SAY PUBLIC IS SHOWING
DISPOSITION TO ASSIST
Bakers Declare Housewives Are
Placing Orders With Retailers to
Conserve Bread Supply.

Washington bakers today stated the
public is showing every disposition TO
cooperate with their wartime meas,
ure to eliminate the return OF s'ale
bread.
Bakers stated that housewives have
placed orders with retailers, as re-
uuested, and as result the . per cent
or more loaves baked here which came
back to the bakers as stale Will De
conserved.
Upon the heels of this move the
bakers will undertake another effort at
wartime economy by materially re
ducing the sizes and kinds OF BREADS
rolls and cakes they make.
gram of retrenchment in this respect
was discussed, and a meeting VIII ne
held this week, probably on Wednes-
day. following which definite an
nouncement will be made.
Variety Of Baked Goods Reduced.
1t was pointed out that material saw
ing could be effected by such Eauc-
ton in the many kinds of bread now
turned out. The first effect of this saw
ing would be to reduce operating ex-
penses. accrufng from extra pans and
bakers: the second would be to the re-
taller in lessening the kinds of bread
he must handle, the process of delivery
would be simplified for the driver, and
all these measures will work to the
conservation of foodstuffs and the ulti-
mate benefit Of the consumer.
Some Of the bakeries already have
reduced the forms in which they make
-four products. The largest variety in
Washington was that of one of the
city's biggest bakeries. which put OUT
1O7 kinds OF bread and rolls alone;
This bakery already has eliminated
about forty of these varieties and
hopes to cut the number down to fif-
teen Many of the bakeries make from
eight to a dozen kinds of bread and
from six to a dozen varieties of rolls
The plan under consideration Is TO
make two or three kinds of bread loaf
and three or four kinds of rolls.
Mr.. Hoover Is Gratified.
Both the movements against returns
of stale" bread and against the In
creasing number of kinds OF bread
baked originated with Herbert C.
Hoover in conference with the bakers
Qualification was expressed at the
office of Mr.. Hoover at the manner IN
which both millers and bakers are CO.
operating with the efforts to eliminate
waste in the use of flour.
The standard toward which wash
inEton bakers are working. 1t was
stated today by one of the largest
bakers in the city. is five varieties
of bread and rolls for home sales
These are to be two sizes of white
bread. one graham and one rye. and
one kind Of rolls. Hotels and restau-
rants hitherto have demanded many
varieties and kinds of bread and rolls.
and it is hoped to bring this number
down to about six kinds Of bread and
three or four kinds of rolls.
