The inability'of the Food Admin istration to distribute the campaign materials lias made it necessary to delay the campion for furtlier con servation of fond. Just br soon as fin--. will be taken up. . j Simply because the quota of sugar j has been increased to four pounds i per person per month and the use of ! wheat flour without substitutes is now permitted, the people must not think that the need of conserving food is over. The need of saving food Is greater than ever. In ad dition to the needs of our allies, we must supply more food to the neutral countries as their stocks ot food have been depleted. We must send food to Poland and to the smaller Austrian states which Joined us in the closing months of I the war. Last year we sent over about twelve million tons of , food. This year twenty million tons wtll be needed. Hence, not an ounce of food should be wasted; no extrava gant use should be permitted; and every source of production should be utilized. Mr. Hoover requests that no extra meals be served; that all social functions at which it is plan ned to serve foods so arranged as to have the luncheon or dinner take the place of a regular meal, if pos sible. The American people, by an almost purely voluntary effort, have accomplished a saving in food which Is almost beyond belief, and there is no doubt as to their ability to do still more. With confidence the administration appeals to the people to save the hungry millions of the earth. Only an almost negligible minority of Xho whole people has failed to observe the food regulations cheer fully. It may be well to remind these that, while the restrictions are aot so close, the penalties have not been repealed. Some people object to saving food to feed Germany. It lms been ascertained that Germany will not require much food, their frantic appeals to the contrary not withstanding. They will soon be permitted to send their bwn ships to Argentine arid other neutral coun tries for food, but the distribution will be under the direction of Mr. Hoover's over-seas organization. The Turks are well provided with food. Hungary will be able to take care of herself. Only a small part of Austria outside of those portions we now count as allies must be supplied. Hence, no-one should fail to conserve because he tiljnks the food will go to the enemy. This is America's golden opportunity to show the world that a free people can do a bigger thing than an autocracy can accomplish by forced regulations. America will once more "go over the top."
