"So far, no Kansas troops have been included in the divisions soon to he returned from the war zone," said Mr. Capper. "If we are to feed 200.000,000 Europeans the coming year until stricken Europe can get on its feet, it makes food production in the United States as imperative as were munitions in the dark days of tlie war. "It seems apparent that by meeting this food emergency abroad, we shall not simply prevent widespread suffering and loss of life, but forestall anarchy and speed up the readjustment of Europe on which so largely depends good times, instead of hard times here at home.

Therefore, I voice the great hope of thousands of firesides all over the land, that the demobilizing of our overseas' forces be conducted as rapidly as possible." In every -address delivered, by Mr. Capper during the war and few men were more active than he, in the various war drives he paid the highest possible tribute to the Kansas soldiers. In writing Col.
