"Such action is a plain violation ??f

prosecute promptly any person guilty
of such conduct. The ? >tfleers and
agents of the department throughout
the country have been instrn<-ted to

The f ( m>< I situation wiik presented
by lli*ilK>rt ('. Hoover, who will Ik?

try. he said. fai** a war that probahly
will IiikI from two to tiv<? years, and
only by ih?> moat careful measures can
tl?e I'liltcd Status give tho Allies
enough foodstuffs to keep theiu in the
war with the cuiiNtauce demutided to
bring victory.
The Allies' grain immmIh this year,
Mr. Hoover said, will amount to about
one billion bushels. America and
<'ainula, with good ?<ops, ran furnish
sixty i*t cent of this without depriva
tlon, hut the All lex must have, he de
clared. at least eighty |>er cent of their
notfds to keep their clllciency at the
highest average.
"That imiius soiuc deprivation for
us.' mi id Mr. Hoover, "hut we must
till their needs."
Food prices in the I'nlted States are
too high, and If they continue at the
present level, lie said, wage re-adjust
incuts must come or the worklngmap
cannot live.
Secret a ry Lane set forth the pur
poses uf the I n11e<I States In entering
the war.
"We are light lug feudalism." he de
clared. "The German ruler Is willing
to go to any length to see a feudalis
ts system established. The tiend of
war himself would yot stand for what
the Germans have done In the last
two years, our interest as a Nation
and as a democratic people Is involved
in the war. The Power that would
do things that have been done would
it Knghiml were conquered, demand
Canada and we would live In haunt
ing fear the rest of our lives."
Secretary Maker declared the out
come of this war would show whether
the world really is progressing.
Kvery resource of the Allies, Mr
Itaker said, was near exhaustion when
tin* I nited States entered the war.
1 here is no way to establish perma
nent ]H?ace. lie declared, except
through exercise of the superior power
of the Fnited States.
Secreatry Daniels asked the editors
t<> 'get it. into the heart of business
men that it is a crime to make more
<>ut of the war than a normal ppotit."
The press he said. Is resj>onslble for
letting the i>eoplo know everything
about the Government, and the spirit
of the Administration "Is that com
ment and criticism are the very life
of a democracy."
The pnrjMxe of the expert limita
tions and trading with the enemy bills
were explains! by Secretary Kedfleld.
who said the measures were necessary
as a protction for the country's com
merce and resources.
The Government's attitude towards
lalxir was discussed by Secretarv Wil
^n. No changes in wage standards,
he said, would he attempted without
tiist gi\ing the (rovernmcnt ?> chance
to meditate between employers and
workers.
\N hat the General Munitions t

days tired only .Tj.ooo shells, while

Dr. Franklin II. Martin, of the Gen

Telephone Courtesy
The people who get the greatest
amount of good out of their telephone
are those who talk over it as though face
to face.
Courtesy smooths out difficulties and
promotes the promptest possible connec
tions.
The operators of the BELL System
are trained to be patient and polite under
all circumstances, but they will do better
work if they meet with patience and
politeness on the part of the; telephone
users. -j
The fact that you cannot see the
operator or the other party should not
cause you to overlook this. The best
results come through the practice of
mutual courtesy.
