DO GOOD FOR EVIL.

Probably no act or utteranoe OF
Mr.. Herreid, Federal Food Admins
traitor, has been criticised and met
with opposition like his appeal to the
people issued just after the arms
ice:
South Dakotans, We have now
reached a condition In which we must,
with true American ard Christian for
:itude, return good for evil, and save
food, even for the furnishing Germans,
Austrians, Hungarians and the
Turks"
These criticisms having reached
Washington, by wire, December 4th,
the U. s. Food Administration sent
The following:
"On leaving for Europe Mr.. Hoover
made the following statement:
There Is a great problem in the
situation OF the enemy people,-about
80, 000, 900. This problem Is not one
of going to their relief. 1t is a prob
lem OF relaxing the water tight block
ade which continues through the
armistice, sufficiently 10 that they
they may secure for themselves the
bare necessities that will give stable
government. Unless anarchy can be
put down and stability Of government
can be obtained in these enemy states
there will be nobody to make peace
with and nobody to pay the bill to
France and Belgium for the fearful
destruction that has been done.
II would certainly approach this
problem with mixed feelings, having
been long a witness to the robbery Of
food from women and children and
the destruction Of millions OF tons of
food at sea and to the misery under
which the millions amonst the big
and little allies have suffered under
the German yoke. Justice requires
that a government be established,
able to make amends for wrongs done
and 1t cannot be accomplished through
spread Of anarchy. Famine Is the
mother of anarchy"

BACK TO NORMAL CONDITIONS.

Step by step we are getting back
to normal conditions.
All sugar regulations have been
suspended.
Wheat -four Substitutes" are no
longer imperative.
All special regulations governing
distributors Of fresh fruits and vege.
tables, including potatoes, have been
repealed.
While the sugar bowl may be used
on the table, 1t is more sanitary and
economical to get along without 1t.
Food Administration regulations
minimum car loading are withdrawn.
Carriers tariffs now govern.
The law against boarding" how.
ever, Is In force. Flour and sugar

boarding.

manity and as a matter of economy,
everyone Is expected to food.

Sufficient for the present to say
