By Frod Lockley The creation of the food admlnlstra tion department 1 one of the most striking examples of patriotism that has occurred during- the war. Herbert Hoover was asked by President Wilson to take upon himself the work of food administration for 100,000,000 people In this country and the supplying of food to millions more In Kurope, The conservation of food supplies and their distribution has become more than a national problem, it Is International, for upon America's ability to supply food to our allies depends the fate of the war. Mr. Hoover consented to be come food administrator, provided that he could serve without pay and that the whole of the force under him, exclusive of clerical assistants, should be employed upon a volunteer basis. Able Man Toluateer Services President Wilson had implicit faith In Herbert Hoover's ability to admin ister this tremendous and Important task, for he had demonstrated, under the most trying circumstances, his ability, to feed starving Belgium. It speak well for the quality of Ameri can citizenship that the biggest men In every state have cheerfully and will ingly laid aside their own personal business to dsjjete their entire time and best efforts toward making the work of the food administration de . partment a success and mobilizing the tood saving forces of the nation. Oregon has won for herself the name of the "volunteer state," because she has led In almost every war time ac tivlty, and she Is proving no exception along the lines of food conservation The busiest men in every community are laying aside their personal tasks to devote their time and best efforts whole-heartedly toward making Ore gon's record, one of which we may all oc proud.

Speakers have been touring the state j for several weeks. County school su - perlntendents In almost every county have gone out to deliver the message personally to every teacher and pupil within their counties. Fraternal or ganisations, granges,, ministerial asso ciations, parent-teacher associations, women's clubs and a tiost of similar organisations have put their shoulders to the wheel to Impress upon -the housewives of Oregon the need for food saying. Plans for Fledge Card Week Pledge card week la from October 28 to November 4. Here are the points that the speakers are hammering homo In their talks over the state: Buy less, cook no more than is necessary, serve smaller portions, use locally produced ; supplies, buy home grown goods of your home merchants so as to lessen , the need of transportation, practice the gospel of the clean plate, do not eat between meals, watch out for waste In your own home and In your own community, give growing children plenty of plain food, eat all you need, but eat wisely and without waste. The following Is the pledge that the uuuacwive are asaea to sign: "I am glad to Join you in the service of food conservation for our nation and I here by accept membership in the United fctates food administration, pledging myseu to carry out the directions and advice of the food administrator In my home In so far aa my circumstances permit. (Nrasa rropagaad Active That Germany realizes the menace to Prussian autocracy If the Hoover anve Is successful Is seen in the fact that from pro-German propagandlng sources, all sorts of rumors and re . porta are being sent out. urging the housewife to sign no pledges and that ii tney economise in their eating It Imply means that waat they save will aier ds seised.

Do you realize that right now it is next to impossible to get any freight from Japan and on the shipments that do come through the rates are prohibitive? This shipment was long delayed so long, in fact, we'd given up expecting it. Otherwise, the freight alone would make the prices impossible. We got this because each year three or four houses in the United States are given the "factory ends" (that is, the extra pieces made to cover possible breakage) of complete lines of China at a price so low they can be sold at but a fraction of their real worth !
