Coffee Campaign Stirs Britain.

Speaking of the portfolio of coffee
ads placed by the American commit
tee, Mr.. Brewer says: There is not
the least doubt that this will be OF
the greatest help to us in pushing
coffee here, and we shall make the
fullest use of it.
When tea was short here about a
year ago there was magnificent
opportunity for the trade to push
good coffee, but many did not. So
far as we are concerned we did, and
the result today, even with normal
supplies of tea, is that we are selling
more than double our pre-war guam
tity and we can see no reason why
that should not be doubled again.
There is no earthly reason why
people on this side should not drinl,

reasonable excuse for the same has
been offered by the war department.
