I man could eat at a hotel in his home
town.
"of course" he added. 81 do not ad-
wise measures like that"
In England. he said, the authorities
limited the amount which might be
served and the price which could be
charged.
''This had the great advantage Of
reducing public entertainment" he
said, public extravaganza, etc, but
1t had a curious effect on food con-
sumption. for It was proved that when
the number of courses was eliminated
the people felt they must eat staples
that is more bread and meat, the
two things that we do not want to
consume-and It eliminated from the
menu all the frills of life, OF which
they had plenty"
The Remedy Suggested.
Mr.. Hoover's remedy for tendency
to waste follows:
by a sufficiently extensive or
ganization of committees in States,
counties, and townships, and by the
organization of women all over the
country, we might introduce into
every household q feeling of sacrifice
in the interests of the country in this
war.
I've ought to teach the women the
rudiments OF dietetics. Any tntelli-
gent woman can grasp them in an
hour. Things like proteins, fats. car
bohydrates, and calories should be
made as much household words as
peas and beans.
"Once the women get the theory Of
dietetics fully grasped, buying would
revolutionize itself.
Wheat in the majority, pork prod
ucts next, and then some subsidiary
articles are what our allies need most
In the war of foodstuffs."

is necessary.
Practically every household wastes
foodstuffs.
Women control 90 per cent OF the
food consumption and should intro
duce a spirit OF sacrifice for the good
of the country.
Women should learn the funda-
mentals Of dietetics.
Hotel waste is one Of the worst in
the country.
The fourth meaI"-the late supper
-is one of the worst pieces OF ex-
travagance in the country.
Voluntary suppression of overeat-
ing is the only solution of this eco
nomic crime
tions about waste" Hoover said, but
it is only by getting down to the
voluntary effort of every household
that this can be eliminated.
"Hotel waste is one of the worst.
1T is so much worse from the
special standpoint that Is per cent Of
our people duplicate the feeding IA
public places. A man has a home
where he has the machinery of feed
ing and then he goes to a public place
and duplicates the whole economic
machinery. In public places he eats
and destroys twice as much as he does
in his home.
Late supper an Extravaganoe.
'Then there is the question of the
fourth meal in the day. the late sup
per, which is one OF the worst pieces
OF extravaganza we have in this coun-
try. I do not propose any sumptuary
legislation in this situation-I think
II Is one Of the most hideous Of
things-but, on the other hand, II we
get at the food problem with suffi-
cient intensity, we ought to be able
to establish a public opinion against
those things that will in large degree
eliminate them. That is especially
true as a war measure, and 1t may
have a permanent value"
In Belgium. Mr.. Hoover said, the
authorities limited the amount Of
bread, eggs, etc, that the transient
public might obtain at hotels No
