this for themselves is out OF the

pearances there will be little left in
this fund after the men get through

FISH AND POULTRY
BUT NO BEEF ON
MENUS TUESDAYS

Fish and poultry will soon supplant
beef on washington's hotel menus
and restaurants on Tuesdays while
wheat will be banned on Wednesdays.
Hotel men will meet tomorrow after
noon at the New willard, and there 70
small doubt but that they will decide
to cooperate with the food adminis-
tration in adopting meAtless Tues
days and wheatless Wednesdays for
Washington, said Frank 8. Hight,
manager Of the New willard and
president ow the Hotel Mems Asso-
citation, today.
Not only will beef be barred from
the tables on Tuesdays. according to
the hrst request OF the administra-
tion. but mutton and pork and all
their products will be included.
Poultry and hsh, which are plentiful.
will reign supreme.
More Vegetables.
use more vegetables" is the an
swer to the question Of how the place
on the table vacated by meat Is to
be filled. Hotel cuisines are going
to show an outlay OF vegetables that
will make lovers OF plants proud OF
their tastes. More hsh dishes of the
extra tempting kind will also be
added Chefs will also be given an
opportunity to exercise their talents
on poultry and game as they have
never had before.
How bread Is to be produced with
out wheat Is a point that hotel diners
have the opportunity OF looking for
ward to seeing. King Corn will prob
ably be called strenuously into ac-
ton. Rye bread may also become
more delicate and toothsome.
Receives Message.
Mr.. Hight today received telegram
from John Nee Bowman, of New
York, who is managing the move
ment to have hotels throughout the
country adopt the meatless Tuesdays
and wheatless Wednesdays.
The message Is in part as follows:
THE Food Administration is today
sending out kilograms to chairman
of the food conservation boards suE-
gesting meatless instead OF beetless
and wheatless Wednesdays.
They believe that meatless Is prefer
able to beefless on account OF the
scarcity OF all meats-not only of
beef. II is important to also con-
serve pork and its products. Meat
less should be defned as including
pork, beef, mutton, and all their
products; but not poultry and hsh.
Many States are adopting this plan"
"As soon as the plan Is approved
at the meeting tomorrow, as 1t no
doubt will be, It will be put into
effect" said Mr.. Hight, who Is chair
man OF the District food conservation
committee.
