county. The people are requested
to report to Mr.. Witherspoon or the
nearest district food administrator
the amount over and above 80 days
normal consumption now on hand
This does not mean" the food
administrator says, that your flour

shortage should become so acute,
the food administration will know
who has -four and who has not and
in this way prevent any real suffer
ing for flour"
Mr.. Witherspoon has addressed
the following letter to the district
food administrators:
II am just in receipt Of telegram
from Washington authorizing a
-four census. Therefore we want
each and every one having over
thirty days of -four on hand to re-
port same to the representative in
your school district. This does not
mean your -four will be confiscated.
but that if the shortage should be-
come so acute, the food administra-
tion will know who has -four and
who has not and in this way prevent
any real suffering for flour, or any
one going without entirely, while
your neighbor may have plenty.
You should by all means keep this
fiuor, and make no disposition of it
unless ordered by the food admin
istration. All persons making ac-
curate report, will be relieved from
charge of boarding or other unpa-
triotic act.
Just make written statement to
me or to agent in your district that

Washington has approved the plan
of allowing farmers and others who
have their own corn, to have same
ground into meal, get a certificate
from the miller that you had so
much meal ground, and the date.
and you can take this certificate and
get -four without having to buy
meal or other cereals. People who
have no corn, must live up to the
pound-for-pound rule, as il is alb
solutely necessary that all wheat
possible be saved to feed our ar
mics, who are fighting our battle for
liberty. Proper blanks will be sent
all millers as soon as possible"
