»IUR DOINGS OF THE VAN LOONS : VES AND THAT CovERS ANY DAMAGE 0F OTHER PEOPLE'S PROIPERTY BY MY CAR DIESN'T T' — “Let Us Give Unto Them Our Daily Bread’’--Says Hoover in Message to the People of Minnesota Express- ing Gratitude and Encouragement Delivered by J. W. Hallowell, Representing Mr. Hoover at|. Meefing of Minnesota’s County Food Administrators. Mr. Hoover sends a message of gratitude and encouragement to Minnesota: Gratitude for the spirit 6f understanding and willing- ness to practice self-denial which the families and trades of this great state are exemplifying jn innumerable voluntary activities to conserve food for those who are fighting our battles abroad. There is much work still to be done in Minnesota to make the people as * a whole realize the grave necessity of food conservation in order that the ever increasing needs of our Allies and our own Army and Navy are to be satisfied and the Food Administration is confident that this work will be done both loyally and efficiently. - A message of encouragement is possible because Mr. Hoover is' able to announce that our recent exports to the Allies of pork products and beef are up to our promises, thus alleviating somewhat the anxiety and strain under which the Allies were laboring last | winter when the railroad. congestion in this country was the cause of our falling far behind the promised volume of exports. Exports of wheat are improving as conservation throughout the country increases. . A 4 During March, our exports to the Allies of wheat and other cereals aggregated 35,000,000 bushels, of which. about 10,500,000 bushels were wheat; beef 70,000,000 pounds and pork products the heretofore unheard of total; of approximately 300,000,000 pounds; the April record of exports was equally encouraging. What a God-send to France, England and Italy? This accom- plishment would have been impossible except for the voluntary co- operation of the people and food trades of this country. e With the continued stress of unprecedented warfare .broad and with the rapidly increasing numbers of our troops “over there,” the problem of feeding both our Allies and our own Army and Navy becomes more and more acute. This will require the continued loyalty of the American People in following the requests which the Food Administration may make from time to time. Until the next harvest, the cry of suffering France will be for wheat, wheat and more wheat. We should remember that we are sitting at a common table with tie Allies and that as there is not enough to go around, it is good manners to take a smaller portion. : We have the balance of food ; the Allies have the present balance of fighting strength. Food is fuel for fightcrs; that which we have and they need does not belong to us but to them and our own troops abroad. The Food Administration with the assistance of such ster- ling citizens as A.
