WHY GREAT BRITAIN
DOES NOT T
SUPPLY OF BREAD

San Francisco, Cal, July 6.-All Of
the European belligerents have found
it necessary. to ration bread except
Great Britain. In answe to hundreds
Of inquiries as to why England ra-
lions sugar, beef, butter and other es-
sentials except bread, the United
States food administration today issu-
ed the following statement:
Great Britain suffers now from a
serious shortage of cereals as do all
other countries at war, but she prefers
to solve her bread problem in another
way. When the consumption of bread
is limited by law the main food of the
poorer classes is curtailed. The wealth.
Ter classes can supplement their bread
ration with other foods, but when the
supply Of bread to the poor is limited
they must go hungry. since they lack
the of purchasing expensive
articles of diet.
1.-THE British ministry of food be-
|lieves it more profitable, instead of
%rationing bread, to limit the use of
cereals for the feeding of domestic
animals, thus increasing the supply
available for human food.
|, 1.-THE new British bread order OF
1918, effective June /, continues the
prohibition against selling bread less
than 10 hours old, except when de-
livery is made to a sea-going vessel.
Bread can only be made in three
shapes, and weights are regulated by
law. No bread can be made or sold
which contains any fruit, dried or
otherwise; any eggs or egg product;
any butter, margarine or other fat
except that used for greasing pans;
any sugar, molasses or syrups, or any
milk or milk product than butter
milk.

COAL AND I1GHT'

London, July Coal and light
are to be rationed in England under
a new order effective July l.. IT.
The plan provides for the r%ationing
Of gas, electricity and coal OF a coal
consumption basis at the rate of three
and one-half tons Of coal for two
rooms in a dwelling house. For other
rooms a ton each is allowed. Beyond
that the consumer will not be allowed
to go, so that If he. is not economical
he may find himself without either
coal or gas before the year is up.
The new tea rationing regulation
provides for an allowance of two
ounces a week for each consumer,
which is estimated, to be equal to the
average pre-war consumption. =,
The ice cream restriction order has
been changed to permit the sale OF
water ices or ice buildings, provided
no#cream, milk or sugar is used in
their manufacture,
