WOULD AID IN
RESTORATION
OF SIBERIA
NKW YORK. Oct 11. Immediate
adoption of a constructive policy of
civic and economic assistance for the :
Russian people is recommended by the
American Russian chamber of com
merce* in a report submitted to civic,
trade and commercial organizations!
throughout the country. The chamber!
urges that a civic-economic commis

points for the Russians freed from
Kerman Bolshevik domination in their
efforts to restore normal conditions
of life t'nless order is restored, it is
1 said, it will be ditlieult for the masses
I of Russians to understand the neces

I eminent.
The report was prepared by the ex

which is made up of representative
Americans who have had long exper

has been approve! by the committee
on foreign relations of the I’nited

Food Club Work
Very Important
The tendency is apparent in some
communities to regard tin* l\ S. Food
c lub as of small importance. Some
women say that they are too busy
doing other kinds of war work to he
bothered with food clubs. This is the
wrong idea. There is no other work
so important as the food work. Let's
consider it for a moment. Suppose:
thi‘ food administration should fail to
secure the necessary distribution of
food. What would happen? Disaster!
would he the result. The armies of
America. Britain. France, Italy and
Belgium would collapse. The muni
tion workers in the same countries
would he unable to produce the ma
chinery of war. Tin* physicians and
nurses would he unable to care for
the sick and wounded. Tin* wounded
themselves would have less chance of
recovery. The tragedy of tin? Russian
collapse might easily happen in any
other land if tin* same conditions were
to prevail. Any one of these condi
tions would he sufficient to lose* the
war. Any of them or all of them,
^rould easily happen if tin* food admin
istration fell short of its task, (’an
you see now the relationship between
the F. S Food clubs and the war?
Book at it from another point of
view Vou are* knitting a sweater for
your son. your brother, your husband,
your lover. How would that sweater
feed over an empty stomach? Vou are
knitting socks for the soldiers. Socks
protect only the* foot, food strengthens
and warms the whole body. You ar*
spending three or four afternoons a |
week making clothes for tin* children
of Franc** and Belgium. Which would
make them happier, those new clothes
or three good meals a day? The sew
ing and knitting are* important, do 1
to it. hut don't get such a false sense 1
of proportion that you give* all your
time and attention to on** branch of
work and neglect that which is more*
important.
The U. S. Fooel clubs are the ap
proved means through which the fooel
administration for Alaska is trying to
meet its share of a tremendous re
spemsihility. Join a lT. S. Fooel club
In your neighborhood.
