CHIEF APPEAL TO MEN
WHO LIVE ON THE > A
Mr. E. H. Anil, Herald and News,
Newberry, S. C.
Dear Mr. Aull:
In this ereat time, when every citi
zen must do his part, the president
fcas made his chief appeal to the meii
who live on the land. He is right
in doing so, for the safety of our
country just now is in the hands of
our farmers. What I mean is noi
merely our safety and the safety or,
our allies in the matter of food. I
mean that the safety jof the Unitea
States against foreign invasion Jiangs
on the decision of the farmers of the
forty-eight States. j
The two great weapons in this war
are arms and starvation. The war
against German arms will be won or;
lost in France?the war against star- '
vation will be won or lost in Amen-1
ca. The kaiser cannot whip the
French and English armies and the
English navy while England has foot i
But it is still possible that the Ger-,
man submarine may be aDie to Keep
food enough from reaching England
to starve her into submission.
-11 1 ' "Mil tho
II Ifle SUUUJttiiues mu, tut iii ov j
item in the kaiser s terms of peacy
"will the English fleet. With tlie Eng
lish fleet in his possession, the kalsei ,
"will be master of the world.
What will happen to us then? Ev-j
ery man who stops to think knows
the answer. 'We shall have money,
fond Tahnr land?everything that Is
desirable in the world except the
power to protect what we have. Ex
perts estimate it will take us nine
months to get ready to meet a Ger
man army of even 150,000 men, with
modernartillery. Under such clr- j
cumstances, would the Germans treaij
us better than they have already |
v treated Belgium and France?
Even if the armies of our allied!
should crush the German military j
power this summer, before the short-!
age of food can reach the point or I
want, the world would still need vast!
? quantities of American food. But it J
they do not, only one course can make
us safe, and that is to grow food en
v ""? forme fr?r mirselves and
vugu
our allies, and to put ships enough j
on the sea to carry the food, in spite!
of the submarines, to the men wlw>j
are fighting our fight.
If the war lasts beyond this sum
mer, it will be the American farmer <
who will win or loose the war, whoi
will overcome militarism and auto-!
cracy, or allow them to spread ana j
control the world, ourselves inclua-!
ed.
This is no fanciful picture, but \
sober fact. Many a man will maKej
Jight of it until he comes to think jt;
over, but I venture to say that few |
x x *. Titt off nr no TAf*11 I '
'win treat it ngimji aiv?i
thought. It is no more impossible
than the great war itself appeared
to be, only a few days before "it be
gan.
It is true that we can greatly in
crease the available food supply oui
of grain now used in making liquors,
and by reducing household waste.
But when these two things are done,
and done thoroughly, they will not
fee enough. The final decision w!li
still rest in tne nanas 01 uie mtn
who raise our food in the first place.
The clear duty of the nation is to
guarantee the farmers a fair price
for their crops when grown, and a
reasonable supply of labor at harvest.
The clear duty of the farmer is to
raise food enough to wtn this war for
democracy against kaiserism.
No such resronsibility has even
rested on any class of men since the j
world beean a? rests today on tne]
farmers of America.
Sincerely yours,
tjinoru rjucuvt.

More than one million tons of this

He asserted that since the initia

the British government had been in

is considering the Hoke Smith reso-1
lution to authorize the interstate com- j

this increase laid as a tax upon all!

