In scores of Protestant churches

food conservation and others will read

who will be of the greatest service in
spreading the doctrine of food conser-

The general plan is for the food
conservation division to work in the
states under the leadership of trained
home ecotomic workers and to use the
existing machinery In the states to the
largest extent possible.
I'VE anticipate that the states will
handle this food problem through their
own institutions and resources. but that
we will be able to guide the plan SO
that the results will be of national and
international significance.
