rtXJD PLKIXJB CAMPAIGN
WILL START OCTOBER 21
T he war is toj be brought to every
ipse In the state of Washington.
T he week of October 21 to 28, by
special decree from Herbert C. Hoov
er United States Food Administra
te, from the capitol at Washington
city, is t0 be a special food conserva
tion week. All states in the Union
«11l be thoroughly canvassed, house
to house, by the various state or
ganizations. The* message is to be
carried direct to every one of the 22,
--000,000 homes in the United States.
The campaign would put every one
of the 22,000,000 homes on the
Hoover food conservation basis.
"Food will win the war" is to be
the battle cry of the nation for the
on e week, the slogan in all of the
48 state's that are to bear the brunt
of the war for democracy.
Nearly 2,000,000 women have al
ready taken the pledge to furnish the
food our allies and overseas armies
require and already they are visibly
Increasing the available supply. The
small' amount each individual is
asked to save through substitution
and avoidance of waste, when multi
plied by millions, becomes an effect
ive total. The whole problem will be
solved if the American people will
«at less of the foods which, because
of their concentrated nutritive, must
be sent abroad and more of the foods
of which there is abundance. The
foods that are to be saved are wheat,
pork, beef, dairy products and sugar.
Those that should be used generously
are fish, poultry, and vegetables.
Most of the states have already
completed their preliminary arrange
ments for securing the complete suc
cess of the effort within their bord
ers. The State of Washington has
been thoroughly organized by
Charles Hebbard. federal food ad
ministrator, who has opened offices
in the Columbia building. Spokane,
and lias named his committee that
will carry this campaign into every
city and every country district of
this state.
"The campaign in the State of
Washington is to be directed in each
county by the County Defense Coun
cil," said Mr. Hebbard yesterday, in
outlining his plans for the food drive
in the State of Washington. "They
will act, however, through the
schools, both in the city and country
districts.
"The quota set for Washington is
230,000 pledges, that is, a pledge
to live up to the Hoover Food Con
servation program from each of the
230,000 homes in the State of Wash
ington. This total Is now being ap
portioned among the counties ac
cording to the number of families in
each county.
"The plan in each county is to
distribute, in tin* various schools, ac
cording to the number of families
represented there, a pledge card, a
house card of instructions and a
home card for placing in the win
dows to advertise the fact that this
home is 'hooverizing.'

"Sunday, October 21. all churches

"Women's organisations and fed
erated clubs and boy outs will be
enlisted for an active part In the
final checking up the last few days
of the week."
A state executive committee of 30
members lias been appointed by Mr.
Hebbard to carry through this big
week's house to house campaign,
Mr. Hoover, in the following vig
orous statement, Inaugurates the
Food Pledge campaign:
"The week of October 2 Ist to 28th
has been selected- lor a nation-wide
campaign to complete the enroll
of our forces In conservation of our
foor supply. The harvest is now In
hand and we can measure the world's
resources. The available supplies of
this harvest are less than last year.
The demand upon us is greater than
last year, and from the last harvest
we exported more than we could
really afford. We can only meet the
call upon us next year by the savings
and by substitution of commodities
which can not he transported.
"The allies are o|r first line of
defense. They must be fed and food
will win the war. All Europe is em
rations or restricted supplies. Only
In our country is each one permitted
to judge for himself the duty he owes
his country in food consumption, al-
I though the world depends upon us to
guard and provide its food supply.
This is a duty of necessity, human
i ity and honor. As a free people we
j have elected to discharge this duty,
not under autocratic decree, but
without other restraint than the
guidance of individual conscience.
"On the success of this unpreced
ented adventure in democracy will
largely stake the issue of the war.
"We are asking every householder,
every hotel, restaurant and dealer in
foodstuff in the nation to become a
member of the food administration
for the conservation and to pledge
themselves to follow, in so far as cir
cumstances permit, the suggestions
thai will be- offered from time* to
time as to measures of food savings.
"I, therefore, appeal to the
churches and to the schools for their
assistance' in this crusade to all the
organizations for defense, local and
national; to all the agencies, com
mercial, SOCia' and civic, that they
join the administration in this work
for the fundamental safety of the
nation."
