Res., 29F2 Phone 152 I 0 M The allies have made further and increased demands for breadstuffs, these enlarged demands being caused to some degree by shortage In arrivala from the Argentine. It Is, therefore, necessary for the Ü. 8. Food Adminis tration to urge a still further reduction in the consumption of bread and bread- stuffs generally If we are to meet our export necessities. The Food Admin istration has issued a statement ex plaining the situation In detail, partic- ularly the reasons which lead it, for the purpose of centering effort for the time being upon the cereal situation to relax temporarily the restrictions on meat consumption. Experience shows, this statement says, that the consumption of bread- stuffs is Intimately associated with the consumption of meat. For various reasons our supplies of meat for the next two or three months are consid erably enlarged, and we can supply the allies with all of the meat products which transportation facilities render possible and at the same time some what Increase our own consumption. In these circumstances the Food Ad ministration considers It wise to relax the voluntary restrictions on meat con sumption to some extent with a view to further decreasing bread consump- lion. Conservation of food must be ad- justed to meet necessities from time to time, for neither production, nor al lied demands are constant factors, nor can any of these factors be anticipated for long periods In advance in the dis turbed conditions in which we at pres sut live. While the world situation is not one that warrants any relaxation In the efforts to eliminate waste or to relax economy In food, the Adminis tration desires to secure better adjust ment In food balancea. So long as the present conditions continue the only special restrictions we ask are the beefless and porkless Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. A. V.
