Exports from this country since It
entered the war have kept starvation
from Allied Europe and have main
tained the health and strength of thone
who have been bearing the brunt of
ur battles, so that they could hold
out to victory. Now that hostilities
have ceased we must assume the add
ed burden of keeping starvation from
Increasing Its toll upon the millions
who have been liberated from tho
Prussinn yoke. Famine would undo
the work which has been accomplished
In freeing the world for democracy. No
stable government can be established
and maintained by a nation harassed
by hunger. A stnrvlng people turns
to rioting and anarchy. Food litis
jlven strength and courage to tho na
tions lighting for democracy j It mnst
now give the nations strength and
tranquillity to re-establish themselves
In freedom and democracy.
Without our help It 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 to the support of one
hundred end twenty million people
whose normal food supplies have been
cut off, whose production has fallen
almost to the vanishing point, whose
fields have been devastated hy Ger
many. The food exported frem the
United States In the past year ha
been sufficient to supply the complete
ration of twenty-twoinlltlo", people.
It la hard to grasp the magnitude
and significance of the assistance
i which has been lent the Allies by the
patriotic, voluntary service of the
American people. The food we sent
abroad last year would have been suf
ficient to feed one fifth of our popula
tion. And this was done In spite of
the fact that we entered the year with
short crops. Our surplus was practi
cally nothing. An overwhelming pro
portion of the fond that left tills coun
try lust yenr was saved out of the nor
mal homo consumption of our own
people.

Administration.
From Information received by the
U. S. Food Administration from the
principal grain growing states, It la
now possible to announce with fair ac-
curacy tho amount of wheat saved last
harvest by Improved methods ot han
dling. According to official cnlcula-
Hons, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 10,000,000 bushels of wheat
with corresponding savings of other
small grain harvested and threshed In
a similar manner. In addition,, other
states, though unable to furnish fig'
urea, reported greatly reduced harvest
losses.
The figure for wheat alone Is equiv
alent to seven one-pound loaves of
bread for every person In the United
States and represents food that form
erly wns either an absolute loss or
was recovered to only a slight extent
by poultry and livestock. Walls op
portunities In this branch of conserva
tion were large, the quantity of grain
recovered surpasses early expecta
tions. It Is noteworthy also that re
sults were secured principally through
voluntary co-operation.
No conservation measure of the
Food Administration, It Is declared.

by farmers and threshermen toward
reducing grain waste at Its source.
