RtLING ON BEEF
Little Rock Ark

Little Rock, Ark, June 20 To County Food Administrators:
 Core spondenee that has reached tEis office indicates some Of OFT Coun- ty Fcod Administrators, in their pa t11otic endeavor to conserve beef. are placing certain restrictions on butch CT shops.
 We desire to suggest no request 2 made of butchers to keep d record 3i their sales to private families, for eie reason that it would work a great hardship cn the butchers and 1t Q same time would be most difficult n fact. 1t is our opinion that 10 oert4ia record of beef sales could be kept.
 It Is true that beef for private fa7at- lies is limited to one and one-quart4r pounds clear beef and one and one half pounds, including the bone. Fer person in the family per week.
 Any family that buys more than their allotment of beef is unpatrioac. Any butcher who knowingly sells more beef than family is entitled a IS doing his country an injustica. The family eating more than tasir allotment of beef is taking that lge- duct from the mouths of American sj dlers in France. They are taking it rom the men of the allied armie,, who have been fighting our battles for three long years. They are tahi.. { 1t from the people of the alliou la5..- tries, who have suffered as no other people have suffered in years. The question, then, for those who eat at home-and the question for those who eat at hotels. restaurants and other public eating places-is this: Knowing these conditions. do you want to eat beef when your coun- try needs it?
 Make the foregoing facts known to the people of your county, and I am sure their patriotism will be 100 per cent in this instance, the same as it has been in all other features that make for the winning of the war.
