SEIZURE OF HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE


The government has never consid-
cred any plan OF SELLING foodstuffs

In spite OF this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly 10 issue official de.
malls Of rumors that the government
Intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put up In American
homes
These rumors were originated pnrfly
by pro.Gcrman propngandlsts and part
Iy by consclcncelcss 'grnlters, who
sought TO profit through buying from
mlslnformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving pnctlced on greater
scale than ever before In the nations
history. officials in Washington believe.
Ard they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that foods so SAVED are
theirs. and theirs alone.