Washington, Apr. 29.?American
forces, a real American army, on the
j battlefield in France in two months,
' - - ' - ? r.^
I lighting side Dy siae wuu rreucn
men?that is what Marshal Joffre,
hero of the Marne. came to America
to ask.
I The French soldier placed one hana
upon his heart, his face smiling, his
i eye serious, and told newspapermen
i for the first time today his definite
object in coming to America as u
member of the French mission. He
said:
"Vranfp -nrhi^h has lone recosmized
the valor of the American soldier,
cherishes the confident hope that the
flag of the United States will soon De
unfurled on our firing line." he sakt.
The hero of the Marne made his
statements to a group of newspaper
men in an interview granted by him
at the t?m;-;orary home of the Frencn
mission here today.
Marshal Joffre's address was sent
to the state department to be passed
upon by the censors. The text as
given out there follows:
"The very cordial welcome given
me by the city of Washington and trie,
expressions of sympathy which reacii
ed me from States and cities througn-j
out the United States have moved!
me deeply, since they are a homage
paid to the whole French army whicn
I represent here.
More TigOr. |
"The heroism and resolution of the
soldiers of France indeed deserve all
the affection the United States nas
shown them. After having in a su- j
preme effort defeated and thrown
back a barbarous enemy, the Frencn :
army has untiringly labored to in- j
crease ana peneui ius cmvicu^.. ,
now in the third year of the war it is'
attacking the enemy with greater vig- j
or and material force than ever be-|
fore. ' I
"Side by side with it ana animated j
by no less heroic spirits stands the'
British army whose formation anaj
development will even retain the aa-j
miration of the world. The Germans
have realized its wonderful growtn.!
Every encounter has made th.em feel:
thg increasing menace of its strengtn.
The contempt they pretend to feel for
it in the early days of the war has
gradually- become a dread more open-j
ly avowed each day.
'"Led by its illustrious president, j
the United States has entered into:
this war. By the side of France in the '
defense of the ideals of mankind the
place of America is marked.
"Prance, which has long recogniz
ed the valor of the American soldier,
cherishes the confident hope that the!
flag of the United States will soon be;
unfurled on our fighting line. This is 1
what Germany , dreads.

noblewoman, of revolutionary tenden-i

fight for her release.
Late tonight the systery deepened j
when it was learned that the society (
leaders about two weeks ago request- j
ed the removal of their names from
the list of sponsors for the noblewo

were Mrs. John Hays Hammond, Mrs.

say was that she had "found out

president, relieved from tlie burden or
power, will come among us bearing
tho caintA nf thp. remiblir of the Unit

foundations from end to end shall be

"It is with unspeakable emotion
that we cross the threshold of this
legislative palace, where prudence
and boldness meet, and that I for the
first time in the annals of America,
though a foreigner, speak in this hall
which only a few days since resound
ed with the words of virile force.
"You have set all the democracies
of the world tne mosi masnniuem
example. As soon as the common
i peril was made manifest to you, with
simplicity and within a few short
days you voted a formidable war
credit and proclaimed that a formid
able army was to be raised. President
Wilson's commentary on his act,
which you made yours, remains in the
history of free peoples the weighti
est of lessons.
Hear Humanity's Cry.
- "Doubtless you were resolved to
avenge the insult offered your flag
but it will be your honor in history
that you also hear the cry of hu
manity, and invoked against autoc
racy the rights of democracies. And
I can only wonder as I speak, what.,
if they still have any power to think,
are the thoughts of the autocrats
who, three years ago against us, three
months ago against you, unchained
this conflict.
"Ah! 'Doubtless they said among
themselves that a democracy is aTJ
ideal governmsnt; that it showers re
forms among mankind, and yet now
we see the French, republic, which is
fighting in defense of its territory and
the liberty of nations, opposing the
avalanche let loose by Prussian mili
tarism, the union of all its children
who are still capable of striking
manv a weizhtv blow.
"And now we see England, far re
moved -like you from conscription,
who has also, by virtue of a discipline
all accept, raised from her soil
millions of fighting men. And we
see other natiorn accomplishing the
same act, and that liberty not only

Great Task in Future.
"Together we will rarry on that
struggle; and when by force we have
la?t. impressed military victory,
our labors will not be concluded.
Our task will be, I quote the noble
-words of President Wilson, to or
ganize the society of nations. I well
know that the jibes of our enemies
who have never seen before anything
but horizons of carnage will never
cease to jeer at so noble a dream.
Such has always been the fate of
id pas at. their birth: and if thinkers
and men of action had allowed them
selves to be discouraged by skeptics
mankind would still be in its in
fancy, and we should still be slaves."
Late this afternoon the French
men were the centre of a demonstra
