â€"~THE BEAVER THEATRE "In order to feed . Great Britain, France and other European Allies and the men at the front, it will require 1,105,000,000 bushels of wheat. The Allied European countries can proâ€" «uce but 645,000,000 bushels. That means that there must come from comewhereâ€"â€"i?»the soldiers are not to go hungry, if the people at home are mot to starveâ€"460,000,000 bushels of wheat. Are there 460,000,000 bushels in reach anywhere? Yes! The amount of wheat available in the #riendly countries is 460,000,000â€" but where is that wheat situated ? If Britâ€" ain and her Allies were prepared to @raw from India, the Argentine, Ausâ€" tralia and from the United States and Canada as well, they could get their 460,000,000 bushelsâ€"but from _ the Â¥nited States and Canada, upon the estimates of toâ€"day there would be forthcoming just 300,000,000 bushels, so that if normal consumption goes en in these countries there would be for Great Britain and the Allies just 300,000,000 bushels in all, and the soldiers at the front fighting our batâ€" Price 15c and 10c.

Hanna addressed a meeting in Convocation Mall, Toronto, on Monday night, in which the following important and startling information was given to the public: Made‘gy Hon. W. J.

Therefore, we must ask more of those who will, and, with the aid of the women of the Dominion, imbued with the spirit of this convention, I venture to say that we can save the situation, save the war and meet our men in the face when they come back â€"we hope with victory won. Faith in Canada ; "I am not overâ€"stating facts," said Mr. Hauna, and in proof of this proâ€" ceeded to read the most recent reâ€" marks of Lloyd George on the food situation, indicating his faith in the United States and Canada to fulfil their pledges in the matter of food production." ‘"If we, by being sparing in our use of wheat and bacon, can release these for shipment to the men at the front, is there anyone in this audience toâ€" night who could say that one of them will go hungry if we can help it? (Apâ€" plause). Is there one in this house toâ€" night or the friend of anyone here, either at home or elsewhere, who has sacrificed a moment‘s comfort in the way of food to this end? I venture to say â€" not one! The sacrifice in wheat alone on this continent by everyone in the United States and Canada would put down wheat consumption by oneâ€" sixth.â€" We would practically have 160,000,000 to add to the 300,000,000 bushels. Is there anyone who would not cut down oneâ€"sixth? Some will tles would be 160,000,000 bushels short of what would be necessary to feed them. If we produce and ship simply from the United States and Canada the Allies will be 160,000,000 bushels short if we indulge in normal conâ€" sumption on this side of the Atlantic and we cannot draw on India, Australâ€" ia, the Argentine, etc. There isn‘t the tonnage. pendent on half the normal tonâ€" nage for their supplies. They canâ€" not sepd that tonnage to distant lands for food supply. The result is that Great Britain and her Alâ€" lies are dependent upon the Unitâ€" ed States and Canada if the soldâ€" iers at the front and the people at ~home are not to‘go hungry. They are ‘dependent upon the United States and Canada if the allied armies are not to retire in defeat because there is not food to mainâ€" tain them in the battles they have fought so well down to this moâ€" ment. "The condition, which was bad at the first of the year, has grown worse from month to month. Britâ€" "A SQUARE DEAL" ..... c CGREAT SECRET!‘ Chapter 10. Rushman & Bayne.

Mr. Hanna stated that $65,â€" 000,000 worth of food was being wastâ€" ed in the garbage cans of Canada anâ€" nually and that $50,000,000 of that might be saved with proper superviâ€" sion by the women of the Dominion. He concludedâ€"by paying tribute to the work of the Organization of Resources Committee. The Bacon Question‘ ‘"A special commission has been appointed to go into the question of bacon, and they will make a report that will stand fire and criticism from any quarter. In respect to that kind of thing, I have gone into this quesâ€" tion sufficiently far to feel this way: ‘Know all the facts before you judge where it be bread or bacon or no matâ€" ter what it may be.‘" (Applause). "Fish? We have all heard of fish, but we are going to hear more about t. ‘"What is the primary duty of the Food Controller in Canada?" aposâ€" trophied Mr. Hanna. ‘"It is to see that the men at the front shall not suffer for want of food. We are not going to hesitate about checking prices where necesasry. (Applause). We will put the spoke in where it belongs. * Toâ€"day there are places in Canada where bread is selling at 7 1â€"2 cents a pound, but there are other places where it is selling at 12 and 14 cents a pound, with no possible exâ€" cuse. We shall take up the question of prices. â€"Mr. Hanna pointed out that Lloyd George‘s faith in Canada and the United States was behind his confiâ€" dent assurance in the House of Comâ€" mons that ‘Britain‘s food supply of 1917 and 1918 had been "secured subâ€" ject to reasonable economy." Canaâ€" dians had proved their energy, their indomitable strength, at St. Julien, at Vimy Ridge, at home. Having given their promise to back the Allies with food they would do it. "Lord Rhondda‘s letter leaves no doubt that the people of Engâ€" land are relying on us," he said, after reading it aloud. "It leaves no doubt as to what our duty is. We are in a splendid position to make the necessary answer to the call that has been given us if we will only do it, and the women of Canada can contribute . more to that than the rest of the populaâ€" tion combined. I‘d much prefer to be in the position of having no crop at all than that I should have a good crop and fail to use it in succoring our brothers overseas.
