Geneeous Doing Without IN

who have been hearing the brunt OF
our battles. 50 that they could hold

Increasing IT'S toll upon the millions
who have been liberated from the
Prussian yoke Famine would undo
he work which hes been accomplished
n freeing the world for democracy. No
stable government can be established
and maintained by nation harassed
by hunger. A starving people turns
to rioting and anarchy. Food has
rlven strength and courage 10 The ma
lions fighting for democracy; IL must
now give The nations strength and
tranquility 10 re-esfahlish themselves
IN freedom and democracy.
Without our help II would have been
absolutely impossible for the Allies TO
maintain a living ration. Since our
entry into the war we have been con
tributing largely 10 the support Of one
hundred and twenty million people
whose normal food supplies have been
cut of, whose production has fallen
almost to the vanishing point, whose
fields have been devastated by Ger
many. The feod exported from the
United States In the past year has
been sufficient to supply the complete
ration OF twenty-five mlllien people.

and significance Of the assistance
which has been lent the Allies b. the
patriotic, voluntary service Of the
American people The food we sent
sbrcsd lasr year weulu have been sur
fclent TO feed one-fifth of our popula-
ton. And this was done in spite of
the fact that we entered the year with
short crops. Oar surplus was practi-
cally nothing. An overwhelming prp-
portion OF the food that left this csun-
try last year was saved out OF the nsr-
