be nourished nor feel the pinch of hunger.
