Food conservation by the American
forces in France has been suggested
to Gen. Pershing by Secretary Baker.
The American commander is asked to
consider regulations governing the
purchase Of foods by soldiers from post
exchanges and from the French people
and to take up the subject Of avoiding
food wastes at the table.
The Secretary's cablegram reads:
"The Importance of the conservation
of food and the desirability Of avoid
ing waste among our military forces
and the ever increasing difficulty of
supplying food products to our allies.
as well as to our military forces and
civilian population, suggests the advis-
ability Of propaganda among your
forces in the matter of the necessity of
food conservation. Action looking to
a similar result has been taken up in
division camps, cantonments and war
prison camps in the United States.
"The idea suggests itself of issuing
instructions to your command looking
not only to the avoidance of waste in
messes. but also to possible regula-
ton of the sale of foodstuffs in post
exchanges, Y. NJ. C. AS, Knights of
Columbus, ETC.; also the advisability Of
