. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON .

q food administrator il will stop
a lot of disquieting .rumors and
false reports now floatin &
around on what foods are going
to be rationed, and how. Sugar
is the only commodity under
full rationing now.
SHORTAGES REPORTED
But all over this broad land
there are daily reports of local
shortages of coffee, tea, and nu-
merous items of canned goods.
Scares develop, boarding starts,
shortages are accentuated and
confusion mounts. It is to elm
mate this confusion that the
need for a national food admin
istration is being talked of more.
The flat statements of sever.
al months ago that there would
be no shortages of food are now
being seriously questioned.
The United States can grow
enough food to keep going, and
food industry leaders are loud
in their praises of the way the
Department of Agriculture un
der Secretary Claude r. Wick.
ard has moved rapidly and eff
fectively to increase all food pro-
duction goals.
Where the shortages come in
are not from lack. of planting,
breeding, harvest or slaughter Of
herd and crop. The causes are
completely indirect.
Primarily, the food professors
face the same shortages that
face all industry - lack of
manpower to gather and ship
and clean and pack and can and
dry and freeze the foods you eat.
Unless this manpower problem
can be licked next year, people
might 60 hungry.
Secondarily, there will be a
shortage of food conveniences.
There won't be the abundance
of foods in the particular con-
tainers you may have been used
to.
There will be no shortage of
beans, for instance. You will be
able to buy dried beans by the
peck or bushe.. But there won't
be as many prepared baked
beans as there used to be- There
won't be as many tin cans of
baked beans, not because of the
shortage of beans, but because
of the shortage of tin cans.
AS a substitute, there are Of
fered frozen b a k e d beans or
baked beans in glass jars. But
there won't be as many glass
jars.
MACHINERY LACKING
There is no shortage of glass,
but there is a shortage of the
special type of closing machines
necessary to handle glass jars
automatically, and there is a
further shortage of rubber rings
and closures for sealing the glass
jars and protecting their con-
tents.
Here are where your food
shortages will come in 1913
not in the foods themselves but
in their containers and the
methods of getting them to you.
Faced by this situation, the
patriotic thing for the good
housewife to do is to buy no
more canned goods than her
family can use and to buy only
as her family needs.
Rationing of canned and 9TH
err processed foods is perhaps
inevitable for 1914, maybe SOON
er, to insure a fair distribution.
Buying ahead won't help, for as
in the case with sugar, everyone
will have to declare existing
stocks on the pantry shelf in
order to get ration allowances.

of the ITO at Olympia last night
