AMERICANS™ MUST . “HELP TO THE LIMIT Hoover Confident United:States' Home Folk Won't Be Food ¢ Slackers. © America’s allies in Europe are deny- ing themselves food in greater meas- ure than ever before. They will have to go on doing so, even if Herbert Hoover's promise to send across 17,- £50,000 tons of foed this year is car- ried out. Remembering what they-— @i}‘rance. Belgium, Italy and Great Brit- »;. ain—have endured in the four years % of war in pain and hunger, the call is to every man, woman and child in America to save food as never before —to eat enough to maintain health and strength, but to eat no more, and to waste™not a scrap either by over- eating or, by the garbage can route. The call is made ten times more im- perative when it is remembered that it is seconded with emphasis by our own soldier sons mnow fighting in France. Belgium and Italy. Here are the figures of the needs of Europe as compiled by Mr. Hoover, showing the amcunts of food America has promised to save for shipment to Europe by next fall: RS Must ship lncrcase year endinz this year July 1, over 1919. last year.

We can do - 0o less than fill the ships they send us. “Of our imports, we shall apparent- Iy have sufficient sugar to maintain the -present consumption and take care of the extra drain of the Allies from our markets, instead of compel- ling them to send their ships to the far Ilast. We can secure in sailing vessels the coffee we need, if no one makes an over-brew. Of our own products we must secure-a reduction in consumption and waste in the two great grovps of, first, breadstuifs; and second, meats and fats-—that is, in all bread and- cereals, beef, pork, poultry, dairy and vegetable-oil products. The average consumption of our people of breadstufis amounts to " about six pounds per week and of meats and fats- to four pounds a week for each person. A reductiou in (~unsuu\p('iun of less than one-half pound per week per person in each of these two great groups of foods would accomplish our purpose. -Wg wish to empha , how- «ever, that we do not want curtailment in the use of milk for children. “Some of our homes by reason of limited incomes cannot now provide more food than they should have to maintain health in the family. They cannot rightfully be asked to make ] the suggested reduction in consump- . tion. But the great majority of our Z “~homes can do more than suggested. \ This year as last I believe we can accomplish the necessary ends by vol- uftary action of our own people. The willingness to assume individual re- sponsibility in this matter by the vast majority is one of the gredtest proofs of the characier and idealism of our people, and 1 feel it .can be constantly relied upon.

New York.—The war has cleaned out the famous “Car Barn gang” of New York city, The lair of the noto- rious gangsters has become an almost forgotten place, and, while groups of fighters remain in the vicinity of First and Second avenues, they no longer are a source of terror to the police- men. The last outbreak came a few nights ago when officers were sum- moned to the noted rendezvous to quell a disturbance. While they were driving the disturbers of the peace to "There Ain't” Goin’ to Be No More Fightin®” cover three stalwart soldiers injected themselves into the® fray. “There ain’t goin’ to be no more fightin’ in this block,” one of the three soldiers said.as they stood facing the crowd gathering. “There ain’t no such thing as the ‘Car Barn gang’ any more. That stuff don’t go. -We'll give you a good cleanin’ up if you don’t stop cop fightin’. If you want to fight, join the army.” The soldiers, mopping the beads of perspiration from their brows, walked toward the policemen and prisoners. “This you, ‘Puggy’ McKay?” a po- liceman exelaimed, as he for the first time -observed the features of-one of the soldiers. “And T'l be blowed if you haven't got ‘Lefty’ O'Neill and ‘Rat Face’’ Wilson with you! The three of you are sergeants, 10o!” “Yes, we are through cop fightin',” Sergeant McKay said. “We belong to the government now, and that means we're for the law. We came back to the old neighborhood to look for-a couple of deserters and a few of the rats who are slackers. The new draft will get a good many of you fellows, and then we'll all be together; one hig gang.” The policemen were amazed at the transformation of “Lefty,” “Rat Face” and “Puggy.” Many a battle they had given the policemen when they of were members the “Car Barp gang.” Zro elleiler LOVE FOR ARMLESS MAN BRINGS WOMAN ARREST St. Louis, Mo.—Because she Toved Charles Roach, an’ arm- e man, Mrs. Teenie Hunter, ac ding to her story to aus thorities here, turned over to him $200 worth of Liberty hends and $100 worth of War Savings stamps which she found on the floor of an office in which she wis employed.
