INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. Sit is not
what you earn but what you save that
establishes your patriotic rating in
these war-times, according to DR.. II.
Z. Barnard, who represents Federal
Food Administrator Herbert C. Hoov-
er in Indiana. DR.. Barnard said here
today:
"A mans earning capacity is not OF
great interest to us in this time when
conservation is the watchword. 1t is
mis- saving capacity which rates him
as a desirable citizen, and this is even
more true Of the housewife in the
kitchen. Food saved means more to
the hungry French and Belgians than
money saved. The wheat we do not
eat will nourish them, but the money
we do not use will not help them.

flood of advice given them about saw

that the men have smokeless days
