V "War Mothers," is the way theSe women are characterized, these women who will work during the week of October 21 to 28 to help in the pledge car camparm. Will Hasten Peace, Every woman wrto has a son in the army, navy or marine corps, or a son enrolled under the selective scrv iv law and subject to future call w ill be asked to join. The 'War Moth ers" are welcc.ned into the ranks of food admin i.tration workers. "L is peculiarly fitting," said Mr. Wattles, "that the mothers of the Ne braska men who are to fight the na tion's battles should enlist in this vitally essential service. They are sending tneir sons forth to endure the supreme test of citizenship. They, want their sons to return to them as soon as the peace of victory may be achieved. TJiey will hasten the com ing of that peace by the work they have, undertaken. "In no war in wh.ch the nation has engaged have the loyalty, devotion and sclf-sacrifict pf American women ever failed. 1rr no 'Other war )liave they had a grcate. jpportuuity for service than is ottered in the move ment for conservation pf the nation's food supply.
