The American people will be asked | by the food administration to cut their consumption to make up the amount! to be exported. Unless they do the nation is threatened with a flour shortage in May before the new wheat crop is harvested in June. The food administration is consid-| ering legislation to make the saving of wheat compulsory and has approv- ed a bill drawn by Representative Leer, author of the food control bill, to enforce wheatless days. Proposals for mixed flours and for a form of war bread of mixed grains also are under consideration as possible measures to reduce the use of wheat flour. In preperation for dealing with the situation the food administration has decided to purchase from the mills 30 per cent of their output. Out of the flour purchased it will supply the al- lies ,the army and the navy will main- tain reserve stores to meet any local shortages that may arise. The ‘shortage of food abroad prob- atly will bring an early determination of @ policy respecting the balance to be maintained between food and troop shipments.
