COULD IT HAPPEN AGAIN?
Bcmbing does not seem to reduce
morale seriously.
It does reduce the number of
machines that will work, it does
raise havoc with gas lines, water
systems, electricity circuits, hous­
ing and all the other things peo­
ple live by and with. It often
destroys great supplies of food
and prevents any orderly distri­
bution of food stuffs. It halts

about 60 percent mash and 40 per

hens is to keep laying mash before

grains fed night and morninic.
‘ These are supplied at the rate of
eight to ten pounds in the evening
