IX ADDUKSSINtl the convention of Advertising Clubs fit. Sun Francisco, State Food Adininisl nitor Merritt stated that when Mr. Hoover cabled the late Lord Rlionddii, food administrator of (jpeat Britain that the last of the 1917 wheat harvest had been sent on January and that all the wheat that could be sent the allies between January and September must come from the savings of the. American people, that Lord K'hondda closed his desk, and said to his associates: "The war is over. We are beaten." The surplus of wheat which was shipped up to January 1, 1918, from the 1917 wheat harvest was 20,000,000 bush els. By the first of September, 1918, there will have been landed on the other side of tho Atlantic not less than 170, 000,000 bushels of wheat, or wheat products, and of this amount 1."jO,000,0()0 bushels is directly attributable to the voluntary savings of the people of America. This shows how the people have willingly and cheerful ly responded to Hoover's appeal. Tt is a demonstration of patriotism and an indicator of the spirit of the people to aid in winning the war. Tho. people, cut down the use of wheat, in many in stances going without it. ailfogcthcr. When t he food crisis became acute, the people of stale after state voluntarily re turned the wheat flour thev had on hand for shmnient abroad and their self denial made the continuation of the war possible by feeding the peonies and armies of our allies. Lord Rhondda did not know the American people did not; realize that the entire nation was united to win the war -rogardlc ss of the cost. He did not comprehend the vastness of our resources or realize that America produces ample food products to adequately feed the hundred mil lions or our population without, consuming a grain of wheat, if necessity requires it. rood is winning the war and the food that is winninir it, come.-! from the patriotic savings xi the American peo ple. Whenever the food engineers flv the danirer simml and request us to go slow on the danger curves of sugar, wneaiaiid meat, we must Heed the warning knowing that our self denial is feeding an ally and helping block the kaiser's program of conquest.
