KEPT PLEDGE
TO SEND BREAD
American Nation Maintained Al
lied Loaf Through Self
Denial at Home Table.
AVERTED EUROPEAN DESPAIR.
With Military Demands Upon Ocean
Shipping Relieved, World 10 Able
to Return to Normal White
Wheat Bread.

Since the advent of the latest wheat
crop the only limitation upon Ameri-
can exports to Europe has been the
shortage of shipping. Between July
and October 10 we shipped 65,9S0,30j
bushels. If this rate should continue
until the end of the fiscal year we will
have furnished the Allies with more
than 237 100000 bushels Of wheat and
flour In terms of wheat.
The result of increased production
and conservation efforts In the United
States has been that with the cessa
ton Of hOstilities we are able to re-
turn to a normal wheat diet. Supplies
that have accumulated In Australia.
Argentine and other hitherto inacces
sible markets may be tapped by ships
released from transport service, and
European demand for American wheat
probably will not exceed our normal
surplus. There Is wheat enough avail.
able to have a white loaf at the com.
mon table.
But last year the tale was different.
Only by the greatest possible saving
and sacrifice were we able to keep
steady stream of wheat and -four NOV.
ing across the sea. We found our
selves at the beginning of the harvest
year with an unusually short crop.
Even the most optimistic statisticians
figured that we had bare surplus of
100000 bushels. And yet Europe
was facing the probability of bread
famine-and in Europe bread is by far
the most important article In the diet.
All Of this surplus had left the
country early In the fall. BY the first
Of the year we had managed to ship a
little more than 100000 bushels by
practicing the utmost economy at
home-by wheatless days, wheatless
meals, heavy substitution Of other
cereals and by sacrifice at almost
every meal throughout the country.
In January the late Lord Rhondda,
then British Food Controller, cabled
that only IL we sent an additional 75,-
100000 bushels before July could he
take the responsibility of assuring his
people that they would be fed.
The response of the American peo.
pie was S5,000,000 bushels safely deliv-
cred overseas between January and
July 1. Out Of harvest which gave
us only 20,OOO,0O0 bushels surplus we
actually shipped 141 100000 bushels.
Thus did America fulfill her pledge
that the Allied bread rations could be
maintained, and already the American
people are demonstrating that, with
an awakened war conscience, last
years figures will be bettered.

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

To the voluntary service and sacri-
attributed the continued health,
strength and morale of the Allied ar
mics and the civil populace.
Upon this spirit of service and sac
rifice 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 II, S20,-
900 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 a purely
voluntary basis, the American people
have conclusively proved that democ-
racy Is a success ano that in time Of
need IL will rise to Its own defense.
II there were no other accomplish
ment to Its credit the very fact that ii
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 Administrators expressed
his determination to meet Americas
food problem on basis Of voluntary
action and eiterated 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
at our door, and our people have al
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and prepare
voluntarily and efficiently In many di-
rections and upon the mere word Of
inspiration aside from the remarkable
assemblage Of our Army and finances"
The history of the Food Admlnistra-
ton has clearly shown that the trust
of those who put their faith In democ-
racy has not been misplaced.

SAVE 100000 BUSHELS
OF WHEAT THAT FORMERLY

Farmers, Urged by Food Adminlstra.
ton, Provide Seven Extra Loaves
of Bread for Every American.

BY adopting cleaner threshing meth

ed, threshermen and farmers of 4
United States this year saved fuiS
100000 bushels Of wheat, estimatG
as equivalent to about seven one-pound
loaves of bread for every person in
the country This result, accompanied
by corresponding savings of barley,
oats, rye and other grains, is shown by
reports from SO grain states to the U.
s. Food Administration. Other states.
although not prepared TO furnish def
mite figures of conservation In the
grain fields, report greatly reduced
harvest losses.
This rural food saving achievement,
accomplished in scarcely six months
time, was in direct response to re-
quests by the Food Administration,
which asked farmers and threshermen
to reduce harvest losses from about
81 per cent.-the estimated average
I'm normal times-to the lowest posi-
BILE minimum. Country grain thresh
ing committees carried into every
grain growing community the official
recommendations for accomplishing
the results desired.
In numerous instances drivers of
racks with leaky bottoms were sent
from the fields to repair their. equip
ment and frequently bad order thresh-
lnS machines were stopped until the
cause Of waste was removed. But In
proportion to the number Of persons
engaged in gathering the nations grain
crop, cases Of compulsion were COM
paratively rare. The. Food Admins

the grain threshing campaign to pa.
