food Is rushed in and distributed
without regard to cost or rations.
Some of the typical rations now
for an individual are: Bacon, 4
ounces per week; meat of all other
kinds, 23ia cents worth per week.
cheese, 2 ounces per week; jam, 8
ounces per month; fats, 2 ounces of
cooking fat and 6 ounces of butter
or margarine per week; tea, 2
ounces per week.
Eggs aren't rationed because there
aren't enough to go around. Milk
may be rationed soon, and already
is banned from use in ice cream or
pastries.
One of the Britons was asked
whether food difficulties were teach
ing his people to make a more
scientific choice of diet. He replied:
'Oh. they are learning, but the
war will have to last devil of a
long time before they learn all there

Lease.Lend Food
Provides Britain
With Vital Margin
Milk Is No. ! on
Emergency List, Then
Cheese and Meets
BY IRVING PERLMETER.
cIaut. Csnaial NAME Enruina

The Stars Special news service
Because of lease-lend food from
America, Englishmen may get one
egg per person per week this winter.
This was given yesterday by Brit
ish sources as an example OF how
vital the lease lend program was
going to be to the nutrition Of the
besieged island.
They explained that lease-lend
food probably will be only a small
percentage of the total tonnage of
British food, but will all be of such
vital relation to nutrition as to be
almost indispensable.
Milk, both in the evaporated and
dried forms, they added, is No. / on
the lease-lend list. Cheese and all
other dairy products are next, fol-
lowed by bacon and other meat
products, then concentrated vitamin
products, vegetables and fruit Cboth
canned or dried.
Plenty of Bread.
"The bread situation in England is
lovely" one Briton said. Right now,
the typical British diet is bread,
bread, and more bread. What we
are short of is animal proteins, and
without them we should sap the
vitality of the people"
Generally lease-lend food is sold
over the counter of the ordinary
grocery store, it was also learned
1t is sold at prices fixed under
criminal penalties by the govern
ment, and at levels designed to make
them available to the poorest people
living on government doles.
Even figuring that lease-lend food
is received from America-and Eng
lishmen resent any implication that
it won't be paid for in some way
the cost of transporting the food
across the Atlantic, the cost of pay
ing for its distribution, and the
expense of selling at low prices pre-
vent any profit to the government.
British sources said the Food Minis
try's deficit was figured at $400, ,000,-
900 year.
Some Under U. S. Prices.
Sometimes these prices are lower
than in this country. All kinds of
cheese, for instance. are sold at the
same price of about 212s cents per
pound. Bacon comes at about 30ia
cents per pound, lard, Is cents: and
eggs when available at from 80 to
SIS cents a dozen, depending on grade.
About 600 communal kitchens

Red Cross 10 Provide
Recreation al IS
Army Hospitals
Will Furnish, Stoff
And Operate Buildings
For ConvoIescents

AS part of its expanded services
to the Nations armed forces, the
American Red Cross will furnish,
staff and operate hospital recreation
buildings now being constructed by
the War Department at IS Army
stations, Red Cross Chairman Nor
man H. Davis disclosed yesterday.
This project is in addition to the
$l,250,000 construction program an
nounced recently in which the Red
Cross itself is erecting headquarters
buildings at 81 Army camps
throughout the country to facilitate
Its services to Army personnel, MIR.
Davis said.
First Ready in October.
Principal aim of the new recrea-
ton buildings, Mr.. Davis explained,
will be to provide recreational serv-
ices for convalescent patients in
Army hospitals. The first of the
structures is expected to open early
in October.
The Red Cross will provide for
motion picture and stage entertain
ment. In addition it will carry on
its own program through its staff
and with the aid of volunteers from
nearby camps.
Motion pictures will be shown two
or three times a week in the the
aters of the 65 buildings, each of
which has a capacity of from 145 to
500 persons Attendance will be
free but limited to convalescent SOL
diers and other military personnel
required for their care.
Seven for Nearby Area.
Besides supplying the motion pic
ture equipment the Red Cross is
also furnishing each theater with
chairs, stage and dressing equip
ment.
There will be five types of build
ings erected. of sizes depending on
the bed capacity of the hospital to
which the particular building is at
tached. Only hospitals having more
than $50 beds, however, will have
one of the recreation buildings.
Among nearby Army camps
which will have hospital recreation
buildings are Fort Belvoir, Fort
Eustis, Fort Story and Camp Lee,
all in Virginia, and Fort Meade, the
Aberdeen Proving Ground and the
EdgeWood Arsenal, Md.

