HOOVER SAYS
WE MUST FEED
ENTIRE WORLD
The foil ■*winzg special message
frt in 1 ’tilled St it 1 Food Admnistra
tor Herbert Hoover was read in many
of the churches throughout the coun
try yesterday:
"Again in full confidence I call upon
the American prop1'* to set aside Sun
day. December 1. and the week fol
kwing. for the consideration of Amer
ica’s opportunity for renewed service
am! sacrifice.
"Uast summer, when the military
situation was acute, we assured tho
interallied fcol conference in Ijon
d< n that w hatever the war food pro
gram of the allies required we were
prepared to meet; that tin* conference
need not consider whether or not we
had the supplies- we were prepared
to find them. We pledged ourselves
by the voluntary economy of our pen
pi• to have the reserves in food to
supply all necessities. The ending of
the war does not release us from our
pledge. The same populations must
bn h d and until another summer has
p; -ad th'-y can not feed themselves

from our enemies All these con id
errtions mean that upwards of two
hundred million people. In addRion
tr. these we are already pledged to
serve, an* now looking to us in their
ini erv and famine Our appeal to
day is therefore larger than the for
mer appeal to the ‘war conscience* of
our people. Tin* new appeal is to the
'world conscience* which must he the
guiding inspiration of our future pro
gram.
“The President of the I'nited States
has asked me to take ( barge for this
government of this work; to perfect
and enlarge the arrangements for
foodstuffs to the populations of llel
gium and France now being released,
and to organize and determine the
need of provisions to the liberated
peoples of Southern Kurope to pre
vent such fichu/ le as has taken place
in Russia.
"The determinate factor for the sue
cess of such an enlarged appeal will
be the vivid consciousness of every
individual in eac h community of obli
gation and opportunity, it is that
common recognition of obligation that
we now wish to create Such an in
telligent 'world conscience' in the
American people must be the mailt
dependence of the stricken countries
of the world until normal conditions
are once more restored.
"America by her participation in
the war has accomplished her objec
tives of self-defense and of vindicat
ing the- efliciem y of a government in
which the people and the people only
are sovereign. She lias established
the foundation of government by the
people throughout the enemy conn
tries, and lids is the real bulwark of
world peace We have yet to build
on these inundations No govern
or nation can stand if its people tire
starving We must do our part if Ihe
world is not consumed in a flume of
anarchy.
"The American people in Ihis most
critical period of their history have
tlie opportunity to demonstrate not
only their ability to assist in estab
lishing peace1 on earth but also their
consecration by self-denial to the
cause of suffering humanity."

LONDON, Dec. 2. The after war
business problem receiving the most

issued by the American chamber of
commerce in London It adds: De

of control and distribution are being
made, but there does not yet appear
to be agreement on the general prin

powerful interests are urging immed

the formation of a world-control which
