A wartime appeal from Cimzen Sapier No 258 13th District National Draft Army urges readers to supply food clothing and weapons for troops. It emphasizes resolve, sacrifice, and homeland support as the nation faces ongoing conflict.
A Philadelphia Record reader from Bloomersburg Pa rivets attention with an open letter praising The Record and its editor for pro German propaganda aims during 1918. The author compliments editorials, mocks Wilson opposition, cites Garfield fuel policies, and urges continuing agitation to mobilize workers. He warns about mentioning extreme cold weather in the discourse.
A reader cites German ambassador Bernstorff remarks and criticizes U S officials for their handling of wartime diplomacy. The letter argues transportation issues, suggests harsher punishment for disloyalty, and warns against drafting farm workers, citing tax collection gaps as justification for tax and value concerns.
Clarence Ousley, assistant secretary of agriculture, urges the South to boost food production or risk privation and burden the war effort. He cites views from 48 agricultural colleges and county agents, warning that with 40 million in nonproductive war roles, overall production may not meet necessary demands. England, France and Italy depend on sustained supplies, having endured rationing for years.
A wartime appeal stresses hunger as enemy number one and urges Southern farmers to prioritize self sufficiency through gardens, dairy, poultry, and crops like corn and oats. Secretary McAdoo warns transportation limits may hinder food distribution, calling for patriotic farming to avert famine at home and abroad.
