Local Wholesale Concern
Takes Patriotic Action

In response to requests from the
Food Administration, the St. Mary
Wholesale Grocery Company, have
released 800 barrels of flour for the
use of the Government. The stock
on hand both here and the branch at
St. Martinsville, were thus affected
1t is the intention of the National Ad-
ministratlon to remove all wheat
flour for private consumption from
the market. Advices to that effect
were wired to State Administrator
Parker last week. 1t was suggested
that all industries having in their
possession flour stocks of any guam
tity be requested to turn them over
to the Government, to take care OF
the war necessity now existing. The
Immediate and complete response re-
ceived from business in general, was
source of great satisfaction to the
different administrators of the state.
The action of the Morgan City firm
is a striking example of the close and
sympathetic relation existing be-
tween big business and every depart
ment of Government war activity.
, It has been emphasized by the Ma
tional Food Administration that the
present wheat crisis is serious but it
can be successfully overcome if all
the instructions recently issued are
strictly adhered to by all-individ-
uals as we'll as business firms. Wheat
flour will be taken from the market
to as great an extent as possible.
Bakers only, will not be considered
as violators, if stock Of this food
supply is kept on hand. And they
will be obliged to obtain their flour
the best way they can, as retailers
and wholesalers viii eventually de-
plete their stocks. They will also be
expected to strictly observe the two
wheatless and for them, bakeless,
days-Monday and Wednesday.
To avoid confusion, it has been
suggested that dealers and individ-
uals in their relations with the foo'
administration, guide their actions
by orders coming from state, district,
parish or ward administrators, only.
Published comment intended to be
applied nationally and often times
colored to apply for consumption ov-
er a wide territory, should be ig-
nored.
The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1918-04-12

are included such activities as en-
listing nArses, doctors, and other
workers, and especially the consid-
erahle cost Of conducting . supply
business which has transactions Of
$4,000,000 to $5,000,00 per month.
Probably the actual overhead ex-
pense of management is less than 2
per cent, and, as stated above, not
one penny Of this comes out Of the
contributions for relief purposes.
From what l have said it is clear
that any statement to the effect that
"ninety cents cut Of every dollar
subscribed is used for administra-
tion," is wholly without foundation.
AS you suggest, such reports are
probably circulated with malic lous
intent and as a part Of the enemy
propaganda.
A complete report is in preparation
and will be published early in May
l will see that copy is sent to you,
and | will have additional copies sent
to any persons you may care to
name.
