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

To the voluntary service and sacri,
ace of the American people must be
attributed the continued health,
mics and the civil populaee.
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 .sf nations freed from
German oppression, our exports must
900 tons, we must ship twenty million
tons of food to Europe In the coming
year-as much az can be pushed
through our ports.
II the Allies had not been fed by
America, It would have been impos-
sible for them 70 maintain their De-
Tense against Germany.
Meeting this world need on Q purely
voluntary basis, the American people
have conclusively proved that dsnec-
racy Ia q success ana that IA time OK
need IL will rise TO its own datsnse.
II there were no other accomplish.
ment to its credit the very fact rAat Il
has shown the strength of democracy
has in itself more than justified the
existence OF the Food AdmiHistratfcn
in the eyes Of the world
Less than four months after the
United States declared war the United
States Food Administrator expressed
his determination TO meet Americas
food problem on q basis Of voluntary
action and reiterated his confidence
that awakened democracy would prove
Irresistible
Many thinking Americana" said
Mr.. Hoover, "and the whole world
have been watching anxiously the last
four months In the fear that demo
crafts America could not organize 70

has been confident that il could not be
done. Contrary proof is Immediately
at our door, and our people have ~.
ready demonstrated their ability %

rections and upon the mere word Of
inspiration aside from the remarkable

Of those who put their faith in cemoc
