America Consumed 1900, 900 Bushels Monthly.
From Now Until Harvest Must Use
Only FL, 0 600.
RATION PER PERSON is Il POUNDS
OF WHEAT PRODUCTS WEEKLY
Military Necessity Calls for Greater Sacrifice Here-Allied War
Bread Must Be NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Soldiers and
Sailors to Have Full Allowance.

If we are to furnish the Allies with the necessary proper
ton of wheat to maintain their war bread from now until the
next harvest, and this is a military necessity, we must reduce
our monthly consumption to 81 1000, 900 bushels a month, az
against our normal consumption of about 42,000, 900 bushels,
or 30 per cent. of our normal consumption. This is the situa-
ton as set forth by the U. S. Food Administration at Washing
ton. Reserving a margin for distribution to the army and for
special cases, leaves for general consumption approximately
la pounds of wheat products weekly per person. The Food
Administrators statement continues: Many of our consumers
are dependent upon bakers bread. Such bread must be durable
and therefore, requires a larger proportion of wheat products
than cereal breads baked in the household. Our army and
navy require a full allowance. The wel[to-do in our population
can make greater sacrifices in the consumption of wheat
products than can the poor; In addition, our population in
the agricultural districts, where the other cereals are abun-
dant, are more skilled in the preparation of breads from these
other cereals than the crowded city and industrial populations.
With improved transportation conditions we now have avail
able a surplus of potatoes. We also have In the spring months
q surplus of milk, and we have ample corn and oats for human
consumption. The drain on rye and barley, as substitutes, has
already greatly exhausted the supply of these grains.
