HE Food Proclamation issued by the President last Saturday is an urgent appeal for a 30 per cent. reduction in the consump- tion of wheat and wheat products and for yet stricter elimina- tion of all forms of food waste in the United States. Not a word of grumbling will be heard from any 100 per cent. ‘American against either this appeal or the rnles by which Food Ad-| ministrator Hoover aims to secure the necessary saving | As to the imperative need of greater food economy in this | re is no ashy eonntry t! low of doubt or question, Emphasize the vastness of the Nation’s food resources. Stretch tts potential productivity to the utmost. There still remain the pressing needs of its Allies—needs toward meeting which it has! pledged ite best efforts—needs constantly increasing at a rate certain to tax and even overtax its power to aid. | Lor? Rhondda, the British Food Controller, takes no pains to} Giagnies the seriousness of the food situation for the Allies in his | meesayo to the Food Administration at Washington: | “Unies you are able to send the Allies at least 76,090,000 viels of wheat over and above what you have exported up to Jan. 1, and in addition to the total exportable surplus trom Canada, I cannot take the responsibility of assuring our people that there will be food enough to win the war.” Here is reminder of an obligation and a duty to which all good) Americans will instantly and cheerfully respond. The Food Admin-| istrator points the way: Beginning to-day: Two wheatless days each week—-Monday | and Wednesday. One wheatless meal each day. Bake or buy bread which contains not less than 20 per cent. 1s other than wheat. ef oerea Get to know and ask for it as Vic- | tory Bread. So far as may be, at home and elsewhere, ent | wholesome substitutes for wheat bread, | On Tuesday, “meatless” day, eat no hog, beef cattle or sheep products. On Saturday, “porkless” day, no pork, bacon, ham, lard or pork products, fresh or preserved. On other days, use | mutton and lamb rather than beef or pork. | For the enforcement of these rules the country has, ae Adminis: | trator Hoover says, but one police—the American woman, She will not fail either in example or insistence, There is no privation in such food saving. So far there is only economy, care and self-restraint, resulting in a diet guaranteed to} ; - make any normal human being feel the fitter. | Every American who thus saves helps to keep up the strength of the Nation’s allies until it can strike its hardest to relieve them. No loyal family in the United States needs stronger reason for} heeding the President’s appeal and complying at once with the new!
