r AGE TWO
400,000,000 HUMAN BE
INGS SHORT OF FOOD
Portland. Ore., June 12. Federal
Food Administrator V. B. Aver, who
recently returned from a series of
conferences at Washington, n. C, di
rects attention to an excerpt from a
recent speech of Herbert i Hoover,
which Mr. Aver says, should impress
all who read it with the great ser
iousness of the world food shortage
and the ital necessity for the utmost
individual effort of everyone in the
Mving and production of all foods.
Mr. U.iover said:
"If you could stand in the middle
of Germany today and survey the
land to the borders of Europe you
vo'ild disciAir i;s whole population,
of 'i oiio. 000 human beings short)
of frod. Where Germany l as over-i
run ;t:- borders millions of people In
Poland. Finland, Serbia. Armenia and
Ruisia are actually dying of starva
tion and other millions are suffering
from under-nutrition. Still others ol,
these mi'.licns cutslde the German
lines, that is, our Allies and neutrals,
are living on the barest margins that ;
will support life and strength.
"This, the most appalling and
dreadful thing that has come to hu
manity since the dawn of civilization. I
is to me the outstanding creation of
German militarism. Yet the Ger
mans themselves are not the worst
sufferers: they are extorting at the
cannon's mouth the harvests and live
stock of the people they have over
run, leaving them in desolation. 1
am lonfineed that if the war were to
cease tomorrow, the toll of actual
dead from starvation and its attend
ant diseases within the German lines
would double or treble the five mil
lions or six millions of men w ho have
been actually killed by Germany and
her allies in arm. The ten millions
of people in Belgium and Northern
France should have all died of star
vation had it not been for the action
of the nations at war against Ger
many in the maintenance of these
people through the relief system. But
this is only one part of the whole
story of misery, for the sinking of the
world's shinring is reverberating pri
vation and famine in some direction
every day and into every corner of
the globe."

First Quality Has Put
Chandler in First Place
WHEN men talk now of fine cars selling at me
dium prices they speak first of the Chandler.
Because, for five years, the Chandler has been such
a good car, so well built, so dependable in its ser
vice on the road. And because now, so distinctly,
it offers extraordinary value.
The most distinguished feature of the Chandler
Six is its niarvelous motor Chandler-designed and
Chandler-built which, through five years of re
finement without radical changes, has been devel
oped to a point approximating perfection.
The life, pick-up, power and endurance of the
Chandler motor have been a revelation to thou
sands of experienced motorists.
The Chandler motor is mounted in a really great
chassis, and Chandler bodies offer an attractive
range of choice.

ual shipments may be made, however.

Mil. OTTO IS THANKFUL.
It is impossible tor me to express
In words the gratitude I feel towards
the men who came to my rescue In
the recent fire, and they no doubt are
satisfied In the consciousness of the
fact that they did their duty, but I
desire to make this feeble expression
of my thanks, for had they been a tew
seconds later I would not be here to
say this. I would like to take each
man by the hand and thank him per
sonally, as I certainly owe my life to
their prompt and brave action, but as
I am not acquainted with them all I
take this means of letting them know
my feelings. OSCAR R. OTTO. -
No Trouble at All.
The small boy stood at the garden
howled. A passing old lady, says the
howled. A passing aid lady, says the
Irish World, paused beside him.
"What's the matter, little man?"
she asked In a kindly voice.
"O-o-oh !" walled the youngster.
"Pa and ma won't take me to the
pictures tonight !"
"But don't make such a noise,"
said the dame, admonishing. "Do
they ever take you when you cry like
that?"
"Sometimes they do, an' sometimes
they d-d-on't,' bellowed the boy. "But
It ain't no trouble to yell !"
