Rationing is necessary — to see to it
that everyone gets an opportunity to

most popular foods, among them
foods that are vital for proper health.
Without rationing, it would always be a

No. 8: The Answer ...
No. I: The Answer...
We are producing more food than
ever before in history.
Despite shortcomings in manpower
and machinery and weather handicaps—
the American farmer is doing a miracu
lous job these days.
He broke the U.S. record in 1940
. . . beat that in ’41 and beat that too
in ’42. For 1943 he’s topping all
records again!

4: The Answer ...
I •
To be certain that the right food will al
ways be available at the right time, our
armed forces require at least a 90-day
supply for men quartered in this country
... a 9-month supply for each man
overseas.
No. 2: The Answer...
Despite record food production, we
can't have all we want of what we
want for the simple reason that THE
DEMAND FOR OUR FOOD FAR EX
CEEDS THE SUPPLY. That greatly
increased demand has been created by
(1) the needs of food for direct war pur
poses, (2) the tremendous boost in civil
ian purchasing power.
No. 5: The Answer...
Geographical position of the U.S. assures
speedy transportation to battle fronts.
Our space and soil enable us to provide
what other nations can’t.
It would be shortsighted and poor
strategy not to send food to our Allies
(the English and Russians). It is food
they sorely need to give them an extra
“fighting edge”. . . to help them knock
more of the enemy out of the war.

PLAY SQUARE WITH FOOD. Accept no

prices under any circumstances.
No. 9: The Answer ...
WE, THE AMERICAN CIVILIANS
annually waste almost enough food
to feed our armed forces at home and
abroad! The armed forces are working
to reduce food waste to an unprecedented
low, through better meal planning and
education. So can we at home.
