WOMEN ASK FOR
RATIONING PLAN
American Women Volunteer to
Buy Fixed Amounts of Meat,
Bread Flour, Sugar
and Butter.
PLAN STARTED IN NEW YORK.
Idea Supplements U. s. Food AdmInls-
tratlon's New Homo Gard Now
In 100000 Homes.

The women of America, who are
anxious to do their great part in the
winning of the war, are now, as
whole, familiar with the most impor-
tant aspects Of food conservation. The
Home Gard, both In its original form
and In the revised edition for 1918,
which provides for two wheat3ess days,
one meatless day week, In addition
to wheatless meal every day, has been
placed by the Food Administration aft
er vigorous campaign In 100000
American homes. An Intelligent and
conscientious observance of the Homo
Cards requirements Is all the Food
Administration asks of the housewives
of the country.
The Food Administration has had a
great many requests, however, particu-
larly from the homes of the well-to-do,
that 1t should Issue worked out plan
for a voluntary system Of rationlng.
This desire for a voluntary ration
springs from two eauses-fIrst, be.
cause II Is far simpler for the house
wife to save food when she has con.
crete working plan by which to pro-
ceed, and, second, because the loyal
women OF America desire, unseIfshIy,
to put Themselves on the same basis
a the women Of the Allied countries.
The ration proposed by the Food Ad.
mlnlstratlon Is almost the same as
that adopted In England for voluntary
observance. All over the United King
dom, In hundreds Of houses there
hangs In the front window card with
the stirring pledge, AIN HONOR
BOUND WE ADOPT THE NATION
AL SCALE OF VOLUNTARY RA.
TIoNS."
The ration recommended by the
Food Administration, and adopted first
In New York city, whence the idea has
spread through the entire country, Is
the following;
Weekly
Allowance
Per Person.
Meat-Beef (fresh, snlted, tin
ned and hashed) mutton,
lamb and veal (mutton by
preference) .............. 2h lbs.
Butter ..................... n lb.
Cooking Fats margarine, lard,
lard substitutes, vegetable
oifs) .................. " lb.
Wheat Flour (for use In cook
Ing gravles, ETC., where
corn starch, cracker dust
or bread crumbs cannot be
substltuted) ........... " lb.
Victory Bread Containing at
least 20 per cent. Of a sub
stltute for wheat 1our) 80. tx lbs.
Sugar UncludIng all sugar
used on the table and in
cooking and all sweatmeats
and candles, but not that
used for canning and pre-
serVlng) ................. v lb.
The items listed above are the only
ones which are definitely limited. In
the case Of milk and cream, as much
may be used as necessary, and chill
dren, of course, must have their full
allowance Of whole milk. Fish and
poultry, any cereal other than wheat,
vegetables and fruits and cheese may
be used as freely as is desired.
The above ration is In no wise In
tended to supplant the Home Card,
but rather TO supplement It. 1t has
been published with the idea that II
will be a very real aid to the Amerl-
can woman In her splendid effort to
carry out the great food conservation
program.

DEPENDS MOSTLY
ON GUARD DUTY:
DAKOTAS FIRST

Washington, Nov. 16.-The war de-
partment has made no definite plans
lot the return of the American ex-
/ peditionary forces to the United
States. it was learned last night, and
u is not regarded as likely that the

Asked specifically If any of the
men could be expected home by
Christmas, Secretary Baker said he
did not know, adding that no esti-
mates Of the time required had been
made.
Depends on Guard Duty.
General Pershing, it is understood,
has been considering the question OF
getting the army back home, but it
is said that many factors in his plans
have not yet been decided. Among
these is the question of what proper
ton OF the guard duty In Europe the
American forces will assume. Pre-
surnably the war council, through it's
military advices at Versailles, is
working out this question with re-
gard to all the allied armies as well

| -4.3 StAIy~SENSn Transports
There are 81 transports flying the
American flag, Mr.. Hurley said, and
\ it is hoped that these, with German
and Austrian liners which he anti
cipates using temporarily, will suf-
| flee to bring American soldiers home
| as rapidly as the military authorities
desire. If their capacity proves in
adequate, he added, the shipping
board has 125 double deck cargo YES
sells, some of which can be transform
ed for transport work. He is reluc-
tant, however, to withdraw these
from freight service except in an
emergency.
Mr.. Hurley said he would take up
with the allied maritime transport
council in London, which would in
| turn confer with the German and
Austrian maritime authorities. the
question Of utilizing some Of the idle
| tonnage Of the central powers. There
were is liners at Hamburg and
Bremen, he stated, and 10 or Is in
Austrian ports, which could carry in
the aggregate 100000 men on each
voyage, to American ports, returning
with food or other necessary cargoes.
British transports, he stated which
carried so per cent of the American
troops bound overseas since the milf
| tary program was increased early
last summer, will be utilized to cons
vey British dominion and colonial
! troops back to their home countries.
Mr.. Hurley said that present plans
call for his return with Mr.. Hoover
before Christmas. They will sail on
the Olympic today, going first to
London for three days conference
with food and shipping officials.
From there they will go to Paris to
meet authorities Of the allied and
American governments in direct
touch with the rationing and shipping
situation on the contingent.
