AMERICAN FARMERS HAVE
THE FIGHTING SPIRIT
RY SECRETARY HOUSTON


THE spirit revealed by the
farmers and the results OF their
efforts during the present year
indicate that they recognize the
responsibility resting upon them
in this emergency. / am conf
don't that they will patriotically
continue to assume and to bear
tn lir full share of the country's
burden. The farmers of the ma
ton have always shown their de-
votion to the cause CT freedom
ard have not been slow to re-
spond to their country's call for
men and means to defend its
rights. They will not submit to
Gcrmany's dictation. They Will
not permit her to impose Illegal
restrictions ON their privilege of
going freely to any part CT the
world where they have n legal
right to go or of sending their
products into the open markets
of the world They will realize
that the dictum of Germany that
this country should not send his
ships at will to the ports of great
nations of Europe was not only
ull W anu lAip'i
but also that. II 1t had been ac-
quiesced in, it would have in
volved them very particularly in
great financial loss and suffering.
AS the meaning of this struggle
is more fully revealed, as it be-
comes increasingly clear that a
contest is again being waged to
determine whether the world
shall be dominated by the will
ard policies of medieval despot-
isms or by those of the free and
enlightened modern states and
whether the mere rights of
might or the rule of law shall
prevail in the world, and as it,
becomes more obvious that the
surest way to force a righteous
peace is to employ effectively all
the recources of the nation, the
farmers will increasingly put
forth their strength, send their
sons to fight at the front. and
see to II that neither this nation
nor those with which we are
associated lack anything in the
way of materials for food and
clothing. 1t is incumbent upon
them, as it is upon all other CIV
ilians. to work and to save, to
seek no mere selfish advantage,
and to reveal the same spirit of
devotion and willingness to make
sacrifices and to give all they are
and have which animate the sol
dier in the trenches, If this strug-
gle is to be brought to a salts
factory conclusion. Every IA
cility that this department can
command to assist them will be
freely placed at their service"
