U. S. MUST SUPPLY
FOOD FOR ALLIES
OR WARJS LOST
If America Fails We May as
. Well Surrender, . Says
New York Food ;
: Head. T:
"if we are to win the war, we must
get food to our boys in the trenchei
and to our allies. If we fail in our
efforts to supply the food, we might
as well quit, surrender and pull down
the flag. . That's the situation in a
nutshell," declared Frank G. Crowell,
bead of the United States food admin
istration in New York and vice presi
dent of the food administration grain
corporation, who is in, Omaha for
conference with Food Administration
Agent Neal and to address the Omaha
Grain exchange.
"It is up to the United States to win
the war," added Mr. Crowell, "nd it
is just as necessary for us to furnish
the foodstuffs as it is to furnish an
army. Our allies have reached the
stage where we must supply them
with food. To do this, we must send
onr grain to them.- ,
Waste Means Ruin. .
."We have got to conserve in every
way possible. To waste means more
than 1 can tell. . Every pound of food
stuff that we waste means that some
man, woman or child of our allies has
been deprived of just that much. j
'There is no trouble about getting
the supplies to Europe if they can
be transported to the seaboard and the
way things are now shaped up, I be
lieve that can be done.
'The ships of all the allied nations
have been pooled and it makes little
difference to what port the consign
ments go, or in what boat, they are
transported across the Atlantic' They
will reach destination and there be
distributed.
"It is imperative that we make our
shipments during March. Shipments
of foodstuffs must leave points of
origin not later than March IS. so
you see the time is short. Everything
that starts by that date will reach the
seaboard so that it will be afloat dur
ing March. This done, we have solved
the problem on which the government
is working. .

GIRL BURNED TO
DEATH WHEN HER
MOTHER IS AWAY
Little Olga Panker,.5 years old,
died at St Joseph hospital late Thurs
day night of burns suffered Thursday
afternoon while she and other chil
dren we're stuffing paper into a stove.
Mrs. Julia Panker, 1426 South
Fourteenth street, left the children in
the house while she went to a nearby
grocery store.
The little girl and her playmates
stuffed the stove with paper and
watched the flames shoot out of the
door.
A ton cue of flame shot .out and
caught the tot Her dress was burned
from her body. Neighbors, attracted
by her screams, rushed into the
house, wrapped her in blankets and
beat out the flames. . ' , ' j
She was terribly burned about the
limbs and the face.
effort to push corn forward, we are
just as anxious that all other classes
rt tnrAtn(f tnnvp W mllt have
the corn and at the same time we
must have the wheat, the oats and the
bacon, as well as rye and barley. In
fact we must send to Europe every
class of food that will stand shipping
and that enters into human consump-
tl0n ... T -J
"I am not an alarmist, but as I said
before, if we are going to. win this
war we have got to get busy and see
to it that our boys in Europe are fed
and at the same time it is up to us
to feed the men, women and children
of every country that is joined with
us in this war against autocracy."
Rotarians Busy With Plans
For "Jingling Bros. Circus"
v'Jingling Brothers" circus will give
its "stupendous performance" as a
Boy Scout benefit Friday night, March
8, at the Auditorium. M
This great circus is the concoction
of home talent monstrosities, espe
cially trained and drilled for the en
tertainment of the Merchants' Market
week visitors in Omaha March 7. The
original plan was that, the circus
should give one gigantic performance
for the merchants and then disband,
but the Boy' Scouts stepped forward
and drafted the service of the show
troop for Friday night. ,
The proceeds will be used in de
fraying some of the expenses of an
outdoor camp for the boys the com
ing summer. The Rotary club will
have charge of the benefit performance.
DEFIANCE TRUCK IS
BROUGHTOVERLAND
From Kansas City to Omaha
in Weather Twent; Below
Zero r Without a
Mishap.
The Defiance truck on display in
the Standard Motor Car company ex
hibit, was driven to Omaha overland
from the Kansas City Show. Messrs.
Steiner and Sawbrey, who drove the
car, stated that they experienced no
trouble during the entire trip, though
one day the thermometer registered
20 degrees below zerro. They left At
kinson, Kan., at 6 o'clock, where they
stayed over night They left Atkinson,
Tuesday morning and reached Auburn
by night and remained until Wednes
day morning, wnen tney completed
the trip to Omaha. No engine trouble
was experienced during the trip.
"The surprising thing to me about
the auto show is the interest dealers
are taking in the truck exhibit and
the laree number of orders they are
placing," said Carl Changstrom, pres
ident of the standard Motor com
pany, distributors of Defiance trucks.
"We have received several excep
tionally large dealers' contracts and
all seem confident that they will send
in repeat orders as soon as farm
work starts. The farmers will un
doubtedly be the big truck buyers
this year. 2 hey see the need and ad
vantage of using motor power on the
farm."
