Food Saving a War Necessity.

4. Morgan, federal food administrator
OF Tennessee, ito put over this food
drive within the period prescribed as
IL is to put over any other Of the many
war drives. Food saving is not only a
war necessity, but even should peace
come the situation will not 10 any
wise be changed, unless to emphasize
the importance OF saving. We will in
fact have to feed more people from the
food savings Of America when the war

are starving now Will then have access

foods largely, but this year we must

one food for another, simply changing
our Diet, will not save the fifty per
cent more food that we have promised
Europe during tire coming year than
we shipped during the past year. A
program OF actual, definite, concrete
saving only will get us the near eigh-

humanity's sacred name we must fur.
