REMEMBER THE DATEr-JULY 1.
The food control bill must be passed by July 1.
Remember the date—July 1.
It is the dead line set by Herbert C. Hoover for
the successful inauguration of food control, which
will help win the war-—and take the clutches of the
food pirates off the American kitchen.
The date is all important. 'Hie result of the
war hangs on control and distribution of this sum-
mer’s harvest—not the harvest of some other year.
Time is the essence of victory in this war. The
contest has settled into an endurance match in the
use of supplies.
Germany has already perfected her plans for
securing the utmost use of her coming harvest and ! the machine, the other to
eliminating the last item of waste. han<u« the bomba. America h»«

tress and social friction. SO speculators will hold
up her people for famine prices and waste their
energies in vain unrest over robberies.
The energies of all Germans are to be concen-
trated on the enemy without—not frittered away on
the enemy within.
On our side—congress if still talking while our
ajlies anxiously await the passage of the food control
bill to begin their work of co-operation with Hoover.
The speculators are making millions while the sen-
ate continues to talk. Already they have bought up
the entire output of canned goods for 1917—bought
it front the canners while the crops are still growing
in the fields, and the senate is still talking.
On wheat alone their rake-off amounts to $50,-
000,000 per month, while the senate continues to
talk.
And yet, on the roll call there probably will not
be 10 votes against the food bill. Another willful
little minority has set itself against the will of the
American people.
The new gag rule—passed after the willful 12
had shamed the nation—must be invoked to pass the
food bill July 1.
Senatorial courtesy and senatorial gab are cost-
ing us too much now—they cannot be permitted to
cost us the war.
Write or wire your senators and demand the
application of the cloture rule to pass the food bill
by July 1.
Remember the date—July 1.

NANNY-
THE WAR AND SUFFRAGE.
The Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage
is doing more to delay the national enfranchisement
of women in the United States than any other single
influence.
Altho ostensibly fighting for equal suffrage, the
Congressional Union is actually building higher each
day the barrier against its cause. All loyal friends
of suffrage should take a hand in curbing the mad
demonstrations of this organization, if suffrage is
not to be set back a dozen years in this country.
Heckling the president and picketing the white
house, objectionable and injurious to the cause as
they have been, have been largely overlooked and
excused on the ground of over zeal. But when the
Congressional Union, in a time of war, shouts to the
world that “President Wilson is deceiving Russia,”
th*t he is deliberately hindering, not helping, the
cause of democracy, there can be no such palliation
of the offense.
Had a mere man, or group of men. displayed the
banner upheld by these suffrage fanatics before the
gate of the white house on the occasion of the visit
of the Russian envoys, short shift would have been
made of them to jail. If the first bald statement on
the banner was not treason, it was at least food for
comfort to the kaiser and could have been uttered
by no loyal American.
This statement ran: “To the Russian Envoys.
President Wilson and Envoy Root are deceiving
Russia. They say: ‘We are a democracy. Help us
win a world war so democracy may survive.’
“We, the women of America, tell you that
America is not a democracy.”
And much more of the same sort, in which it
was declared that “President Wilson is the chief
opponent of national enfranchisement."
The Congressional Union should be made to
realize that war is the only important business of
this nation today and that every move by which it
attempts to hamper or embarrass the government
is disloyal and treasonable.
If the war is lost, suffrage will be lost to Am-
erican men as well as women. The Congressional
Union must learn that its ditty to suffrage today is
to show how it can help, not hinder, the administra-
tion.

EXILE—A JUST PUNISHMENT
To a man who loves this country and what it
stands for, there could be no more terrible sentence,
short of death itself, than to he ordered to leave it
and never return. But even to the man who does
not love this country and does not appreciate the
blessings of our liberty. a sentence of exile must be
a terrible thing, especially if he is to be thrown
back into Europe where the ordinary man has such
a struggle.
Louis Kramer of Xew York was sentenced the
other day to pay a very large fine and to serve a
term in the penitentiary for opposing the conscrip
tion laws and failing to register. But by far bis
worst punishment came in the last words pronounced
by bederal Judge Mayer. The court recommended
that the man be deported from this country upon the j
completion of his prison term.
If the punishment seems stern, it must be re- i
membered the offense was great. America in the i
past has opened her gates wide to all who would
enter. It made the privilege of citizenship compara- |
lively easy. In return, the least that could be ex-
pected was obedience to the laws of the land and!
loyal service in time of national trial and peril.
Kranter was willing to render neither obedience
nor service. He went further and sought to have
others behave in a treasonable way. He got exactly
what he deserved.
