Food savings of millions of Americans during our first year of war enabled this govern ment to send enormous food shipments abroad for our fighting forces and the Allied nations. Our savings in cereals—out of a short crop—amounted to 154,900,000 bushels; all of which was shipped to Europe. We increased our meat and fat shipments 844,600,000 pounds. This was America’s “box from home” to our army abroad and the civilians and military forces of the Allied nations. PROVED vi iiiii OF DEMOCRACY Voluntary Basis of Food Saving Showed Heart of America Beat True for Freedom. To the voluntary service and sacrl* flee of the American people must be attributed the continued health, strength and morale of the Allied ar mies and the civil populace. Upon this spirit of service nnd sac rifice will depend Europe's fate In the months to come. In the post year we have carried out an export program, the magnitude of which Is almost be yond comprehension. IJuf with the new demands that have come, with the liberation of nations freed from German oppression, our exports must be almost doubled. Instead of 11,820, 000 tons, we must ship twenty million tons of food to Europe In the coming year—as much as cun be pushed through our ports. If the Allies had not been fed by America, It would have been Impos sible for them to maintain their de ' feuse against Germany. Meeting this world need on a purely voluntary basis, the American people have conclusively proved that democ racy is n success ana that In time of need it will rise to Its own defense. If there were no other accomplish ment to Its credit the very fact that It has shown the strength of democracy has In Itself more than justified the existence of the Food Administration In the eyes of the world. Less than four months after the United States declared war the United States Food Administrator expressed, his determination to meet America's food problem on a basis of voluntary action nnd reiterated his confidence that awakened democracy would prove Irresistible. "Many thinking Americans," said Mr. Hoover, “and the whole world hnve been watching unxtously the last four months In the fear that demo cratic America could not organize to meet autocratic Germany. Germany has been confident that It could not be done. Contrary proof Is Immediately at our door, and our people hnve al ready demonstrated their ability to mobilize, organize, endure nnd prepare voluntarily and efficiently In many di rections and upon the mere word of Inspiration aside from the remnrkable assemblage of our Army and finances.'' The history of the Food Administra tion has clearly shown that the trust of those who put their faith In democ racy bus not been misplaced. ..o ONE SUFFERED HERE. The marvel of our voluntary food saving, now thut we are "getting re sults," Is that no one ever actually suffered any hardship from It; that we all are better In healtn and spirit and bettei satisfied with ourselves be cause of our friendly self-denial. Food control In America held the price of br dstuffs steady, prevented vicious speculation and extortion and preserved tranquillity at home. Food control made sufficiency from shortage, kept the rein on food prices, gnve the nation's full strength exer cise. Starvation by Germany challenged all the world; food conservation In Amerlcu answered the challenge. Food conservation In America has been the triumph of Individual devo tion to the national cause. AMERICAN SPIRIT RELIED ON TO WIN. In the light of succeeding events It Is Interesting to rtea 11 the confidence with which the United States Food Administrator viewed the gloomy out look In July of 1917, when this coun try had been In the war for less than four months nnd the Germans were steadily sending the western front nearer and nearer to Paris. “Even though the situation In Eu rope may be gloomy today,” he de clared In- a public statement, “no American who has knowledge of the results already obtained In every di rection need have one atom of fear that democracy will not defend Itself In these Uuitet) States.” + + + + + + + +■!• + + + +•!• + + + + + d- d d- DEMOCRACY VS.
