ing the efforts or the association's
members to Influence their patrons
"us far as posslblo to cooperate with

tho adoption -of a wheatless diet
among tho people, and to press on
them tho necessity for reduction of
wheat consumption. The'text of the
resolution follows:

to use.moro than one-half pound of
wheat per person per week, nnd to
restrict sales to conform to this
schedule
"They also pledge themselves not
to sell other wheat bread than war
