"ie railroads have brought these to
xe ftea board, every possible cubic
' of seagoing freighters Is needed
t rarry them abroad for the use of
.jar army and the use of our allies.

Bng that It has any personal up

I'ood Administrator Mays we Must
Cut Down on Meat us Well
A Wheat
How about your meat ration? The
Food Administration wishes to Jog
your memory In case you have for
gotten that you should now he ou a
meat ration of not more than two
pounds per person per week.
"We have abolished all our meat
less and even our porkless days,"
says Assistant federal nbd Admin
i itrator W. K, Newell, "but this was
on tha distinct condition Hint we cut
our consumption of meat to two
pounds per peron per week, If we
are to avoid the re-estiibllshnieiit or
meatless days wt must now eat more
flak and vc gelnbles and go can em
all the inials. Tills Is because our
incut reserve is getting low. For u
time, because of lack ol ships to send
the mint overse-as, uml hceiiuse our
food animals were moving to the
markets In lo-uvy volume, our meal
n serve accumulated; thut wus why
the meatless days were declared of
by the Food Administration. Now
conditions are changing. The foo'
animals, with grazing for feed, arc
not moving so rapidly to the mar
kets, and we are getting more ships
for the export of meat. 8o our re
serve Is geltlug low, Wo must build
U up. Kllmlnnte your steaks am'
roasts and help pile up the meat re
eerre for our armies and our Allies
This should be easy for everyoue at
this time of year, with plenty of fresh
vegetables and a wide variety of fish
Your physician will tell you It will
also be good for your health.
Hecause of these good things you
can save meat without any real sacri
flee. Let no m c fall to do his or Ml
hare towards building up our aa
ti'iiii'l 'ii at r 'serve. H you are no'
ell -nil', on tli,- oil If la I 2 pounds pel
we i ' ration, correct this at once foi
it is very important."
