The latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble. Is to eat SPAR

If the kidneys are not in a healthy

Than Ours.
EXPLAINED BYLORD RHONDDA
Chief Aim 10 to Safeguard the Inter.
est Of Consumers First Of ALL
Imposes Little compul-
sorry Rationino.

WashingtOn.-Three general policies
n food saving are now being main
tanned by three great nations, the
United States, Great Britain and Ger
many.
The German idea is strict rationing
Of the consumer, and recently the Unit
ed States food administration issued
figures showing the present German
ration, which Is meager as to variety
and far below average dletetic re-
Quirements.
The American idea in food saving Is
to secure voluntary cooperation, as far
as possible, from both the public and
the producer and handlers of food ar
ticles.
The British idea lies between the
two. AS little compulsory ratiOning as
possible Is imposed upon the general
public. But there is farreaching and
rigid supervision Of all food articles
merchants, by the establishment Of
maximum prices, and after December
80 rationing cards are to be issued for
sugar.
What Lord Rhondda Says.
A statement just issued by Lord
Rhondda, the British food controller,
describing the British system Of food
control gives succinct and a clear
picture for comparison Of the food-sav-
ing measures which are now being fol-
lowed In the United States.
Lord Rhondda says:
''My aim is to safeguard the inter-
ests of the consumer, to do away with
profiteering altogether, and to prevent
excessive profits of any kind. The
framework of our machinery Is formed
on the civil service. They are the ad-
ministrators. but in all cases we Sc
cure the best available business men to
advise them, MS well MS u number of
expert committees dealing with almost
every food commodity. The policy is
to limit profits at every step from the
producer to the consumer, and at the
same time to regulate supply.
"a costings department under the
direction Of chartered accountants has
been set up. through which the profits
made by any manufacturer or retailer
Of food can be ascertained. The coun-
try has been divided into separate
areas, in each of which a leading firm

ties. Each division Is under the su-
perintendence of commissioner np-
pointed by the food controller. In
each of these divisions the borough,
urban or rural district councils. or
other local authorities. appoint local
food committees. with limited powers
and certain discretion, to carry out
such regulations as regards price and
distribution as may be issued from
headquarters.

tions and orders he may be struck on
