Br CLUVAS WILLIAMS , W1 OREGON, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1942 MEATLESS DAYS Special Menus Featured Substitutes For Pork, Beef and Mutton. Washington (U.R) New York's meatless Tuesday, Inaugurated recently, is nothing new; the whole country observed meat less Tuesday during the first World war. Records at National Archives in Washington show that chefs in hotels and dining cars, and housewives from coast to coast began featuring special war menus, using meat substitutes In place of pork, beef and mutton. Employee in eating places wore special buttons and sleeve emblems to remind customers of meatless Tuesday and to encour age the doctrine of the "clean plate" it was patriotic to eat everything. Then, at now. New York re ported Its inhabitants took meat less days with a smile. Food authorities In Kansas City re ported restaurants had trouble with patrons who ordered bacon snd ham for breakfast and steak for dinner. Ship Crews Ate Lett Pennsylvania proclaimed that beef could be served only at noon. Pork was not eaten on Saturday in some communities. Firemen in Washington started raising gardens to alleviate the meat shortage by growing some of their own meat . substitutes. Suppers were beefless on all railroads. Among the first to limit their consumption of meat were 600 merchant vessel crews, to prove even physical laborers could do without meat. During World war I meatless days were put in effect because the Allies and our armed forces were taking an ever larger per centage of our supply. In addi tion, there was so much conges tion in transportation that meat less days were a method to cut down freight. In four months the program was nation-wide, from October, 1917, to Febru ary, 1918; 140,000,000 pounds of beef were conserved, according to food administration records. In March, 1918, the meatless days were discontinued because a drought In the west made it necessary for cattlemen to sell their stock. There was also a large amount of lamb on the market. How Important the Hoover food administration considered food conservation is disclosed by some of their old slogans: "Food will help win the war' which has been revived by the'Department of Agriculture "Every hog is of greater value to winning the war than a shell." and "Serve by saving," "A Meatless Meal A Day" A home card of 1918 contain ed this message: "Hang this card in your kitchen. Problems: Allies soldiers. Solutions: Wheat, beef, pork, butter, sugar. Two wheatless days, Monday and Wednesday and meatless meal every day." Another card sent out by the food administration listed the following ways to serve by sav ing: Save wheat, meat, fats use COVERED NATION IN WORLD WAR I HAP HOPPER, Wathlngton Correspondent Left Hear It 'MB.

Wheat was even more a prob lem than meat because our allies and armed forces made a heavy drain on our wheat supply. The turpi ut of wheat during this war has made "wheatless days" problem of another era. Meatless days contributed to the growth of the school hot lunch program. Mothers ab sorbed in war work in 1917-18 planned the heavy meal at night, and had only light meal for children at noon. Schools be came aware of this fact, and iiu Massachusetts and New York a hot lunch program was insti tuted in some districts. Tuesdays were chosen as meatiest dayt because Tuesday is a mid-week day, half-week from Friday, which Is fish day among many Americans.
