HEBBiRO TELLS why We
SEND WHEAT TC EUROPE
Cereal Bread Aliies ..ic
ISiDg

No question is more frequently
asked than why We send wheat to
Europe and stint our own people. The
first answer says Charles Hebberd,
state food administrator, is that we
send wheat to furnish a foundation
for the mixed cereal bread that the
Allies have eaten for three years and
half and not to supply them with
a straight wheat bread. We are now
eating Victory bread, bread that
calls for only 20 per cent wheat sub
stitute, while Europe since the out
break of the war has eaten a war
bread which contains from 25 to so
per cent substitute. They are asking
us for wheat enough to make this
war bread.
Wheat -four is the only known
foundation for a bakery loaf. Corn
meal and buckwheat can be used in
making cornbread and batter cakes
but these breads cannot be looked on
as bakery products. as they will not
stand "a hours handling between the
oven and the table. ~
American women who do their own
baking can make good use of corn
meal, rice and oatmeal, but wherever
women work in factories or long
hours in the field. whether in America
or Europe. bakery bread must be
within their reach.
