NO GRUMBLING AT PRVATIoN
Britishers Willing 20 Subslst on Short
Rations if That viii Help Win
the War for Liberty.

1t really isn't necessary to tell the
British people not TO waste food. There
is nothing eatable left on the average
plate when the meal is finished. Meals
are one interminahle round of fish
and eggs, fish and eggs. Eggs are found
disguised under all manner of names,
hut always there are eggs. not seven
times week, but almost q times "A
week, writes Chester NJ. Wright mem
her of the American Federation of
Labor mission to England
Meat is rationed by a end system
SO is sugar, Of when you may have
six ounces a week and no more. One
of the best hotels in London is serv-
ing butter or margarine only once
daily. Many hotels have none for
days at a time.
Desserts are thing of the past,
recorded in history but not among
the things eXtant. Milk is rationed.
Tea soon will be- Bread is ratioued.
Hotels will serve you with one brown
roll per meal. The average man would
be amazed at the British menu today,
but the British do not grumble. They
go on short rations knowing that it
must be done, and accept ii us part
of the war thai must be carried vic
FORWARDS.
Even If it were possible to break
the food restrictions the average Brit
Usher has not the slightest desire to
get more to eat than his neighbors.
Especially among the British workers
is there an obvious grim satisfaction
when members of the American labor
mission and speakers tell how ships
are being rushed to completion in 26
states, and how self-denial by the Brit
ish people in matters of food and luxu-
ries make each ton of maximum value
and effect in prosecuting the war to
finish.
The British workers realize that
more than half their food comes from
the United States.
THE less food the more troops" is
the slogan which appeals especially to
the Clyde ship builders. one of whom
said IF ships from the United
States are laden as far as possible with
soldiers and ammunition, then every
bolt we drive is as good as a rifle shot
against the Germans"
