For the last four months he has been heeding the eloquent exhortations of practically every depart ment of the National Government to plant and grow the extra sup: plies of food upon which the nation’s enduring power in war must largely depend. The farmer has listened and done his part. The least he can expect now is that those same departinents of the Gov-| ernment will give him all possible aid in gathering and storing every pound of what he has produced. . This country faces a big efficiency test. Americans would make but « sorry and « shameful showing if, having grown the extra food they need, next month should find them lamenting over crops left rotting in the fields because they hadn’t had the foresight or the co-operative gumption to work out a full and systematic plan of harvest. one of f he fe POLICEMAN HOLMES. ONOR to the courage and devotion to duty shown by the negro policeman, Robert Holmes, who was shot to death early this morning while pursuing a burglar known to be and desperate. This city can well afford to pay a special tribute to the bravery of one of its negro guardians of public safety at a} moment when in other parts of the country white men who call themselves Americans have been ready to cast aside law and justice and plunge into vicious, insensate, murderous persecution of un-| offending citizens whose skina are black. New York has felt nothing but disgust for such brutal perver- sions of true Americanism. It’ has sympathized with the aroused | sentiment of law-abiding negroes in this city and lately viewed with understanding and approval the orderly demonstration by which the colored people of New York silently registered their protest. Policeman Holmes was shot this morning while faithfully pe forming his duty. q For the rest of the country that means that the City of New York trusted a negro with one of the most responsible functions of ite public service—that of public protection—and is proud to report } | Ten Commandments for Suffering Babies Kitty Failures Who Came Back By Albert Payson Terhune Gurren wit ee NO. 46.—HENRY M.
