Defense Bread" Coming Soon

New York-A new enriched white bread. which is probably the first "all out" food-aid for national de- fense, will be offered by bakers all over the country within the next few weeks. The announcement that this bread would soon be appear ing on grocery and bake-shop shelves, was made by Dr. James A. Tobey at the recent annual Con- stimer Forum of the Advertising Women of New York
 Enriched bread. he explained, is the baking industIy's answer to gov ernment pleas for building Q high civilian morale through superior national diet. Charact6rizirg "de- fense" bread as the most important recent advance In food science, Dr. Tobey told the consumer audience that 1t will become a permanent contribution to the American table, being superior to whole wheat bread in many ways.
 The defense" loaf will be similar In taste and appearance to the pres- ent standard white bread but 1t will contain certain vitamins and miner- als that are natural to whole wheat. These will include not only vitamin Bl (thiamin), but also iron and the anti-pellagra vitamin (nicotinic acidD. Milk solids, which are now included in almost all white bread, will continue to contribute good amount of calcium and phosphorus, as well as vitamin B2. (ribofiavin) to the new enriched white loaf.
 The development of this ffew bread is the result of many months of work by members of the baking industry in collaboration with the committee on food and nutrition of the national research council and other scientific bodies.
 To the housewife, enriched bread offers an easy way to step up the daily vitamin and mineral quota of her family. Two slices of enriched white bread, at each meal, will pro- vide the normal adult with from 1-3 to 1-2 of his daily requirement. for vitamin B1, as well as substan- tial amounts of the pellagra-pre- venting vitamin and the fod-miner- als, iron and calcium. When the bread is spread with butter. a sup ply of vitamin A is also added.
