Mr. Runciman in his speech an- nounced the imminent appointment of a food controller with full power over all departments concerned in food supplies, and immediate measures to rict the luxurious use of sugar, to prevent waste and the making of large profits in potatoes and milk, and to forbid the milling of pure white flour.
