It is. suggzested, . therefore, that federal reserve banks ask thei ‘member banks to continue to pay out federal reserve notes as long as they frain from sending notes to Washinz- ton for reissue unless they are so worn or soiled as to be actually unfit for circulation. The capacity of the bu- reau of engraving and printing is strained to the utmost, and the boar feels that the banks and the publi can render a public eervice by acting upon this suggestion. “Very trul yours, (Signed) “W.

Their need is greater today than it has been at any time since the war cloud first'broke. They still need men {but they must have food. We €an send millions, of mer, inexhaustible supplies of ammunition but they will be of no ‘avail’if-we fail to support the troops over there and ‘the. people behind them. If the food fails them, will fall. The whale country is asked today to “celebrate “National Win the War Day.” Its observance has a two-fold significance; ~It- may be observed as the first annivérsary of. our entry into the war, of .thanksgiving. for. 1l gress we havesmads it made a day upon which® we pledge and repledge our efforts thoughts and sacrifice that we may be able to ex- tend the Allies the fullest possible of measure of assistance. e know now that never have the Allied nations faced a grimmer strug- gle for existence than confronts them today. We know that only to Am- erica may they turn for assistance. So great has been the toll of the U- boat that every ship must be made Every .ves- sel must make the greatest possible number of trips, traveling to the near- est source of supply—America. If the source of supply fails them it means that their ships must go farther from ‘the scene-of conflict. It means’'a dim- unition of food, And that means an The strength of those people over there depends solely upon us. Starv- ing people cannot uphold their arm- ies. And the armies, even if they are fed, cannot be kept in the fleld if the know that privation’ and want The knowledge that: the wemfen -and children were starving would rob them of the spirit which- has maintained their determination to stand unyleld- ing before the onslaughts of Prossia. ‘We must face the fact that there is not in this country .enough feod to meet the actual necessities of Europe if we maintain our normal consump= tion. We must feed them but We have left in America only the amounts. which would normally be consumed before another harvest. We can ex- port only what we save. If our sav- ings are, small, derfed—the war will be lost. The greatest need in Europe. today is for wheat. Aslong ago.as the first of last December we had exported our entire wheat surplus. So grave has Dbecome the situation, that today lit is no exagzeration to declare that he ]who wastes a slice of -wheat bread is jactually endangering -our chances for vietory.
