These arc rulings of the War Industries Board. Thev are made to conserve labor, light and hr&A
resentative of the Red Cross. He ea!d
his interest n Indiana was aroused
w-hea Governor Goodrich asked hi"
to make a personal investigation and
report of the condition in which he
ound Indiana soldiers on the Bring
line in France.
Mr. Toner pointed out the wonder
- il achievements of Governor C -a-.
'cn in promoting the increased . o
tfuotion sid conservation of foods in
Indiana. He said Governor Goodrich
was the. first in the land to undertake
this important work. As a result of
this, he said, Indiana increased the
corn acreage in 191" by 600.000 acres,
the wheat acreage by 624.000 acres,
and in addition thereto, planted 500.
oon war gardens. Indiana, he said,
has lead all the states in the increased
production of pork.
The speaker called attention to
Governor Goodrich's order early in
1317. putting: a stop to unnecessary
building; and construction. This he
said, was an evidence of the Gover
nor's foresight with regard to the nation-wide
necessity at this time for
the conservation of labor and material.
Governor Goodrich, said .the speaker,
was the first in the country to under
take the regulation of fuel prices, and
the first to insist upon a national or
ganization to control production and
distribution. He said the administra
tion of the conscription law in Indiana
has been generously praised by federal
officials, and Justly so, because of the
efficiency with which the law has been
administered.
The work of the Indiana State Coun
cil of Defense, which, according- to Mr.
loner, was organized to include an
''final number of members from each of
the two leading political parties, was
highly praised.
"This is the essence of what we
denominate & 'coalition' government."
said Mr. Toner, "and such a govern
ment is represented completely and
successfully In our State Council of
Defense. Incidentally. I can't fail to
suggest that the thought, if adopted
more generally at Washington, would
inure greatly to the winning of the
war."
The speaker also praised the loyalty
and patriotism of labor in the war.
He called attention to the almost to
tal absence of strikes and lockouts in
Indiana, "in an era of rising prices
that have effected every clement of
living-." which he said, indicates an
"undivided support of the war and of
those charged with responsibility for
its execution."
Indiana was the first state to organ
ize conscripted men for military train
ing at iiome, and patriotic activity
back cf the lines, said Mr. Toner. It
load in the enlistment for war work
in the Boys' Working Reserve. It
was firft t organize patriotic propa
ganda on an effective basis and to es
tablish vocational schools for soldiers,
limited and special service men. It has
oversubscribed four Liberty Loans, ab
sorbing more than $335,000,000 in war
bonds. $50,000,000 in War Savings
stamps and subscribed $2,097,000 or i
more than doubled its quota to the
American Red Cross. Although the
cost of state government has increas
ed (normously during the past two
ears. said Mr. Toner, the results of
economies effected by Governor Good
rich in the administration of the state
government is shown in the treasury
balance. Mr. Toner said the- balance
in tha State Treasury on September
30, ISIS, was $1,550,404 86. more than
it was on September 30, 1916. at which
time the democratic party was in pow
er. "Of course," said the speaker,
"the background of Indiana's record
the state's achievement in this war
consists of the high-minded, all-pervading
and fixed devotion of our peo
ple to the safety and perpetuity of our
republican institution. Indiana is al
ways right, because her people are
right. Still, they had to be organized.
Action was what was needed. The
patriotism of our citizens, their in
dividual and undivided support of our
declaration of war would have been
futile, but for group action made pos
Indiana has been equally fortunate
sible by Jnteligent leadership. Indi
ana was able In the other great crisis
to produce a Morton. In this crisis,
in another Governor who has been wil
ling and able to lead."
It therefore behooves each of us to plan our shopping thoroughly.
