By Jan. / It Is Probable That Every
Person in the Two Countries Will
Be Apportioned His Daily Meals

Washington, D. c., Dec. 4.-The
civil populations both Of Great Brit
air and France probably will be
placed under a direct rationing
schedule by Jan. 1.
This action will not mean that
their foUd situation is worse, or
threatens to be worse. than for the
paet year. 1t is simply precaution
to see that f0odstuffs are best used,
that better distribution is maintained
and that every person. rich or poor,
has the same opportunity to get his
fair share of the nations food sup
Ply,
TIE rationing of England anu
France promises to be one of the nrst
results of an inter-allied food survey
and discussion, under way for sew.
eral months.
| The supplies of England and
France, from their own crops, are
now definitely known; also the vol
umc Of imports necessary.
BY establishing the rationing sys-
tenn it will be possible for the allies
tc handle the food problem in \
scientific way. determine Just how
much of each food must be trans
ported from the United States and
Canada, and just how much shipping
must be set aside for its transporta'
ton.
The food requirements of both
France and England will be larger
than last year. England's reserves
have been reduced to an extent that
mere than offsets her increase in pro
duction. France must import two
million tons of cereals alone, hel
wheat crop this year having dropped
from 87,s30,000 hundred weight be
fore the war to 39.9O0.O00. Her pro
duction of cereals, potatoes and beet
dropped from $4,000, 900 hundred
weight in 1918 to about 100000, ,0O'
this year.
Only by rationing, it is believed
can equitable distribution be main
tained through the rest of the war
and the allies be able scientifically t
,allot shipping for food and for tn
other absolutely necessary war pur
, poses.

bit about what you would do il
you had a million dollars, and If you

out every point fine enough you will

would be DOING, practically tho same
thing that you are now. You would
not move away from the town you
now live in, though you would travel
some and take occasional trips; but
your home would be where ii is now.
You would not quit business entirely
for you would have to have some
thing to occupy your mind. II you
are newspaper man you would have
to have a newspaper somewhere, ami
If you will build your air castles

newspaper right in the same place
you have it now, and it would be
just about the same kind of paper
that you are running now.
