less DAYS and meatless weeks without
the irony of having them decreed by
law. Privation in meat. certainly has
not caused anything like the amount
of discomfort that privation in fat
causes. In Great Britain last winter,
before the ratiOning, we endured a
shortage of fat long enough to realize
what has been, or now is, the lot of
our enemies, and some neutrals-an
amount of fat in the diet which is in
sufficient, not only to make food pala-
table, but actually for health.
In Germany this has been felt very
severely. especially the want of bacon
and ham, as well as of fresh pork. Be
fore the war per cent of the meat
consumed in Germany was pork. Their
% million pigs have become five mil
lion. No pig meat has been obtain
able except at most exOrbitant illicit
prices. Ii is these prices which have
insidiOusly increased the depletion of
the stock; and meanwhile the shortage
of pigs has greatly increased the
slaughtering of cattle. In Germany
the whole fat ration has frequently of
late been no more than OF. per week
if no animal fat was available. and its
distribution has been most intermit-
tent; in Vienna the fat ration was still
lower. In Scandinavia there is no
pork or bacon on sale. Denmark is
the only one of the three countries
where an adequate ration OF butter
can be obtained Italy is feeling the
shortage of fat more than France:
butter and margarine are scarce there
and at very high prices, olive oil is not
plentiful and is ratiOned, and the cities
have recently been glad to get lit
tie American bacon, which is to them
much more a fat for cooking purposes
than a separate meat. Holland is
short of meat, short of butter, margar-
inc, and all fats; while it is trying
to CORY on with a low bread and in
sufficient potato ration.
Next we come to milk. the supply of
which is jeOpardized whenever prices
for butter and cheese are allowed to
rise considerably In many places
want of transport facilities has been
another handicap on the supply of
fresh milk So that when one begins
with a diminished number of cattle
badly fed. and encounters other diff
ficulties. there must be increasing anx-
iety about the amount of milk avail
able. Preferential treatment is neces-
sary almost everywhere, and also a
strict control over the alternative uses
of milk Germany, Austria. and even
Hungary may be said to have no reg
ular milk supply at all; Denmark.
Sweden, Switzerland and more recent
ly Norway and Holland, have had and
still have to cherish theirs most care
fully; while Italy is in great anxiety
about the supply for the cities during
the next few months. Switzerland

RULES OF WORK FOR WOMEN
Regulations Need for New Regime il
Italy Now.
BY HENRY WOOD
United Press STAFF Correspondent

tJnlteu freSS stan COrreSpOndent)
ROME. Dec. 10 Thy main Since
Italian women have entered various
occupations formerly closed to them,
the Italian government has undertak-
en- esta blishment of rules of work in
conformity with physical needs of
women.
The operating Of street cars is one
of the lines of work which in Italy.
as in nearly all of the other Allied
countries. has passed almost exclu-
sively itnO the hands of the women.
AS this gives indication of being a per-
manent employment for them. the
Italian government. through projects
of every province. has just issued a
circular establishing rules and condi-
tons under which women conductors
and mOtOrwOmen must work
The minimum age limit is fixed at
IS years for conductors and 20 years
for mOtOrwOmen. Both must pass
medical examinations 10 establish that
they have the physical strength and
qualities necessary for the work.
The mOtOrwomen are entitled to sit
down at their work wherever condi-
tions permit it, and to this end the
street car companies are required TO
furnish each with a stool.

THOSE RESOLUTIONS

4 certain percentage Of the Ameli-
can peopIe. when the New Year ap-
pears. seize upon it as an opportunity
TO swear off of all the mean things
they have done during the year be-
fore. With their right hand raised
and their fingers crOssed-they re-
solve to make the new year bristle
with achievements.
And then, two weeks later. the first
resolution is broken, to be followed
rapidly by all the others. Their high
resolve gives way to disgust, and
they quit trying to live up to their
resolutions. And yet, just as sure as
January l appears the following year,
they will draw up another list Cf per-
fectly good resolutions. The only
thing the matter with them is that
they are not kept.
Why depend upon one day in the
year TO make resolutions? When you
suddenly discover that there is part
of your daily life that needs changing
start in at once to correct the error
and to shape your habits anew. 1t
will take less will power TO carry out
your resolutions when you make them
promptly than when you wait until
the first day in the year. And thereby
resolutions will strengthen your life
instead of weakening it,

ASHES WOULD HELP

Numerous pedestrians of Columbia
are walking the streets. OF Columbia
these winter days. They prefer the
streets to the sidewalks because they
afford much better walking. Few of
the sidewalks in the residence dis

snow has worn down unevenIy and the
walks are urpleasantly rough as well
as slick.
Cleaning off the snow early would
have prevented the roughness Ashes
scattered over the sidewalks would
