QUEEN MARY
INTERESTED
IN THE POOR
SENDS FOR CABINET MINISTER
TO VIEW INTEREST IN THE

REGULATIONS.

London, De 81, Correspondence OF

in view of her interest in the question
Of food supply recently summoned
Walter Runciman president of the
Board Of Trade. to an audience at
buckingham Palace. 1t is very un-
usual for the Queen to send for a
cabinet minister
The conference was long one. the
Queen being particularly interested
in definite details as to how the pro

women and women belonging to the
so.called professional classes. From
the very beginning of the war, the
Queen has shown particular interest
in the position of middle-class women,
women Of education and breeding,
who have moved for years in one
groove. and who were no longer young
enough to be able to benefit by new
openings when their old occupations
or incomes gradually became insuffi-
cient
The subject of food economy. also
is one that has engaged the heartiest
attention of the Queen. The Queen
is herself remarkably good house
keeper writes one OF the newspapers
in commenting on the audience with
Mr.. Runciman. and if she belonged
to the middle classes she would be
eXtolled as a wonder among her peers.
Years ago. before the war with Ger
many was thought of, she used to be
quoted as an example of thrifty man
agement and sound common sense
In those days, thrifty management
and sound common sense where
neither popular nor fashionable. and
il was considered the smart thing to
be wasteful and frivolous, and com
pictely ignorant OF what went on in
