Director Says Prohibition
VIII initiate Against Eff
cheney of Workers

London. May 17.-lnhucntial repre-
sensations have been made 10 the Min
ietrv Of Food that the continuation OF
brewing in Great Britain is likely 10
make 10 more difficult 20 get increased
exports Of cereals from America. Ken
nedy Jones, Director Of Food Economy.
gave The Associated Press an authori-
tative statement in regard 10 the re
strictions already imposed on brewing
and the complexities Of the problem.
lie said:
I'VE quite realize that misapprehen-
sion may exist in the United States re
Carding our beer consumption. That
is only natural We are daily receiv-
ing letters from numbers in this coun-
try who consider that they are absolved
from the necessity Of saving bread be
cause other people drink beer.
AS things stand. no more barley Will
be matted IN this country except a
small quantity for use as coloring mat
ter. The last barley was matted IN
February. Therefore. the only ques-
ton is. Would there be very valuable
saving in food by mixing the malt
which exists with flour and making II
into bread rather than by using it for
the brewing or beer? A strong body OF
scientific opinion holds that beer has
its food value Apart from that, it Is
a fact that only a small percentage of
malt can be mixed with flour in bread
making.
Unlike America, beer has been for
centuries part Of the daily diet Of
our working classes. A great number
Of men engaged in very heavy manual
labor as for example men working at
blast furnaces must drink consider
able malty. liquid This is not only a
practical fact; il is a scientific fact.
The bulk Of these men are in the habit
OF taking that liquid in the form Of
beer
IF il be found advisable TO stop
beer it would be simple common sense
10 allow the workers time TO adapt
themselves to the change gradually.
Also it is we'll TO bear in mind that if
the worker is not deriving part of his
energy. as has been his habit, from
beer. he may require more bread, so
that practically no actual saving Of
bread could be effected"

in many instances, were registered in

Their uncertainties affecting the status
Of American merchantmen.
Trading was dull, save for the first
hour, in which there was a moderate
turnover. Dealings took in a larger
number Of individual stocks than at
any recent session, these including nu-
merous semi-active or dormant special
ties remotely related to the war groups.
Leading rails averaged gains Of
20 ~ points, although advices from
principal transportation centres re-
ported a halt in freight traffic arising
from prevailing congestion. Shortage
of cars shows an increase over the
figures recently announced by the Amer
lean Railways Association.
Production at some of the Western
industrial centres is again threatened
by the coal shortage, but points near
er East are catching up with this han
dicap.
The advance, like that of last Satur-
day, resulted largely from the cover
ing of short contracts. This was es
pecially true of United States Steel
and allied shares, as we'll as metals,
although the latter were in demand on
the strength of trade conditions.
Sugars, feathers, fertilizers and In
