INDIANAPOLIS. Aug 25-'Tt is
real patriotism when men get together
20 plan how thew can prevent waste
which means real profit 10 their in
dustry the bakers OF the country have
done this" declared Harry E. Bar
nard Indiana food and drug commits
sioner. today.
I'VE have been broad MASTERS be-
cause we have not realized how much
il costs to throw away the crusty
ends Of the loaf or the partly used
slices gathered from the table" Bar
nard said. The National Association
Of Master Bakers has just asked a
member Of domestic science experts
to estimate what this wastage of bread
and wheat has cost the country.
Miss Isabel Bevier the director Of
the Household Science Department at
the University OF Illinois. places the
estimate at two slices per day per
family.
Miss Abby Marlatt. head Of the
Home Economies Department at the
University of Wisconsin. believes that
the waste OF bread is comparatively
small.
Tt is my belief that on the con-
trary we have been extravagantly
wssteful. and 7 base my conclusions
upon a rather intimate study of the
garbage cans Ny estimate, which is
criticised as being much too high. Is
that prior to the present campaign
for food conservation two slices out
Of every loaf went to waste. 1t may
be that the heels got hard and mouldy
and were thrown away. 1t may be
that the half-eaten pieces at the table
were discarded. or that the children
carelessly ate the soft centers of the
slice and left the crusts. And to this
possible source Of loss should be
added all the bread fed to cats and
dogs and other family pets. every
ounce Of which Is a direct and definite
drain upon our National bread basket"

yua can take II from me that we're
in 10 see the complete finish If We
could get all that we are fighting for
tomorrow. l bet there isn't a man
that wouldn'- welcome peace. But
the Germans are still pretty strong.
and If we stopped now. we'd have
the same game IN a few years time.
I've get kiddies and 1 don't want to
think that they might haze to 60

up. Though I say the Germans are
stlIl strong. they're weakcninE or
I'm -ery mucl mistaken. They are
practically hopeless at attacking:
