Letting George Do 1t.

In the opinion Of the average for
eign country America is one vast hive
Of agricultural industry.
They seem TO think that all they
have TO do is to ask and we will hand
over the food.
America has been generous in the
past in dividing its food supply with
Europe, even when we had TO deny
ourselves TO do II. But the war is
over and war conditions and necessi-
ties no longer exist.
The American farmer is very short
Of help and crop outlooks are not Of
the best, according to published re-
ports.
Experts predict a shortage Of food
stuffs next winter. with the possibility
Of bread and soup lines in the cities
Of our own country.
II this should happen Europe can
not expect US to meekly hand over the
food we need TO sustain life among
our own people.
Exporting profteers would Of
course take advantage OF the situa-
ton and send food to Europe at
enormous gains to themselves. But
the public will not have il so. II
such is attempted the roar Of pro-
test will be long and deep and will en-
gulf any person who attempts to
starve American women and children
for the sake of selling to Europe at
great personal profit.
America asks neither aims nor
favors from any country.
We are ready TO relieve distress
across the water when conditions and
humanity permit. but we are not
willing to send our own people to bed
hungry in order 10 do il.
Europe can work and produce IL il
viii. II should quit bidding and
squabbling and cultivate that will.

peal strongly to Us, especially when
we are expected TO make ourselves a

Back To The Farm.

l. the tide beginning TO turn?
Young men in some Of our big cit
les are yearning for an opportunity 10
get onto the farms. and the press is
advising such a course.
The wild assininity and profligate
spendthrifery Of the cities is palling
upon them.
They prefer the freedom and great
er security Of country life. even II
the hours are a little longer and the
work a little harder.
They have come to realize that
their earnings in the city are eaten
up in the prohteering prices now be-
ing charged for everything they buy,
both essentials and Injuries.
They see nothing ahead Of them
but eeaseless repetition Of earning
il today and spending II tomorrow.
Having brains, they are beginning
10 employ them 20 advantage.
And being but a little cog in a big
weel in the cities, they would migrate
TO the country, where there Is room
and opportunity for all
A national campaign for repopulat.
ing the farms Of the country is one Of
the prime requisites for a return to
commercial stability.
II requires food 10 keep soul and
body together. and food can only be
produced where there are men TO do
the work.
