This definitely is not necessary and should not be countenanced by any patriotic citizens. | For Normal Buying | Those attending this meeting |were handed a sheet containing a list of most of the essential food |supplies and they were asked to indicate on it how long their sup- | plies of the various items would Ilast under normal buying condi- |tions. This survey indicates that the supply of fresh fruits, meats, eggs, and butter will last about two weeks. Cheese will be available for two to four weeks and potatoes from four to eight weeks. Supplies of fresh green vegetables will be exhausted in a week, but it must be remembered that the above items are perishables and are or- ily purchased on a week ‘0 \-day basis.
