LACK OF BREAD DEFEATS
THE ITALIANS IN BATTLE.

Columbia, Mo-, Jan. Last sum-
mer, just when Gen. Cadorna's army
seemed on the point of breaking
thru the Teutonic lines, Italy ran
short of wheat. In September the
bread ration of the Italian soldier
had to be cut from $50 to 600 grams.
The next month the Austro-German
army attacked, and the Italian line
crumpled.
1t was to prevent just such contin-
gencies as the cutting of the Italian
ration that the United States Food
Administration was created by Con-
gress last August. People of Mis-
souri, and the whole United States
have been asked to conserve wheat,
beef, sugar, and fats that the sup
plies to the army in Europe may not
have to be curtailed.
Every American has been asked
by Mr.. Hoover to eat each day one
ounce less than he usually eats.
Those who do so will still receive
three-fourths of their normal con-
sumption of sugar. The average En-
glishman is getting only a little more
than one-fourth as much sugar as he
usually eats. An Englishman nor
mally consumes SO 1-3 pounds of
sugar a year to the Americans 80
pounds. The French are down to an
annual ration of Is pounds and the
Italians to 12.
During the Civil War in the U. s.
there was plenty of sugar in the
world. There were no submarines to
cut off the supplies. Yet the whole
sale price rose from a fraction
over cents a pound to 80 cents, and
the retail prices rose to S5 and 40
cents a pound.
Four hundred thousand tons Of
sugar have been put into candy ev-
cry year by American confectioners.
Recently the candymakers were cut
down to 80 per cent of their normal
requirements of sugar. The money
value of sugar saved by this one act
alone is enormous.
