More General Use
of Wheat Advised

Washington. Many persons have
not been able to understand why
after they have adapted themselves
to a food regime in which wheat
-four was reduced to the minimum,
and corn used freely in its stead, the
regulations should be suddenly re-
versed and the eating Of wheat in
preference to corn recommended.
The food administration, in reply to
many inquiries, has issued state
ment explaining that this, along with
many other changes and new adap-
tations is due to the situation
brought about by the armistice.
Last spring. the food administra-
ton, being anxious about the wheat
shortage, asked the public to re-
strict its consumption of wheat in
order o meet the needs of the Allies.
With q surplus of only 2O,0OO,OOO
bushels of wheat. the people Of, the
United States, through conservation,
enabled the food administration TO
shipl41. 600, 600 bushels of wheat. In
spite of this conversation, when the
1918 harvest was reached there was
less than a ten-day supply in Amer
lea.
When the new crop came in 1t
proved large, but not too large to
take care of the needs at that time.
The food administration did not
want to be caught another season
with n shortage of this most valu-
able foodstuff, and with the belief
that it was necessary not only to con-
tinue shipments of wheat to Europe,
but to build up a big reserve for the
1919 spring offensive. the food ad-
ministration continued TO ask the
people to use wheat sparingly.
The signing of the armistice
changed the situation as to wheat
imm ediately, as it did with all meas
ures taken with the needs of con-
tinuing war in view. Wheat sup
plies in distant countries were made
available by the ending Of the sub
marine menace, and the assurance OF
a good crop in 1919, undisturhed by
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-12-19

war, relieved the necessity of build
ing up as large reserve as was an
ticipated. 1t is probable that the
normal actual consumption of wheat
in the United States, implying elfmi-
nation of waste. n matter in which
Americans now have been thorough
ly schooled, will be permissible and
still allow people to keep the food
administrations pledge in the ship
ping of great quantities OF bread
stuffs to hungry Europe.
Last years situation, with fodder
grains plentiful and wheat scarce,
has been entirely reversed and the
necessity now points to more care
full use of the grains needed for ami
NAL feed and a freer use of wheat.

PROPOSALS CAME EN- MAsSE

Miss Helen Besler. daughter of the
president of the Central Railroad of
New Jersey, is probably the most
proposed to girl in France to-day. 1t
all came about because one night
in one of the American camps she
ran out of encores and sang a little
nursery song called IF No One Ever
Marries Me-" 1t goes like this:
Ii no one ever marries me-
And don't see why they should,
For nurse says l am not pretty,
And I'm seldom very good
The direful fate of the little girl
in.the song was to be to buy rab-
bit hutch and live all alone in lit
tie wood. But the American sol
diers saw no reason why Miss Besler
who is pretty and petite and typi-
cal American girl, should have
similar lot. After they had given
her the three cheers and a tiger
with which they usually thank the
Y. NJ. c. A. entertainers, they hest-
tated a moment and then added
purely personal message
''Barkis is willin' called the A. h.
as one man.
Since then the incident has been
repeated in every American camp
Miss Besler has visited. No censor
would allow an estimate of the num-
Der of proposals she received in that
way to pass.
