A SUFFICIENT REWARD FOR sACRI,

The people of the United States who

have some satisfaction in knowing that
Interrogation helped materially toward the
success of the allies on the field OF battle,

tailed to marked degree unless more
gasoline was available OF course, the
reason for the unusual request on the
American people could not be divnlged
during the crucial period of the strife be-
cause it would have revealed to Germany
that the allies were near the limit of
their resources in this one particular if
not in many others, while there would
have been a disheartening effect on the
people of the allied countries if they had
been permitted to know that their gov
ernments were so near the end of their
resources. Therefore, the people of the
United States who gladly acquiesced in
the desire Of the government at Wash
ington and refrained from using their
motor cars for considerable period OF
the summer of 1918 will have the salts
faction at this late day of knowing that
they were really contributing much to
the military campaigns of the allies
though they did not know it at the time

the war situation are revealed it will
probably be found that the request upon
the American people for the curtailment
of coal was based on grounds somewhat
similar as those now divulged in connee.

allies. The integrity Of the United
States government in an emergency such
as we have Just gone through with is
something upon which we should feel like
relying, while we patiently wait for the

for actions.
