BRITISH FOOD MINISTRY
SHOWED PROFIT BALANCE

London.a(B BY MaiI The ministry
of food ceased. to exist March 31st,
but though many attacks have been
made, on the government for the con-
tinuance of control so long after the
war, the critics have not been slow to
praise the excellent work done by this
department.
IS Due largely to the energy of the
late Lord sRhondda, the food ministry
proved to be the greatest trading or
ganization which had ever existed in
any country. In its five years exist
ence, the ministry handled goods to
the enormous value of 100000, 600
pounds sterling, exclusive of wheat
and sugar, which, although nominally
under the ministry's control, operated
under separate royal commissions.
The working expenses amounted to
but Is shillings and pence per hun
dred pounds worth Of food bought
and sold, and clear profit of roughly
one million pounds was made for the
nation.
The retiring food minister, Charles
A., McCurdy, gave the United Press
the following figures on commodities
handled during the whole period of
control in pounds sterling:

purchases made by, the royal wheat
commission, which amounted to an
other 1900 millions for the United
Kingdom and $50 millions for allied
and neutral countries.