built by the British government are
selling full size meals. including
meat dishes, for about is cents.
With the exception of luxury
food such as oysters" one Britisher
related, "The size of your pocket
book doesn't change the kind or
quantity of the food you can eat.
You might pay a lot more at a
swank hotel, but you can get only
fancier cooking-not different food"
Just how much food is going to
England under lease lend is some
thing the British won't talk about,
for fear of offending either the
American Government or disturbing
American food markets.
A Gigantic Business.
But the job is so big that one of
the men connected with it said.
ITS. like studying astronomy-the
figures are so big"
It's complicated, too. One difficulty
is that the British want things that
we don't have surpluses of. They

things that we do have a lot Of
wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco, etc.
One of the odder complications is
what to do with general Americans
who want to give food for free distri-
button. Sometimes such gifts can
be accepted, but often the donors
are told that there is no way of
giving food away without discrimi-
nation. Giving it to the poor-who
already have dole money to buy
food-say the British-would only
make them eat more than anybody
else.
Free Food Follows Bombing.
Usually, the only food gwen away
is to infants, nursing r2others end

In effect, the Medical Replace

Chamber Guild
In Third Concert
By ALICE EVERSMAN.

The policy of presenting programs
different from the ordinary type was
followed by the Chamber Music
Guild at the third concert of its
series at Almas Temple last eve
ming. For this occasion. the mem
bers of the Guild String Quartet
Frank Gittelson and Alexander
Levin, violinists; Benjamin Sosner,
violist. and Marcel Ancher, cellist-
combined with the largest number
of assisting artists that have taken
part in these programs so far.
For opening number the Bach
Concerto in D minor" for two vio-
Inns and piano was played by Mr..
Gittelson and Mr.. Levin, with RENO
Luoma at the piano. The second
movement gives the greatest oppor-
tunity for a fine blending of these
three instruments. Although the
Intervening of tonal color has been
difficult for other composers to ar
rive at in many instances, Bach has
succeeded in writing a work which
has become one of the most famous
in the chamber music literature.
A vocal quartet consisting OF
Cathreen Carrico, soprano tsubsti-
tuting for the formerly announced
Florence Sindeln, Kathryn English,
contralto: Irving Chandler, tenor,
and Abrasha Robofsky, baritone, as
sisted by the string quartet. was
heard in two excerpts from Bach's
Christmas Oratorios in a transcript
tion by Luis Guzman. Mr.. Guzman
chose with All Thy Hosts" and
Hear. King of Angels" and has
arranged an admirable setting
which, while allowing rich unison
of tone by the singers, still gives
sufficient prominence to the instru-
ments in softly modulated accom-
paniment. The successful perform
ance of this work was followed by
like arrangement by Mr.. Guzman of
Adolf Torovsky's christmas Carol"
The most pretentious moment of
the program was the playing of the
Tschaikowsky sextet, Souvenir de
Florence" and the assisting artists
in this number were Sara Feldman,
violist, and Mary Hill Doolittle, cell
ist, both of Baltimore. The sextet
is not one of Tschaikowsky's most
important compositions nor does it
carry the sure flow of inspiration
that gave vitality to his other music.
The musicians gave it a studied
reading which would have been
more impressive. however. If a
greater uniformity of tonal color
could have been attained.
The crowded hall testified to the
popularity these concerts have at
tanned and the very cordial recep-
ton given each number was evil
dence of the enjoyment of the audi
ence in a program offering such q
well chosen variety.
