Not only" this;! but_ the great army. ot loyal atriotic’ business men' ofthe--cointry—the men Who were. already bearing. ‘much of the war burden; have come smjl- l_nsls"- to the front and ‘shouldered this: new jburden willingly. . Of course more of less protests were to be expected, but these arose largely front ig- norance of the order or of the necessity which prompted it. - 3. In the main the response has been very satisfactory, and indications 1 g 1 famine that should become general, has now are that all fear of .8 fuel ! passed, at Teast for this ‘season. B The Monday c\oslps»order, together v{ith the previous five-day. closing | - order, marks the first real sacrifice. the.people of this country have beeni called: upon to make in the prosec\ltigg of the war. 'Its Teception and “the spirit in which it is being met i5'a barometer that correctly records the degree of patriotism of our people. That the response was so unani- mous: and #o hearty must be a cause for much satisfaction at Wna‘hlngtofn",y - and will go far to assure the administrator that the: people are’ with the: leadersin any miove that the latter deem'real necessary to winning the war, 7 g T - = : ' Experiences of the past few months: have demonstrated that the qual- ¢ A 5 = ’ = B S ity of American patriotism has in’ no sense deteriorated, nor has it become | == e # |1 b,ecausc vof some ‘ - : 3 ¢ or worded phrase or tess -universal. Its apparent absence can at any time be: traced: directly | to fgnorance of real conditions and’ needs. Given an incentive for saérj- k 1 . fice and & correct understanding of the conditions demanding it, no people nOwW: on earth are more ready to respond. ; 3 Lset us hope that further aacrifices will not be necessary. But should they become g0, rest uqured the people will face them with a smiling.com- ¢, posure and .a ready acquiescence. We have already given our sons (ourf most priceless possessions), and beside theése our money, our property, our| comfort and convenience are of small value. h f Never fear but the American people will measure up'to every demand. They ‘always haye; and there 18 as’yet no slgns of decadence.’ ‘We have torn the word ‘defeat’’. from ouf dictionary. § 3 » T e ———— e A - That seems like & pretty’ wise idea, creating a food committee for Be- i m‘ 4 = = : o midji.
